Dems can be as tough on crime as they want, Republicans will keep saying that city streets are overrun with transgender Antifa migrants killing everybody and people will believe them no matter what. Very few voters will change their minds on this
Blud has not seen the San Francisco/LA drive-by videos. I don't understand why anyone thinks Gavin Newsom is an acceptable pick for a national Democrat candidate, Republicans will just run ads showing footage of shithole California neighborhoods and any nuance of whether it's his fault or city government or Soros DAs will fall on deaf ears
I'm beginning to think ol' Gav there knows California is a shithole and he wants to get the heck out of San Francisco before it goes full Mad Max, so he's looking for a national platform he can access to get him out of there and still have money and a comfortable lifestyle.
They have a plan. You just have to address housing, health care, pay inequality, racism, sexism, generational trauma, mental health, programs, education, capitalism and a few other issues and crime will go away. There's no reason to work on anything else when just fixing these small issues will fix it.
Progs will have like one good step for their pet projects but don't even think about how they are going to pay for the 100 other steps it'll take to make it work so they just never go anywhere or address anything.
Wow, you mean "let's make drugs legal, camping on the streets legal, shoplifting may as well be legal because we're not gonna prosecute that even if the cops make an arrest" does not result in criminals deciding to reform and become productive solid citizens? Crime go UP not down?
What a shocking result, who could possibly have forecast that, huh?

>This sub is just 2004-era Republicans who (probably?) don't hate gay people.
No, we're just 2004-era Democrats that remember much better days.
Figures that an out-of-touch political subreddit is also out-of-touch among their own members.
>I don't encounter them anymore since I moved to an upper middle class suburban part of the county with an active neighborhood watch that keeps people like that out. Literally had to move to a burbclave to escape the insanity.

Not only Newsom, but also the Mayor of SF has been desperately paddling rightward to save her political career

Because the liberal approach of "do nothing and let people commit crimes without consequences" is, shockingly, not working out?

Blue city in Red State has high crime, this is the fault of Rightoids somehow.
Wonder what the demographics of these high crime areas are too...

It's endlessly funny to watch them compare cities to states and hoping that nobody notices.

Weird that Iowa and Utah are Republican states in the bottom 10 for crime.
