Deadly Defund 2021

January 4, 2022

So how’s that defund-the-police thing working out?

Cities across the country , from Portland, Ore. to Rochester, N.Y., set homicide records in 2021.

Chicago recorded nearly 800 murders, the most of any U.S. city. Milwaukee for the second year in a row broke its homicide record — with 197 people killed.

You can chalk up much of the soaring violence to pandemic lockdowns and the Defund the Police movement.
