Would die for something worthwhile then.If you do that, you end up dead. Why would you want that?

LOL thinking stopping and searching someone just because he's a scary negro is justified
Why would he end up dead? A guillotine implies social revolution, and which point if he is the one pulling the lever he is very unlikely to end up in the guillotine.If you do that, you end up dead. Why would you want that?
Once again, your just trying to make us angry. Create division where there is none. Empower the state where it is unnecessary.Middle class white America see street crime as a bigger issue than financial...even white liberal NYC (Mike Bloomberg)

I thought that was because petty crime isn't prosecuted anymore? Car break in's, shop lifting, things along those lines. Why would the average person even report a crime if they know nothing will be done about it?What’s funny is crime in NYC is lower now than it was in most of the stop and frisk era.
Does that make you reconsider?
Nope, the idea that crime is only lower because it goes unreported is a common lie in right wing media to (bafflingly) avoid admitting crime rates are better.I thought that was because petty crime isn't prosecuted anymore?

Back when I had my annual truck robbery the only reason I reported it was for the insurance company. The police wouldn't respond, they just had a website where I filled out a form, a cop would sign it and send it back to me.
It's a little surprising to me that we've so easily accepted theft as a normal part of life, and that thieves shouldn't be punished. I don't think that system going to net an improvement in the average persons life.
Those candies aren't going to crush themselves.I would agree that police not doing their jobs is a problem but that is not one conservatives want to address by doing the obvious, busting the police unions.
Hey I like Gizmo.
Bet the OP loved Henry Kissenger too. He just wants to be in a society where power is unencumbered by things like morality, the rule of law, and accountability to the people.
No it doesn't. It may be lower, but is still too high everywhere. Not just in NYC. (San Francisco, LA, Chicago, Detroit, Atlanta, Miami ...)

Yes, I checked that after I made the post on this one. Lo and behold, he does.Umm....have you seen the Kissenger thread?![]()

Even if you thought that is true though crime is also down in areas that aren’t subject to non-reporting like murder.
Great news, right?
But not in Russia, it is a weird concept.Stop & Frisk is a huge violation of the 4th Amendment IMO. Again, it's not the 2nd....so half of america doesn't even care.
If it's accurate it is indeed good news. I'll have to look into it.Nope, the idea that crime is only lower because it goes unreported is a common lie in right wing media to (bafflingly) avoid admitting crime rates are better.

Decades ago I saw a “Cops” episode (the fox channel police show), Cops in *Whatever Russian City*. The Cops were all pretty much what we are used to, they had the same daily challenges as US police. Thing that was really strange was a patrol questions a woman on the street and they take her to the station because:
She dressed like a prostitute
She looked like a prostitute
She had a purse with foreign money which Prosititutes tend to have
She had no reason to be standing where she was standing.
Sort of eye opening to me at the time. Look like a criminal you are a criminal.

Crime data and economic data are related in that regard but I think it's more a thing that they are lies when they say crime is going down under a Democrat. They are perfectly happy to believe good crime/economic stats if a Republican is in charge.Crime rates are only true when going up and lies when going down is the conservative mantra.
