I am against red flag laws but it is soooo funny that the one area it might make a tiny bit of sense (even though they will get their guns illegally)is gang members. Because 91% of gangs are black and hispanic they won't do it because it is 'racist' the racism of the gaps. They would rather take guns from conservatives. Deem them wrong think and untrustworthy to own guns

[FONT=Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Calibri,Geneva,sans-serif]Most of the mass shooters have mental problems so red flag laws make sense.

However like all laws they tend to be abused. I believe it would be used as
gun confiscation. So like you I'm against them.

I'm not opposed to more extensive background checks, especially with respect to mental health issues and even social postings, it's the world we live in today.

I've always been an advocate for profiling. It's not racist, it's efficient and effective. Our security measures when it comes to the general public are cosmetic

As for gang members, I think they tend to use Saturday night specials

The more likely culprits of elevated violence:
(1) sharp cuts in incarceration,
(2) prosecutorial retreat from low-level offenses and drug laws and
(3) the alienation of each city’s most capable guardians: cops.

Start with incarceration. Maryland cut its prison population, largely from Baltimore, by nearly 23% from 2007 to 2017. The state cut the prison population by a whopping 10% in just one year, 2016-17. Ditto for Illinois. Between 2015 and 2018, the number of state prisoners from Cook County (which includes Chicago) fell more than 18%, with much of the decline coming after 2016.

That kind of rapid, large-scale decarceration means more criminals on the street, where they will continue to settle their disputes violently, often with firearms they seem to have no fear of carrying in public. A third of Baltimore homicide suspects in 2017 committed their alleged offenses while on probation or parole, despite having an average of nearly 10 prior arrests. In Chicago, those arrested for shootings or homicides in 2015-16 had an average of 12 prior arrests.

The best way to describe crimes committed by high-volume, repeat offenders? Avoidable.

Then there is the prosecutorial retreat — particularly from drug enforcement. In Baltimore, 70% of 2017 homicide suspects also had prior drug arrests. In Chicago, meanwhile, drug arrests declined by 44% just before the 2016 spike in violent crime. And while correlation isn’t causation, there is clear overlap between supposedly “nonviolent” drug offenders and shooters. Progressive prosecutors take note.

As police internalize the message that “low-level” drug offenses won’t be aggressively pursued, street enforcement wanes, which means more open-air drug dealing and, in turn, more street brutality.

Which brings us to the third cause of elevated violence in both Baltimore and Chicago: rollbacks in proactive policing. According to USA Today, between 2014 and 2017, “suspected narcotics offenses” reported by Baltimore police “dropped 30%,” while “the number of people they reported seeing with outstanding warrants dropped by half. The number of . . . instances in which the police approached someone for questioning — dropped 70%.”

In Chicago, the number of monthly stops conducted by police dropped below 10,000, from a historic average of about 40,000 — a major cause of the 2016 violence spike.

who won the murder and rat infested city for 2022? CHI, PHI, DC, or BAL?

 

[rolltide]

more winning for Baltimore, a perfect 100%!

Baltimore City’s math scores were the lowest in the state. Just 7 percent of third through eighth graders tested proficient in math, which means 93 percent could not do math at grade level.

But that’s not all; Project Baltimore combed through the scores at all 150 City Schools where the state math test was given.

Project Baltimore found, in 23 Baltimore City schools, there were zero students who tested proficient in math. Not a single student.

“My immediate reaction is, take your kids out of these schools”

They spend $21,606 per student and the students can't do basic division.

Remember, teachers are underpaid heroes.
