Anti-police sentiment in big cities across the country comes at a cost and we're seeing it now with skyrocketing crime statistics from St. Louis to New York City.
Baltimore - Murders have doubled with 43 homicides last month alone
Chicago - 900+ shootings this year
St. Louis - 55 murders this year
Dallas - Violent crime up 10 percent
Atlanta - Homicides up 32 percent
Milwaukee - Homicides up by 180 percent
New York City - Murders up 20 percent
Heather Mac Donald at the Wall Street Journal has a detailed piece about the increase in crime that's worth a full read. Reporters from different cities broke down the numbers last night with Greta Van Susteren.
"There's a war on cops. Not bad cops, not bad apples, but all cops and the police know it. The conduct of the suspects is never in question they're always right, it's usually drawn on racial lines. It's a complete, toxic formula to actually do police work," former Los Angeles Police Department Homicide Detective Mark Fuhrman said. "The police are simply scaling back, exactly what everybody's chanting for in all of these protests. 'Don't be so aggressive. Don't stop and frisk. Don't stop and ask where people are going. Don't make traffic stops.' So, they are and now crime's out of site."

As I've said before, the criminals in these neighborhoods aren't anti-law enforcement because the police engage in racial profiling or brutality, they're anti-police because cops stop their criminality.
Ironically, some of the very same people in Baltimore who accused the police of racism and wanted them out of their neighborhoods, are begging them to come back.

Leave the black neighborhoods to themselves. If the good hard working people in those neighborhoods won’t clean it up themselves then leave them to their own devices.
I agree due to the context of (written within article) remark
Crime would go down if we had shall-issue carry laws.
I wouldn’t be a white cop in any large city for a billion bucks.
Venezuela... America... Statism always ends the same. Once the promises run out, the dream becomes the nightmare.
Obama and Holder read about the crime wave, and all the murders. Their reaction; high fiving each other on Skype.
Huh. How about that.
Well, what’re ya gonna do, huh?
On to the next story I go.
#BlackMurdersMatter
Thining the herd works for me...
Ridiculous premise. Being anti boot-on-the-neck policing doesn’t cause murders.
Despite the headline, anti-police sentiment is probably not a factor in that decision.
Save a cop, leave them indoors.
Let the blacks dispose of themselves in these big towns.
Tired of Obama and his ilk prosecuting the good guys.
The Democrats are always thinking population control. What better way to get the job done without the blame?
“I wouldnt be a white cop in any large city for a billion bucks.”...............
Try being a cop ANYWHERE these days, it’s like rolling the dice at a casino. You never know what the next call might bring. Indeed large cities have a larger percentage of “street rats” to contend with but adding in all the other potential “no goods” who are every where, the job is still very dangerous.
Everyday, I pray for my son, brother, grandson, nephew and all the other cops out there.
Isn’t it a crime to cheat Planned Parenthood out of the government money they get to perform an abortion? Charge these people for DYI infanticide. Planned Parenthood needs the work. /s
Maybe we should publish maps of cities, with red lines on the maps to denote the bad neighborhoods. And also to note that police are standing down from these areas. Enter these areas at your own risk.
The sad fact is that most black people are decent good people, but there is a parasitic criminal element in the black community, which thrives when there are too many minorities in an area.
Yes. Lousy editing.
Agreed. That parasitic element has the media, politicians and race pimps covering for them, leading them to believe they are invincible - until they run into a CCW holder.
