I don’t think that’s true anymore. Especially in places like New Orleans.

What do you disagree with them on? Be specific. Thanks.
One example would be larceny and theft. What's going on with people looting stores without any fear of reprisal is just beyond me.
I understand we (taxpayers) can't afford to build more and more prisons. I understand we have the highest incarceration rate in the world. I understand prison isn't really reforming people the way it's intended to. I understand nonchalantly throwing around felonies at young people leads to more unproductive citizens as they mature and can't get jobs. I understand our prisons are filled with non-violent drug offenders.
These are all problems with the CJ system and, yes, I do believe major reforms are necessary. But to just STOP prosecuting property crimes is just stupid and counterproductive.

Move out of the cities and towns.

That stat is even more alarming when you consider the 13.1% includes females - in reality over 37% of violent crimes are committed by ~6.5% of the population....
Its way less than even that.
There are more black females than black males, on top of that the vast majority of the crimes are black males between the ages of like 13-30 or something.

Literally all of this is emotional blubber. You know how you stop crime? You put people who commit crime behind bars.

Point me to one of these new-age DAs that has put a policy in place to stop prosecuting violent crime.
I mean, if that's the case, that's fricked up. But I followed several of those candidates' social media during election season and I can't, for the life of me, remember one of them saying they were going to stop prosecuting violent criminals.
And I'm talking policy, btw. Not one or two or slipped through the cracks which, if you're being honest, has happened forever.

Enabling bad behavior is what gave birth to the criminal element, and enabling bad behavior is what causes it to flourish.
Don’t think there’s no devious agenda behind this either. It plays to humanities worst attributes, laziness, apathy, immorality, and deliberate irresponsibility. The net result from this will eventually be the destruction of this country from top to bottom. It’s what has happened to all great societies. Take your pick throughout history, and you’ll find that to be true. The biggest problem as i see it though is those who know better didn’t speak up, and for whatever reason were silenced and intimidated into not speaking up for fear of being seen as the heavy, the meanie, or much worse.

For a thinking man, it's far more than "emotional blubber", unless you think the CJ system should be without nuance and a grasp of the overall sociological and societal impacts of mass incarceration.

I have a newly elected one in my community that just let a rapist and another murderer off without a fight.
From what I hear on the street, violent criminals are flocking to my community because they think nothing will happen to them.
At some point I might be safer living inside a prison.

Pretending that we can "reform" the system by letting out criminals and hoping for a different outcome is retarded.

You got a news report I can read? Was it his policy or just incompetence? My county is full of incompetence and "good ole boy" workings. Pisses me off to no end.

It is how they act as DAs.
There was a post on here, I think yesterday, where a progressive DA gave a man, who set his pregnant GF on fire, only $5k bond.
I could also post the actual prosecution statistics for NOLA comparing the previous DA to this one, which is night and day.
The actual fact is, the party you so vociferously support has put in place DAs and legislation that severely undermined society’s ability to prosecute crimes, even violent ones.
There are always consequences to certain actions, and this is a consequence of the platforms you support.

First of all, they don't have to say it. They can just do it.
You can look at the accepted charges rates for them vs. previous DAs.
They are almost all accepting charges for violent crimes at a MUCH lower rate.
Beyond that...
When you decide you aren't going to prosecute a long list of crimes, that cascades up to larger crimes getting out of control.
Broken Taillight policing and prosecuting WORKS.

It is the DA's job to prosecute all crimes when committed to the full extent of the law.
If a Legislature wants to incorporate "nuance" they can.

This is all right wing propaganda. There is no crime problem in this country because my block is perfectly fine
