You got a point... liberals are the kings of banning things.

Banning a plethora of things then showing leniency is kind of like bribing you with your own tax money.

Can there be even the slightest doubt that he meant criminals “of color”?

There's no doubt, racial justice, donchaknow...

Was gonna say something similar. Our electoral process elects too many criminals.

How the hell does this guy say so many dipwad things?? Sure, releasing criminals from jail makes our communities safer? No, those of us with functioning brains do NOT know that, Mr. 0bama. Only you Harvard geniuses seem to know that.

Common sense say too many blacks and latinos in jail, they have some serious problems in their cultural communities.

Libtard sees same thing and concludes the laws - many of the laws they actually demanded and modified over the years - must be racist.

"Almost 60 percent have mental health problems."

And are rightly locked-up to protect society.

That's WHY we lock people away to protect society. This is much more merciful than in ancient times, when they simply terminated the persistently dangerous.

Funny how the Left never mentions that crime has been falling the past two decades we’ve been sending criminals to jail for committing crimes.

When you spread around a philosophy that your people is only one big ball of innocent victims ready to exercise their wrath on their oppressors, you reap the results.

this is more of that disparate impact crap. that needs to be shut down in the courts and politics or we will keep getting more and more of this nonsense.

There is a disproportionate number of people in jail who do not follow the law. I guess we should let them out too.

A number of variables and truths have been left out of this analysis, but hey who really wants to do more than shoot from the hip?

It can’t help itself, awash in laws that make felons of just about everyone for anything

Yes. Also the trial systems from back then were much more efficient and sentences carried out without much delay.

I wouldnt say every trial, but certainly for clear cut cases where the evidence is overwhelming and/or the criminal admits guilt, go for top speed.

Build bigger prisons and a chop chop square and a hangin tree, that will stop criminals and thin the herd.

And with crimes created for little more reason than “we feel it’s wrong.”

At some point the purview of the state has to stop and the purview of the church has to begin. The state can’t ban a people into virtue.

In a properly working communist society the population, at least that part that is middle class or aspires to middle class lives in fear of the criminals.

The damage this sick b@$t@rd has done. Crime rates rising nationwide as he & his anarchist cronies have suppressed law enforcement agencies and emptied prisons. Sixteen percent jump in property crimes, 11% jump in violent crimes in my small community, 2015 vs. 2014. It’s gonna get much worse if that defender of Black Panther torturers and child rapists makes it back to the WH. Lord, hear our prayer: Forbid it, we beseech Thee.
