We should discuss the intentional deployment of criminals by the “Progressives” to control the general public.

The data shows that criminals do not follow the law. So the left applies their typical solution, make it more difficult and expensive for the law abiding people to get firearms.

Which is why they are released so quickly, the democrats need to keep the numbers up to justify gun control.

The article portrayed the findings as “startling statistical analysis”.

Only to demonically deceived leftists.

Specific politicians, judges, and “activists” who supported letting criminals loose to re-offend share responsibility for the murders, assaults, rapes, robberies, destruction, and theft committed by the criminals they put or left on the streets to victimize the public.

Identify them. Shame them and blame them publicly. Throw them out of any positions of responsiblity or “leadership” permanently. These scum have harmed society and their constituents irrevocably.

Start with one Kamala Harris.

Most VICTIMS have criminal records. Usually around 80% of all homicide VICTIMS have criminal records. IIRC, something like 50% have records that include assault.

Thus killing thugs, and sometimes missing and hitting someone innocent. Life in the big city.

You mean to tell me that mayors of various cities didn’t realize that criminals are going to commit crimes?!?

The sad part isn’t that these numbers are proven out, over and over again. No, the SAD PART is that it took someone showing these idiots the facts which have been staring them in the face since before they decided to run for mayor!!

It’s like they just couldn’t understand the whole picture until RIGHT NOW - AND BAM - all of a sudden, it clicks: violent criminals return to violent crime when not incarcerated or put down!!

The facts invalidate much of the entire theory of leftism today.

A major part of the theory is "no one is responsible for anything". So, criminals who end up in jail, are just proto revolutionaries who understand the system is corrupt, and are as much victims as the people they hurt.

Finding the criminals to be the problem goes directly against the whole leftist edifice of victimhood as virtue.

Humans never like to have their assumptions about reality challenged.

No S. Sherlock, anyone who reads crime reports knows the stats are HiearchicalCounted, only 30% who are released early re-offend within 2-3 years, And even still on probation or parole. Millions of more crimes are added with the scale going up as to type. They commit more crimes while out on bail. Recidivism for the Memphis Penal Farm is 90% with 90 days serve time, in an 11-month 29-day sentence.

Goodbye Lightfoot, you should have read those reports your state generated or the Feds. Even Richard Daily kept crime fairly low by today’s standards.

At least, crime which Mayor Richard Daily was not associated with, or simply approved of.

Crime outside his circles, somebody was "poaching" or upsetting the applecart...

True. Guliani had a good plan, But it didn’t go far enough, I believe in Public hangings. Sends a good message.

They must be the same group of idiots that were part of Bloomberg’s Mayors Against Illegal Guns. I mean, who wouldn’t be against illegal guns, right? Problem is, they want to ban pretty much all guns.
