A lot of the murder decline over the last 60 years is fake. Improved trauma care means people don't die from wounds that were lethal not long ago. The violent assault rate has not actually gone down that much.

If that is true WHY is there such a serious decline from 1980s and early 1990s to today in the States?

Also why is there tremendous amount of police killings in the 1920s-1930s is so far above from what they were in the 1950s, 2000s+?
