It blows my mind how many people on here saying, the homicide rate increase, had nothing to do with defunding the police. That’s just like if people suddenly started becoming deathly Ill, after the FDA allowed a new ingredient to be added into our foods, and after seeing all the adverse, deathly reactions, they decide to remove said ingredient. After a while, no one’s becoming sick, and all returns to normal. Then saying something along the lines of, “ The deadly ingredient had nothing to do with people becoming insanely sick, people were already sick before with the food they were eating”.

No, it's would be like if the FDA added an ingredient to food at the SAME TIME that a deadly disease was going around. Was it the extra ingredient or the deadly disease!? I guess we'll never know.

Was it defending the police (which never actually happened, sorry) or was it poverty and desperation that led to the increase in crime!? I guess we'll never know.
