When you were a kid in grammar school, every class had a trouble maker. Maybe there were two. That kid caused multiple disruptions. Without that one kid…the classrooms would be significantly more productive.

That model never changes. The degree of disruption is the only variable.

“a startling statistical analysis of gun crimes that shows most gun criminals are chronic reoffenders “

What’s startling is how effective the fake news propaganda has been.

Wasn’t taking those repeat offenders off the street the whole point of Three Strikes sentencing?

But because it affected black offenders disproportionately (as they were disproportionately committing the violent crimes), our Left decreed Three Strikes sentencing politically incorrect, and put these violent offenders back on the streets, with predictable results.

And you can’t talk about this explicitly without the nuclear option being deployed, and you are called a racist, deplatformed, depersoned, fired from your job, etc.

Is there anyone here on FR that's legitimately shocked by this fact?

Anyone? Bueller? Bueller??

Most people will take that as sarcasm.

But the radical left is serious about it. Math conflicts with their worldview, their basic assumptions about reality.

Therefore, math is racist and must be ignored.

So the same guns keep repeatedly committing crimes?

That is a possible takeaway from the headline, and how “progressives” think.

Parole Board chairman:
They’ve got a name for people like you H.I. That name is called “recidivism.”

Parole Board member:
Repeat offender!

Parole Board chairman:
Not a pretty name, is it H.I.?

H.I.:
No, sir. That’s one bonehead name, but that ain’t me any more.

Parole Board chairman:
You’re not just telling us what we want to hear?

H.I.:
No, sir, no way.

Parole Board member:
‘Cause we just want to hear the truth.

H.I.:
Well, then I guess I am telling you what you want to hear.
Parole Board chairman:
Boy, didn’t we just tell you not to do that?

H.I.:
Yes, sir.

Parole Board chairman:
Okay, then.

Probably not stupid. They are ignorant.

Stupid is forever.

Ignorance has a small chance of being cured.
