So, when I pointed out last year that deep-red Utah's crime is way up, wingnuts cried "but...but...Democratic mayors!1!!"
So, explain this:
ibis.health.utah.gov
We're talking about Jacksonville, Fl and their Republican mayor and Republican governor.
Try to keep up.
Moron blue cities aren't making charges for many crimes committed. So of course crime will be down.Salt Lake City, like most Republican controlled cities has seen a spike in violence and death.
The 2019 crime rate in Salt Lake City, UT is 514 (City-Data.com crime index), which is 1.9 times greater than the U.S. average

Utah had a surge of homicides and violent crime in 2020, new FBI data shows
SALT LAKE CITY (KUTV) — More Utahns were victimized by violent crimes in 2020 than any other year in the last decade, according to newly-released crime data from the FBI.
The FBI’s annual crime report shows the homicide rate in Utah was 24% above the 10-year average.
Utah’s increase in the homicide rate reflects the national trend, according to the report, which showed a 30% year-over-year increase in homicides nationwide.

Mayor`s don`t run cities, Einstein.You may have one.........and that would be doubtful depending on the reasons.......Republican mayors can be bad at their job.....democrats are not only bad at their jobs, their policies directly cause increasing crime and violence.....they attack the police to the point they can't or won't stop criminals, and then the democrats release the most violent criminals over and over again......even gun criminals.....
So you have to explain all the rest.....
In February 2022, CBS News published a report about cities with the highest homicide rate, "Murder map: Deadliest U.S. cities." Of the top 10 deadliest cities in the country, all of them are cities with Democratic mayors. Moreover, of the 65 cities on this list with the highest murder rates, the overwhelming majority had Democratic mayors. And, to quote Clinton, "that's just a fact."
----
On Nov. 4, the Heritage Foundation released a study showing that "high-crime counties are governed largely by Democrats." It revealed that of the 30 cities with the highest murder rates in the country, 27 have Democratic mayors. Furthermore, of those 27 cities, nearly half (14) have radical left-wing prosecutors funded or inspired by affluent billionaire and leftist political activist George Soros and the Open Society Foundation.
"The high murder rate is almost exclusively cabined in cities run by Democrats and with Democrat district attorneys, many of whom are Soros bought-and-paid-for rogue prosecutors or inspired by Soros, groups like the egregiously misnamed Fair and Just Prosecution and other battering rams of the movement," the authors of the study stated.
Don't believe Democrats' lies — blue cities, not red states, have the violent crime problem
=======
From poster, Toobfreak.
I chose 58 cities as that was the largest number I could fit on a page. I then went through each city one by one to look up the major of every city. Aside from the fact that you can forget finding any pattern of cities in "red" states being the most with the highest crime as the idiot Marc tries to claim, but I went down the list marking all the mayors of the highest crimes cities in America in BRIGHT RED who were DEMOCRATS.
Look at what I found:
Every city above in red is RUN BY A DEMOCRAT!
Murder map: Deadliest U.S. cities
Also.....
The No. 1 state on Third Way’s list is Mississippi. Sure enough, the statewide vote in the 2020 election was for Trump. But within the state, Hinds County residents voted for Joe Biden, 3 to 1. Mississippi’s biggest city, Jackson, is in Hinds County. You know where this is going.
Reporting on Jackson last year, CNN declared it “one of the deadliest U.S. cities.”
The mayor of Jackson is Chokwe Antar Lumumba, a Democrat. The district attorney is Jody Owens, a Democrat.
No. 2 on the list is Louisiana. Trump won that state, too. But on the more local level, he lost Orleans, the parish that contains New Orleans, the state’s most populous city. Residents there went for Biden almost 8 to 1.
“New Orleans had the highest homicide rate of any major city so far this year, with about 41 homicides per 100,000 residents.”— The Wall Street Journal, Sep. 16, 2022
The mayor of New Orleans is LaToya Cantrell, a Democrat. The district attorney is Jason Williams, also a Democrat.
No. 3 on the list is Kentucky, another red state that voted to elect Trump. But Kentucky’s biggest city Louisville is in Jefferson County and 60 percent of those voters supported Biden.
This is from Kentucky-based think tank Pegasus Institute in August: “In the last decade, the city of Louisville has seen unprecedented increases in shootings and homicides. 2020 became Louisville’s deadliest year on record, and 2021 have proven to continue that trend.” The organization reported last year that Louisville’s homicide rate was competing with the likes of Chicago and Philadelphia.
The mayor of Louisville is Greg Fischer, a Democrat. The district attorney is Thomas B. Wine. He is also a Democrat.
Next is Alabama at No. 4, another 2020 red state. But Biden won the most votes in the most populous county, also called Jefferson. He won 56 percent to Trump’s 43. Within Jefferson is the city of Birmingham, which has the third-highest murder ratein all of the U.S.
The mayor of Birmingham is Randall Woodfin. He’s a Democrat, just like the district attorney, Danny Carr.
In slot No. 5 is Missouri. Again, a Trump state. And again, with the county containing its biggest city, St. Louis, going for Biden, 61 percent to Trump’s 37. St. Louis has the fourth-highest murder rate in the country.
Mayor: Tishaura Jones, Democrat.
County prosecuting attorney: Wesley Bell, same.
No. 6 is South Carolina. Trump won that state, but Charleston County, with the city of North Charleston, went for Biden with 56 percent of the vote. North Charleston has the highest murder rate in the state.
Finally, here we have a city with a mayor, Keith Summey, from the Republican Party. The county solicitor — Charleston does not have a district attorney — is Scarlett Wilson, also a Republican.
Not that we’re keeping score, but that brings the number on this list of Republicans who might feasibly be held accountable for raging crime in their cities to a grand total of two. For Democrats, it’s so far 10.
The next two states on Third Way’s report, New Mexico and Georgia, went blue in 2020, so we’ll skip those.
No. 9 is Arkansas, which was red. But again, Pulaski County, with the state’s biggest city of Little Rock, went blue with 60 percent of voters choosing Biden. That city reportedly has one of the highest violent crime rates in the state. The mayor of Little Rock is Frank Scott, a Democrat. The county prosecutor, Larry Jegley, is a Democrat as well.
Lastly, at No. 10, is Tennessee. Another red state with a major blue county that went for Biden. That county here would be Shelby, with 64 percent of the vote going to the president. In Shelby is the city of Memphis, which, according to The New York Times, “is often ranked among the nation’s most violent cities.”
The mayor of Memphis is Jim Strickland, a Democrat. Steve Mulroy, a Democrat, is the recently-elected district attorney.
To recap, of the eight red states listed in Third Way’s report as being among the top 10 with the highest murder rate, the cities where all that murder is happening are run almost exclusively by Democrats. All but one had a Democrat mayor. And all but one had a Democrat responsible for pursuing criminal prosecutions.
The Left's Funny New Lie: It's The 'Red States' With More Crime!
You're citing a press release from the governor's office (propaganda), about a non-existent influx of illegals to the Florida Keys (the only ones who arrive there are Cubans, a protected species) to explain why Jacksonville's mayor and Florida's governor have failed in the war on crime?Enough that Desantis has activated the National guard.
Mayor`s don`t run cities, Einstein.
Keep denying the influx of illegals. You got nothing but lies yourself.You're citing a press release from the governor's office (propaganda), about a non-existent influx of illegals to the Florida Keys (the only ones who arrive there are Cubans, a protected species) to explain why Jacksonville's mayor and Florida's governor have failed in the war on crime?
Keep grasping!
Countries that have gun control are safer than countries that don`t. What is there to argue about? We don`t have border checks around at city boundaries.
So, when I pointed out last year that deep-red Utah's crime is way up, wingnuts cried "but...but...Democratic mayors!1!!"
So, explain this:
Listen up, kid. Hitler didn`t confiscate firearms. He was the most popular leader that Germany ever had.Explain this then.
In Europe, they took away guns. In 6 years, 1939-1945 they went on to murder 15 million innocent men, women and children.
In the U.S....gun murder for our entire 246 year history...about 2,460,000.....
Can you see which number is bigger and over what time period?
Please explain.
Then you can go on to explain .....
25 million murdered in Russia
Over 70 million murdered in China....
Then explain Cambodia, Rwanda, Cuba...and the last hundred years of murder in Latin and South America......
Then, you can go on to explain who it is that Americans with their legal guns save, on average, 175,000 lives a year..........
Please, we will wait.....
Lives saved....based on research? By law abiding gun owners using guns to stop criminals?

