Did they also create a policy where police offers couldn't try and pursue or detain someone who is stealing less than 950?

Prop 47 was a social justice initiative to get more black and brown people out of the prisons.

He'll get back with you in a few hours on this. It takes time to clip and edit mashups from different Leftist websites to form a word salad response to your direct question. This guy is a recycled Chat GPT clown that uses pivot phrases to gaslight away from the actual subject matter.

There is a solution to this problem. It is called Constitutional carry. You don't have to fear violence if you are armed and well-trained in the proper use of your weapon.

I'm fine with the open door of low level criminals and the abdication of community safety by the government as long as the perps can be punished by the citizenry on the spot.

A few dead thieves will send a broader message than a shoplifter in jail.

you assumed that he was telling you the absolute and complete truth. That's your mistake. He was feeding you propaganda.

Second, if they know who the bad guys are, why are they so very weak that they can't get them and solve the problem?

It had nothing to do with inflation, it regarded social justice initiatives.

Even you are smart enough to understand this, put down the biases and wishcasting.

I suggest that YOU need to take your own advice, Roger.

When Texas raised the threshold between misdemeanor and felony from $20 to $40 more than a century ago, was it the result of "social justice initiatives?

EVERY state periodically adjusts this threshold upward, and they have been doing so since the time of the Revolution.

Have all of these many hundreds of adjustments arise from "social justice initiatives?" If not, when and where did the motivation suddenly change?

What are your clients saying?

There is really nothing to prevent the same overwhelming organized home invasions other than weaponry. If 30 ghetto rats attack your home and you don't have a gun, what could you possibly do? The same goes for strong arming people in vehicles, at private events, etc. We are reaching a new level of insanity that only dead perps can resolve. We need lots and lots of dead perps.

He loves his legal jargon to try and outsmart people. But the plain simple fact is they raised the limits of theft so the hoodrats can steal more and get away with it.

The upward revision of the threshold in California was enacted in 2010, LONG before the recent spate of organized retail theft (ORT), my Himalayan friend.

More than half of the states have increased the threshold since California did so, yet only a handful of those states have experienced significant ORT. The problem is something unique to those jurisdictions, NOT the routine nationwide adjustment of the thresholds.

To me, it would appear that the "unique" problem is indeed lack of enforcement, which I have said several times ITT.
