[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nothing has “shifted.” It’s just a couple sensational stories. [/quote]

Quick! Let’s pass more lenient criminal justice policies, so that teens know can act without consequence! Charles Allen are you reading this? This is right up your alley. Our city needs to be more tolerant of crime!!!![/quote]

Obviously, our city will never do it, but ugh I wish we could elect more centrist politicians. We elect this Portland-esque social justice crusaders who forsake tax paying productive citizens for dangerous, out of control scofflaws. Like what would a normal city do if the crime rate went up 40% during a pandemic? I’m sure they wouldn’t continue to lower the penalties for crime commission out of a misguided altruistic notion of righting past wrongs. No they would probably hire more police and encourage policing. No, not dc. We get stuff like the youth rehabilitation act and loosening the time for criminals convicted of crimes to be out of prison earlier. Also, teens know they can do whatever they want without any type of consequence.

Obviously, politicians want to get re-elected and pander to the super poor half of the city who is primarily guilty of these crimes, and so instead of increasing arrests and making the other half feel safe, they just keep lowering the bar. At what point do we see a serious response? When the cities tax base is hollowed out?[/quote]
