    Default Murders Spiked in 2020 in Cities Across the United States

    Overall, the toll of some 21,500 people killed last year is still well below the record set during the violence of the early 1990s. Still, several cities, like Albuquerque, Memphis, Milwaukee and Des Moines, are recording their highest murder numbers ever, according to the report.

    And the report showed the use of guns has become far more prevalent. About 77 percent of reported murders in 2020 were committed with a firearm, the highest share ever reported, up from 67 percent a decade ago, said Jeff Asher, a crime analyst based in New Orleans.

    When have the police ever prevented a crime?

    Most people call the police. "I am on the way to 6th and Central avenue to commit a murder."

    Even then, the cops still would find a way to fuck that up.

    Ah, so is that why there were no murders, rapes, or robberies last year?

    How does that prevent crime, since crime still happens despite this?

    Like, because Dahmer was arrested and charged with Murder back in the 90's, there haven't been any murders since?

    Then when the police take illegal guns off of gang bangers they also save lives.

    If a guy is behind bars he is not committing crime. Dahmer didn't eat anyone else.

    OK, but other people do, you know...and the police don't prevent that...and the guy who is behind bars ALREADY COMMITTED THE CRIME that the police didn't prevent.

    There have been many serial killers since Dahmer, and many cannibals since him too.

    None of whom were stopped by the police before committing those crimes...Dahmer wasn't even stopped by the police WHILE he was committing those crimes.

    Like, literally...he committed a crime right in front of them when he kidnapped an underage kid that the police let him take back to his home after the kid escaped.

    There's your fucking "crime prevention". What a joke.

    No police were defunded last year, their budgets were all set in 2019.

    And they should have even been better at preventing crime last year since half the country was locking down anyway.

    So we should not defund the police so they can take more violent criminals off the street then!!! Defunding the police is the dumbest idea ever. Its going to cost the Dems in 2022 and 2024.
