In truth murder rates have decreased since 1991 and as of 2015 is a lower murder rate than 1960.
1960 population = 179,323,175 murders= 9,110 murders per 100,000 = 51
1991 population = 252,177,000 murders= 24,700 murders per 100,000 = 98
2015 population = 321,418,820 murders= 15,696 murders per 100,000 = 49
Not that we should be satisfied, since our murder rate is much higher than most all other countries (especially well developed countries)
