Sara Carter spoke directly to individuals on the ground in Minneapolis. Remnants of the 2020 riots are still prevalent across Governor Walz’s state and citizens are furious things have not rebounded. Uptown Minneapolis used to be busy and hustle and bustle. Many large companies including the giant Apple store had to be shut down never to be able to re-open. Police precincts that no longer exist are boarded up only to start to be rebuilt four years later. People in Minneapolis have left in droves and were forced to move to the suburbs because crime is soaring.
The staggering crime can be quantified; ever since Governor Walz took office, specific crime categories have increased by the following percentages:
Crime and aggravated assault increased 38.2 percent
Homicide increased 118.2 percent
Robbery increased 18.9 percent
Vehicle and motor theft increased 255.5 percent
Gunshot wounds increased by 70 percent
