The problem we have with law enforcement in the US is that the mentality that says if people think they’re going to get beat up or put in jail they won’t commit crimes. We will never punish our way out of crime; the people who make the rules can’t comprehend the mentality that either doesn’t consider the consequences or don’t care – prison, for some people, is part of life.
Good education and opportunities are the way to short-circuit the crime carousel.
