MSNBC's Joy Reid is slammed for saying she is skeptical of soaring crime rates JUST because she hasn't heard 'anecdotes from friends' about violence in big cities

Yeah, you can’t throw simple statistics at an idiot like Reid.

Math is hard.

[VeniVidiVici]

Yeah my mother, who escaped Hungary before the Russians completely shut it down, is the one who can't see what's happening and is being manipulated.

LOL! I'm sure the point would be lost on your niece.

[Olog-hai]

Precisely. All by her lonesome.

[Signalman]

She’s an idiot. And, as with all the other MSDNC “journalists”, she’s a stenographer for President Stolen’s administration.

[Organic Panic]

And black neighborhoods are safe, There’s no crime in Obama’s Martha’s Vinyard hood.

[antidemoncrat]

She is one of those blacks that have forgotten how the Democrats have treated them over the last 200 years. I’ll bet the majority of hard core Democrats still secretly loath them.

[noiseman]

Of course Joy Reid claims not to be hearing about out of control crime from her friends; her friends are the criminals.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Chuck Todd has not mentioned it either.

Odd.

[NobleFree]

The flip side of FReepers who reject statistics on marijuana use and users because it doesn’t match all the users they know.

Every talking head should walk through “the bad part of town” after midnight once a year—alone.

That should be their “refresher course” on the real world.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

Pauline Kael said she didn’t know anyone who voted for Nixon in 1972 when he won a 49 state landslide.

[Publius]

Pauline Kael's and Saul Steinberg's view of the world.

[kaehurowing]

She should ask her bodyguard.

[NonValueAdded]

Good Lord, that line is as old as the hills. Just how dumb is she. /rhetorical

[Colt1851Navy]

Crime is only a problem when she is a victim.

[dandiegirl]

That’s the argument all these young girls use. I have had that thrown at me before too. Their “news sources” ignore most of what’s going on in the real world, so they have no idea. Would love to know what your mother said to her.

[GOPJ]

Joy Reid is what happens when a retard gets a TV slot.

I don't agree with her often but Joy Reid is one of the smartest people on MSNBC. She can do a show without using talking points written out for her - unlike most of the idiots on that network...

[Browns Ultra Fan]

My in-laws say the same thing and they live in NYC. “We don’t see any crime. It is just trash journalism by the NY Post!”

[John Milner]

Anecdotal evidence is from Satan!

Remember how any consideration that hydroxychloroquine might be an effective Covid treatment had to be squelched by all MSM because those cases were anecdotal?

Now we have to doubt “settled science” because liberals don’t have anecdotal evidence.

LOL
