I guess you are trolling..
You can't blame a governor for crime rates anyway. Nor can you draw much correlation to things like policing. It's idiotic and a juvenile view of how and why crime happens. These things happen from so many societal factors and it isn't politicians causing or preventing it.
But it's been a republican culture war wedge issue for a few years lately. Seems like you fell for the con.
> You can't blame a governor for crime rates anyway.
dems made small value crimes not felony, it is strong incentive for crime rise, and strong motivation for police to not go after such cases.
Call me when the murder rate reaches the 1990s peak. They haven't. I'll say again, American cities are much safer than they've been in my living memory.
> dems made small value crimes not felony,
This is a horse shit explanation. Firstly, that was a ballot initiative passed by will of the voters, probably because California prisons, like most US prisons, have been overcrowded and we have insanely high incarceration rates exceeding pretty much every other nation, which is not appropriate. Secondly, I think people who have looked at this will tell you it had no impact on crime rates. Unless they work for Fox news etc.
that path is easily manipulated and compromised, because majority of voters don't have capacity to carefully review all propositions. And yes, population blindly supporting dems are also accountable for their actions.
Not interested to discuss your other statements, because I see them as low quality.
Are you seriously blaming the Democrats for the invention of misdemeanour crimes? Or for adjusting the threshold between misdemeanour and felony according to inflation?
Texas has misdemeanour theft to a far higher threshold than California… oops.
Stop watching Fox News.
