I’m sorry the former Republican president of the US is a huge criminal with 141 House members sitting in congress

Let’s talk about criminal Paxton in Texas or Rick Scott who is a major criminal and both taxpayers pay their legal bills and their penalties

Shut up [/quote]

Yes, but none of them to my knowledge has been carjacking drivers.

Right? How about we focus on actual tangible things like violent crime reduction. It sucks some fundies in Texas are politicians who funnel money, but as a dc resident I’m a little more worried that Charles Allen and the progressive wackos want to lower penalties for car jacking and let violent criminals out of jail earlier. I get it. I get it. You’ll say that increasing penalties doesn’t reduce crime. And then I’ll say “yes it does” and the we go round and round and crime keeps going up. Then when dc returns to 1990 crime levels the pendulum will swing the other way and oversteer toward a harsher crackdown and blah blah blah the cycle of life continues, and you will have learned nothing, forgotten about this discussion and it will be 10 years away from now.

Long story short is that we’re in this period where “unconscious bias on arrest” is, according to progressive criminal justice reformers, more to blame for lopsided stats and not actual accountability for one’s own behavior. Let’s see how it all pans out in the next presidential election. Repubs will hammer home crime. They’re already doing it by forcing a vote on the dc bill. Sadly, I am actually with them on this.  One can be liberal but still aghast at a laissez fair attitude toward crime. I’ve lived in this town my whole life, why y’all wanna fk it up more by letting criminals out earlier, forcing tons of jury trials that will overwhelm the courts and simply lead to no prosecution and lowering car jacking penalties? I get it: you’re super hip to woke criminal Justice, but it makes actual non violent citizens less safe.[/quote]
