Not saying you're wrong because I genuinely have no clue, but are you saying this based on data? Is there a source for AR crime data that is easily accessible?

When I lived in NYC I would look at that stuff sometimes, it was easy to find

Then why is Fayetteville the only city in NWA that has to offer bonuses?

You can pretend it didn't happen, but Fay PD definitely lost several officers after the BLM nonsense that played out courtesy of Petty and Kyle Smith.

The Fayetteville FOP even discussed it on their social media. People left the Fayetteville PD specifically because of that "no confidence" action that was implied by the whole mess.

Anyway, happy Petty is gone. He talked so much about diversity, yet he and wifey live in maybe the whitest neighborhood in the state outside of Harrison, adjacent to the Fayetteville historic district, full of rich people in expensive old homes.

Just another nutjob Leftwing whiteboy who has never lived anywhere but white enclaves, and obviously never will, by choice. So everybody else has to be called racist.

Violent crime is worse in Fayetteville per capita than it is in Springdale or Rogers. Being scared of brown people doesn't equal higher crime.

That’s a snapshot in time, but you said it’s at all time highs, so need historical numbers. How do you know that crime wasn’t higher 10 years ago (just for argument’s sake)?

Again, I’m not saying you’re wrong. I'm just asking whether you have the data or not.

Edit: According to that website (neighborhoodscout) the likelihood of being a victim of violent crime is lower in Springdale than compared to the rest of the state.

Show me data, but not that data because I don’t like that.

That data doesn’t back up the specific claim that he made, that’s the problem

I don’t have stats, I just know the homeless population is bad. Used to never see murders, now they are happening in Fayetteville. And according to cop friends they are dealing with unprecedented theft for the area.

Talked to a guy who owned the land on the other side of Lowes heading out to Farmington, and he was having to clear out the land. The homeless camp there having rapes constantly, but what made the city make him clear it out was a murder. He was just going to clear cut it so they couldn’t hide in the scrub brush and small trees. Said they had stolen pallets for flooring and took tarps given by the churches and made a tent with a burn pit in the middle. Just so they could do drugs, one couple had a baby in the middle of all that. But when he went to clear cut it the city wouldn’t let him they wanted him to pay for a tree study. So the homeless camp just got rebuilt. Also one behind goodwill and the Chinese buffet.

I have a friend that is a cop in chickendale.
He's taking early retirement because the crime is so violent.
Call him a pussy or whatever, he still has kids to raise.

Sorry the Google machine didn't pull up the numbers you're wanting to see baw.

Okay thanks, was legit just wondering if it was anecdotal or if you had seen the actual numbers. I might try to look for them sometime later if I get a chance, if I find them I will share

then why did you also say Rogers?


Rogers is not like that


Latino people in Rogers believe in God, family and hard work

The darkest box on that graph on the right is in Lowell. Also, all of west Springdale is omitted from the Springdale graphic. Bet Har-Ber Meadows' inclusion would bring the averages down a bit

This data is shite

Another thing is that according to that website, Springdale's violent crime rate is similar to places like Conway and Russellville.

Jonesboro and Searcy have higher rates... I don't think of those towns as being particularly dangerous.

According to that site, Springdale is below the state average for violent crime. So doesn't make much sense to single it out
