Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) expressed his support for Law Enforcement and sent a message to supporters of the defund the police movement.
Kennedy posted a campaign ad over the weekend to Twitter.
“I know the difference between criminals and their innocent victims,” Kennedy captioned the video.
He said during the video, “Violent crime is surging in Louisiana. Woke leaders blame the police. I blame the criminals.”
Kennedy added, “A mom should not have to look over her shoulder when she’s pumping gas. I voted against the early release of violent criminals and I opposed defunding the police.”
Concluding his message, Kennedy said, “Look, if you hate cops just because they’re cops, the next time you get in trouble, call a crackhead.”

During an appearance on Fox News last week, Kennedy shared how he believes the United States can solve the problem of rampant crime.
“If we want to get control of this crime problem that we have, we’re going to have to do a couple of things. Number one, we’re going to have to have more cops. In New Orleans, in my state, needs 2,000 cops on the street — we’ve got less than 1,000,” Kennedy said.
He argued the country will also need“to pay our cops. You’re not going to get cops to work in this woke environment without paying them. Number three, and this might be the most important: Our political leaders need to stand behind our cops.”
