America does not have a crime problem, it has a democrat communist/globalist problem.
The Left desperately spins the high crime rates—caused by their pro-crime policies—claiming that crime is a Republican problem.
The media [runs] articles with headlines like, ‘Red States Have Higher Murder Rates’ and ‘Republicans Like to Talk Tough on Crime—But They’re the Ones with a Real Crime Problem’.
New York Times columnist Paul Krugman, who once claimed that the internet would have no more of an impact than the fax machine, argued that high crime was really a Republican problem and decided to prove it by claiming that:

New York Times columnist Paul Krugman, who once claimed that the internet would have no more of an impact than the fax machine, argued that high crime was really a Republican problem and decided to prove it by claiming that:
Oklahoma’s murder rate was almost 50 percent higher than California’s, almost double New York’s.
Krugman, who somehow has a Nobel Prize, failed to note that most of the murders were coming out of Oklahoma City and Tulsa.
In last year’s gubernatorial election, Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt won most of the state while Oklahoma, Tulsa, and Cleveland counties, however, went to leftist democrat communist/globalists Joy Hofmeister.
The ‘blue’ parts of Oklahoma are also red with blood.
Hoffmeister had claimed in a viral gubernatorial debate attack:
The fact is the rates of violent crime are higher in Oklahoma under your watch.
Oklahoma had 287 murders in 2020: 166 came out of Oklahoma County and Tulsa County, the two counties that supported Hoffmeister.
Oklahoma County and Tulsa are two of the 62 counties that were responsible for 56% of America’s murders in 2020.
A groundbreaking study by John R. Lott of the Crime Prevention Research Center, revealed:
1% of counties have 21% of the population and 42% of the murders, and
2% of counties contain 31% of the population and 56% of the murders.
The 1% of bloody red counties include such democrat communist/globalist strongholds as Philadelphia, New York City, Los Angeles, Baltimore, Dallas, D.C., Miami-Dade, Milwaukee, San Diego, St. Louis, Chicago’s Cook County, L Houston’s Harris County, Detroit’s Wayne County, Memphis’ Shelby County, Pheonix’s Maricopa County, Cleveland’s Cuyahoga County, and many others.
Biden won Cook County, the bloodiest county in the country, by 66%. He won Los Angeles County, the second bloodiest, by 71%, Harris County by 56%, Philadelphia by 81%, New York City by 76%, Wayne County by 68%, and Shelby County by 64%.
Shelby was not only one of the three counties in Tennessee to vote democrat communist/globalist, it was also responsible for 311 of the state’s 682 murders.
Similarly, Wayne County was responsible for 379 of Michigan’s 693 murders.
Houston accounted for 405 of the 537 murders in Harris County and along with Dallas’ 251 murders, Austin’s 47, San Antonio’s 128, Fort Worth’s 99, accounted for around half of murders in Texas.
Maricopa County made up 299 of the 423 murders in Arizona.
Marion County, where Indianapolis is located, accounted for nearly half of the murders in the state, even though it has less than 10% of the population.
Milwaukee was responsible for 201 of Wisconsin’s 308 murders even though it also has less than 10% of the population.
There isn’t a red state murder problem, red states
have a [democratcommunist/globalist] crime problem.
The CPRC study showed that while 2% of counties populated by [the Left] were responsible for 56% of the country’s murders, 52% of counties had no murders and 68% of counties had at most one murder.
These numbers show that America is not a violent country.
[W]e do not have a crime problem and that gun culture is not the issue: crime culture in [
democratcommunist/globalist] cities is the issue.
The Leftist-run crime cities and counties have created a massive social problem that otherwise would hardly exist.
As the study notes:
If the 1% of the counties with the worst number of murders somehow were to become a separate country, the murder rate in the rest of the U.S. would have been only 4.31 in 2020.
Removing the worst 2% or 5% would have reduced the U.S. rate to just 3.71 or 2.99 per 100,000, respectively.
We could have the murder rate of New Zealand.
America is not a dangerous or crime-ridden country.
Our nation’s problem is the Leftist-run crime counties.
Unfortunately, communist/globalist cities are overrun with criminals and the politicians who cater to them. The democrats communists/globalists became an urban party and—after jettisoning the white working class and the small business middle class—they became the party of criminals.
From defunding the police to the Black Lives Matter riots to mass jailbreaks and the legalization of drugs and shoplifting in major cities, [the communists/globalists] embraced pro-crime policies that unleashed a massive crime wave. And now they pretend not to know what’s causing the crime.
Krugman admitted:
Nationwide, violent crime rose substantially in 2020. Nobody knows for sure what caused the surge—just as nobody knows for sure what caused the epic decline in crime from 1990 to the mid-2010.
And if Krugman was not a Kool-Aid drinking leftist he would realize:
Tough-on-crime policies cut crime in the 90s and [the contrary]: pro-crime policies boosted crime.
There is no mystery here:
Crime is caused by repeat offenders. In the 90s we began locking them up and then about 5 years ago, we began letting them go at the federal and state level.
In I Can’t Breathe: How a Racial Hoax Is Killing America, David Horowitz exposed the lies behind the Black Lives Matter pro-crime movement and warned of the pandemic of crime that was being unleashed.
That hoax has unleashed unprecedented violence, but that crime wave largely remains confined to [
democratcommunist/globalist] areas where criminals prey on members of the party.
More than an additional 5,000 people were killed in 2020. There is little doubt that the disproportionate majority of both the victims and the killers were from the Left. Leftist pro-crime policies are killing Americans, but mostly they’re killing fellow members of the Left.
An added 5,000 murders alone means $85 billion in costs. That’s a fraction of the money, estimated at half a trillion dollars, that we spend every year coping with the criminal justice and social problems caused by [communist/globalist] crime.
America could be a safe and pleasant place to live. And the majority of its counties, which are mostly Republican, are.
Unfortunately many of its Leftist counties are broken places, packed with broken families, criminal cultures and leftist politicians who pander to the criminals.
Final thought: The information contained herein will not receive mass propaganda media coverage and the democrat communist/globalist party will cover it up with lies about systemic racism.
Any correction of the crime problem in America will not begin until Conservatism returns to leadership. Meanwhile Def-Con News readers, segregate and isolate to the greatest degree possible. Stay away from those Crime Counties if at all possible.
