Today’s read is from columnist Mark Alexander. Here’s an excerpt:

There was an unprecedented spike in murders nationwide in 2020, which spilled over into 2021 and 2022. That included significant increases in the number of “active shooter” and “mass shooter” incidents in those years — and there will be new records set in Demo-controlled urban centers again this year.

What happened?

The record violence we’re seeing now is irrevocably linked to the fact that, in 2020, Democrats at the national, state, and local levels willfully provoked and promoted mass lawlessness while they simultaneously demoted law enforcement capability. They empowered their Marxist Black Lives Matter thugs and their anarchist antifa legions to riotous violence in the name of “social justice” in response to what they errantly claimed was “systemic racism.”

This violence is thus the direct result of empowering these mobs, and it is their effluent that accounts for the vast majority of active and mass assailants nationwide.

What data supports that assertion? Read on.
