Joe Biden Warns “Don’t Go To Flint, Michigan, You’ll Get Raped And Murdered”

Bet the Flint Chamber of Commerce simply loved having Joe Biden in town

(Weekly Standard) In Flint, Michigan, Vice President Joe Biden suggested that more rapes and murders could occur if President Barack Obama’s jobs bill is not passed.

“In 2008, when Flint had 265 sworn officers on their police force, there were 35 murders and 91 rapes in this city,” Biden said. “In 2010, when Flint had only 144 police officers, the murder rate climbed to 65 and rapes–just to pick two categories–climbed to 229. In 2011, you now only have 125 shields. God only knows what the numbers will be this year for Flint if we don’t rectify it.”

The vice president also seemed to suggest that the Obama administration’s first stimulus is the reason rapes and murders were not even higher in 2010 and 2011.” And God only knows what that number would have been had we not been able to get a little bit of help,” Biden said.

Gotta love him: crime went up and the number of police officers went down, despite the Porkulus, but, it would’ve been worse without. Hey, just a thought, perhaps the cops in Flint decided to move to better pastures? Anyhow, if you don’t pass Obama’s “jobs” bill, you’ll get raped and murdered in Flint.

Jammie Wearing Fool: Using Biden’s logic, should Obama be held responsible for the reduction in the number of police officers?

    Man, gotta love that Joe Biden; every time he opens his mouth, he stabs Obama in the back.

  2. It is probably the Republicans fault that Flint and Detroit have such high crime rates- I mean, they’ve run those cities for decades with their tea party policies of limited government, personal responsibility, and low taxes… wait, Democrats have run those cities on high regulation, high taxes, and easy welfare policies- and now they have high crime problems… head is exploding- this means that perhaps Democrats’ model of governance is bad… spinning… so dizzy…

    Reading in the Carolina Journal that the money for teachers etc is calculated in Zero’s jobs bill state by state but that for all states there is only one years worth of money. To get it the states must agree to employ each state worker for two years. Wouldn’t want a big round of cops and teachers getting the axe come September 2012.
    What a despicable creature El presidenti is.

    Great points, all of you posters.

    Especially that of the largely Democrat strongholds in states and cities with the worst records of crime unemployment and decay…it is a fact Jack.
    When will these folks learn that socialism SUCKS? And that Democrat = Socialist pretty much.

    But um Slow Joe, I wouldn’t go to Flint MI anyway.
