Seems they are adding facts that have been missed. Is there a particular reason you want these facts suppressed?

LOL. "And how long have you been beating your wife?" babesh is adding facts, mixed with pure opinion, of his own choosing to also further a narrative. Is "Defund the police has caused skyrocketing property crime and violent crime." a verified (or even provable) fact? If so, what was omitted from that statement that would have made it less biased. And ultimately, how is he not committing the same sin as corporate media?

    > retail executives, police officers and city officials have attributed the surge to Proposition 47, a 2014 ballot measure that reclassified nonviolent larceny as a misdemeanor Your sources don't even support your opinion/narrative? If anything, I'm afraid your claim to the high ground has worsened.

      You're lying again. > In July, the Los Angeles City Council voted to slash $150 million from the LAPD budget. > Amid the wave of violent crime, Los Angeles voted to increase police funding.The Los Angeles County Metro voted to increase police funding by $36 million. > The city was even forced to reinstate its gun violence task force after disbanding the Gun Violence Reduction Team (GVRT) only months earlier. I'm genuinely curious. Do you think if you just scream something loudly and hysterically enough that it will become true? Or do you have some sort of higher goal that you feel can only be achieved by lying to people and that doing so is therefore justified? Or is it simply just malice?

      Apparently you can’t read because it isn’t just because it is a misdemeanor but because of the refusal of Chesa Boudin to prosecute. Look who is picking and choosing which facts to ignore and choosing to spin a narrative. Go watch all the news even of left sided news. There are a lot of complaints about how businesses and communities are hurt. There are increasing calls to fund the police and some communities are starting to do that. Even Chesa Boudin is now saying that businesses need to protected. Even London Breed is saying the same. They just arrested a person who was on a serial shoplifting spree. Police were complaining that they would arrest people and the DA would just let them free. https://youtu.be/2jrnhaLzCqA https://youtu.be/2jrnhaLzCqA https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/suspected-shoplifter-from-viral-video-at-san-francisco-walgreens-arrested-for-spree-of-thefts/ar-AALk3bE https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/suspected-shoplifter-fr... https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/san-francisco-confronts-surging-crime-drugs-and-homelessness-as-it-tries-to-bounce-back-from-covid-19/ar-AALmLGx https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/san-francisco-confronts...

        It's absolutely shocking that homicides are up in 2020 given that a good chunk of SF's population fled during the year and most of the bars/stores were closed and the streets were empty. If homicides were up in that environment, this is very, very bad news for 2021 and 2022.

  Which facts is it he's left out? You don't get to just lie and say he's doing it without stating which is being left out. So given that you are baselessly attacking him, and the only thing that drew you to him was the facts he stated; clearly you don't want him stating them. So again. I ask, why do you want those facts suppressed? And why are you being evasive about answering the question?
