Original Note:
The Tweet makes a false equivalence when making a per 1000 comparison as MTG's district has a population of only 737,000 while NYC has a population of 8.4 million. Such comparison puts a much greater weight on the lower populated areas. https://www.city-data.com/crime/crime-New-York-New-York.html#:~:text=The%202020%20crime%20rate%20in%20New%20York%2C%20NY,-%20an%20increase%20of%20149%20compared%20to%202019. https://gbi.georgia.gov/services/crime-statistics https://www.fbi.gov/how-we-can-help-you/more-fbi-services-and-information/ucr
