They’ll ignore violence committed by citizens against other citizens because that’s just not an issue to them. If they admit there’s a real violent crime problem, then they’ll have to acknowledge that armed and trained law enforcement is the solution instead of the unarmed social justice officers they want to replace cops.

Conservative commentator Robby Starbuck shared a graphic the #DefundPolice crowd doesn’t want you to see:

Why have we spent far more time talking about police involved shootings instead of gangs? The disproportionate focus is insane. Politicians never talk about a plan to eradicate gangs when clearly they need to. The media assists them in avoiding this very needed conversation. Why?

Call me crazy but if I’d be insane enough to live in Chicago, I wouldn’t be worried about cops. I’d be worried about a lack of cops.

Republicans have been able to keep control outside of the metro areas and even in most of the metros the gab between blue and red is smaller than most other big cities.

The exception has been Austin which models itself more after San Francisco and Los Angeles than Dallas or Houston. The city was among those leading the charge during 2020’s big #DefundPolice movement and the results have been bad. They’re about to get worse. According to Fox News:

Austin police officers past and present are warning Fox News Digital that the Texas capital’s police force critically depleted as a result of defunding in 2020 is on the verge of losing another wave of officers in response to a breakdown between the city and the police on a new contract.

An Austin Police Department source told Fox News Digital this week that 40 officers have filed their retirement papers following a 9-2 city council vote a few weeks ago to scrap a four-year contract that the city had previously agreed to in principle and instead pursue a 1-year contract that the police union’s board has rejected.

That move is believed by many to be due to intense pressure from anti-police activists in the city who look to hold off a long term deal until after voters decide on competing ballot initiatives dealing with “police oversight” that go before voters in May.

“It’s my opinion that the radicals and activists in the city have such a grip on our elected officials that at some point in time over the last year or so their plans changed,” the source, who is an Austin Police Department officer, said.  “They said O.K. now we’re going to get signatures for this ballot initiative in May and switch gears and put pressure on city leadership to move away from a four-year deal to a one-year deal because the four-year is detrimental to what we are trying to accomplish.”

When police move out, criminals tend to move in. The future for residents of the City of Austin looks very bleak. Moving out now before property values plummet over rampant crime may be pro tip.

He shot at people, threatened people, and was righteously taken out by police snipers. But the “activists” who never consider circumstances before committing to their unhinged protests still showed up to make themselves look like fools.

According to KARE11:

People gathered Saturday afternoon to honor Andrew ‘Tekle’ Sundberg while demanding more answers after he was shot and killed by law enforcement on Thursday morning.

More than 100 people, including Sundberg’s parents, gathered outside the apartment complex where Tekle Sundberg was shot.

Two Minneapolis police snipers shot Sundberg early Thursday morning, ending a six-hour standoff that began when police were called to the apartment complex at around 9:30 p.m. on a report of shots being fired inside the building. A mother with two young children called 911 and told dispatchers someone was firing shots through their apartment.

That mother decided to confront the woke group of protesters. She may not have gotten through to them based on their insensitive heckling, but her point was made for those with a brain.

Is the police always in the right when they shoot a suspect? No. There are bad shoots. But the vast majority of them are justified, which is why it’s insane that radical leftists protest EVERY SINGLE TIME a Black man is shot.
