Democrat-Run Milwaukee’s 2022 Homicides More than Double 2019’s

Milwaukee, Wisconsin, set a record in 2022 with 224 homicides for the year, more than double the number of homicides witnessed in 2019.

FOX 6 reported that Milwaukee was at 214 homicides as of December 28, 2022, a figure which already doubled the 97 homicides of 2019.

Milwaukee ended 2022 with 224 homicides, The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel noted, exceeding the homicides in 2020 or 2021.

There were 190 homicides in 2020 and 193 in 2021, FOX 6 observed.

Ironically, 2020 set an annual homicide record that was broken by 2021 numbers. Now, 2022 numbers have broken the record set in 2021.

Breitbart News reported there were over 500 homicides in Mayor Jim Kenney’s (D) Philadelphia during 2022.

The violence in Philadelphia created a surge in law-abiding citizens applying for concealed carry permits and at 1:00 a.m. Sunday–one hour into 2023–a woman  with a concealed carry permit shot an alleged attacker.
