Seems like most of it is repeat offenders who get let go again & again.

Crime is a big issue, but it needs to be stopped at the source and not a the base with the petty drug dealers that stand on the corner. The biggest problem is the fact that children in this country are getting fatter and dumber every day, and there has been nothing done to reform education.

White Collar crime is now institutionalized at all levels of Government.
Police, Judges, Attorneys, Criminal Justice System, Speed Traps. Neighborhood Preservation. Public Works.
Their the NEW Mobsters!

Yes, starting at the top. Malfeasance in elected office, the legal profession, law enforcement, and by corporate officers should be much more rigorously punished than other crimes. One meth user does much less damage to society than a corrupt-lying-weasel politician. First offense for possession of meth/coke/whatever - 1 month in jail. First offense for a politician taking a bribe - 5 years in the same prison and loss of any retirement benefits.

No. I think racism is the most important issue to be resolved. Only then will ALL Americans be equal!

Well, some think the criminals in power are the big problem. The ones elected or appointed as well as the mafia types.
