COVID, and calls to defend the police that have led to staff shortages have been partially-blamed for spiraling crime levels
Top cops say they fear that the US could be hit by a horrific summer of mass shootings - with four states alone witnessing gun atrocities within the last 24 hours.
Savannah Police Chief Roy Minter Jr and Chuck Wexler, from the Police Executive Research Forum, said a recent explosion in the number of shootings appears to be a long term trend, rather than a blip.
Minter spoke after a man was killed and seven were injured in a mass drive-by shooting in the Georgia city on Friday night. The victim has since been named as Arthur Milton, 20. Seven others were injured.
He said: 'It's very disturbing what we're seeing across the country and the level of gun violence that we're seeing across the country.
'It's disturbing and it's senseless.'

It’s just black on black violence. Doesn’t matter to me. I have been taught that their lives don’t matter unless a white cop shoots them.
“Its the perfect storm before a genocide.”
I really don’t think the democrats are trying to stop it, I believe they are still stoking it in the hopes that they can use the results to confiscate our only means of defense. Firearms are our only means to defend our families, ourselves and our nation.
The common thread in relationship to all this violence is....They all occurred in big cities!
Exactly. Once an area reaches a certain population level of minorities the first step is the arrival of gangs, the next drugs, and then comes the shootings. The nearest big city to me is Spokane, WA and it has recently completed all three steps and shall henceforth be referred to as Spokompton.
no brainer, the dems are just gearing up for their mass American gun confiscation and they’ll call it “voluntary gun buy back/turn in for the safety of the children” but if you refuse, they’ll come take it.
You are right!
As sure as the Wuhan virus came from China!
Ninety five percent of shootings involve Blacks, Mexicans and mostly gang/drug dealer related. There are very few White shootings and usually they concern methamphetamines.
Drug dealers and human traffickers!
All gangsters!
Easy money, but easy death.
They live the life THEY CHOOSE because they don’t want a REAL job where they have to adhere to someone else’s schedule.
And another issue: THEY will ALWAYS have guns!
It’s best that they just kill each other offf and leave the rest of us and OUR RIGHTS to DEFEND ourselves ALONE.
You can’t depend on the police anymore either!
Depends on what bottom cop thinks about it. It is pride month you know /s
Probably what the Daily Wail is hoping for
Yep
I’m wondering who Top Cop is.
I know America used to have a Top Cop, but with all of them liking corruption better than Law and Order, it’s hard to tell.
“gun crime” and “gun violence” are caused by the new artificially intelligent guns that hate people.
How dare you accuse people of those crimes? ;-)
Cry baby cops get no respect.
It is their job to stop the crime.
Crying about it and blaming it on guns .....the tears of a crybaby.
Bullsh*t. Guns can't be 'violent' on their own.
Guns could be stacked to the moon and NOT ONE OF THEM WOULD 'BE VIOLENT' unless some damn criminal puts his hands on it.
The problem ISN'T GUNS KILLING PEOPLE , IT'S criminals USING GUNS TO kill people.
Take power away from criminals and their enablers and give that power back to the police.
Bullsh*t. It's NOT gun violence. It's criminal violence.
Guns can't 'be violent' on their own. Arson isn't 'fire violence'.
Guns could be stacked to the moon and NOT ONE OF THEM WOULD 'BE VIOLENT' unless some damn criminal puts his hands on it.
The problem ISN'T GUNS KILLING PEOPLE , IT'S criminals USING GUNS TO kill people.
Solution?
Take power away from criminals (and their enablers in the black community) and give that power back to the police... Then 'criminal violence' will start to decrease. C
Now what do you suppose those shootings have in common?
Arson isn’t ‘fire violence’.
Rape isn’t ‘penis violence’.
Murder isn’t ‘gun violence’.
Criminals Thugs Human Filth ARE THE PROBLEM...
When you buy into liberal delusions about evil you get the crap we have today.
Take power away from criminals and give it back to police or learn to live in a violent hellhole run by thugs. Or move to a red state...
I hope it is twice than what they are warning.
That possible.
But I don’t hear them publicly calling for violence any more. Not as long as cops are being railroaded. So if they are still stirring it, I think they are doing it quietly.
You’ve been warned by the experts ... stay away from Progressive city shitholes if you value your life.
