"weak on family values"

Sucdems. Not even once.

But this is just "you're the REAL racist" for a different kind of lib

What did she mean by this?

i mean, she has to play the gringo game, i bet shes better than what most people give her credit for

Please put this stuff in the American Politics General.

so this is what leftcoms mean by left wing of capital, i understand it now

The only porky thing on that list is "national security."

We need more poor men in privatized prisons.

Weak on crime committed by rich white guys.

Not sure what she means by the first one but by weak on national security she means MUH RUSSIA XD and by weak on family values she means border seperations.

Also she is right. Due to terrible policies and a reliance on technology/drug war culture the ability of police departments to respond to genuine crimes has been retarded. Officers and departments are rewarded for repetitive sweeps of poor areas for drugs and rely on databases, instead of reinforcing investigative practices and community engagement (which can help point you to the baddies).

Fucking gaaaaaaay haha

You have absolutely no clue what you're talking about. You're literally just spouting off buzzwords you read on liberal papers.

Read Weisburd, "What Works in Crime Prevention and Rehabilitation".

All non-violent crime against property in all of its forms (but especially private property) under capitalism is arguably just.

Kek wisburd’s textbook is notorious for being a classic example of looking for data is back up assumptions. It is clearly a rebuttal to Martinson‘s outline of how crime management has been trash in the USA for decades. Basically it is a tool that police departments use to give college students studying criminology some legitimacy for their ideas and ideology.

But to actually critique the text instead of providing historical context for its creation and its role in universities:
They famously site only 2 studies for community engagement and they found that engagement is only partially successful at stoping at risk adolescents and ineffective at rehabilitation into society after a crime. Gills even admits in the study that the variables for determining what was a “successful engagement “ was, along with a lack of independent variables in the study.

Also I always kek when people pull out wisburd, because the dude literally states that he is hungry for raw dog action on new data, because the data available is so little or shit. So as a sociologist he admits that most of his conclusions are subject to change (especially from the point of view of social engagement and rehabilitation due to the exceptionally shit data/ few studies) On top of that he mentions that much of the data for police department enforcement of policies is self reported. And it is questionable at best (and pure ideology at worst) to assume that sentencing should only be seen as a deterrent and not also as factor leading to potential relapse into prison latter in for example. Hell wtf why are sentencing and deterrence even equates to one another as variables. Basically it is a statistical study on criminology if the only alternative to our current system was a hobbsian hellscape.

I could go on but I have to go to work Tomorrow. Note of advice: read your class textbooks critically, because they have a huge insensitive to legitimize themselves especially when you are in a variable heavy/ politically charged field like criminology.

I agree. My point is even within the twisted logic of American political discourse the suckdem is right.

‘Kek wisburd’s textbook is notorious for being a classic example of looking for data in order to back up previous assumptions.

Per this post:
