Even for Brazil, even for the most dangerous cities, that's still an insane number of kidnappings. They happen enough that you need to be aware and be careful to not be an easy target, but it's still a rare event overall.","comments":[],"comments_count":0,"level":1,"url":"item?id=49071974"},{"id":49068391,"user":"hammock","time":1785153798,"time_ago":"7 hours ago","type":"comment","content":"

Carjackings ramped up in 2021 through 2024. They appear to be headed back down the "low and steady" of the early 00s. Looking at the numbers, DC isn't alone in this trend - Chicago was pretty bad as well.","comments":[{"id":49070075,"user":"cestith","time":1785161911,"time_ago":"5 hours ago","type":"comment","content":"

Gee… A lot of people lost their jobs at once and crime went up? Then when the economy recovered crime went down? It’s almost like keeping people educated and employed actually does work better than more police and longer sentences.","comments":[{"id":49070899,"user":"datadrivenangel","time":1785165479,"time_ago":"4 hours ago","type":"comment","content":"
