Deep inside President Joe Biden’s 11,700-word plan to revamp the nation’s infrastructure is one sentence that could transform the way America deals with gun violence....

...The Biden administration hasn’t offered many details. But researchers have identified several types of community-led programs ...

Focused deterrence...The people are called into a meeting and are offered help — jobs, housing, health care — and warned that if they reject the help and are involved in violence, they’ll be targeted for law enforcement crackdowns.

,,,Violence interrupters This method centers on outreach workers — people with street credibility, often people who have spent time in prison or who have past involvement in gun violence....

...Cognitive behavioral therapy ...One version, called Advance Peace, pays clients for reaching certain goals. ...

the solutions proposed are all pay to play. This doesn't draw on integrity and personal responsibility, but bribes. It's backwards blackmail. And it leads to what we have in every rioting city now - pay us and pay us good, or we'll burn it down.

I’m a nice little white boy. Do I get paid each month if I don’t commit any crimes of violence? Or lemme guess, do we only expect young blacks to be naturally violent?

In this current day of Newspeak, would you kindly define what is currently considered “anti-violence”?

This proposal is one that actually works well.

It was pioneered by David Kennedy.

It has little to do with "gun violence". It has everything to do with identifying the few bad apples that account for over 50% of murders in most cities.

It is a reward and punishment play, worked by a combination of the community and the police.

The community and the police know who the bad actors are.

They combine resources and call in the bad actors.

They tell them, you are headed for a bad place. You will likely be dead in a year or two, if you keep going the way you are going. We are giving you an out.

We know, it seems there is no way out for you. We are offering one.

If you do not take it, we will be on your case watching for any mistake, to arrest you and put you in prison, because it is not safe to have you on the street.

Multi million dollar houses built with your tax money that should cost about $200k on the open market. Gotta get those kickbacks flowing.

This sounds just like Communist China. Comrade, if you cooperate you will continue to get food, shelter, you can use public services, but if you don’t things will go badly for you.

Very true in most countries in the world. But in the USA, seems like the city is setting itself up for profiling, stalking and harassment civil rights lawsuits from those who thumb their noses and walk away. The smart ones will demand 6 figure annual payouts for a phantom position that requires no output. As happened in Portland, Chicago, etc. But those ‘creative’ positions don’t make change and remain a perpetual cost center.
