Study debunks ‘red state murder’ claim from Hillary Clinton, Democrats

EXCLUSIVE – A new study reveals that local Democratic officials and Soros-backed prosecutors in cities and counties are responsible for the rising violent crime rates in otherwise red states. The study debunks recent claims by Democrats, including Hillary Clinton, that rising crime rates are due to policies pursued by Republican or "Trump" states.

"The Blue City Murder Problem," a study published Friday by the Edwin Meese III Center for Judicial and Legal Studies at the Heritage Foundation, found that, of the 30 American cities with the highest murder rates, 27 have Democratic mayors. Within those cities, there are at least 14 "rogue prosecutors" either backed or inspired by billionaire Democrat supporter George Soros.

Authors of the study, Charles Stimson, Zack Smith and Kevin D. Dayaratna, concluded, "Whether a state as a whole voted for Donald Trump or Joe Biden has nothing whatever to do with the homicide rates within its constituent parts."

"The high murder rate is almost exclusively cabined in cities run by Democrats and with Democrat district attorneys, many of whom are Soros bought-and-paid-for rogue prosecutors or inspired by Soros, groups like the egregiously misnamed Fair and Just Prosecution and other battering rams of the movement," they wrote.

Those lacking in brain power to understand why being soft on crime does nothing to stop crime aren’t going to be convinced, because they’re Democrats.

Once again, Hillary is caught in a dastardly lie. Par for the course. She is toxic.

Of course this comes as no surprise.

It’s supposed to be this way. It is no mistake. It has been going on in our city for about 200 years.

Build a neighborhood. After some time the houses start to have more and more problems. Sell the house to someone who doesn’t have as much money and you move further out.

Then the person you sold the house to, not having as much money, can’t keep it up. He sells the house to a slum lord.

Then he moves out to a lower middle class suburb. The original neighborhood is a ghetto.

So the people who live in the original neighborhood want the government to solve their problems with poor housing and bad schools. So they vote for Democrats to give them things. Eventually it gets so bad they leave, the city condemns the houses and tears them down.

Now you have empty spaces with streets going to nowhere.

This is not going to change.

If we could only figure out which demographic votes for Democrats and match that with whch demographic has incredibly high crime rates, this mystery would be solved.

There is room to debate some of the presumptions of this survey. For instance, consider the claim, “Whether a state as a whole voted for Donald Trump or Joe Biden has nothing whatever to do with the homicide rates within its constituent parts.” Well, New York and Illinois aside, there aren’t that many states with cities that have a very significant portion of the state. Take Georgia for instance. Atlanta is less than 5% of the state’s population, even though the metro area is a sizeable majority. (Fulton County is about 10%, and while I don’t know much about centralization in Georgia, sheriffs and DAs are usually elected by county.) So state policies towards gun rights, criminal penalties, etc., actually matter far more than cities’ enforcement policies, no-gun zones, etc.

BUT THIS DOESN’T MEAN THE LIBERALS ARE RIGHT!!!! Studies that find correlations between conservative policies and high crime rates usually get causation backwards: Conservative policies are implemented because of high crime, initially producing a correlation liberals falsely claim shows the policies cause crime.
