As we head into November’s election, voters consistently say that crime is a top issue. Sixty-three percent of Americans said that crime was “extremely or very serious” in the country, according to the annual Gallup survey released in November. And many people believe that the kind of initiatives pushed by advocates of criminal justice reform are to blame.
Nowhere is that debate more passionate than in San Francisco, a city where everything from shampoo to gum is under lock and key at Walgreens and signs hang in parked cars that read: “Please do not break into this car. No valuables here.” Fully fifty percent of stores in the city’s downtown have shuttered because of theft.
That’s why we convened Michael Shellenberger, Seneca Scott, Kmele Foster, and Lara Bazelon for a debate in front of a sold-out house.
gonna be a great debate !
looking forward to this, I just looked at the sub count, how do you only have 101k ? that seams crazy.
Looking forward to it! Criminal Justice and the Prison system are subjects I am interested in but know next-to-nothing about! Looking forward to seeing Kemele Foster and Michael Shellenberger on opposite sides of the issue since I admire both their work.
I think we have enough data on crime and punishment now to know what is effective. We need to look at the countries that have the lowest crime rates and see what they are doing and then see if we can we emulate that.
We do know enough. But looking at other nations is not going to help. We know who the criminals are and we know where they live. We just don't have the will to take care of business.
@@glennwatson3313agreed. Other countries low rates of crime may not jibe with ours as we have different racial breakdown percentages than those nations.
No thanks!
A rich and valuable culture
