[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Reducing funding” as far as I understand it (and I sat through a 3 hour candidate forum yesterday afternoon where this came up) is more about trying to involve mental health professionals in the huge percentage of calls where that is what is needed vs police coming in to arrest people.[/quote]

Crime is escalating out of control.  We don't have enough mental health professionals in the world to contain the problem.  This is not a viable plan and EVERYONE knows that. [/quote]

No one said cut all police funding. It is more about trying to balance funding a little.

Rs love to talk about mental health yet put no dollars behind it[/quote]

You're right, no one said that, so why are you saying that?

We should not be reducing police funding for some quixotic attempt at using therapists to solve the issues in our communities. One, because we don't have enough of them, and two, because this is experimental and hasn't been done anywhere at the scale being attempted here.

We need to use proven policing strategies and get this back in order. We aren't safe anymore. [/quote]

We aren't safe because way too many people have guns.

Find a country on the planet that has as many gun deaths as we do. You can't.

Why? [b]Because NO OTHER COUNTRY LETS ANYONE GET GUNS.

Too many guns makes no one safe. Period. [/quote]

You are full of it because you don't take but one number into account.  Typical MSM spin on a false claim, how the hell do we end up 32nd then:

"The U.S. has the 32nd-highest rate of deaths from gun violence in the world"

Mexico, our southern boarder which is open to everyone doesn't allow citizens to own but a 22LR or less but yet has 4x the amount of gun deaths per capita.  How about we arrest people that lie on a 4473, looking at you Hunter.  Maybe you should tell your democratic DA's they should hold people that commit crimes, they even let people with a gun crime loose on the street:

"Woke St. Louis DA refuses to charge armed robbery suspect who tried to CARJACK marked police car and pointed gun at officers inside"

That will work out well.   :roll:

Chicago has had 88 mass shootings or more this year, only 19 weeks in.  They have some of the strictest gun laws but yet rack up stats like this.  That is more than 4 per week, but you don't see the media say a peep about it because it doesn't fit the narrative.

Until you hand out a punishment for the crime when bad people will do bad things this will continue.  Then you want to punish the 99% of gun owners that obey the laws and actually have saved quite a few people from violent crimes, many from criminals they let back out on the streets.  Keep telling yourself lies but when the truth comes and smacks you in the face, you only have yourself to blame for falling all over the MSM propaganda.
