Boulder dash!
The violent crime rate in America as a whole and in almost all localities has been on the decline for YEARS, probably decades.
Comparing American cities to combat zones is ludicrous.
Even in places with higher than average violence the majority is criminal on criminal and very often drug or gang related.
Obviously, things happen, but "becoming grim" and "combat zone" is beyond exaggeration.
