[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What we need to do in the face of violent crime is obviously to keep throwing money at programs , wringing our hands about actually arresting or prosecuting violent criminal perpetrators, but to continue focusing on learning “the root causes of crime”, which somehow we haven’t been able to do over the last 2,000 years or so. Since we’re in a time of defunding the police, and unwillingness to arrest because it breaks up families and all the rest, I’m sure we’ll come up with a strong deterrent soon and all will right itself.[/quote] We have never thrown money at the root of the problem, so stop that bs now. Kids with learning disabilities who are not supported at school make a significant percentage of the people going to prison. The federal govt and the states have never funded special education as was promised when IDEA was created. The solution isn't more $ for policing. [/quote]
