WHY?

The latest crime figures for 2008 have been

released by the FBI. They show that crime is

down. Most had argued in the past that high

unemployment, unfulfilled needs and wants,

would add up to higher crime levels. This

raises some interesting points to consider.

1) Are the proliferation of security systems

and cameras causing would-be criminals to

decide risks outweigh benefits?

2) Are neighborhood watch groups and other

community policing tactics paying off?

3) Can you think of a reason for this happening?
