failed policies or just have a biased view. There is definitely a couple reasons for the increase in crime and it started in summer 2020. Police were demonized by the left after Floyd with the whole defund the police bs and because of such, have really stepped back out of fear of losing their job or quit the force because of the nonsense. We now have far left DA's (and in some cases, Soros funded) going soft on crime. These policies are releasing criminals back into the streets too soon in certain instances. It's simple, there is no real deterrent anymore for criminals. Go talk with a Philly or NYC police officer. They will make an arrest and the person laughs and says they will be back out in a few hours..........which they are. The Dems very hardly speak out about the rise in crime because it would be admitting their policies failed or suck and the media covers up for them by rarely reporting on it. Remember all the "mostly peaceful" protests in summer 2020? Billions of dollars in damage. Thousands of police officers injured. I can remember a jackass CNN reporter saying "mostly peaceful protest" as a building was burning down behind him. It's a disgrace and will only keep getting worse until the country gets tough on crime and there's a real deterrent. Where you aren't fair is that you will only give Dem talking points or find some left opinion article to support your argument. To me, this shouldn't even be a partisan issue. Nobody wants to live in a country where there's no law and order. Philly the other week has had over 1,200 car jackings this year alone already. But you keep defending the bad guy as if they are the victim and will refuse to admit that bad policies have contributed to the problem.
