Crime in Utah is Way Up

[Synthaholic]

So, when I pointed out last year that deep-red Utah's crime is way up, wingnuts cried "but...but...Democratic mayors!1!!"

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:

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!

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!

 

[Synthaholic]

Easy, it's just another lie.

What's another lie?

Lol, classic leftist pretend babble.

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:

A major factor across the country?

The democrat party war on the police.....their attacks on police stretch across the country and have created the "Ferguson Effect," where police will not do pro-active police work, the kind of law enforcement that keeps murder rates low........

On the Theo Vonn Podcast he interviewed a retired L.A. police officer, on the job 30 years....they spoke about the environement and how a police chief friend of the guest told his officers to do only what they have to do...do not go beyond that for fear of the democrats and leftists destroying their lives...

The disease of leftist democrats destroying the police goes beyond democrat party controlled cities...they have a national reach, and any incident, anywhere in the country can destroy the life of a good police officer if they decide to go after them....and the police are no longer putting their necks, their lives, their pensions, their freedom and their families welfare on the line.......

You dipshit.

So, explain this:

How many illegals have come in to that city? Any numbers?

 

[Synthaholic]

Lol, classic leftist pretend babble.

I'm asking you what is the lie. You think the local Jax news station is lying? Wouldn't they be immediately called out and discredited by the Republican Mayor and Sheriff?

So, explain this:

And now......please tell us the majority of the murder victims, and their killers...their age, sex and race......that will go a long way to helping see what the problem is....

We will wait for your links....

So, you have nothing other than desperate attempts to blame Democrats for Republican failures. I'm shocked!

Here...one of the killers...

Buk Mawut Buk, 22, was booked into the Salt Lake County Jail for investigation of aggravated murder, attempted murder and discharge of a firearm.
----
At one point, just before 12:30 a.m., witnesses observed Buk "approach another person at the party, say something to him in a low voice, and then retrieve a pistol from the person's shoulder bag," the affidavit states.

Buk then walked down the driveway and across the street before firing two or three shots at Lowe and a 20-year-old woman whom Lowe was with, according to police.

"Witnesses then observed Buk walk up to the victims and shoot them five or six more times while they were on the ground," the affidavit states. The woman later told police that Buk was trying to "finish them off,"

We can blame Democrats for the influx of illegals. Now where are the stats on the crimes. Who are the criminals?
