you will lie to make your point as LSU Russian pointed out.
What did I lie about? You don’t think due process dictates that the accused is presumed innocent until proven guilty?

Then stop replying to me. You claim all these things about why I’m not worth your attention but you won’t stop giving it to me. Make that make sense.

Making fun of you and pointing out how you are constantly ignorant and wrong is worth 30 seconds of my time here and there. It doesn't take much effort.

do you think the criminal justice system is “functioning” in places like East Baton Rouge or Orleans parish?
That depends on what you mean by functioning.
I don’t think it’s effective in New Orleans. Not super familiar with cj in BR but it doesn’t look like it’s effective anywhere in the state. Unless efficacy is judged based solely on incarcerations.

Yes - let’s wait for dangerous people to commit a second crime before revoking bail or setting it higher.
Considering most arrests are not for violent offenses, this doesn’t really compute.

But you just say I’m wrong without proving anything. Because you either cannot or don’t know how to.

Do you feel like either city is safe?

I’d argue property crimes deserve just as much scrutiny as violent crimes at a certain level. Letting brazen theft happen is leading to failing cities. Weed =\= theft

That’s such a complicated question. I don’t feel unsafe in either city but unsafe things happen daily in both cities.
Both cities could certainly be safer.
If safety is judged based on arrests, convictions, incarcerations - I think we’d have to separate each by charges to get a more accurate picture of public safety. For example, domestic violence is abhorrent, but does that impact the general safety of the entire population of a city? Do drug charges impact the general safety of the entire population of a city?
What do you think?

I can agree. A statue of the Blessed Mother was stolen from my front garden about 5 years ago. That’s a property crime. My vehicle was stolen last year, which is also a property crime. Obviously they aren’t the same but my feelings were really hurt by both crimes. I kinda think both are indicative of a failing city because the stolen statue happened in broad daylight.

Very, very simple solution.
Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time.
I’ve never seen a productive law abiding citizen ever arrested for living life and obeying society’s laws. Not once.

I lived next to a gentrifying neighborhood in Houston that routinely had cars go missing in the middle of the night. I’d imagine those folks felt just as violated as a low level violent crime like a mugging.

I think the reform movement made a lot more sense when our cities were not lawless
Posted on 2/10/24 at 12:18 pm to NIH
Part of the reason our cities are lawless is lack of police nationwide. How can we fix that?

So, NYC likes letting loose those arrested for violent crimes on no bail.
How’s that working for them?
But on the other hand, the guy who was protecting subway riders is being treated as if he’s Son of Sam.

You just hurl insults because you’re too much of a redneck to come up with a coherent argument.
Instead of posting any sort of original idea, you only insult because you’re too insecure to have anyone disagree with your ideas (if you’re even capable of having any). You go for low-hanging fruit for upvotes from other middle-aged men so you can feel good about yourself. Bless your heart.

Do you believe everyone arrested is guilty? If not, clearly innocent people have been arrested.

Some areas have plenty of police.
Seems like the areas run by leftists who want to defund police, ignore crime, and coddle criminals are short on police.
What’s your opinion on that?
