I'll wait patiently for you to speak out against the incarceration of the J6 political prisoners.

What a sad attempt at trying to counter. Of course they deserve to be in prison

Half of the threads on the OT seem to be in some way related to out of control crime and corruption in Louisiana. Maybe Louisiana should be taking some notes on how to afford new prisons. And seeing the mass exodus that is occurring in CA, and the lawlessness that seems to be par for the course in most of their larger cities, Newsom should too.

La. tried that de incarceration thing. That was one of Jon Bel’s pet programs. That and his huge tax increase.

How did that work out?

BR is setting murder records. Drugs are killing people in record numbers. Gunfire is rampant in NO and BR. Crime is out of control. Oh and they can’t keep the juveniles they have locked up.

Bama knows.

These are just a few examples from page one of the OT now.

Kiss of Death

Carjacking

Murder

Target Loves Being Robbed

Worker Stabbed

Worker Suckerpunches Customer

Yeah, why do we need more prisons?

And Louisiana would be the most incarcerated state in the nation by a mile with his plan. Maybe 10 miles.

More and more this guy seems to be running for president of the blue states of America after the country splits in half. He’s trashing the states he has no chance of winning when he runs for president (first Texas, then Florida, now Alabama). What business does a governor of California have even talking about other states if he’s running for president (as he claims)?

Yes, I want to see all violent criminals and thieves locked away. Those that were let out because of covid can also go back to finish out their sentences. I want to see them all locked away.

The crime rate shows we don’t have anywhere near enough criminals locked up.

Perfect. Maybe decent people could then get within 10 miles of NOLA or Baton Rouge without getting mugged, carjacked, robbed, stabbed, shot and/or murdered. Sounds like an excellent plan.

They should build prisons for the goons that destroyed our lives and livelihoods to preserve their power using the Covid bogeyman.

I don't care if we have to build 10,000 more prisons. They aren't filled with innocent people. Why more? Because people are constantly let out because a more recent violent criminal needs a spot. Simple as that. We let violent offenders out early to stick in a new violent offender. Do we need more prisons? frick yeah and a lot of them.
