[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thing though about police reform and progressive and “woke” policies is that (and I have no evidence of this and it’s completely my speculation) I think crime increasing is less directly in response to it, knowing the education level of most average criminals, are they really watching or reading the news? I hardly think that a gang or any random 20 year old, unemployed or underemployed poorly educated male is sitting here reading the Washington Post thinking, oh, Elrich and Jawando and Mink are elected? They’re defunding the police? Oh yeah nows my chance to go steal a car and stab somebody! [/quote]

I think criminals absolutely learn that other criminals committed crimes and didn't face any real consequences when caught. And I also think they are smart enough to figure out where they're more likely to be successful. For example, why are there suddenly so many carjackings by teens in MD and DC -- it's because they understand that many such crimes have been committed and the criminals just end up back on the street (if they are caught at all).[/quote]
