[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up in Baltimore and lived in Philadelphia. Nothing really changes. People think it's only a question of the right progressive policies or reforming the police, but at the end of the day nothing really changes because no one has the political appetite to seriously address the real root of the problems. The do-gooders just keep coming up with excuses. But after 40+ years of listening to the same tired excuses I'm rather skeptical.

The crime and murder explosions weren't due to COVID insomuch as the failing progressive ideologies and demoralizing of the police that they no longer have the support or confidence to be proactive, so they have withdrawn. And when you think it was already bad enough prior to 2020, it's rather telling. But the progressives can't countenance that their ideas and solutions are only making things worse for the very people they claim to want to help. We're seeing a repeat of the 1970s all over again  :roll:

Yes there are failing progressive policies but there are also a lot of failing conservative policies that keep people down and contribute to the growing socioeconomic gaps and divides in society which breed resentment, alienation and criminal reactions in response.  Nobody is without blame.[/quote]
