Crime went down because of all the lowlifes who were never born because of legal abortion.
Y’all pussiez are just beating around the bush. Why don’t you just say what you mean? Millions of little black babies have been killed before they got the chance to turn into thugs.

As a society we started cracking the frick down on crime with focused patrolling, mandatory minimum sentences, and generally not putting up with shite.
All the things the race baiters are now claiming is racist policing.

That drop in crime also tracks with increased criminal penalties enacted at the time.

Help me understand why in other countries, when they legalized abortion they saw similar drops in crime like the US 18 years later?
It is not a coincidence. There are numerous studies on it. It is the cold hard truth nobody wants to admit. Abortions help prevent crime from neglected and unwanted children raised in a difficult environment. It is a fact that has been proven.

Well crime has continued to decline greatly since the 70s
Because abortion became legal leading to less unwanted pregnancies leading to less parents not caring for their kids leading to less little shits growing into big shits as a result
So, sounds like we got a good thing here

Abortion, comp stat, and parts of the Biden “super predators” crime bill really drove down crime. The implementation of broken windows theory helped immensely too.
Funny how that crime bill will be used to attack Biden in the coming year by the left when it’s probably one of the only good things he’s ever done. It’s almost like democrats of today prefer crime.
Also, even though RICO has been around a bit before the 90’s it took a while for the effect to really hit. That and along with the Patriot Act (not a fan) really decimated the mafia compared to their power in the 70s and 80s.

Just a small part, but some crime like theft may not be reported due to insurance not covering your loss/high deductible plus they may raise your rates or drop you.

Because the bad actors are now in prison, leading LA to have or have had the highest incarceration rate in the whole damn world.

yeah this issue is a big strain on my libertarian, anti-police state beliefs. i do believe, due to statistical data and not personal opinion, that mass incarceration is the primary factor in disruption violent crime. however, on a personal-philosophical level, i hate mass incarceration. deep down, i fear what would happen if we implemented my personal policies on a national level.
