The Left Wanted To Destroy The Police, And So Far They’ve Succeeded
So why was the radical left so quiet when its legislative plan to destroy policing failed? Because their mission has already been almost completely accomplished. In virtually every major Democrat-run city and beyond, policing as we know it has been undermined beyond recognition perhaps beyond repair.
The numbers speak for themselves. America s crime epidemic saw a 30 percent homicide surge in 2020, the biggest ever. Almost 10,000 homicide victims were black 53 percent of all victims, despite blacks constituting only 13 percent of the U.S. population.
The Black Lives Matter Marxists program of defunding, demonizing, and dismantling the police has emboldened criminals and caused police to pull back. The war on cops has also escalated. Already this year, 241 officers have been shot, 44 killed by gunfire, and ambush attacks have increased 103 percent.
Black Lives Matter, Democrats, the ruling class media, and rogue prosecutors have broken the police. Perpetuating the myth of systemic police racism has justified eliminating cash bail, ending qualified immunity, and enacting laws that practically legalize theft. In Democrat-run cities, proactive policing is dead. Officer morale is at rock bottom and many of the most qualified veterans are bailing out. Last year across the country, retirements increased by 45 percent and resignations by 18 percent.
Finally, the radical left has insidiously and effectively undermined our law and civil order through an organized takeover of states attorneys offices by radicals. Funded by leftist billionaire George Soros, these rogue prosecutors subvert the system from within dismissing thousands of felony cases, failing to charge violent criminals, and arbitrarily refusing to prosecute quality-of-life crimes, such as public urination or prostitution.
In this way, no matter how effective local police are at arresting criminals, their efforts are sabotaged. Massive spikes in violence are directly connected to pro-criminal Soros prosecutors in Chicago, Baltimore, Austin, Los Angel
Is this true? I don’t know but it’s disturbing. Soros’s organizations interest in local prosecutors particularly. Policing needs reform and in many cities deep reform. But this approach seems all wrong.
