Between 1991 and 2022, Florida, Connecticut, and Illinois led the country by slashing their violent crime rates by over 70%. This starkly contrasted with states like Montana, South Dakota, and North Dakota, where violent crime rates increased significantly over the same time frame.
Florida legalized concealed carry in 1987. In 1996 it ranked among the highest in the nation for violent crime.
Correlation does not equate to causation. There may be many factors affecting crime rates, like the ban on leaded fuels (decreases in crime 20 years after the ban) and the crack cocaine use (increases during peak popularity).
What year did Florida stop using decals to identify rental cars that made them easy targets for the 13% of the population that commits 50% of the crime?
1993. Your point?

License Plates: In 1991, Florida stopped printing the word "lease" and began using "Y" or "Z" identifiers . Following a string of crimes against tourists, the state banned these identifying license tags altogether in May 1993 .
Company Decals: Major rental companies like Alamo, Budget, and Hertz voluntarily stripped company logos, decals, and bumper stickers from their Florida cars in 1991

You usually have a point. Sometimes not well conceived. BTW, a quick google has such information at your fingertips, literally. Wind your own fucking neck in.

I merely asked a fucking question & as you'd posted a bunch of seemingly relevant facts, I thought you might have a clue. I didn't think a question would cause you such distress.

I just love how a total stranger a couple thousand miles away thinks he can tell another person's mood by a two word post. You do often come across as the forum polemic, quick to make accusations and toss out remarks like "wind your fucking neck in" followed by having a strop when the same is chucked back at you.
Happy 4th!
