Barrasso Addresses Rising Crime in Democrat Run Cities

U.S Senator John Barrasso (WY-R) spoke on the Senate floor Thursday about the rising crime in America’s Democrat run cities. Barrasso said Americans want safe communities – they want Democrats and all Americans to stop coddling criminals, to stand for public safety, and to stop this reckless Democrat war on police.
Barrasso highlighted some of the cuts in funding for police in cities throughout the country.
According to the FBI’s uniform crime reporting program, St. Louis and Detroit were at the top of the 2020 list for most dangerous cities in America.

Ok, at it again Dr.. No credibility, can’t trust you or your GOP cronies. Only trying to gain political advantage, you say others (dems) let crime happen but you and the GOP don’t. Sure. Not a word about the ransacking of the US Capitol on your watch! And not a word on GOP efforts to undermine an investigation and a legitimate election! Some defenders of the US constitution you and your collaborators turn out to be. As is said nowadays, having power shows who you are. Now that you’ve shown yourselves, I say we can’t trust this democratic experiment in government to you and your GOP. No integrity, Dr. You have eyes only on self serving power grab.

There’s a good little toady John You will be rewarded in the trump gutter like meadows and nunes. It is very sad to see a good man like you fooled by the great orange insurrectionist. You had more substance and ethics than that, when I voted for you. SAD !!!

more employment opportunity in the especially in the larger cities will help…intense examination, evaluation and intervention of societal problems is needed no doubt

There is no limit to this man’s hypocrisy. If he was so worried about violence maybe he should have promoted the bi-partisan committee investigating the violence on January 6 when the Trump/Barrasso insurrectionist attempted to overthrow our government. This is just smoke and mirrors to distract the masses away from the fact that the noose is tightening around Trump who will be found guilt of dereliction of duty.

I dont know what these big blue city mayors were thinking when they defunded the police, or in San Franciscos case make it legal to loot up to $750 per each incident. Provide the incentive, and human nature takes over. Those folks who voted for this, and are thinking of leaving, should stay and fix the problem they helped create.

Well, Senator, as you can see from the various comments on this board as to your recent statement, the old saying still holds true: the flak is always most intense directly over the target. You can all tell when you’ve hit on a valid point because the left will scream, jump up and down, light their hair on fire, and throw themselves on the floor. Thanks for pointing out the FACT that the crime rates in these “blue” cities are out of control. They’ll of course find a way to blame “Orange Man Bad” for that, as they do everything else, but it shouldn’t stop you from citing facts. Veritas vos liberabit, as the Romans used to say.

Actually 4 0f the top 5 cities on the list were : Muskeon Heights Michigan, Myrtle Beach SC, Memphis Ten. and Little Rock Arkansas- Barrasso lied, and you swallowed it whole. But that’s not exactly shocking news is it.
