The numbers are relatively easy to debunk as obviously silly. Somehow I doubt the LA County Sherrif keeps detailed stats on the day in which tagging occurs. I seriously doubt they have details tagging statistics at all.

Also the murder number is assinine on its face. You can't really measure that on a day by day basis. In 2005 LA County had 433 murders. Which works out to 1.19 murders per day. A 28% reduction would mean that 0.85 people were murdered on that day.

The only place on the intenret I can find this posted is on an NRO message board where it was posted and labeled an urban legend.
