[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Los Angeles isn’t even in the top 75 most dangerous metro areas in the US. Violent crime rate is exceedingly low in LA. https://www.populationu.com/gen/most-dangerous-cities-in-the-us#google_vignette[/quote] A friend was almost carjacked leaving staples center after watching the LA Lakers. They smashed the driver side window as she was sitting in the driver seat, and reached in and stole her purse and stole her purse. When they tried to drag her out of the car she accelerated and got away. She called 911 and was told she would have to go back to the parking lot and wait for the police to take the report. Obviously, she wasn’t going to go back to the place where she we was just attacked. So there probably wasn’t a police report filed. [/quote] This is literally no different than what you’ll hear from unhelpful 911 operators in Dallas, Cleveland, Peoria, DC, or Boston. It’s a problem with policing in America; they literally are inured to plight. Not sure what this n=1 anecdote has to do with anything. The stats still bare out that Los Angeles is dramatically less dangerous than most other metro areas. [/quote] Low arrest rates = low crime rates [/quote] Nope, crime rates are not measured based on arrests. Try again. [/quote] Once again, when you legalize crime, then crime rates are going to be lower. They nearly brag about the crimes they will not longer arrest people for or prosecute. [twitter]https://twitter.com/jonathanhatami/status/1692528657125056941[/twitter] In 2018, under George Gascón, San Francisco had the highest property crime rate in the nation. At the end of Gascon’s reign in SF, property crime had increased by 37%. Look at SF now. On Dec 7, 2020, when Gascón became the DA of Los Angeles, there wasn’t one mention of “victims rights,” “public safety,” or how he was going to address burglaries, robberies, or theft crimes in LA. For the architect of Prop 47, it just wasn’t a concern-burglaries, thefts & many other felonies and all misdemeanors were listed under Gascon’s directives as $0 bail. Gascon even got rid of white collar crime enhancements that could be used for organized retail theft. Gascón was more concerned about releasing criminals, not charging crimes, abandoning victims & playing politcal games. 3 years later we have a public safety crisis in LA with these smash & grab burglaries and flash mob robberies taking center stage. Just so we are being honest about the “science & data,” in Nov 2021, under Gascón, we had the exact same problem here in LA where 14 suspects were arrested for 11 mob style smash & grab burglaries and ALL were released on $0 bail. The public was outraged. Gov Newsom created a task force & requested $300 million in state funds to combat the public safety crisis. Fast forward to the present & we are still dealing with the same exact problem. However, the real issue that no “leader” wanted to address in 2021 or at this new task force announced yesterday -George Gascón. It’s gotten so bad, Gascon wasn’t even invited to yesterday’s presser.
