Comment on The United States Is Still Under-Policed and Over-Imprisonedparent

It correlates with access to abortion interestingly. Of which blacks use it the most.

I know this was made popular by freakonomics but it has since been disproven. Crime rates dropped in other countries that didn't have Roe v Wade and the data better fits the hypothesis that the drop in crime was caused by the banning of leaded gasoline.

Interesting! Thanks for this comment and update.
