The vote to abolish the police was June 12th, but the city charter prevents it from taking effect. So they contented themselves with the budget reduction. Subsequently the city had the largest increase in violent crime in years.
Liberals refuse to see the correlation between reduced police presence & increased crime.
Conservatives, at least the ones with Tommie-poo's tragically limited cognitive skills, don't understand that correlation does not equal causation.
However, if you want to use Tommie-poo logic to talk about virtually anything, here's how you do it:
1. Something happens that you don't approve of.
2. Then something else happens that you also don't approve of.
3. You then claim that the former event caused the latter.
4. If you're a conservitard Trumper nimrod, you then slather posts on message boards and social media, crowing about how you predicted that the latter event would happen.
You know, I've tried many, many times to explain to stupid people that when A happens, then B happens, that does NOT mean that A caused B. But it's like trying to explain the theory of relativity to someone's cocker spaniel. I should probably give up trying.
