This time for claiming America has a gun problem, while seemingly ignoring the effects of Democrat attacks on law enforcement.<\/p>\n<p>The discussion set off during a Monday <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=INe2ghEld8g\">briefing<\/a> when she was asked about soaring crime rates in the country. The reporter pointed out 12 mass shootings over the weekend, which left at least 29 injured in Democrat-led New York City.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Psaki asked if America has a violent crime problem, after hearing stats from Chicago over the weekend. She then says America has a gun problem and touts additional gun control measures.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KatiePavlich\/status\/1396864347071254541?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 24, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Experts have attributed recent upticks in crime to de-policing in response to Black Lives Matter riots.
