American carnage is everywhere. Trumpers here keep saying so.

Detroit is close to recording its fewest number of yearly homicides in nearly 60 years, according to a gun violence reduction partnership among city, state and county officials who announced the data on Monday.

As of Nov. 30, the city had recorded 228 homicides this year, an 18% drop compared to the 276 homicides during the same time last year. In 2018, Detroit recorded 261 homicides, the city's fewest since 1966, a year prior to the Detroit riot in 1967.

Compared to this time last year:

Total nonfatal shootings in Detroit are down 13%.

Carjackings in Detroit are down 36%.

Oh, the horror.
