Violent crimes unexpectedly jumped 18 percent last year, the first rise in nearly 20 years, and property crimes rose for first time in a decade.
The U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics reported Wednesday that the increase in the number of violent crimes was the result of an upward swing in simple assaults, which rose 22 percent, from 4 million in 2010 to 5 million last year. The incidence of rape, sexual assault and robbery remained largely unchanged, as did serious violent crime involving weapons or injury.
Property crimes were up 11 percent in 2011, from 15.4 million in 2010 to 17 million, according to the bureau's annual national crime victimization survey. Household burglaries rose 14 percent, from 3.2 million to 3.6 million. The number of thefts jumped by 10 percent, from 11.6 million to 12.8 million.
... Historically, less than half of all crimes, including violent crimes, are reported to police.I PREDICTED THIS:
MAY 14, 2009: CRIME WAVE COMING: FORMER DRUG DEALER OBAMA TO LOOSEN UP ENFORCEMENT OF DRUG LAWS: (EXCERPT)
MARK MY WORDS: OBAMA WILL GIVE US A CRIME WAVE.JULY 13, 2009:
SINCE OBAMA ELECTED, COPS KILLED ON DUTY UP BY 20%!
USA TODAY: Officer deaths up in first half of '09
WE PREDICTED AN OBAMA CRIME WAVE, AND WE ARGUE THIS IS THE FIRST INDICATOR.
And this doesn't even take into account the crimes perped by the Democrats in Congress!JULY 27, 2009: MORE SIGNS THE OBAMA CRIME WAVE HAS BEGUN: 16 SHOT IN BALTIMORE IN ONE DAY: (EXCERPT)
HOW DID WE KNOW THIS WOULD HAPPEN?
SIMPLE:
WHETHER IN FOREIGN POLICY OR DOMESTIC AFFAIRS, APPEASEMENT ONLY INVITES MORE BAD BEHAVIOR.
AND OBAMA AND THE LEFT ARE APPEASERS.
THEY AVE FOR DECADES LOVED TO MAKE EXCUSES FOR CRIMINAL - BY BLAMING SOCIETY AND NOT THE PERPS.
MORE ON THAT HERE. EXCERPTS:
THAT'S RIGHT: LIBERAL POLICIES AND LIBERAL LEADERS MAKE CRIME GO UP...
And there you have the problem in a nutshell. The black family survived slavery, the Civil War, Reconstruction, Jim Crow, World Wars I & II, and the Depression. But the black family could not survive the liberal wrecking ball of the Great Society programs that facilitated illegitimacy and idleness.
A once proud community of men and women whose seemingly infinite capacity for backbreaking work made them sought-after by industrial employers in the Northern cities, has been reduced to dependency by liberal politicians who created a socialistic plantation where docile, reliable Democratic voters were used to perpetuate their own helplessness. And reduced to a condition of tolerating the crime and mayhem that is tearing it apart.
Such is the America that socialistic liberals wish for us all.

OBAMA WANTS TO CHICAGO-IZE THE USA - AND CHICAGO, LIKE BALTIMORE, HAS A HORRIBLE MURDER RATE AND RAMPANT CRIME. AND CHICAGO AND BALTIMORE ARE DEMOCRAT RUN CITIES. THAT'S NO MERE COINCIDENCE.
... The liberals have handcuffed the police. Race-mongers [LIKE GATES AND SHARPTON AND JACKSON AND WRIGHT] intimidate the law-abiding with the bluster and buffoonery of an Al Sharpton, and the smooth sophistry of a Professor Loury.
... inner city black communities have come to tolerate a level of lawlessness which the hard-working, church-going, family-raising black men and women who migrated from the deep South would never have allowed.JULY 29. 2009: WHEN YOU SEND A MESSAGE THAT CRIMINALS WILL BE APPEASED - AND THAT IT'S OKAY TO BREAK THE LAW, THEN YOU ENCOURAGE MORE CRIME
AND AS RECENTLY AS JUNE 25, 2012:
THE BROKEN WINDOW THEORY AND OBAMA'S REFUSAL TO ENFORCE IMMIGRATION LAWS:
HOW DOES THIS RELATE TO OBAMA'S REFUSAL TO ENFORCE IMMIGRATION LAWS?
OBAMA HAS MADE TWO DECISIONS THAT IN EFFECT "BREAK THE WINDOWS".
FIRST, VIA EXECUTIVE FIAT OBAMA EXCLUDED ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS WHO CAME HERE AS MINORS FROM THE LAW.
SECOND, VIA THE DHS ANNOUNCEMENT THAT THEY WILL ONLY ACCEPT CUSTODY OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS ARRESTED IN ARIZONA IF THEY HAVE COMMITTED A FELONY.
DETAILS:
The Department of Homeland Security has announced that they are discontinuing agreements made with Arizona police to enforce federal immigration laws. In other words, they pouted, stomped their feet, took their ball and went home.
Via Fronteras (h/t Gateway Pundit):
Further, DHS has issued a directive telling federal authorities to decline many of the calls reporting illegal immigrants that the Homeland Security Department may get from Arizona police.
Read that again.
HOMELAND SECURITY will be IGNORING PHONE CALLS regarding individuals who are IN OUR COUNTRY ILLEGALLY. Doesn't that defy the very definition of 'homeland security'?
THIS WILL LEAD TO A SURGE IN CRIME FOR TWO REASONS:
FIRST, IT LET'S LAWBREAKERS WALK AROUND WITH IMPUNITY - AND MANY OF THEM WILL GO ON TO COMMIT OTHER CRIMES, LIKE GETTING A JOB USING FALSE ID'S, VOTING WITH FALSE ID'S, ASSISTING OTHER ILLEGALS GET FALSE ID'S, AND SO ON.
MANY WILL ALSO COMMIT FELONIES, AND OBAMA WILL ONLY DEAL WITH THEM AFTER THEY HAVE COMMITTED THE MORE SERIOUS OFFENSE.
SECOND; OBAMA'S OPEN DEEP DISRESPECT FOR THE RULE OF LAW SENDS A SIGNAL AND WILL BE CONTAGIOUS. AND THAT'S DANGEROUS.
The Department of Homeland Security is suspending the program it uses to deputize local, county and state law enforcement officers in Arizona so they can double up as immigration agents.The move affects only Arizona and it was made in direct reaction to the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling on Monday regarding Arizona’s controversial immigration laws.
