A lot of people are saying maybe we'd like a dictator

Whether the crime rate goes back up depends greatly on the judicial system.

The majority of the crimes are committed by repeat offenders. Eliminate no cash bail and don't go light on sentencing, and the crime rate hopefully will stay low.

This may also make others think twice about committing a crime when they see that they will not just get a "slap on the wrist". Originally Posted by Iceman

Sadly there's probably 5% or so that are bleeding hearts, and don't want to see a specific demographic of overpopulation in the penitentiary systems.

Me- I always say "don't do the crime if you can't do the time."

Also, pretty sure it's not a state.

Anyone arguing that violent crime is only a problem in "blue cities" can't be taken seriously. Another conversational waste of time in here, I see. Originally Posted by tommy156

Comparing it to east liberty or somewhere like that is a bit crazy, there is no comparison. One place is safe and beautiful, the other a dirty shithole.

Hell, per capita, I bet it's pretty close. Foolish to suggest violent crime only happens in cities.

Trump actually said.

“I have the right to do anything I wanna do. I’m the President of the United States.”

Sounds like something a dictator would say to me.
