The number of policemen and women killed in 2021 exceeded the number of police deaths for every year since 1995. Biden and the Democrats’ efforts to defund the police and label the police perpetrators have now led to widespread murders of police across the country.
The New York Post reports on this terrible news:
More cops were killed in the line of duty during President Biden’s first year of office than any other year since 1995 — and a law-enforcement group says the driving force is the growing anti-cop sentiment, according to a new report.
Seventy-three officers were intentionally killed in the line of duty in 2021 — a nearly 59 percent increase over 2020, when 46 cops were murdered, Fox News reported Sunday, citing the FBI’s database on officers killed in action.
“We believe it’s a combination … of the George Floyd protests — riots, if you will; a general feeling of a preference for less law enforcement; and less prosecution and less policing,” Jason Johnson, president of the Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund and a 20-year police veteran, told Fox News.
“Law enforcement officers have essentially been marginalized and demoralized and cast aside and encouraged now to enforce the law. And so we’ve seen massive jumps in the homicide rate in cities across America,” he said.
This is exactly why the President of the New York City Police Benevolent Association Patrick Lynch delivered remarks on the final night of the Republican National Convention. He knew that only President Trump would stand up for and protect the police. This is why Americans voted for President Trump in record-setting numbers.
