What could’ve gone wrong?
In other words, they did the opposite of Giuliani's Broken Windows effort in NY and got the opposite results. UNEXPECTED®
Nothing wrong with that imho
It’s called game theory. The perpetrators instantly adapt to the new rules to reap the advantages and avoid the penalties.
Liberals always assume that what they see will remain invariant and their change will affect what they see in the way they reason it will. They are always wrong because the picture they are seeing is dynamic, not static.
There are two rational ways for a society to deal with drugs recognized as illicit, totally legalize them or make all purveyors subject to the death penalty (no more than 60 days for appeals) and all users subject to harsh fines and imprisonment. Anything in between promotes crime and the police state.
Dumb bastards.
When a thief steals from you, he steals your property and your freedom.
You had to work to get that money or TV or car. The thief didn’t.
He forced you to work for his benefit. That is slavery. That is stealing your freedom.
Thieves are tyrants and deserve to be treated as such.
“Reduce the state prison population to 137.5% of design capacity—which is one inmate per cell”.
Isn’t 137.5 % 37.5% more than 100%. Somehow my pea brain can’t figure out the math. And I made it out of eight grade.
Someone please explain the new math to me. Or is this just progressive malarkey.
If they catch some guy with a small about of personal use pot ONCE, that is one thing and shouldn’t ruin their life for it. It is repeat offender violent criminals and meth, crack, addicts etc. who have no job and steal from others to pay for their habit who needs to be behind bars.
Apparently the feelings of the voters overruled the reality. They get what they voted for.
It makes sense, from one who has lived there, before but no more.
1. Make all the guns that are currently produced ‘outlawed’.
2. Make it almost impossible, for the homeowner to own a firearm, whether by municipal or homeowners’ association ‘bylaws’.
3.Lessen the laws that punish the creep breaking in your back door.
4. Prosecute the homeowner for exercising their right to self-preservation, because the creep is busy exercising his government given right, to your stuff.
Try deporting the illegals and end the sanctuary cities.
Well, there ya go. We done stuck the butter knife into the electrical outlet and now we know first-hand why we were told not to do it.
The question is will we keep doing it?
It the Liberals who in the 70’s wanted us to unilaterally disarm, get rid of all our nuke deterrent. They actually believed if we did so the Russians would see we were serious about peace and would themselves dis arm.
This thinking is much the same as that of todays Liberals and their blind faith in the truly awful negotiated agreement with Iran.
Dumbing down the crimes because of their ethnicity is brilliant (sarc)
“They actually believed if we did so the Russians would see we were serious about peace and would themselves dis arm.”
I think this idea was actively promulgated to the useful idiots by the Russians. Notice they don’t allow the same kind of idiots access to the public in their own country. Because, every society has people who dream without reason. Note the (now dead) reporters who thought that they could criticize Putin. Being a useful idiot carries a heavy price. It’s better when the individual pays his own price, but the useful idiots in government make us all pay the price while, they, mostly, escape with golden parachutes to safe, lucrative press or university jobs.
Stupidity reigns supreme in California.
Hello third world.
Yes. The math is correct. A 100 bed prison would have 137 prisoners.
