I'm not sure you can fully escape it. Non-liberal areas are getting hit with problems lately too. Law enforcement is lax everywhere it seems. Bail reform has been terrible for communities. The mask mandates are causing some types of people to come out of the woodwork and cause problems and unrest.

No one should be in relax mode right now regardless of where you live.

Houston had a massive increase post COVID and weeks of not months before George Floyd so I think he has an argument, especially because the billion dollar cut only happened like last week and the physical effects aren’t shown yet although the moral effects are likely already showing.
