On Crime - The Unspoken Issue (Josh Marshall) from Talking Points Memo
"... the one critical factor that simply doesn't get mentioned enough is the historic drop in crimes of all kinds over the last 20 years. It is nothing less than the end of the late 20th century crime wave which began in the early 1960s and lasted between 35 and 40 years, depending on where you're talking about and just how you want to define it. As I've written at some length, the late 20th century crime wave was probably one of the two or three biggest drivers or cultural and political change in the late 20th century."
