US Cities See Unexplained Rise in Violent Crimes This Year

Violent crimes — from homicides and rapes to robberies — have been on the rise in many major U.S. cities, yet experts can't point to a single reason why and the jump isn't enough to suggest there's a trend.

Still, it is stumping law enforcement officials, who are seeking a way to combat the problem.

Unexplained? The whole country is in continuous rage.

Start with that idiot who, at Obama's first State of the Union address shouted "you lie." Would anyone get away with doing this to Reagan? or Bush? or McCain?

Continue to all the "gatherings" and rallies when many carry guns in the open.

Next to the offensive racial cartoons of the Obamas, some distributed by local Republican chapters.

All this, of course, leads to the vulgarity, "in your face" of Trump and the violent events in his rallies.

People like Trump because he "says things as they are." Like what? Besides the "rapists" Mexicans, the untrustworthy Muslims, encouraging everyone to have nuclear weapons - what else has he said except calling names of his opponents, or anyone who is perceived as having offended him?

You want to explain the violent crime? Look no farther than the GOOP party.
