Ringo: “Which wallet is yours?”
Jules: "It’s the one that says ‘Bad Motherfucker’ ".
From “Pulp Fiction”, by Quentin Tarantino, 1994
(Samuel L. Jackson, as Jules, with “Bad Motherfucker” wallet, from “Pulp Fiction”, by Quentin Tarentino, 1994. Can you see how he’s holding the wallet in his left hand, and how the image is off-center to the left, to focus attention on his left eye? That’s because, to followers of the Left-hand path like Samuel L. Jackson and Quentin Tarantino, the left eye is the “eye of Will”, or “the eye of Horus”.)
THE DATA
From 2016 to 2019, the homicide rate in Brazil decreased by 24%, from 30.59 per 100,000 to 23.3 per 100,000. While the Brazilian Report said that the homicide rate in Brazil “remain high”.
I have exposed the duplicity of the Brazilian Report by using what was known in the old days as “fact checking”.
In 2016, the homicide rate in Brazil was 30.59 per 100,000.
From 2018 to 2022, the homicide rate in Mexico decreased by 15.5%, from 29.58 per 100,000 to 25 per 100,000.
From 2018 to 2022, the homicide rate in Mexico decreased by an annual average of 3.9%.
From 2018 to 2021, the homicide rate in Mexico decreased by 5.3%, from 29.58 per 100,000 to 28 per 100,000.
In 2018, the homicide rate in Mexico was 29.58 per 100,000.
From 2021 to 2022, Mexico’s homicide rate decreased by 10.7%, from 28 per 100,000 to 25 per 100,000. ABC News did what little they could to hedge by fraudulently cutting the decrease by 9.3%, from 10.7% to 9.7%.
President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said it was because of his “hugs not bullets” policy of avoiding open confrontation with drug cartels, while funding training and scholarship programs for youths.
From 2021 to 2022, the 10.7% decrease in homicides in Mexico was 174% greater, or almost triple the 3.9% average annual decrease in homicides there from 2018 to 2022.
The homicide rate in Mexico in decreasing hyper-exponentially, going forward in time. While ABC News said in comment that Mexico’s homicide rate “appears to flatline in 2023.”
I have exposed the duplicity of ABC News by using what was known in the old days as “fact checking”.
In 2021, the homicide rate in Mexico was 28 per 100,000.
In 2022, the homicide rate in Mexico was 25 per 100,000.
In 2023, the homicide rate in Brazil was 23.3 per 100,000.
In 2023, the homicide rate in Brazil was 28.3 per 100,000.
From January through July 2023, shootings in New York City decreased by 26.5%, Year-over-Year.
In the first half of 2023, homicides in 30 major U.S. cities decreased by 10%. Reporting in The Atlantic, crime data researcher Jeff Asher has called it one of the largest annual decreases in murder ever recorded.
Where “recorded” gives the subconscious of the Coincidence theorist reader the green light to say “oh, but someone must have recorded that incorrectly!”
The propagandist knows that many or most readers will grasp virtually any straw, no matter how thin, to remain off the hook of personal responsibility.
In July 2023, homicides in New York City decreased by 35.3%, Year-over-Year.
In July 2023, shootings in New York City decreased by 35.4%, Year-over-Year.
THE STORIES
On July 23, 2023, the New York Times said “Survey of 30 U.S. Cities Shows Nearly 10 Percent Drop in Homicides in 2023”.
On July 25, 2023, ABC News said “Mexico’s homicide rate dropped in 2022, but appears to flatline in 2023, official figures show”.
Where the author used “homicide rate dropped” because it’s general. As a propagandist, the uncredited author knows that, since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, the hedging generality goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” awareness of the exponential rate of the decrease in homicides which I am documenting here.
For those unaware, anytime an author is uncredited, it is proof that said author is an Intelligence operative.
The article goes on to say “Mexico’s National Statistics Institute said there were 32,223 killings in 2022, 9.7% less than in 2021. The country’s homicide rate per 100,000 inhabitants dropped from about 28 in 2021 to 25 in 2022.”
I had to do the math to learn that, from 2021 to 2022, Mexico’s homicide rate decreased by 10.7%, from 28 per 100,000 to 25 per 100,000. ABC News did what little they could to hedge by fraudulently cutting the decrease by 9.3%, from 10.7% to 9.7%.
The article goes on to say "President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, who has struggled persistently with high homicide rates since he took office in December 2018, said the decline represented the results of his “hugs not bullets” policy of avoiding open confrontation with drug cartels, while funding training and scholarship programs for youths.
Where “official figures show” gives the subconscious of the Coincidence theorist reader the green light to say “oh, but they can make those official figures show anything.”
The propagandist knows that many or most readers will grasp virtually any straw, no matter how thin, to remain off the hook of personal responsibility.
On August 3, 2023, nyc.gov said “For the month of July 2023, New York City saw a 35.4% drop in shooting incidents compared to July 2022 (113 v. 175). The decrease in shootings extends the 26.5% decrease in shooting incidents citywide through the first seven months of calendar 2023 compared to the same period a year ago (596 v. 811) – meaning 274 fewer people have been shot this year compared to last year. Additionally, homicides fell by 35.3% (33 v. 51) for the month of July 2023.”
From January through July 2023, shootings in New York City decreased by 26.5%, Year-over-Year.
In July 2023, homicides in New York City decreased by 35.3%, Year-over-Year.
In July 2023, shootings in New York City decreased by 35.4%, Year-over-Year.
On August 17, 2023, The Brazilian Report said “Homicide rate continues to decrease in Brazil, but remains high”. When, in fact, the homicide rate in Brazil decreased by 24% from 2016 to 2023, from 30.59 per 100,000 to 23.3 per 100,000.
Obviously, a homicide rate which decreased by over 20% in the past seven years cannot be accurately described as “remaining high”. I have exposed the duplicity of the Brazilian Report by using what was known in the old days as “fact checking”.
