@j_somer1 You're sidestepping the fact that Atlanta/Dekalb politicians seem committed to allowing criminals to run wild in their jurisdictions. I do agree with you though. State level politicians should be much harsher than they have been. Of course that would be criticized as draconian.
@j_somer1@HamptonPrezcott No amount of "funding" will address the issue(s) when there is no will to do so. Especially because there is concerted effort to reduce the effectiveness of law enforcement by local politicians in the name of "restorative justice".
@rjohnston4 You're being obtuse. Like I said all of these people have lengthy rap sheets. They shouldn't even be on the street to begin with. You're glazing over that. My entire point is to take criminals out of society which is something leftists/liberals refuse to do.
@rjohnston4 The assumption here is that the criminal intending to murder someone cares what you've banned. Murder is banned too. The core issue is the criminal justice system ITP is completely broken, subverted by liberals/leftists. Until you start enforcing the law again nothing will change
@rjohnston4@jimperry@CodyAlcorn@SecDuffy Common sense will tell you most of the people stabbing someone out of the blue are probably doing something else that should draw the eye of LE. Whether that is disorderly conduct, fare evasion etc. But again they likely shouldn't even be on the street to begin with due to priors
@rjohnston4@jimperry@CodyAlcorn@SecDuffy The vast majority of the people committing these crimes have a long rap sheet & are doing something illegal. If the police were aggressively pursuing criminality & the DAs were aggressively prosecuting them, you wouldn't have these issues. Lock criminals up & keep them there.
@rjohnston4@jimperry@CodyAlcorn@SecDuffy The problem is not the weapons. It's the people with the weapons as well as the unwillingness to put them in jail & keep them there.
@Fall_8787@McClellanforGA The pay is the least of the problems. The political leadership has run off good, effective, cops with their policies. No one in the their right mind would want to be a cop ITP unless they just want to nap & collect a pension.
@INFPaully Sure, they would love the overtime to nap but that's exactly the problem. Atlanta police & Dekalb police have a hands off policy when it comes to crime. They are unwilling to solve the problem.
@McClellanforGA Kemp is weak & panders to black people so that's never going to happen. If he was going to do it, the time would have been in 2020 when they were burning the city down. He has shown he is unwilling to do what needs to be done to fix Atlanta. One of the worst GOP governors tbh.
@DocDunzo@CigSmokingMill It's not gossip. His wife being a Jew while he was a self-proclaimed Nazi is 100% verified. He markets himself as a serious political commenter not a comedian.
@DocDunzo@CigSmokingMill Seriously? Mike lied by omission about being married to a Jew for one & probably employed a government intelligence asset as his "head of security". Not to mention the NJP debacle. They are bad news.
@DissidentPress The majority of what amounts to the "online RW" are basically ppl playing a character they created, like a video game creation scene. Select your "based" attributes to present to the world whether for attention or $$. Feels like we've been stuck in this cycle for 10 yrs now.
