ABC News Launches Weeklong Special on Crime Waves in Democrat-Run Cities
Breitbart ^ | 07/26/2021 | Awr Hawkins

Posted on 07/26/2021 9:26:39 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

ABC News is running a weeklong special which examines the crime waves engulfing Democrat-run cities like Chicago, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, and New York.

Although the information is presented as national problem, the title is “One Nation Under Fire,” ABC News’ coverage began by mentioning shootings that occurred in Milwaukee during the celebration resulting from the Milwaukee Bucks wining the NBA finals.

Milwaukee is a Democrat-run city as are a host of others that are featured as exemplars requiring new, harsh gun control restrictions.

You are 4 times more likely to be murdered than die of COVID in Chicago. We know what the real plague is and it’s vector: Democrats.

Every time a resident of a city is killed a member of the city council should be arrested and charged with negligence. Problem solved!

I already know what will happen; they will point out of the problems, but come to insidiously stupid conclusions, ignoring obvious causes like defunding the police, going soft on crime, soft on Antifa and BLM rioters, etc.

Expect the words “people of color disproportionately affected” to be repeated several times.

Nothing new. Fifty years ago they were blaming the crime wave on “Saturday Night Specials”. Any firearms sold for less than $45.00 at 1970 price. (The Denver Post railed against Saturday Night Specials, and showed a Ruger Mk-II as a typical one to be banned)

The lies we have been told over the years...

1962 We ONLY want to register handguns. Rifles will not be affected!

1964, We ONLY want to register ALL firearms, not ban them.

1968 We ONLY want to register all guns, and ban the import of foreign Saturday Night Specials, and 5-shot bolt action army surplus rifles! (they got the ban).

1970, We ONLY want to ban small American handguns. Rifles will not be affected!

1976 We ONLY want to ban ALL handguns! Rifles will not be affected!

1981, Actress Lee Grant on GMA screams...”THE NRA IS A RIFLE ORGANIZATION! THEY SHOULD GIVE UP THEIR HANDGUNS AND THEY CAN KEEP THEIR RIFLES!”

1984, they made a grab for the rifles.

It will whitewash Democrat incompetence and conclude that all of the violence is attributable to the Republicans and the NRA. Don’t expect any honesty or truthful representation of the facts.

Just guns? Might as well as climate change, voter ID intimidation, unfair SAT testing, policy brutality, and white supremacy to the list.

Good list, but could another possible biggie (besides guns) be the manufactured and false need for federalization of police?

Might a cynic suspect that the whole "defund the police" nonsense sets up a fear condition to scare peeps into going along with offers for fed police "assistance"?

What about people who are getting stabbed, pummeled, kicked, hit over the head with a bottle or tree branch? (See recent beat-downs in New York.)

Gotta clamp down on knives, bottles, trees with branches, fists (used for pummeling), feet (used for kicking). Such objects must be strictly controlled, if not outlawed.

They can’t hide it, it’s Democrat cities.

ABC is nothing but a propaganda broadcaster for their Globalist handlers.

It's not "One Nation Under Fire". It's Democrat cities that burned due to Democrats aligning themselves with Communist Black Lives MatterTM and Communist Antifa to further their agenda.

If the Democrat cities want to deal with THEIR problem, let them send the bill to the Democrat Party, Time Warner, Comcast, Google, and Facebook as well as the rest of the employees and stock holders in ABCCBSCNNFOXNBCNPRNYTWAPO. Citizens in non-Democrat cities cannot pay these Democrat bills.

The fault and the reasons will be blamed on things you could never imagine. EXCEPT DEMOCRAT RUN CITIES, COUNTIES, STATES.

It will be a weeklong ABC apology for Democrats.

“Defund the police” was intended to create a crime wave.
Create a crisis, then take advantage of that crisis.

Then the local dimrat politicians beg their dimrat comrades in DC for help. The DC rats are more than happy to come in and restore order. Their kind of order.

Obviously, the solution is to take away guns from white Republicans living hundreds or thousands of miles away.

Brilliant and correct.

When some people assassinated President Kennedy including involvement of a scope rifle, the solution was new laws for the restriction of handguns. They may as well have called for banning school book depositories.

Here's a topic for ABC News:

Look at each of the last 100 violent crimes (probably 2-4 weeks). Tell which ones would have been prevented if suburban families were prevented from bearing arms.

And which Chicago and NYC shootings could have prevented if the criminals had seen a posted No Gun Zone sign first.

Look for the trick. It’s not possible for MSM to tell the truth. Too much riding on it for them to be honest.
