This is crazy. All the people arrested and released will be looting again tonight, and tomorrow, and the next day. We need more prisons. Honestly, that's the only solution at this point. This entire population of criminals should be swept up and locked away. They have no value-add to society. [/quote] Well in America, we have this concept called "innocent until proven guilty," which requires you to have something called a "trial" to determine what we call "guilt." Until then, they are not "criminals," as they have not been convicted of any crime. I'm not sure how you have gone this long not knowing these very basic concepts, perhaps you are new to our country? If so, maybe consider relocating to a country that better reflects your values, where indiscriminate and indefinite detention without a trial is normal. I'd suggest North Korea. [/quote] Yeah, this is stupid. They are all on video looting, stealing, vandalizing and committing crimes. All were arrested while trying to escape stores with goods in hand. The above sentiment is why a) crime continues and b) criminals are often repeat offenders. Lock them up. Throw away the key. We do not need these people on the streets, as they are a danger to our communities. [/quote] No actually the foundation of law is not stupid in any way. Just because you don/t comprehend the how and why does not mean that we should summarily imprison people wtf. That is authoritarianism.[/quote] This is where the left sounds insane. No, it is not authoritarianism to jail known criminals apprehended in the act of committing a crime. These are not innocent, do-gooders. These are bad actors who on the whole have achieved billions of dollars in damages to retails institutions, many of which are now shutting permanently in certain neighborhoods. It is completely insane to me that the left are screaming that we cannot imprison criminals any more. Our cities are going to dog poo. Crime is up by over 40-50% in many places. This is not just petty left but VIOLENT crimes, including assaults, rapes, and murders, and your response is "WAAAH, we cannot jail thugs apprehended mid-crime because it is too authoritarian". Dems have lost the plot. Sit this one out, and let the rest of us try to regain a safer country.[/quote] I’m liberal, pro-choice, pro-weed, I send my kids to dc public schools in SE, I fund npr and all that sht, but on this, on crime, you fks have lost the plot. Get your criminal sympathizing headz out of your you know where or I am voting for Nikki Hailey, even though she sucks, just to prove a point. Also, if we ever got the chance to, I would vote for a criminal control board to take over in DC, similar to the financial control board enacted in the 80’s when Mayor Barry ran this city into the ground. I’m getting really tired of so many naive, idealistic people going all bleeding heart and throwing up their hands and saying “oh! We need more money for programs not more police or arrests or actual consequences!!! It’s so unfair!!!” Seriously, you are making this city unsafe with your willfully obtuse behavior. [/quote] I only say Nikki Haley because there is literally no one at the local level who can win who is remotely centrist. We have Charles Allen, who loves criminals and we have the other progressive idiots on the council who can’t somehow see that their progressive criminal justice policies exacerbate crime. Somehow we have twisted the world upside down where we are supposed to feel for the perpetrators of crime over the victims.[/quote]
