Since you have changed the topic from political corruption to simple crime, that is a different argument. Have fun with it. But there is still the contention that crime has become worse to the extent that the culture has become Godless.
The majority of people DO NOT want crime. The crazy left are not the majority right?
Are the majority of people Democrats? What they "want" and what they 'want' may be contradictory. I live in the state of Washington, and the de facto public policy on crime is to excuse it, to ignore it, to approve it, and to nurture it, all under the platitudes of "dealing with the problem." Does the man who dislodges a boulder at the top of a mountain "want" an avalanche? He gets it, nonetheless, and it was entirely predictable. To say he doesn't want it is to accept insanity as a valid way of thinking. If the crazy left are not the majority, how did we come to this?
You said....."de facto public policy on crime is to excuse it, to ignore it"
This happens because the MINORITY cabal controls the political system in the area.
The MAJORITY of people are not saying defund the police.
Your reality is painted by an activist with a loud microphone. Then you believe these activists, thugs, and other shady people are how the majority feels.
You said... " If the crazy left is not the majority"
Simple.. because this small minority is willing to BEAT YOUR ASS and BURN DOWN YOUR HOME!!!!
The MAJORITY is not violent and will not do this.
If the majority was violent.
Then you would have tons of vigilantes out there going to find Antifa and BLM. And beating their asses for revenge.
Trouble maker people are sharks in a calm body of water. Most people want to move out of the way of the shark and not mess with it.
You can believe your own reality, but I just look at the facts. In most urban areas of Washington, Democrats prevail with their insane and deleterious programs. If we have democratic elections, they reflect the preference of the public majority. Don't fob that direct and indisputable responsibility onto Evil Cabal members who wouldn't be in office if the public didn't put them there.
Accordingly, the majority of people assented to defunding the police, by virtue of putting in office those who professed this as their policy. The majority don't have to be violent and burn down my home. They only have to stand by and allow the criminals to be violent and burn down my home. Accomplices share the same responsibility as the direct actors.
It's nice to dream about "tons of vigilantes," but we are far from that emerging. Did they show up for the mass riots in cities? They did not...and what would it take but that to prompt them to emerge?
My experience with the "majority" is that they are chickenshit complainers who prefer laziness to maintaining civic order and principles of justice and law. The people who have defended liberty have always been in the minority, working uphill, and always will be.
You also said "How did we come to this"
You are JOKING right???
We came to this because the mass MAJORITY thought the political system was looking out for their best interest.
The whole point of our movement is the "Great Awakening" of the "SILENT MAJORITY"!!
Never again will we trust MARKETING MESSAGES from political figures just telling us what we want to hear.
Never again will we trust any institution because they tell us to.
Maybe you are better than me.
But I was asleep as well. I thought they had our interest in mind.
Now we are finding out it's all a lie.
Join the club. I was aware of the bad antics of government back in the 1960s. Got my first taste of "anon" research (except it wasn't anonymous) in the investigative reporting on Timothy McVeigh and the Oklahoma City bombing, complete with explosion ballistics analysis and light on Elohim City. The John Birch Society was there first and always.
