Z09 Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 The Bay Area city of Richmond, California pays would-be killers $12,000 a year not to murder people with guns. The program is designed to reduce deaths by providing recent parolees and other susceptible persons with a financial incentive that encourages them to avoid killing other humans with guns. According to the Washington Post, the city of Richmond hires “ex-convicts to mentor dozens of its most violent offenders and allows them to take unconventional steps if it means preventing the next homicide.” Some of these “unconventional steps” include overlooking certain crimes–including a few homicides–and trying to match violent offenders with “rival gang members” as a means of checking behavior.

Z09 Posted August 24, 2016 Author Share Posted August 24, 2016 Well it will cut the prison cost by 10 million dollars. Or we could just pass some laws to make it harder for criminals to get guns. This is just about as dumb as it gets... Giving people $$ not to commit crimes....? Why stop at $12,000 a year? How about a new boat and a home too? I mean why work right?

If you did away with all laws it would cut the prison cost by even more. Idiot. Send them to a hypodermic hoedown...they wont kill again.

KneeJerk Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 This sounds like another vote for the death penalty. Felony = the chair. Simple. Saves money, reduces prison population by eliminating recidivism, enhances safety and freedom for the rest of us. A hundred years ago this is how things were done. Sometimes new isn't better. kj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z09 Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 You guys have no money. Your red states. So we should give wanna be crooks money upfront not to rob or kill us? Isn't that what the mafia did to small business owners? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z09 Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 You guys can't build businesses. You have to go get them from blue states. You can't build them. The red states beg business to leave us by giving away the farm.and cutting education and wages. Not sure what that has to do with California giving criminals money upfront not to rob us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z09 Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 You have red states lowering wages and cutting services for the poor to attract these businesses give away the farm to attract them. They don't have the tax base to do the things the democrats can do in building an economy and maintaining it. And that has an effect on California giving people $1000 a month for not committing crimes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z09 Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 The fact is California is three of your top Republican economies. Takes in twice as much as Texas. California makes twice as much and has about the same unfunded debt as Texas with Texas having a much smaller population. What does that have to do with tax dollars being given to would-be criminals? It appears you can't answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
