I hear you, I just get ticked off about this crap. I still have raw memories of our last round of ‘Criminal Justice Reform’ in the 1960s and 1970s, when we blamed prisons and society for making people violent, so we sprung the felons and had the largest crime wave in this country’s history.

So far I’ve seen NOTHING to imply that this experiment with ‘Criminal Justice Reform’ will end any differently - if anything, today’s criminals have been taught by the Democrats to be even more violent and hate-filled. We will, again, have thousands (or millions) more crime victims than we would otherwise have if these ‘reforms’ don’t quickly stop.

Just look at what happened to the murder rate in New York City between 1993 (when they gave up on the the earlier round of ‘Criminal Justice Reform’ and started locking people up again) and now - the murder rate dropped by 90%, from about 2000 to 200. There are literally tens of thousands of innocent people in New York who would be dead if they hadn’t ended their experiment with ‘Criminal Justice Reform’, but instead they get to live out their lives, as all of us should get to.
