All for it it's not 1990.

You're right, violent crime rates have been declining since the 1990s.

Um. Really

Yes, really.

Both the FBI and BJS data show a substantial decline in the violent crime rate since its peak in the early 1990s.

Using the FBI numbers, the rate fell 50% between 1993 and 2015, the most recent full year available. Using the BJS data, the rate fell by 77% during that span.

Not including bombing attacks though.
