Dems seem to be awfully in touch with all the ‘damage’ Trump has caused in America.
I’ve been searching for threads/posts where these same Dems whom are so vocal and connected to America’s issues have discussed the root cause of the chaos, violence, hate and anarchy in Minneapolis, Seattle, Portland and the cities and states mentioned in the title.
I’ve yet to find anything so I ask; Dems, could it be Dem policy and Dem ideologies lying at the root of all the disorder and madness?
Chicago was never nice, at least not in living memory
NY is nicer than it's ever been because they pushed all the poorer* people out
Cops take the credit but that's not what it was....They just priced out most of the poor people in NYC proper
And there is just the general movement towards non violence for humanity no matter how poor you are. Violence rates been dropping for generations all over the planet.
NYPD Announces Citywide Crime Statistics for June 2020
Don't ya just hate when all those rich folk take up a life of crime.

- There were 205 citywide shooting incidents in June 2020, compared to 89 shooting incidents in June 2019, a 130.3% increase. Year-to-date, through June 30, there is a +46% spike in citywide shooting incidents (528 v. 362).
- Burglary increased +118.2% (1,783 v. 817) in June and is up +46.3% (7,234 v. 4,943) year-to-date through June 30.
Yea and we have the rona
Which makes your correlation useless
As crime stats almost always are when pigs hold them up. THey didn't fix NYC
NYC just got richer over the last few decades per capita, by a lot. Now it's poorer and there is more crime, this is exactly what you would expect when standard of living goes down. Not to mention the weird social dynamics of quarantine
Cops can prevent crime, just not within what most of us would consider rational schemes to do so.
For example stop and frisk, yea it probably reduced crime an observable amount in the neighborhoods they used it in, and yea it was orwellian as fuck
Wait, did I read that wrong, didn't you say...
NY is nicer than it's ever been because they pushed all the poorer* people out
yea i'm not some hippy
what sane person would deny that?
Richer people commit less crime, especially violent crime. Shocker.
When you see row houses getting turned into condos know it wasn't the cops that reduced the crime rates. It was the real estate developers.
