They are also black. Not important info tho lol
How dare you say that!! Even if it’s true it’s…why it’s racist!! I’m more like…Why bother? Since nobody does time anymore and there is no rehabilitation of criminals and the courts just slap their wrist and they laugh and go on to do more crime…#brokensystem
Skin color is only important when there’s reparations involved.
Not so sure about that and i think it is 2 females. I dont think they are african american at all. I put my money on 2 white females
Maybe all this crap that’s going on, the rampant lawlessness, the phenomenal crime rates, etc., are all part of a Plan by the Powers that Be. It’s like, cutting way back on enforcement, which only invites uncontrolled chaos, so that people eventually will be clamoring for police state measures to be put in place. You know, the old Hegelian dialectic of thesis–antithesis–synthesis, that sort of thing. It’s just speculation on my part; but our rulers have been known to do weird things before. Just sayin’ . . .
Made-up blather.
Crime rates are not phenmenal and law enforcement budgets are not getting cut.
Let’s try and keep the conversation grounded in reality.
get a clue. Crime is rampant, because there is no consequence. Police arrest only violent offenders and they are out in a few hours. Bail has been curtailed. The nations DAs have been put in place by a certain Billionaire, named G. S..
That’s just raw paranoia.
There is no basis for your paranoid fantasy.
No one is “putting DAs in place” .
Crime happens.
It’s not a conspiracy.
People are desperate, poor, or needing addictive drugs.
That’s why they rob.
It’s as old as mankind.
Perhaps the wealthy should pay their fair share in taxes and all of us poor people could reap the many benefits?
Indeed, the many benefits like decent roads, education, and healthcare along with living wages. History may not always repeat itself, but in the past when companies paid high marginal taxes on excessive profit, government had more discretionary spending, and the greed incentive wasnt as strong–because they cannot keep the money anyway the tax man was going to get it, so they paid better wages. They also spent more money investing in their companies and or begin new ones. All of that made more opportunities for workers and entrepreneurs.
You want to post a link to that conclusion? Because, even if true which seems nonsensical, it seems much more like coincidence than correlation. High taxes are possible because a boom makes money to be taxed. But, if the boom dries up but the taxes remain high, then people stop the effort to earn because the government would take all the fruits of their labor. The result is an accelerated bust. Politicians do not want to stave the cow. They want to feed the cow so they can eep milking it. Generally taxes are raised in a crisis and reduced as fast as possible after a crisis to encourage more innovation, investment and effort. Which it does and the cycle repeats.
The idea that greed is reduced because the government would take the excess anyway is what leads to the societal stultifying that happens in communist governments. People are never less greedy. They just direct their greed to theft or corruption since work leads to the government taking it anyway.
Yup. Poor, desperate addicted people rob from a tiny grocery store to take-what did the article say?- “cash and alcohol.” They could have worked at the lowest minimum wage job and done better for themselves. They chose to drive up and steal because it was easier. They threatened people because it was faster than a job. Jobs which there are plenty. If they were desperate, it is only because they chose a way of life that is always desperate.
Maybe they cannot get jobs because of facial gang tattoos or keep them because everybody is on their cases at work and they just want to get drunk and punch someone. Is that their fault?
Spot on…
You must have a very privileged existence to not see first hand that there is more crime and less enforcement than any time since the old west. The crime statistics are skewed because things that have always been criminal are no longer considered such by prosecutors who don’t enforce the law. If, in fact, law enforcement budgets are not being cut, the funds are certainly being diverted away from actual law enforcement activities. Try looking outside of your safe self affirming bubble and try to understand and have some empathy for what your neighbors are experiencing firsthand.
Lots of claims but nary a verifiable fact to support them.
If crime is higher now than at any other time, provide some evidence to support that assertion. Same for your claim of funds being cut from law enforcement activities. Provide some evidence.
You clearly misunderstood what I was trying to tell you. I did not say I had a budget sheet for every police and sheriff department in the nation, they maybe have as much or more money than ever. I’m saying a new sheriffs boat or hellcat armored vehicle is not law enforcement for everyday people. A raise for a desk cop or increase to their pension plan is not law enforcement. A police officer who won’t or can’t stop criminal behavior because the criminals won’t be prosecuted is not law enforcement.
I also do not have the current crime statistics for every town, city, or rural area in the country. But I do have eyes and ears and I’m telling you that I see more lawlessness and hear more stories and complaints from neighbors and friends across the country that their town is less safe and more lawless than anytime we can remember.
Maybe privileged was the wrong buzz word to describe your experience with crime. Maybe lucky, sheltered, or fortunate is better, but that doesn’t change the reality that others are experiencing. It could also be that you don’t want to accept that things are getting worse in our country with its current trajectory because it would go against your political narrative.
Yep, still no facts, but I’ve been told it’s important to speak our truths and my truth is that our civil society is in decay and there will have to be a reckoning.
I think any sane person who is sick of crime would move to Texas or Florida. They both keep crime, especially violent crime, down to a tolerable level.
I have a friend who picked up his family and moved to Texas, outside of the Dallas / ft worth area because he was able to transition there easily with his work and his wife is a stay at home mom. From our discussions he and his wife seemed to be left of center politically and last time we spoke he couldn’t say enough good things about how different things are in Texas. From the clean streets to the schools and many other things. Just one anecdote, not any facts, but it’s hard to get factual evidence of happiness or quality of life. My work and family situation makes a move like that a bit more difficult at this time but believe me, I am looking at options and would like to try an experiment in democracy outside of California when the time is right.
You think that mobs ransacking stores in broad daylight and, if a store employee tries to stop them, the employee gets fired doesn’t represent a serious deterioration in respect for the law?
I do. This happened to my son when he worked at 7/11. He was trying to stop a shoplifter and he got fired. Go figure.
that has been a theory for a few years. And a part of the Marxist plan for sure.
The left is on a race to the ethical and moral bottom. Vote republican across the board in 2024 or expect more political insanity.
I’m not a conspiracy guy. But I do believe that if we do not get hold of the situation then there will be a backlash in the other direction and it will be extreme. Authoritarian-style strong-arm tactics from despotic leaders who provide us some “security”..I don’t want that and so I am here commenting much about how we need SOME law and order and punishment/ rehabilitation that is effective. Execute the child molesters and the viciously violent to make room for the criminals that we are now releasing early because we don’t have room. That’s just a “for instance” solution…We need to make some serious decisions because we have just been relaxing our definition of crime to allow more criminals to get away with unacceptable behavior. As a result our neighborhoods are more dangerous and crime is only growing. Anybody who can’t see we have a serious problem getting worse is in denial…It’s an issue that reasonable people from either side of the aisle should be able to debate and address- at least! Not deny it or pretend it’s fine or kick the can or blow it off like they are presently doing…
DAMN! Somebody needs to eat a sandwich!!!
Right! Hungry as hell! Or money needed for more meth
One in backs a woman
I agree.
Oh, poo.
Looks like a VW Jetta.
Country needs way more guns.
