We agree there is a “market for crime”.
Markets WORK.
Why the need to subsidize it, then?
Liberalism is a disease that the initial symptom is close-mindedness. It’s amazing, but leaving an unlocked door or keys in the ignition is “demand” and the guy who comes into your house or steals your car is the supply! I live in Colorado where we have make my day law, you come into my house I shoot you with 10-guage dbl barrel. :)
I have to agree with the liberals at The Oregonian that creating crimes to secure convictions is a disgusting tactic. I don’t know of any solution other than disbanding the ATF. Along with several other federal agencies.
