Amid many calls from politicians and others on the Left to “defund the police” came some accompanying startling statistics that they’d like you to believe are completely coincidental or even flat-out false:

Cause, meet effect.

This is the Babylon Bee, right?
The natural result of defunding the police is an increase in violence and crime, and these idiots pretend they are unrelated? https://t.co/MrtEfQIGMm— WearingMyMask (@JonathanAEvers) July 7, 2021
"We don’t have much evidence indicating that hiring more police officers or giving them more resources will reduce crime."
Is this a joke? 😂 https://t.co/EdVbnDgZIi
