Stopping crime is simple--and has been known since forever.
Three felonies (of ANY kind!)--and you go to the joint for life.
Removal from society--not necessarily as "punishment".
Criminals identify themselves quite early in life.
Cities know *exactly* who their criminals are--and usually where they live.
THREE STRIKES AND YOU'RE OUT!
There will be sad, hard luck stories.
But--are they sadder than a 6-year old girl abducted, raped and murdered by a KNOWN sex offender?
Or--the other choice is--have your family and children and YOURSELF savaged, raped, stabbed, shot, car-jacked,
vivisected and robbed and burned down--ad infinitum. Like it is TODAY.
It really is--A Simple Choice.
Liberalism--stands in the way.
