So again, your approach would do nothing to solve the problem and would in fact make it worse by constantly pushing the homeless population around and causing mismatches between shelter capacity and shelter needs. Genius.
Same point. It doesn't take much to have a "budget shortfall" and need to close those offices. Again this happens a suspicious amount of the time whenever ID requirements are tightened.
And you want those to be arrestable offenses? Maybe one of those would survive a constitutional review. You're trying to fix a leaky boat with a hammer if you think policing is the way forward by and large.
Even assuming those laws survive, you arrest someone and then...what? They get out of...
If only there was a middle ground between those two extremes you've highlighted. Eh, oh well, guess not since everyone knows all policy questions have only 2 potential outcomes, and never anymore that that.
So what do you want? A 3 strikes law? I don't pretend to have easy answers on this, but the 3 strikes law was pretty disastrous and ineffective. Not to mention simply imprisoning more people is unsustainable without sinking absurd amounts of money into more prisons -- and all for incredibly iffy...
If only that guy could have waited to get banned until later this year, he'd have had so much more ammo since Lunar Lake is going to ramp slowly and there will be as much competition as we've ever seen in decades for processors.
Please point out the part that legalizes stealing.
Again, what did Gavin due that downgraded shoplifting to a misdemeanor? I don't think you understand how propositions work.
Not to mention I'm skeptical that tossing someone in jail for shoplifting is going to lead them to being a productive...
I'm skeptical of your knowledge of homelessness if you don't realize that the vast majority of shelters are closed during the day...
What a great country we live in, we don't even need bootstraps or Rocky music anymore to solve systemic afflictions.
It's mentioned all the time, it's just...
How did he make stealing legal?
You clearly have never been to downtown LA if you think businesses weren't the Fashion District already. Gavin has also done more about homelessness than nearly every other governor in recent memory. The fault here lies mostly with the city and county.
Yeah...
Sort of. It's not that IDs are expensive it's not obtaining them is the issue. It doesn't matter if the ID is free if say, the state closes the DMV near you. Ultimately, the issue with voting ID is it's solving a problem that doesn't really exist.
It could be, but my gut tells me that the venn diagram of those who want stricter requirements for voting and those who oppose a national ID has a lot of overlap.
