Michael Ramirez for July 08, 2021

Democrats are soft on crime? It isn’t the democrats that pardoned traitors.

Gorrell is soft in the head.

The GQP saturate the U.S. with guns then blame the Democrats for the accelerated gun violence.

Crime spree? I like how Biden is being blamed for crime rates during Trump’s presidency. The only things dumber than the GOP are the people who believe them.

Up one side and down the other. And you leftists

are giving them a pass. Excellent depiction, Mr. Ramirez, telling it like it is.

Trump used the US justice system as his own whipping post. Illegally pardoned criminals in order to obstruct justice.

Gee, Ramirez, where were you in 2020, before the election?

Let me guess, that doesn’t fit in your propaganda narrative.

There’s nothing like a corporate cartoon which beats a falsehood to death. First, crime goes up during economic crises and during the summer. Second, “defund the police” doesn’t mean what is so implied in the cartoon. Third, there’s no connection between “liberal policies” and crime. Laughably, our problem is with “prison industries”, another form of welfare for the wealthy.

Biden’s bill provides more money for police forces. GOP votes against it. GOP supports the insurrectionists who beat up police. Don’t try to say the GOP supports the police. Actions speak louder than words.

This is right out of the clear, blue sky. You got nothing better, Ramirez?

When will Republicans make the connection between easy access to ever-more-efficient human killing machines and violent crime?

Pure crap, Mike.

It’s the GOP who takes away funds for police, etc. THIS IS AN OUTRIGHT LIE! ( GOP motto: if you say it enough times, it become their truth and their believers will follow, )

Another rehash, Michael? Soft on crime? May I remind you of January 6th? When the reTrumplicans show that they really support law and order, then you can try to shovel your BS. Until then stuff it.

Yes, let the Democrats prosecute the wealthy tax evaders, men who assault women by grabbing them by the p*ssy, and cartoonists who cheat on their taxes. That’s the Dems I want to see.

The GOP Leadershit will eventually claim that the 06 January insurrectionists stormed the Capitol to protest the allegedly rising crime rate precipitated by the repeated refusal of the GOP Leadershit to fund anti-crime, pro-Law Enforcement federal legislation AND to support the insurrectionists’ right to break all the local and federal laws that blocked their breaching the Capitol, invading the Capitol, vandalizing the Capitol, & murdering Law Enforcement Officers who tried to enforce the law and whose efforts saved the lives and the well being of many, many GOP Leadershit quislings who now turn their backs on Law Enforcement nationwide.

Be a lot less crime if America followed the NRA logic. Trouble is that not everyone yet, has a gun.

Only a tiny vocal minority of the Democratic Party are soft on crime. The vast majority of the party members do not support violence in our cities.

Crime is down 90% since the W Bush days. Find another falsehood to scare the sheep with!

Crime and the CRT will be the cudgel used against the Democrats in 2022, and it will work.

There is only one car in this race, and if it finishes America looses.

The first sign of a society on the brink of collapse is when they start letting people use the sidewalk for a bathroom. The second sign is pretending the first problem doesn’t exist.

Republicans are too busy destroying democracy to do anything positive for the USA.

and don’t forget the tax cheats & con men

Whatever happened to the ‘Pulitizer Prize’ WINNER?

[ Or was that Prize given for distortion? ]

Excellent toon. Well stated!

Its the words of the Dems that are responsible for an increase in Crime not the fact that we have Millions more guns of the streets!

that is some Logic.

Sure, all crime is solely the Democrats’ faults. Just like that insurrection attempt on 1/6/21…

Odd that Ramirez links stock car racing to rising crime – when so many stock car racing fans support the conservatives…

Ironic that the fender patch states “blame everyone else”. Isn’t that what Republicans are doing?

Didn’t know that NASCAR had VW Bugs, either that Ramirez had to Squeeze it into that Panel.

One of the major reasons for the high crime rate is the liberal governors and mayors releasing criminals, virtually emptying the prisons and the Democrat Attourney Generals refusing to prosecute criminals. Added to this misery Democrat rulers have either rewritten laws or otherwise told their police force to ignore many crimes. Shoplifting has gotten so bad in some places like San Francisco and Portland that many stores that serves poorer communities have closed down.

Conservatives pretend crime rates aren’t rising in cities that haven’t made cuts to police budgets. But when they do acknowledge it, they’ll just blame people of color, poor people, and immigrants.

So the strategy is to just ignore the past 4 years huh? Nah… we remember how the right acted … don’t try to claim to be the tough on crime party anymore, nor the party of fiscal responsibility nor the party of family values and definitely not the party of self responsibility.

That is true of everyone who still supports

LIES and Corruption are just two out of thousands of other criminal items that Democrats have always endorsed.

Sure Ramirez, sure! Come here buddy… Pat Pat! Feel better now?

Democrat Communist China Bots enjoy placing the blame on everyone else, Democrat Communist China Bots deny every crisis that their Savior, “The Leftist Communist Party Regime”, creates.

Well drawn Mikey. Absolute twaddle, but well drawn twaddle nonetheless.

Defund the police was worded poorly – it should have been de-militarize the police. SWAT teams are sent far too often, flash bang grenades are thrown into homes (including severely injuring a baby in a crib IN THE WRONG HOUSE), and police empty their high-capacity weapons (Laquan McDonald) without a single thought, no-knock warrants granted too easily (Breonna Taylor; the one the police were looking for was already in custody). There needs to be more money used for public support, including for mental health. In my county, police used to have to work in the jail before becoming police officers, which gave them an opportunity to work in a controlled environment with prisoners WITHOUT A GUN.

Ramirez, the REPUBLICANS have repeatedly voted AGAINST funds for the police.

I’ll repeat that – the REPUBLICANS have repeatedly voted AGAINST funds for the police.

Chris Wallace from Fox even called the Repubs out on this.

As usual, Michael hit’s the nail squarely on the head. Well done, Michael!!
