Americans are being forced to endure a significant spike in crime.
Blue state residents in big cities are particularly feeling the effects.
Now a Democrat-run city went up in flames and the reason why will leave you shaking your head in disgust.
The Los Angeles Rams won Super Bowl LVI, bringing the trophy back to the city for the first time since the Los Angeles Raiders won Super Bowl XVIII.
But the celebration in the city quickly descended into violence and chaos.
The rioting and looting that have plagued the city since 2020 propped up again as criminals used the Super Bowl victory as an excuse to run amok.
Fans gathered on Los Angeles streets to celebrate the LA Rams' Super Bowl win, but chaos broke out as shooting and violence erupted during the celebrations on Sunday.

It got so out of hand, people were setting off fireworks inside buses.
Los Angeles Times reporter Kevin Rector said, “People got inside the bus and were setting off fireworks inside of it. It’s smoking. One guy just passed me holding his injured hand screaming ‘f**k!’ Police moved in on bikes with sirens blazing—and crowd ran off.”
The Los Angeles Police Department also took to social media to get the mob to disperse.
LAPD Headquarters said, “We are seeing violent and destructive behavior by large crowds in the heart of the Downtown LA area. We have issued several dispersal orders and have a large police presence. Everyone that is part of those crowds, obey all dispersal orders and clear the streets immediately.”
It’s odd that Los Angeles would go this berserk over the Rams because the city has shown consistent disinterest in professional football.
Both the Rams and Raiders (who are currently in Las Vegas) were absent from the city for two decades, and nobody cared.
When the Rams played the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship game, there were more 49ers fans in the stadium.
Criminals and opportunists are using the Rams’ victory as an excuse to loot and cause mayhem.
This is one of the consequences of Democrats’ pro-crime policies.
