That is a classic look back at FAFO.

From 1950 in NY, murder 2.5xed to 1965 crime was rising drastically.
quote:

After race riots and rising concerns about “urban unrest,” President Johnson’s Law Enforcement Assistance Administration (LEAA) began funneling federal funds to local police departments for equipment and training.

Those concerns were coming from urban citizens.
Looking at NY, murder 2.5xed, violent crime 4xed from 1965 to 1980 robbery 5xed with no real population change
quote:

In 1969 the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) creates one of the first SWAT teams (Special Weapons and Tactics), a model that was soon adopted nationwide.

Reagan went nuts further militarizing the police under the guise of fighting the War on Drugs in the 1980s.

And then robbery fell to 10% of what it was in 1980. Murder to 25%.

You heard so many liberals who have their own Robin Hood legends that you ignore that post 1960 the data shows a massive increase in crime of all types.

We have data, this wasn't a made up crisis. City people were getting murdered, robbed, and burglered.

Reagan saved a lot of lives.
The crack epidemic had a lot of causes, some of which are heavily rooted in welfare.

Look, you have your happy story and you only care about your side, but the world is far more complex then you pretend.

There were options, the progressive one was creating more problems, so the nation cracked down on crime. All the while Marxists in their ivory towers attacked the nation of behalf of a murderous communist backer, the Soviet Union.
But those fools wrote the books you read, leaving out details and facts that disagree with them.

Why are you so defensive? I only mentioned the race riots because they were the justification for militarization decades before 9/11.

They were living in the homes of families that included suicide bombers. On purpose.

They were playing chicken with Israeli tanks and bulldozers on purpose. They were running up and confronting Israeli soldiers at checkpoints where suicide attacks had occurred.

They wanted to push the boundary and envelope to raise awareness for their cause.

when you travel to a foreign country you should know that your rights and expectations of American LEO dont apply there

I have travelled all over the world and I know better than to protest the local government or antagonize the local LEO, the military or even citizens. If you do, then you take the risks and get what you get.

here she would have been arrested for interfering with or obstructing official acts. Unfortunately she was not in America and her actions ended in tragedy. It was terrible but 100% avoidable on her part. The Israeli involved said it was accident and the courts agreed.

Judging by that picture I don't the operator could see her. Maybe he assumed she would step aside assuming he saw her prior?

I think the Chinese student who stood in front of a tank in Tienamin Square was brave and honorable. Some people understand that there are causes greater than themselves.

Well, you must have skipped basic logic 101 in 5th grade. If they handn't elected Hamas terrorists into power in 2007 they wouldn't be starving right now would they?

You’re lying again? Do you ever get tired of it? Honest question, I’m fascinated with the lefts capacity for dishonesty. I couldn’t do it, I’d be physically ill and paranoid if I lied the way you guys do.

Something needs to balance out the Israel cucks, eager to send more Americans to die for their greatest ally.

I'm not sure if it's your single narrative great men worldview.
Or it's how you refuse to process data and do your own primary research.

It's some combination, that refuses to give most humans their own agency.

Nothing happens in a vacuum.
The race riots had roots in the great migration, where the descendents of slaves moved north to work in industrial areas.

It created a vibrant culture that was often at odds with the existing people who built that city.
This was similar to the struggles of the Irish and Italians.
But due to a number of factors, including racial bias, the "white" groups including Hispanics were a step ahead of African Americans in the 1950s. (Though the city builders would not have referred to any of them as "white').

Then came drugs and welfare.
We sent our desegregated army to Vietnam, many soldiers came back with a habit for drugs.

Mexico really increased the amount of drugs produced in response.

So no, it wasn't just Johnson and Reagan acting in a bubble.

That's why I'm defensive, you have a reflex towards the world view you read in the small number of "studies" you read a book about.

It's like you don't care about solutions, only blame.

The same fundamental problems are incarcerating and killing people of all races.

Black Americans were just the last large group of urban poor, and got hit the hardest by the welfare drugs epidemic.

But yes, keep repeating the lie that it was two great men that randomly decided to militarize the police.

That's the irony in this story ... Hamas and Palestinians would have killed her themselves given the chance.
