[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's a curious double standard on the left when it comes to traffic violations vs. violent crime. We throw the book at drivers. The city issues *millions* of tickets each year, many for minor violations. The attitude is that if you don't like it, then don't break the law. But with violent crime, people on the left are always looking for excuses not to punish the people involved. There's always some tortured reason why we can't enforce the law when it comes to violent crimes. [/quote] Not true. There’s a pretty substantial push not to enforce traffic laws of any kind for equity reasons.[/quote] Sorry but being poor doesn't give you an excuse to speed, run red lights, or drive like a maniac, or to habitually break traffic laws. I can see giving a poor person a break or a discount on their first couple of tickets but not if they do it habitually.[/quote]
