Such happiness in these Democratic cities.

While NYC police were swarming a Bronx Mc Donalds, while Chicago police were conducting investigations into 30 people shot Friday night into Saturday, while at the same time Los Angeles was battling a 750 acre arson fire the hyper-affluent celebrity-heavily neighborhood of Pacific Palisades.

More stress in expensive Democratic cities because mass shortages, hyper-inflation and more people getting angry because the liberal media loves to stir the stew.

Months ago they were throwing massive parades when Biden won thinking he was going to make America like a Norwergian fantasy.

The income disparities are skyrocketing under Biden, mass unemployment, massive inflation and shortages of gas to get to work, scarcity of everyday items that were plentiful during the Trump administration.

Say it isn’t so, and I’d wager Sleepy Joe will say just that.

You have a lot of time on your hands to focus on problems in other areas.
Maybe it's time to use that productively.
Find the answer to that Arizona is going to run out of water.
I'll wait, but I sure won't hold my breath.

Wouldn't mind seeing Hollywood burn to the ground, the Hollywood sign, the movie studios, celebrity homes, god willing!

What's the Republican solution to inner-city crime?

Violent crime rates, including homicide were substantially higher in the 80’s- mid 90’s throughout the US.

Giuliani took credit for cleaning up NYC.

What he does not mention is that violent crime including homicide substantially declined throughout the US, regardless of strategy or lack thereof. There is no consensus among criminologists as to why, other than Giuliani had nothing to do with it.

Large cities have more people, thus good, bad and ugly. 80% of the population live in metro areas.

Most large cities trend Democrat. Oklahoma City, Jacksonville and Miami are Republican cities that are certainly no bed of roses.

Austin, by far, is the fastest growing metro area in the US. Mayor Adler ( D) won a second term with 59% of votes in a 7- way contest.

It has been another wild weekend of shooting in a part of Chicago. Three officers were also wounded. Most shootings are gang related. Anyone related to or in physical proximity to a gang member becomes a target.

Nearly 4 weeks ago a car was ambushed in the drive through lane at a Mc Donald’s. The driver, a gang member and his 7 year old in the back seat were shot. The girl did not survive.
Less than 3 hours later a similar incident played out at a Popeyes dive- thru lane. Another ambush.

The vast majority of Chicago is safe and people don’t worry about getting shot or becoming a victim of violence.

Perhaps you should start a thread on that since you seem so concerned. As to the topic at hand, Chicago is a cesspool of crime and Beetlejuice and the powers that be enable it.

The Wild won a big playoff hockey game against Las Vegas and you could see how pumped the guys in the newsroom were because the game just ended in OT right before the newscast...but the poor bastards had to segue from that to reporting all the murders in Minneapolis starting with a teenage girl who got shot in the head while jumping on her trampoline in her own backyard. Hell of a shot I would say, Marines could use the guy.

The Democrats have absolutely destroyed a once beautiful and safe city.
