Is violent crime a major political issue?

Black Voters Overwhelmingly See Violent Crime as Very Important Issue

Black voters are significantly more concerned about violent crime than other racial and ethnic groups, according to a Pew Research Poll.

www.breitbart.com

According to Blacks and minorities it is. Pew found 81 percent of black voters believe violent crime is a very important issue when considering who to vote for, compared to 65 percent of Hispanic voters and 56 percent of white voters.

For the privileged democrat elite, they live in nice neighborhoods and could care less.

Yet minorities still vote democrat. But when you are in a cult, you drink the cool aid anyway.

Nobody gives a damn, Votto. They didn't give a damn when it was going down and they don't care now unless they can use it to score political points.

Democrats don't want to protect Blacks and minorities. They think it's more important to give Blacks and minorities the "right" to murder their offspring through abortion.

Yeah....put that on the ballot and see how she flies.

It is frightening to me how people will continue to vote for those who are destroying them.

All because of a misguided belief or two about them

Is it because they are 100% convinced the GOP are racists?

It reminds me of how those from Venezuela are running from their country due to oppression, but then come to the US to support the democrats who are more likely to do the same things to them that the socialist government from which they just escaped.

Or even take those fleeing democrat strong holds like California, where they move to other states to escape economic oppression, only to continue to vote democrat

Leftism is like a cancer. It just metastasizes until it kills off its host.

What's the line from Harry Potter, Soon everyone will have a choice between what is right, and what is easy.


Leftism is the easy way out, because it tells people "you don't have to think, we will do it for you"

At the federal level, not much can be done about crime.

But at the State level, it should be a pretty big issue! Imo

Well, it's an issue in liberal cities. Violent crime is skyrocketing but the libs in these cities want jungle rules. Go for it. I got no sympathy if you vote for people who let criminals go free and murder, rape, looting, go unpunished.

Obama is now worth over 50 times what he was worth before becoming president. The Clintons turned Politics into an absolute fortune. Biden is adding massive amounts to his wealth on a daily basis, and A.O.C. is climbing up the financial ladder.

People need to understand that politics is a money making industry for democrats. The entire notion isn't to DO anything for the black community, but for Dem politicians convincing blacks to vote democrat in order to hop on that gravy train.

That's all that really matters to them.

Crime is a local issue, generally speaking. It could be blacks may be more concerned about crime when voting for local politicians. Of course voting for Rs isn't likely to fix things.

Here is a good column on how crime has exploded in black communities since COVID.

CRIME​

The Floyd Effect​

Steve Sailer

November 02, 2022

Indeed, one reason states with lots of black murderers like Mississippi and Alabama are so reliably Republican is because whites feel they need to stick together to avoid letting law and order be lost to steadfast Democrat blacks. From 2018 to 2019, blacks were 9.8 times more likely than whites to die by homicide, which is a lot.

As nation-builder Lee Kuan Yew skeptically observed about our sacred value of Diversity: “In multiracial societies, you don’t vote in accordance with your economic interests and social interests, you vote in accordance with race and religion.”

In contrast, in nearly all white (and heavily armed) Vermont, it’s safer to vote for liberals because voters aren’t at much risk from crime. On the other hand, highly conservative Idaho, to the surprise of Wire showrunner David Simon, is about as safe as Vermont. It’s nice to have the luxury that Vermont and Idaho voters enjoy to express their inner feelings at the ballot box, but Mississippians do not experience that freedom.

There don’t appear to be any big cities with high white homicide rates, other than perhaps in Missouri and Indiana, although that could be due to blacks victimizing whites.

My point is not that any single policy set off the vast wave of shootings two years ago, but that the zeitgeist went insane in the last week of May 2020, with horrific consequences. As my June 3, 2020, column was headlined, it was “The Bonfire of the Insanities” as the Establishment egged on looters, arsonists, and murderers in the name of anti-racism.

It’s time for some consequences.

Granted, electing a different set of politicians is unlikely to make things all that much better, but at least it sends a message.

Needless to say, there's no difference in crime rate changes between liberals and conservative areas. Places that reform the police have done the same as places that didn't.

That is, coservative "solutions" to crime have no effect. They don't work.

However, these are conservatives, so facts don't matter. They just want excuses to stomp on minorities.

The infamous or famous Ann Coulter depending on your perspective, has a column on this issue too. Apparently the D governor in NY may lose due to her weakness on crime.

Where are you getting your information? Crime has skyrocketed in many black communities.

Look at NYC. Under Giuliana and Bloomberg, NYC saw a great reduction in crime because they were tough on crime.

LOL that didn't have the effect they thought it would. Dems are clueless about Americans.

No. Crime across the whole nation dropped by the same amount over that time. All Giulani's policies did was give police excuses to harrass minorities.

Black women are being registered to vote at record levels....

but black men seem to have become ambivalent to voting....

Random senseless violent crime will wake people up every time....
We pay for our streets and we demand they be safe and nut job free... lock up the crazies....
