Black fatalities rise in US cities after 'Defund the Police' movement surges
2020-07-05
[THEPOSTMILLENNIAL] The Black Lives Matter movement to defund law enforcement across America has led to an alarming rise in violent mostly peaceful crime in major US cities and an increase in deaths in the black community.

According to a report by "The War on Cops" best-selling author Heather Mac Donald, police data and news reports in urban centers like reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown
...home of Al Capone, the Chicago Black Sox, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel...
and New York reveal that violent mostly peaceful crime has surged following the George Floyd protests.

The Ferguson Effect—which Mac Donald coined in 2014 after the fatal shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri—describes the rise in crimes following the subsequent wave of civil unrest by street rioters. 2,000 additional black homicide victims then occurred in 2015 and 2016, the report cited.

Mac Donald calls today’s violent mostly peaceful-crime spike "Ferguson Effect 2.0" or the "Minneapolis Effect."

Less muscle for the future.

This may be the only piece of good news out there right now.

#8  Black lives do not matter to blacks.

Also it is the white Marxists that are calling for the defunding for the most part.

Along with Planned Parenthood, they will make sure the blacks are slowly eliminated.
