So have you figured out how to show what policy caused this incident?
*Sigh* :roll: *Sigh* Although I probably will regret trying to engage you in rational discussion, let me see if I can get through...
It isn't one particular policy, or proclamation that one can point to, rather a culture of liberal/progressive agenda of looking to the wrong causes of this sort of thing based on political expediency.
An explanation as to why this type thing happens in wildly divergent geographic, socially and political areas?
None to this extent. It is one thing to say that large urban areas have problems, quite another to try and deflect the constant barrage of reports of a city that has been absolutely ruined by progressive corruption, and stupid policy.
"During the 1990s, crime rates in New York City dropped dramatically, even more than in the United States as a whole. Violent crime declined by more than 56 percent in the City, compared to about 28 percent in the nation as whole. Property crimes tumbled by about 65 percent, but fell only 26 percent nationally.
Many attribute New York's crime reduction to specific "get-tough" policies carried out by former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani's administration. The most prominent of his policy changes was the aggressive policing of lower-level crimes, a policy which has been dubbed the "broken windows" approach to law enforcement. In this view, small disorders lead to larger ones and perhaps even to crime. As Mr. Guiliani told the press in 1998, "Obviously murder and graffiti are two vastly different crimes. But they are part of the same continuum, and a climate that tolerates one is more likely to tolerate the other."
What Reduced Crime in New York City
What I like to call "coddle policy" like Midnight basketball, and moving kids through a broken education system where teachers are risking their very lives going to work because the thugs have taken over the schools, as opposed to taking real action like increasing the police presence, and effecting real arrests of identified gang bangers, and trouble instigators is what drives this very real sense that the lawless 'run the city'....
"Corman and Mocan identify several factors that could affect crime rates. For example, the police force in New York City grew by 35 percent in the 1990s, the numbers of prison inmates rose 24 percent, and there were demographic changes, including a decline in the number of youths."
What Reduced Crime in New York City
Simply throwing money at the school system does little but create a unionized liberal voting base that perpetuates the problem.
Anything of actual substance to go with the mindless insults?
Let's take a look at your very first post in this thread shall we?
Redress entry into this thread said:
...That is just painfully stupid....Do you ever think before posting this stupid ****?
Then you continued with the insulting personal attack just a couple of postings down....
More from Redress said:
...It is not my fault you have no clue how to actually look at evidence. It is not my fault you get outraged for all the wrong reasons. It is not my fault you posted such an idiotic thread.
Now you want to complain about "mindless insults"? Hell, that is all you brought to the table. Just cut the victim crap Red, we all know your style by now, it is a worn out tactic, and does little but show everyone that you really have no interest other than snarky one liners, and mockery to add to any thread...If I wanted to lend credence to that kind of mindless, mundane tactic, then ofcourse I'd sink to your level and probably get dinged....Which ofcourse is what you want anyway...Now, step off unless you want to change course and actually do something worth while, which would be to discuss and debate. The rest of it I have no time for.
