January 25, 20179 yr Author And the approach you are advocating hasn't worked. And keep in mind my approach is eliminate drugs, fix the schools in the inner city, bring in jobs, restore the neighborhood. No one has tried my approach. Ever.
January 25, 20179 yr No one has truly tried my approach. Ever. Too bad someone from Chicago hasn't been president for 8 years.
January 25, 20179 yr Maybe we should try the same thing as NYC NYPD – The historic reduction of crime rates in New York What Reduced Crime in New York City
January 25, 20179 yr Author Too bad someone from Chicago hasn't been president for 8 years. At that statement proves my point on the inability to truly fix the problem the way it needs to be fixed. It is impossible to fix because the flow of illegal drugs into the country will never be stopped.
January 25, 20179 yr And keep in mind my approach is eliminate drugs, fix the schools in the inner city, bring in jobs, restore the neighborhood. No one has tried my approach. Ever. Maybe Rahm Emanuel can do that for you before Trump has to send in more grown ups. He did say get in in order or I will send in the feds, so that implies Rahm has options.
January 25, 20179 yr Author Maybe we should try the same thing as NYC NYPD – The historic reduction of crime rates in New York What Reduced Crime in New York City Looks like an improving economy and misdemeanor arrests helped there. As for Chicago the economy in the inner city is drugs and guns. Find other ways for those criminals to have a job and I'm sure it would have the same effect as New York.
January 25, 20179 yr Author Maybe Rahm Emanuel can do that for you before Trump has to send in more grown ups. He did say get in in order or I will send in the feds, so that implies Rahm has options. I wouldn't trust Rahm Emanuel's ability to fix this anymore than Trump's.
January 25, 20179 yr Pass on that. Not going to Chicago either. Tell Trump to send the Feds to Huntington after they clean sweep Chicago.Good idea. They can pick up all the white criminals there.
January 25, 20179 yr I can see quite a few gun battles going on before folks get rounded up. It's already a war zone chock full of criminals who don't care. I don't see them quietly giving up their enterprises and surrending. They already don't respect the law. Why would they now? And again, say the Feds roll in and everyone does go quietly. No gunfire. 10,000 criminals surrender. You do know that by the next month there will be 10,000 new criminals in place still making money off of illegal drugs? In this utopia after the drugs are harder to get and the schools are better and there is more legitimate bussiness where are the gangsters going to go? What are they going to do? Say I'm sorry, hold hands and sing songs together?

If you think a CURRENT gangster whos income is drug related and lucrative is going to reform and take a lower paying legitimate job that is more work then you can keep dreaming.
January 25, 20179 yr One thing that has happened in Chicago is that police officers now have a 2 or 3 page report they must fill out upon any contact with anyone. Example: guy robs a store and description comes out that he has a red shirt, blue shorts and long hair...police driving in the nearby neighborhood see a guy with a Bulls shirt, jean shorts and a mullet walking quickly. Officer stops him to see if he is the robber and it's just some guy on the way to work...officer has to fill out a 3 page contact report that has to reviewed by the ACLU before he continues his job. Even though anyone would say he was right to check this guy out, ACLU report has to filled out so that they can determine this contact was warranted. What has happened is that police officers are having less and less contact with those on the streets due to drowning in paperwork. The report was recently shortened to 2 and 1/2 pages...that'll help :lol2: We all know that community policing where the police officers are free to and encouraged to interact with citizens should be encouraged, but the Mayor's Office's deal with the ACLU has really pushed this away.

What are they going to do? Say I'm sorry, hold hands and sing songs together? Won't they be in jail after the Feds come in? One of the main reasons the cycle stays the same is because nothing changes. You can remove the drug dealers off the corner Friday morning in a raid. They'll be new drug dealers on the corner Friday afternoon. How about giving the kids something to live for by giving them a proper education? The schools in the inner city are some of the worst schools in the country with some of the worst teachers in the country? Why is that? Because no one in their right mind can stay positive in an environment like that. The main reason the inner cities stay the way they are is because of the constants in the inner city. Drugs, crime, horrible schools, horrible homes and no jobs anywhere because no smart person opens a business in a war zone other than liquor stores and pawn shops. Until these neighborhoods are fixed from top to bottom then nothing is going to change other than the gangsters running the neighborhood. I don't care how many Feds Trump sends in.

You don't want the feds in you can't start your defense with "after the feds come in" In your utopia the feds didn't come in.

And if you take away his drugs then what is he going to do? How are you missing this most essential part of my point?
