RECORD HOMICIDES IN CITY AFTER CITYhttps://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2021/12/record-homicides-in-city-after-city.phpWith three weeks still to go in 2021, at least 12 major U.S. cities have broken their annual homicide records. Two other cities are on the verge of doing so.
The cities that have already suffered a record number of homicides are:
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Columbus, Ohio
Indianapolis, Indiana
Louisville, Kentucky
St. Paul, Minnesota
Portland, Oregon
Tucson, Arizona
Toledo, Ohio
Austin, Texas
Rochester, New York
Albuquerque, New Mexico
Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Five of these cities — Columbus, Indianapolis, Louisville, Toledo, and Baton Rouge — broke records set in 2020. That was the year when homicides increased 30 percent nationally, the largest single-year jump since the FBI began recording crime statistics 60 years ago.
The two cites that are likely to break their annual record before the end of the month are Minneapolis and Milwaukee.
It would be interesting to learn, which cities have no-bail policies, uber-Prog DAs, and high levels of Antifoid and BLM activity, especially which cities have two or more of those factors.
