Unnecessary Crime Brought To You By The ACLU

The answer to overcrowded prisons are bigger ones


The ACLU continues to file lawsuits to protest overcrowded prisons. The ACLU sues prisons they know they have the best chance of winning. In the end, the ACLU wins virtually every case.

In the three years after the ACLU wins, the prison population in these states drops by 15% relative to other states. The result: violent crime and property crime rise by 10% and five percent, respectively.

Moreover, an analysis by the authors of Super Freakonomics, Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner, found the total impact of TV on crime in the 1960's was an increase of 50% in property crimes and 25% in violent crimes. The data, however, failed to provide answers as to why.

In response to the ACLU law suits, why aren't bigger and/or more prisons being built? Why should citizens be subject to more crime, criminal investigation costs, and policing/court costs? Likewise, if we have tied specific prison sentences to specific crimes, why are we reducing sentences? The sentences no longer fit the crimes committed and justice is no longer served. The deterrent to committing crime has been significantly reduced.

In addition to rewarding criminals with shorter sentences, the cost to society is enormous. There are social, emotional, and mental costs that remain with the victims for the rest of their lives.

The public needs to demand enough prisons and space to accommodate full-term sentences for everyone, except in special cases where parole is warranted.

How about cheap prisons like the tent city Sheriff Arpaio used? Whether you agreed with Sheriff Arpaio or not, we must have the capacity necessary to hold all of our sentenced criminals for their full sentences.

Keep criminals behind bars and society will best be served.

ACORN that is continually in trouble for voter fraud also pushed the sub prime mortgage crisis that has destabilized our economy.   Disturbingly, Barack Obama promised ACORN that it was going to shape our national agenda.

Cloward and Frances Fox Piven, started ACORN in the 1970's.   All of them are neo-Marxist ideologists. Barack Obama's Start In ACORN ACORN is made up of several legally distinct parts including local non-profits, a national lobbying organization, and the ACORN Housing Corporation.   ACORN is partisan and always aligned with the Democratic Party on policy. Obama began to work for ACORN via Project Vote in 1992 and as a trainer for the "power" seminars.   ACORNs "People’s Platform Preamble" includes " We are an uncommon people. We are the majority, forged from all minorities.   We are the masses of many, not the...

The Treasonous Democrat Party Unmasked

The treasonous Democrat Party is finally unmasked   For 2 1/2 years the Democrats perpetuated the greatest hoax on the citizens of the U.S. and now their name is permanently etched in the history books for keeping to conformed, puppet-like party duty.  When one says something, the rest parrot it like a sick bird.  It's no wonder Democrats and their cronies (including the party bought media - CNN, MSNBC, NBC, etc.) were so hell-bent on impeaching Donald Trump.  They just couldn't have their power diluted or their egregious acts against Americans and the Constitution known.  The sheep couldn't know what you had done in the name of keeping your crony powers in place.  Thank God, President Trump got elected and withstood your phony impeachment trials.  What a waste of our (taxpayer) money (Mueller, lawsuits, etc.).  When it was all opened to public view, it showed no evidence of collusion.  None.  You have become so much more than a baby kil...
