Okay so is that “no basis”?

There were 103 murders in DC in 2013 and 221 in 2021. That’s over double in 9 years. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_Washington,_D.C.

So I guess we accept you were wrong at this stage?

I’d check those numbers again buddy. And how many of those cities also had declining numbers of police officers?
