@@iveylynmay 100% false and merely a talking point for professional victims who live in a leftist echo chamber. The real issue is that WOMEN overwhelming support a political party that is SOFT on crime and literally let's violent criminals flow over the border unchecked while allowing them back out on the streets even after multiple arrests and victims. Do some research on the Kim Glass attack and ask yourself why such a violent, repeat offender was out on parole. Kim is a beautiful and talent black woman who also happens to be a US Olympian, yet the mainstream media glossed over her horrific attack. The reason why her attacker was walking feee is simply that the majority of women literally vote against their own interest, much like blacks do, all because they've been bombarded with far left propaganda their entire lives. Their opinions are not based in fact, but rather what the talking heads read off their teleprompters.

Whether someone has committed a crime or not is a poor excuse for actual evidence they committed the specific crime I’m question…. Fortunately people much smarter than you designed our justice system. It’s much better to have some criminals go free than to have tons of innocent people convicted of crimes they didn’t commit. And I’m a former cop, I get what ur saying, but there are lots of cases where someone is identified as a suspect based on their past convictions and they turn out to be innocent, which is why details of former crimes aren’t allowed. They can be used for sentencing tho which is the important part.
@aarongoldman301 6 ай бұрын
@@WideAwakeHuman You are absolutely right. Decision whether a suspect is guilty or not should be made based on hard evidence only, not biased by suspect's previous deeds, their racial, social or any other background. Otherwise we might be looking for a scapegoat good enough to be put behind bars while the real perpetrator roams free and commits more crimes. No legal system is perfect and even hardest punishment won't reverse the evil done, but emotions aren't the good advisor during trial. I find some of these real crime shows (48 hours being the best example of that) trying to induce too much emotions while being less focused on actual detectives' work and forensic procedures.

Same homeless man 6 months later threw a rock a broke the lighted sign in front of the police station. He received 6 years in prison for that.

It is a big boom but is quietly introduce in society to prevent people becoming too alarm. There are current studies that show some people present with stronger violent markers in their genetic makeup that would lead to develop violent tendencies; however will people not procreate if they know their offspring can be a threat to society? Let's say two people when their genetic material mix their offspring has a high probability of psychopathic tendencies; how will society control and manage such threat? Currently people with schizophrenia and bipolar have a 50% chance of having an offspring with that same disease however they still reproduce knowing the risk and burden on their offspring. The field of genetics comes coupled with ethics and this will give rise to societies coming together based on their goals and views of what type of communities they want to build.

If the court system handled all the non-violent drug & alcohol related crimes more appropriately there would be plenty of room to incarcerate predators (who are routinely given plenty of second-chances) and repeat offenders. The Federal government has taskforces wasting billions of dollars filling prisons with drug criminals (the guy who may have sold 'a bag of weed' to kids like the skateboarders in this segment)...

it's the wrong question. ask why do some people raise monsters and how do we stop idiots from crippling their offspring mentally? prison time doesn't help the victims, we have to stop raising monsters in the first place.

"Thank god for science" hehehe - I know what you mean but that made me laugh. Belief in God has been the enemy of science for 1000 years. Most recently Bush banned stem cell research under pressure from the religious right. In Europe, it was illegal to try and understand how the body worked for centuries. Sickness was punishment from god. So thank science for science and if we started taxing religions and using the money for science we'd cure cancer in a decade.

I vividly remember the chill knowing how close evil was. I'm so grateful to all of those who never gave up on Sarah's case. I'm so grateful for the new technology that found and was able to punish such a Monster. Sarah left a legacy of an incredibly wonderful and strong family and friends that will never forget her or let her memory and life be forgotten. May God Bless You all and continue to help you heal and find peace 🕊️🕊️ Rest in Peace Sarah, you will forever be loved. Legislation must change all across America to not only allow and support the amazing technology of Familial Genealogy BUT allow in every case a Monster's previous criminal history to be presented in Court. It's absolutely the right thing to do.
