Defund The Police

Good job, Democrats:

The number of homicides in six major cities across the country has increased compared to last year, disproportionately affecting black people, according to crime data.

Black people have represented a massive share of murder victims in six major cities through the first six months of 2021 compared to last year, which itself saw a large crime surge, according to data analyzed by The Daily Caller News Foundation...

Democratic leaders of most of the cities examined voted to greatly reduce police funding amid widespread Black Lives Matter protests last year. In the wake of the death of George Floyd, who died after former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin kneeled on his neck in May 2020, thousands of protests and riots took place across the country.

University of Missouri criminologist Richard Rosenfeld blamed the uptick in violence seen nationwide on the lack of trust between police and citizens, according to The New York Times.

  1. Our inner cities were created by Democrats, who have run our cities for decades.

    My home town, Milwaukee, grew up during the 20th Century to become one of the most segregated cities in the country: for about a third of that century, Socialists--actually running as Socialists on the ballot--held the mayoralty.

    It has been estimated that half of Detroit is functionally illiterate: the school system was built by liberals and Democrats: the schools systems of all our cities were build by liberals and Democrats.

    That's the world they built.

    But they really, really, really care, so it's all good.
