At Tangle: Debate Over Whether Crime is Getting Better or Worse

Sep 29, 2024 | Talk

Tangle conducted individual interviews with the left wing Brennan Center’s Ames Grawert, The Manhattan Institutes’ Robert VerBruggen, and CPRC’s Dr. John Lott on the issue of whether crime is increasing. It would have been much more useful if everyone was in the same discussion so that Dr. Lott could respond directly to Grawert’s claims.
