re: 1% of people account for 63% of all violent crimes

These judges keep letting these frickin thugs out with no bail, suspended sentences, and DA's choosing not to prosecute just to make a political statement
Just like a person with multiple DUI's how frickin many you gotta get to see significant jail time before you kill somebody and they will kill somebody

First off, murderers should at least be life-imprisoned. First-degree should be executed.

Imprison judges that let criminals go, only to go create more victims. If these judges face consequences for their actions, their bullshite will stop.

No doubt that a small group of repeat offenders drives most violent crime. But the U.S. already tried the “lock everyone up” approach for decades and ended up with one of the highest incarceration rates in the world while repeat-offense patterns barely changed.
The places that actually moved the needle focused on the known high-risk group, tightened supervision, and stopped the constant churn of the same people in and out of the system. A targeted-enforcement problem, not a volume problem.
A big part of the problem is the revolving door — guys get picked up for violent offenses and are back on the street in hours or days. When the same small group keeps getting released immediately, you’re basically guaranteeing the cycle continues. That's where the focus needs to be.

That's entirely false.
In the American colonies if someone was arrested for a "high crime" they were tried within a week or two and if found guilty they were immediately and publicly hanged in the town square.
And the murder rate was six times what it is now.
Don't believe me; look it up yourself.
And that was for any "high crime," not just murder. Stealing horses, for example.
For "misdemeanors," which could be anything from petty theft to blasphemy to adultery to idleness, the process was the same except instead of being hung you might be branded, you might be confined to the stocks (also in the public square), tarred and feathered, horsewhipped, or you might get a fine.
Not going to argue about this back and forth. I'll just refer you to El Salvador as a modern example.

Harsher sentences for repeat offenders. It’s bullshite violet criminals with 15-20 repeat offenses are walking the streets.

Thats why I said 500 people in each big city. If you just kept them in jail you reduce major crime almost immediately. And when out of jail those criminals influence new criminals.

Yeah, but think of what we gained by a couple generations of fatherless kids...

There is a solid rule of thumb in "workload" management that I, not coincidentally, picked up from folks who worked in parole.
Turns out that roughly 15% of your caseload generates about 85% of your problems. While it is not precise down to the engineering level, I find it to be true, generally, if your caseload/management burden is human beings.
In other words if you manage 100 people, about 15 will generate most, if not all, of your management challenges. I think that society wide this is likely true.

Locked up - yes.
Releases repeatedly to commit more crime…also yes.
The revolving door was, and still is, the issue.

Not true. Find me someone who's just in for a dime bag of weed and I'll show you a prisoner who pled down more serious charges because of a corrupt DA.

Ace, Very true and a great learning lesson for me many years ago. We had this 360 management thing where all your supervisors filled out a critique and sent it to some firm. They then brought in various managers to review the results.
Monitor said Trini, your supervisors gave you very good marks across all areas, except for one person, definitely an outlier, even took the time to write how you had a favorite because you had similar backgrounds etc. Youve got a problem there.
So I come back and I go out to work with Charlie. Charlie was the ole grizzled master sargeant of the facilities. I said "Charlie, let me ask you an honest question, who do you think is the best supervisor we have?" He said "Honestly, I think I am". I said "Charlie, I think so too, thats why I spend little time with you, I cant teach you shat. Billy on the other hand, I dont spend time with him because we both have college degrees, love sports, and are young. I spend time with him because he needs constant direction".
Lesson learned, dont assume because a person is doing a good job, that they know you recognize it, tell em often.

Also not exactly true, or at least not nearly to the degree people claim it is. At least half of what appears to be to only be drug offenses, are cases where plea deals were reached and violent crimes charges were dropped. Another lie of the muh “New Jim Crow” race baiting SJWs.

Is this supposed to make me not like him? The “accused,” meaning MS-13 gang members with arrest records, known crimes and their gang affiliation tattooed all over their bodies, as well as gang tattoos indicating they’re murdered people, even cops etc? Yeah, frick them, I’m not crying for them,

I’ve been in public education almost 30 years. The principals who go to a rough school and fix it all do one thing.
In every high school there are 8-12 kids who cause 90% of the serious discipline problems. The effective principals get rid of those kids and the rest see what happened to them and fall in line.
Same principle as how our justice system is supposed to work. Identify those who can’t live peaceably with others and put them somewhere where they have no contact with the law abiding.
Permissive schools and permissive cities are dangerous places.
