Minorities oppose Democrats 'Defund the Cops' policies
The New York Times was forced to admit what has been obvious for a while: Minority communities don’t support progressives’ radical views on criminal justice.
Democrats most left-wing supporters claim their calls to “defund the police” will help minority communities, but those communities know the truth.
From the Times:
In a contest that centered on crime and public safety, Eric Adams, who emerged as the leading Democrat, focused much of his message on denouncing progressive slogans and policies that he said threatened the lives of “Black and brown babies” and were being pushed by “a lot of young, white, affluent people.” A retired police captain and Brooklyn’s borough president, he rejected calls to defund the Police Department and pledged to expand its reach in the city.
Black and brown voters in Brooklyn and the Bronx flocked to his candidacy, awarding Mr. Adams with sizable leading margins in neighborhoods from Eastchester to East New York. Though the official winner may not be known for weeks because of the city’s new ranked-choice voting system, Mr. Adams holds a commanding edge in the race that will be difficult for his rivals to overcome.
As the Times admitted, the evidence provided by Adams’ support in New York shows “a disconnect between progressive activists and the rank-and-file Black and Latino voters who they say have the most to gain from their agenda.”
...
The Defund the Cops movement has been pushed by BLM which is basically a criminal support group. The times they are most likely to protest is when a black is killed while resisting arrest. The deaths of blacks do not seem to matter when they die at the hands of another black criminal. The law-abiding members of the minority community support the cops and they know they would be put at the mercy of criminals if the cops were not around.
