#6 Soros backed DAs and corrupt mayors can only do so much. I would like to acknowledge the contributions made by the petty thugs who do that thankless chore of committing the actual murders. The big wigs get recognition, but this dramatic increase in homicides could never been achieved without the little guys and their commitment to senseless evil on a daily basis or, in some cases, just on the weekends.

#8 I'd still like to know what Soros gets out of this.

Is he that committed to turning the USA into a 3rd world hell hole? Gates too for that matter.

#9 i suspect that Soros and other are actually believers (or you might say victims) of their own propaganda.

I've had discussions with lefties on this.
