    Fast Facts on the Two-Decade Red State Murder Problem
    In March of 2022, we released a report that found murder rates in 2020
    were 40% higher in Trump-voting states than Biden-voting states. In our follow-up report, we studied homicide data going back to 2000 to see if
    this one-year Red State murder epidemic was an anomaly. It was not.
    Despite a media narrative to the contrary, a wide and widening Red State
    murder gap has spanned the past two decades.

    This fact sheet highlights some of the most illuminating takeaways from
    our analysis.

    The Two-Decade Red State Murder Problem
    The murder rate in the 25 states that voted for Donald Trump has exceeded
    the murder rate in the 25 states that voted for Joe Biden in every year
    from 2000 to 2020. For the past 21 years, the top 10 murder rate states
    have been dominated by reliably red states, namely Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Missouri. From 2000-2020, the per capita Red State murder
    rate was 23% higher than the Blue State murder rate. If Biden states had
    the same murder rate as Trump states, they would have seen 5,000 more
    murders in 2020 alone. Between 2000 and 2020, they would have suffered an additional 45,400 murders. Between 2000 and 2020, the Red State murder gap
    has steadily widened from a low of 9% more per capita red state murders in
    2003 and 2004 to 44% more per capita red state murders in 2019, before
    settling back to 43% in 2020. Since 2000, murder rates have increased
    39.4% in red states and just 13.4% in blue states. Even when murders in
    the largest cities in red states are removed, overall murder rates in Trump-voting states were 12% higher than Biden-voting states across this 21-year period and were higher in 18 of the 21 years observed. Source:

    Newly released body camera footage shows Minneapolis police
    officers allegedly celebrating the "hunting" of anti-police
    brutality protesters just five days after the murder of George Floyd.

    In one video, a protester yells: “We’re unarmed! This is America.
    We can say what we want!”

    In response, an officer appears to shoot at the protester with
    rubber bullets.

    Floyd's death set off months of protests against police violence
    and racism. The city of Minneapolis, where Floyd was killed by
    then-MPD officer Derek Chauvin, set a curfew in response to the
    unrest.

    Minneapolis police are conducting an internal investigation into
    police force against anti-police brutality protesters.
    Minneapolis Police Department

    The body cam footage released to the public by the court captures
    the police department's enforcement of the 8 p.m. curfew: Officers
    firing rubber bullets at numerous people out on the streets in an
    attempt to forcefully clear them of demonstrators. Some officers
    can be seen and heard celebrating and even fist-bumping over their
    successful hits.

    Aren't you the one that wants only police to have "assault weapons?"
