Biden Tried To Talk Crime This Week — And Failed – The Lid

Most Americans — and not just Republicans — are understandably anxious over rising crime occurring in major Democrat-run cities.

Polls have not only consistently shown crime as a top issue for voters, but close to half of the residents in places like Philadelphia reported feeling unsafe in their neighborhood, while two-thirds say they’ve heard gunshots near their homes this year. Nearly 400 people have been slain in Philadelphia in 2022 — a significant increase from the pre-pandemic and Black Lives Matter era  — with higher numbers in places like Chicago and elsewhere.
