Violent crime in these cities is mostly coming from blacks — both the victims and the criminals —in these cities blacks are higher than the normal 13% of population, and democrats REFUSE to address the black crime rate.
Dems tell us that Black Lives Matter, but then call you a racist if you try to address this tragic situation with blacks.
I think it’s racist NOT to address this.

If we bring this up publicly, what do you think will happen?
Republicans take some of that donation money and start running candidates that are not afraid to engage the local people or challenge local politicians. Not sure how Republicans expect to win an election within these cities if you don't actually try to win and put real effort into it beyond one election cycle. That is if you want to win and promote the changes Republicans say are needed versus just complaining online or on TV.
Republican canvassers need to hit the streets and start talking to people, and you need a sustained effort. If you can pursue Abortion for 50 years then you can give Baltimore a 10-year push for change right?
Absolutely not.
Look at NY.
They had their chance and blew it.
They voted in another complete dumbass.
yep.
Look at Chicago, probably has the worst mayor in the US (and that's saying something!). They voted in Lightfoot and when she's replaced, it will be with another woke marxist democrat. Chicago has calculated that as long as all the murders largely occur in the Southside and Westside, it can still prosper with new shiny buildings in the Loop and Northside.
This always makes me wonder why Republicans can never take control of the economic engines of the states. It's fascinating. Here in red South Carolina, the two biggest cities are blue. I wonder why? Why can't the Republicans who control the state control the cities?
And sure the big blue cities like New York la Boston Chicago Philadelphia have the worst rates of crime and poverty and homelessness but is it because they are blue or is it because of the size of the cities and what that brings? Since we have no ability to compare a republican city of the same size we have no way of knowing whether or not it's because of democrat policies or is it because of once you get into cities of that size you are going to have higher rates of crime poverty and homelessness. Sure we can make all kinds of theories about what we think and feel but we don't know

Good question.
I’ve often felt it’s because a state’s largest cities are where the universities, colleges, and large minority populations are. These and all their employees lean heavily blue as voters.

So why are Dems creating environments that can only fail?
ALL 15 Mayors are Democrats. Dem prosecutors, Dem city councils, Dem schools...not a Republican leader in sight for decades, in most of them.
They ranked the deadliest 31 cities of population 200,000+, but I only looked at the top 15. Maybe somebody out there will review the next 16, to see if any are Pub-run.
It's mostly Dems killing Dems in Dem-controlled cities, but most are still Americans, & most are young, so it makes me
Why would anyone vote Dem in a big city, knowing these results? Come Nov, will they be able to discount the media propaganda, & vote Pub?
It is literally a life or death decision, & personal safety is a top voting issue. "What the heck do they have to lose"?
Love them or hate them, Guiliani & Keric turned NYC around on their watch...indisputable. Not every Pub succeeds, but nearly every Dem fails.
It's interesting, and an awfully big coincidence. It amazes me how many fail to see the correlation.
