Geraldo Rivera: The urban crime spikes show government unable to keep us safe
Fox News
Fox News correspondent-at-large Geraldo Rivera said Tuesday a top role of government at all levels is to keep its constituents safe and secure, pointing to several major cities seeing violent crime surges over the past several months, and telling “The Story” that officials are therefore failing their people.
"Just imagine what happened as this violence is spiking… You have defund the police, this suicidal nonsense seeking to strip communities of the protection exactly as violent crime is soaring around the country," he said. "The violence in these big cities is breathtaking…It's brazen and ruthless. [Fox News correspondent Phil Keating just] showed Miami and the gunshots fired there [and] all the people that are dead and wounded." Rivera pointed specifically to Baltimore, Md., a city of about 600,000 that has been wracked by violent incidents even in otherwise touristy spots like the Inner Harbor.More Related News
