This doesn't make sense, we were nice to the criminals, we let them out of prison, so why is crime up?
A few things come to mind:
1) induce a state of emergency. In as many locations as possible.
2) demand gun grabbing and suspension of rights and freedoms
3) force lockdowns and at the same time coordinate massive election fraud if not suspension of elections
Sound about par for the course? It certainly does with the Bidenista regime in the wheelhouse.
