They'll go on, and on, and on, and on, and on about January 6

But you never do hear them addressing the real issues in this country...imagine that?

A 55.5% increase in the city of Chicago. And here everybody was...thinking the 2019 number was bad.

The Left is too busy dealing with what THEY think the real issues in this Country are.

Sadly, my hometown, Louisville, has all those cities beat, going from 92 in 2019 to 173 in 2020, an increase of nearly 90%. And in January 2021, the city has had 15 murders, up from 7 last year. Grim stats. Overt segregation, gangs, no family structure to speak of, horrible mayoral leadership and Covid shutting down schools, community centers, churches, etc. have escalated this.

For context, there have been at least 80 murders in the city annually since 2015, and between 40-60 in the first half of the decade.

It's insane the amount of propaganda you're willing to swallow.

So half the country is now categorized as domestic terrorists.

Good luck with that going forward. You're going to need it.

You're obviously delusional and in denial. Chances of that changing are a million to one.

Kansas City set homicides records this year as well. Nobody talks about it, but talking to cops, its almost all drug / gang related, like Chicago.

How long until Congress legislates a name for the 'memorial fence', commemorating the unlawful siege on the Capital while Congress was in session?

I think a reflecting pool or two or five...or just one GIGANTIC one to represent the FEAR felt by AOC...that would be a nice touch.
