Where are the stories about the rise in violent crime in cities that have defunded police?

You really have to dig to find them....that's a story in itself!  New York, trendwise, may beat Chicago for shootings and it's just getting started.  But the democrats "care" you see.

Have you seen Seattle, Washington, USA lately? I wouldn't go there without a bulletproof vest

 The real problem you don’t want to face is the race discrimination that holds people of color back. Many Americans who live in rural counties and suburbs have all the advantages (not just money) and look down their noses at inner cities. It’s where the wealthy and affluent live. Places where you can work hard a make a nice life for yourself nd your family. 

Life in the inner city is another world. Most living there can’t afford the suburbs, or even the means to move there. they usually work minimum wage jobs, pay high rents to absentee slum lords who ignore complains of needed repairs. They send their kids to schools with less resources and more discipline problems. Not many businesses or corporations to subsidize them. No money to make needed repairs to these schools. Unemployment is as much as 50% among the young and many resort to drugs, gangs and crime. Police intolerance, abuse and violence adds to the distrust they face making their jobs harder. 

A concerted effort to improve schools, provide good paying jobs and decent affordable housing  would be better than building more prisons and complaining about conditions in inner cities. Surprisingly latest statistics show major crime in New York City is way down now than when Giuliani ran the city. Go figure? There is a reason a lot of republicans don’t run or get elected to govern inner cities. Most don’t live there or maybe the job is too tough for them I guess . . .  

The right tries to find the incidents and then run with it. The fact is some cities have tried different approaches some with a great deal of success, some with a mixed bag of results. the fact is that not every approach is going to work in every place...........that's a fact. But that doesn't mean you don't try different approaches.

There was a report I saw yesterday that violent crime in Seattle exploded over 400%

Spin righty SPIN!!!!!!

Here's the thing. ALL this crap is happening in DEMOCRAT cities as DEMOCRAT city government tries to placate the DEMOCRAT mob of rioters. NONE of this is happening in Republican cities and, friend, these aren't 'Trumptards' burning down the inner city and killing cops, MORE black people and other DEMOCRAT civilians.

But, sure. Let's vote for a DEMOCRAT for President. They're doing such a great job in the cities! Let's take this national!So OF COURSE they're not going to cover it. Or, they're going to redirect or rationalize it. 

Well there are stories about a surge in murders (other violent crime is down) in many cities.  It was one of the top stories on the evening news last night. 

But there aren't stories that specifically draw the link between that and defunding the police because there isn't one (yet).  For one thing, most cities in the US have seen a spike in violence and few cities have voted to cut police budgets.  Secondly, while some cities, most notably New York, have voted in police budget cuts, those have not taken effect yet and so cannot have contributed, one way or another, to the crime rates we're now experiencing.
