re: Federal agents heading to Memphis, St. Louis to help address surge in violent crime

Multi generational single parent households, lack of education, massive dependence on welfare. That's the common factor across all colors, creeds, and codes

Also, all run by Democrats for an extended period of time I bet

The fact that he never hits the streets again after the initial arrest and the quick trial and sentencing means that crime quickly falls. All the politicians take a bow, feds leave, new generation of criminals takes over, cycle repeats.

This is intentional. What else should we expect when there are so many fatherless homes because they're all locked up? The problem with these programs is a lot of them were arrested for non-violent drug charges, but they tack on these gun offenses just because they had one, on the basis that these people were potentially a violent threat. And then when/if they get out, their job prospects are limited due to their record, but they've made a whole lot of great new friends and picked up some great new skills.

But these programs 100% prove that the vast majority of crime is committed by a very small part of the community.

Right, the poor. Things would be so much better if we could just get rid of the poors!

no one knows how to follow through after solving the immediate problem. So it just repeats itself. I know I don’t know the answer but we should be jailing these fricks until someone figures it out.

We should definitely continue jailing the actually violent people, but we should probably stop jailing the non-violent ones, at least not for such long sentences on trumped-up gun charges when they didn't even use the gun. Because doing so guarantees the loss of any potential productivity and the possibility of building family wealth to break the cycle of crime. Spare me the "they would never amount to anything anyway" because most people have potential given the right guidance.
