[QUOTE="Michael Brown, post: 172366, member: 18"] This is classic manipulation fo the UCR. Not by Mons Meg, but by the Department of Justice. For instance now if a juvenile is arrested for a violent crime it may not get classified as a "violent crime" because the juvenile doesn't get reverse-certified. They also don't classify simple assault or assault and battery as violent crimes because of differing statutes. Personally if my teeth get knocked out, I call it a violent crime but the DOJ doesn't. They have also changed the standard for aggravated assault based on the type i.e. with a weapon vs disparate abilities. They also don't classify the felony possession of a weapon charges as violent crimes despite the fact that in the vast majority of states this charge usually relates to possession during an act. The standards have changed over the years because if it were the same, the public would be calling for law enforcement administrations' heads on a platter and politicians just can't have that. The W's and Clintons of the world like to tell us they're reducing the crime rate but I'm here to say it ain't so. Michael Brown [/QUOTE]
