Our poor Communities Are Eating Themselves

[JohnEngelman]

Bananas with chastity belts? Mellons pierced with chains? What else?

 

[JohnEngelman]

Oh, I have solutions. You wouldn't like them.

80% of crimes are committed by people with 3+ offences. My solution? Just take everyone who hits three offences and execute them on the spot. Don't try and reform them. Three strikes and you're removed from society. Permanently. You can make it four or five, just to be sure. At that point it's the same people anyhow. They're npt reformable. They will keep committing crimes. They are a blight on society, and like a blight, they need to be eradicated. Which they generally are, but less formally and more in an ad-hoc manner.

There's others but you wouldn't like them either.

ChloeTzang, I like your solutions a lot.

No. Locked cabinets, or you have to order them from a staff member. That pushes up the costs but it can be cheaper where theft rates are high. The customer always pays tho

That's what theyre actually doing - putting everything in locked cabinets. A low trust society

Ah! Like fancy jewelry, cigarettes, and cosmetics behind glass cases. Now you have to ask for an attendant to retrieve a peach so you can test its firmness and smell its ripeness before you pay for it. That definitely will drive up the prices and create longer lines.

I tried a few home deliveries a few times at first when I couldn't get out. Not very good picks of fruits, etc, and delivery wasn't that good either. So I gave that up. [Now the new housekeeper goes to do the shopping. She's got a good eye for produce and cooking too.]

When we get the Ukrainian drone fleets up and running in the USA, those should take care of the delivery issues and cut down on theft. Hopefully. Mess with the delivery and get 'droned' for it as a warning to others.

Long prison sentences at hard labor. The Soviet Union proved under Joseph Stalin that a prison sentence can be run at a profit to the government. Society owes nothing to criminals. We would be better off if they had never been born

Can’t argue with that, but gotta ask: isn’t it a paradox to praise Stalin’s prison model as both profitable and effective, while at the same time wishing those prisoners had never been born? If they never existed, there’d be no labor to profit from — which seems to undercut the very example you’re using.

That is an interesting thought.

Most of the people in Stalin's prisons were political prisoners who did not deserve to be there. Nevertheless, Stalin's methods are an excellent way to reduce America's high crime rate and the high cost of incarceration.

That, sadly, is an issue. I tried the home delivery thing to and the quality of the fresh fruits and veges sucked. On the other hand, if you're in a food desert, you takes what you can get....

On the other hand, EBT card people gnerally don't seem to be big on fresh fruit and veges anyhow.

 

[Rebel5soul]

I understand that, but my question to you was to ask if you had a solution to crime. My point you consider the cost that is paid by us taxpayers. It is imbecilic to think harsher treatment and penalties was a realistic answer to the crime problem. You have to consider the cost or leave it up to government correction officials. Either way, you're going to pay the tax.

You keep harping on the 'cost of punishment', fine but we look at the results in certain jurisdictions and we most certainly see the 'cost of no punishment.' "Broken Window" police policy has worked every time it's been implemented.

 

[coati]

You can't answer my argument, so you insult me.

When I was a child, a teenager, and a young adult I made excuses for black social pathology. When I got older, I got tired of making excuses. Now I am tired of hearing them. I admire people and races who are intelligent, who obey the law, and who do not have illegitimate children. People like that can be found in all races, but they are more frequently found in some races than in others.

Two generations since the civil rights legislation was passed and since the War on Poverty was declared I think we have the right to expect better behavior and performance from most blacks.

You seek retribution and impose repression based on race or ethnicity, similar to Trump and Netanyahu. Thus, you create far more problems than you solve.

 

[Bn2f]

I prefer Orientals to people of my own race. I also admire Jews.

A man with impeccably good taste. Congratulations.

Surprised the fucker hasn’t already refrenced the shape of your eyes. SLANTS!
...I gotta remember to slant my flower pots to drain the rain water.

JFC! What the actual fuck, Chloe, your need to attach your lips to white cock has reached desperation.

Oh great, the Mao approach.

And did Mao end up with the final solution and the master race? How about Stalin? How about Hitler?

 

[DraggonStone]

OK, big guy, what is your solution to crime. Social reform and social welfare spending never reduced the crime rate. We should have learned that during the 1960s.

I never claimed to have a solution to a very complex problem. I asked you for you're solution since you were posting as if you had all the answers.

What is your solution to retail theft?

Swift punishment under the law. Retail theft isn’t just a crime against a store, it’s a crack in the foundation of society. When people learn they can steal without consequence, discipline breaks down, laws lose their weight, and the idea of shared responsibility vanishes. Enforcing the law isn’t about being harsh, it’s about teaching that rules matter, that order protects everyone, and that without accountability, communities pay the price in shuttered businesses, higher costs, and eroded trust. Let’s be clear, when retail theft is brushed off or excused, it doesn’t just empty shelves, it rots the very fabric of society. The real danger comes when ignorance of the law turns into a family heirloom, with parents teaching kids that stealing is a “right.” That isn’t poverty, it’s cultural decay. A community that treats crime as entitlement isn’t oppressed, it’s self-destructing. The only antidote is discipline: enforce the law with real consequences, break the cycle of generational lawlessness, and stop pretending that theft is anything but theft.

And so you need resources that can handle arrests of this nature while not ignoring more serious crimes that involve citizens being harmed or killed. The sheer number of retail outlets make this a daunting task and one that requires quite a bit more funding.

Why dont you just come out and say you want free money?

Funding isn’t the real issue. The problem is local Democrat leadership that handcuffs law enforcement, excuses criminal behavior based on race, and treats shoplifting as a social grievance instead of a crime. You could pour billions into policing, but if the DA won’t prosecute and city hall is more worried about ‘equity’ than accountability, the result is the same, lawlessness. What’s needed isn’t just resources, it’s political will to enforce the law without excuses.

Reichy is the one who appears to want free money

And criminals need to be persecuted...except the black ones.

Of course it is

What’s needed isn’t just resources, it’s political will to enforce the law without excuses.

If you arrest more people, you need more resources up and down the chain. You need more officers to do the patrolling. You need more space for jailing additional criminals. You need more prosecutors to prosecuted the cases. You even need more judges to handle the additional load.

Law enforcement has always tilted towards violent and extreme criminal acts to properly assign resources to the most heinous crimes. If you want to add theft to priorities, then you need to dedicate resourcing to that.

 

[ll74]

That's racist.

Simple minded idiots just want things to happen without understanding what that means

^^^^^^^^^^very well stated....

I am opposed to racial discrimination. That is why I am opposed to affirmative action.

 

[ll74]

Thats you.

If you want more police to patrol stores and more arrests and more prosecutions, regardless of where, regardless of who - you need more resources to accomplish it.

Sending in the fed doesn't cut it.
