[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Right. And the root cause of gangs and drugs is concentrated poverty and trauma, just like PP said. [/quote]No. Plenty of people, the huge majority, of any background or "race" who grow up in poverty and with trauma, do not in fact end up [b]ever[/b] committing criminal violence. It is well established that a tiny proportion of the population who commit violent crime and do so over and over. When large portions of them are in prison, violent crime rates in a jurisdiction fall dramatically. When large portion is out of prison the violent crime rates rise.[/quote]