The survey was designed by Deborah Azrael of the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, and Matthew Miller of Northeastern University,
----
The survey further finds that approximately a third of gun owners (31.1%) have used a firearm to defend themselves or their property, often on more than one occasion, and it estimates that guns are used defensively by firearms owners in approximately 1.67 million incidents per year. Handguns are the most common firearm employed for self-defense (used in 65.9% of defensive incidents), and in most defensive incidents (81.9%) no shot was fired. Approximately a quarter (25.2%) of defensive incidents occurred within the gun owner's home, and approximately half (53.9%) occurred outside their home, but on their property. About one out of ten (9.1%) defensive gun uses occurred in public, and about one out of twenty (4.8%) occurred at work.

Applying those restrictions leaves 19 NSPOF respondents (0.8 percent of the sample), representing 1.5 million defensive users. This estimate is directly comparable to the well-known estimate of Kleck and Gertz, shown in the last column of exhibit 7. While the NSPOF estimate is smaller, it is statistically plausible that the difference is due to sampling error. Inclusion of multiple DGUs reported by half of the 19 NSPOF respondents increases the estimate to 4.7 million DGUs.
n the third column of Table 6.2, we apply the Kleck and Gertz (1995) criteria for "genuine" DGUs (type A), leaving us with just 19 respondents. They represent 1.5 million defensive users.

As shown in Table 6.6, the defender fired his or her gun in 27 percent of these incidents (combined "fire warning shots" and "fire at perpetrator" percentages, though some respondents reported firing both warning shots and airning at the perpetrator). Forty percent of these were "warning shots," and about a third were aimed at the perpetrator but missed. The perpetrator was wounded by the crime victim in eight percent of all DGUs. In nine percent of DGUs the victim captured and held the perpetrator at gunpoint until the police could arrive.

Yes, that is strange.Funny both Vegas / Phoenix are 2 of the few cities with zero increases
I do find it strange that Utah all of a sudden is experiencing a crime wave.Racist much?
Listen up, kid. Hitler didn`t confiscate firearms. He was the most popular leader that Germany ever had.
German firearms legislation, under Hitler, far from banning private ownership, actually facilitated the keeping and bearing of arms by German citizens by eliminating or ameliorating restrictive laws that had been enacted by the prior administration. Do you now feel like a boob for spending decades lying about history and making dumb people dumber? You should be ashamed of yourself.

It is, but the reason why is false.The OP title is correct.
