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.

Minnesota Governments Lack of Transparency

Data Practices Act Defendants in Marvin Pirila & Gail Francett e v. Thomson Township, etal., denied access to relevant information to their legal matter pursuant to the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act (MGDPA), even after learning it did not apply to them.   The MGDPA does not apply to towns, except those exercising special town powers under Minn.

Censorship, Media Bias, and Fake Impeachment Charges

Censorship, Media Bias, and Fake Impeachment Charges President Trump hasn't even left office and the left has run over all conservatives in its quest for Communism.  The unprecedented censorship and yet another fruitless impeachment process couldn't wait.  After calling for violence at least 28 times in the last year, the Democrats have the gall to suggest Trump incited violence on January 6th.  Anyone reading his message knows that claim has absolutely no merit whatsoever. In fact, read it yourself : Donald Trump: (02:44) The media will not show the magnitude of this crowd. Even I, when I turned on today, I looked, and I saw thousands of people here, but you don’t see hundreds of thousands of people behind you because they don’t want to show that. We have hundreds of thousands of people here, and I just want them to be recognized by the fake news media. Turn your cameras please and show what’s really happening out here because these people are not going to take it any lo...
