re: #424 Thanos

Sorry but crime has been around forever, we have law enforcement for that — indeed it’s way down compared to past decades. We don’t need to fear that shit if we don’t happen to live in that one bad area of town.

Around here women jog at night by themselves without fear - if you don’t live somewhere like that you probably should move.

Would be a great solution if everyone could afford to leave dangerous situations and were free to do so. Reference..

Police ramped up their investigation Thursday into the case of a 7-year-old girl who they say was gang-raped by a group of men while her 15-year-old stepsister watched and got paid for it.

Police conducted a pre-dawn raid at the troubled public housing complex, a high-rise apartment building so dangerous that officers are hired as security guards at night.

one source for story link…

Part of the problem has been that people are afraid to testify against their neighbors.
