We already know that violent crime rates have been soaring in major cities across the U.S. since the call to defund police departments and denigrate local law enforcement. That wasn’t difficult to call. It’s simple math: less law enforcement, more violent crime. Shocker.
This past Wednesday, Joe Biden told cities and states they can use their portions of the $350 billion in direct aid from the COVID-19 rescue plan to improve public safety efforts, including hiring more police officers, as USA Today reported.
The bad news is that Mr. Biden decided to simultaneously enforce more gun control and attack Americans’ Second Amendment rights to bear arms and protect ourselves from the rise in crime and criminals.
