Given the task definition and input, reply with output. In this task, you are given a public comment from online platforms. You are expected to classify the comment into two classes: obscene and non-obscene. A comment is obscene if it is considered offensive to the public sense of decency, for example because it too obviously relates to sex or contains language regarded as taboo in polite usage.

Comment: "....The fact that we have a crisis of thousands of murdered and missing indigenous women and girls in a country like Canada suggests that state-based racism, violence and neglect continue today..."

Actually, I believe the number is just over 1,000 in total since the mid 1970's, and it pretty much matches the general levels of missing/murdered to society as a whole over the entire period.

This came from a G&M article within the last year. The solve rate at 90% is almost identical, as is the 80%+ rate of the victim knowing/being related to the perp factor.

It only seems like a crisis because :

1. When you have relatively "small" numbers, (1,000 / 40 years + 25 per year) they are likely to come in "clumps", and thus look large

2. They also tend to be large for a given community. If there are 2 from a band of 300 in a single year, it has "oversize" implications...

Note: this is not to diminish any of these cases, or demean the loss to either the families, or community.
