Riots Have Hit 48 Of America’s 50 Largest US Cities, New Study Finds

A new study out of Princeton University reveals that 48 out of the 50 largest cities in the United States have experienced riots associated with the Black Lives Matter movement since late May.

Despite the leftist media’s obsession with calling the fiery violence ‘mostly peaceful’, the data indicates that most cities are seeing some violent unrest.

The intent of the study appears to have been to bolster the ‘mostly peaceful’ narrative, as it notes that the perception of the trouble may have been influenced by “political orientation and biased media framing” as well as “disproportionate coverage of violent demonstrations.”

The findings are difficult to ignore, however, with almost every major city having experienced rioting.

Of the biggest 50 cities, only Fresno, California, and Mesa, Arizona have remained unaffected, according to the data.

In addition, when extended to the largest 100 cities by population, the study found that 74 have experienced riots.

Democrats completely ignored the unrest for months, before polls indicated that favourability was tanking and they adopted the ‘this is Trump’s America’ mantra.

The rise of violence in large cities is a contributing factor in an ongoing exodus. A recent survey carried out by the Manhattan Institute found that two in five New Yorkers want to leave the city.

Figures show that shootings have doubled and murders are up 50 per cent on the same period last year in New York.

    The dimorats enable and coddle the arrogant indignant self-righteous snowflakes fresh from their left-loon academia brainwashing with their knee-jerk lunatic liberal propaganda –

    They intentionally ignore the extremely difficult job facing our police departments – daily dealing with the worst of the worst – daily chasing dangerous violent criminals who would not hesitate a second to kill cops to get away – daily putting their lives on the line with just one or two cops facing gangs of killers –

    They intentionally ignore the harsh reality – the cops can never afford to lose a fight – can never afford to let a crook gain control –

    To maintain control of situations the cops have to do what it takes – kneel on necks – shoot people who resist – what ever it takes to control the situation – otherwise the cop ends up in a coffin –

    What ever it takes so the cop gets to go home to their family that night –
