Yes, you can, and you should. The fact that homicides increased in other cities (a lot, but not all!) doesn't make it OK for it to happen in any given city. Crime is always local, and local policies affect it. Stop apologizing for murderers.

No. I am saying that national trends still don't excuse bad local policies.

So then how are you substantiating the local policies being bad?
