when new york had descended into a dangerous no-go zone 30 years ago, rudy giuliani was voted in as major to 'fix' the city he famously did so by being tough on all crime, like kids breaking windows
now that people cared enough to lock them up, the crims got the message, crime dropped dramatically and the city moved on to a golden age rudy was fetted and that should have been his legacy but he then went of to become trump's delusional legal council...en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudy_Giulianibut the wokes reject the proven solutions in favour of very, very fuzzy ideology that would appear to need generations of rewarding criminals in the hopes their grandchildren eventually behave??? 5 years of woke criminal mismanagement and even jacinda's natural fan base are now worried of becoming victims of labour's increasingly criminal element “He’s not a local,” she grimaces, meaning he wasn’t part of K Rd’s street community who largely get on with the businesses, “and he was acting like he had a gun.”
Everyone flinched. Not because we’re unaccustomed to trouble. (I mean, this is K Rd.) But because Orange Jacket represents everything we’re most scared of right now. A shooting.
The CBD feels mercurial at the moment. Like it’s a full moon, all day, every day.
And it’s not just me, nor is it just Auckland. Ipsos, which polls Kiwis for the issues they’re most concerned about, has crime fears at the highest levels since it began polling in 2018. It’s been steadily increasing since February this year. www.stuff.co.nz/opinion/130736453/the-fear-thats-descended-on-aucklands-cbdwww.newshub.co.nz/home/new-zealand/2022/12/police-searching-for-two-men-following-stabbing-near-christchurch-mall.html

This is disgusting. So heartbreaking. Indeed, the guy is a neighbour of one of my colleagues and just talking to a another mate - his son plays rugby with the guy's son. No one knows how he will come out of this but concern is he will never walk or talk again. Coincidentally there were some yahoo's doing some doughnuts down the bottom of my road on Sunday morning, did have some thoughts about going to tell them to pull their heads in, might have been a good thing I did not. Take a bow J Ardern A Little C Hipkins K Davis and every other Labour party member along with Cuddles Coster you are directly responsible for this man's state, the dairy worker murdered in Sandringham and all the other victims of violent assaults due to your kid glove policies

remember the idiotic, woke, "defund the police" rhetoric coming out of the usa a few years ago? nowhere was it stronger than dope smoking portland, oregon so how's a few years of this new experiment working out? “Portland is broken,” he said in a statement in February announcing his reelection bid.“We haven’t done everything right, but anybody who watched the trajectory of Portland, I think, realized that we earned a reputation as a community that was growing and thriving and was a magnet,” he said, speaking of the city’s recent history.Now, though, Blumenauer bikes through the city and sees piles of garbage and people unable to cope with their afflictions. He hears about sharply rising gun violence. His car’s catalytic converter, like many others, was ripped out by thieves.It’s not that people aren’t still working to make a better Portland, Blumenauer says, but “collectively I am concerned. Collectively it feels like it’s broken. Collectively it seems like we have challenges unlike any we have ever faced.”www.opb.org/article/2022/05/13/portland-oregon-crime-homelessness-gloom-election-politics/www.oregonlive.com/business/2021/05/downtown-in-distress-portlands-core-is-unsafe-and-uninviting-residents-say-in-new-poll-threatening-citys-recovery.htmlwww.politico.com/news/magazine/2020/09/23/portland-problem-democrats-cant-solve-420152the whole concept that you can blame others for your misfortunes and act up until the gov. fixes your life is an absolute moral abrogation of what it is to be human

a colleague's son is a cop, currently working Sth Auckland. Said they recently picked up the same 15 year old 3 nights in a row committing crimes, each time when they delivered him home, because there is nothing else they can do with him, all the parent(s) could say was "what has he done now"? The beat cops are just as frustrated as the rest of us. I don't know if there is a silver bullet answer but the 2 things come to mind are 1. keeping the young kids in school - which means finding ways of getting them interested in being there, que the Charter Schools which showed this was possible and secondly get them into the workforce , which I appreciate also has some major challenges. There is a line of thought to hold the parents responsible, which I support to a certain degree, but I have also seen the challenges friends have had with rebellious teenagers driven to their wits end trying to get them on the straight and narrow.

remember the idiotic, woke, "defund the police" rhetoric coming out of the usa a few years ago? They are still at it. I saw some say they want that in a media piece only a few days ago. When asked "What do you think will happen if we have no Police?' 2 of the responses were pretty much 'We'll all live happier together'. I think even the dog in the back ground rolled it's eyes.

so Waikato's Police Area Commander acknowledges crime is out of control on his patch thebfd.co.nz/2022/12/20/out-of-control-and-whose-fault-is-that-pray-tell/This top cop has said out loud what many innocent people on the streets of our towns and cities have been saying for some time. Crime is out of control. The first duty of any government is to protect its citizens. In this regard, the Labour Government, along with those given the powers to enforce the law and keep crime under control, have failed us. If crime is out of control, that is wholly the fault of this Government and its Police force. Civilians are not allowed, and are constantly are told not to get involved.

What have National said they are going to do about crime? They are going to win the election. But will they do anything to stop this? Or does the crime just continue? Edit. Their policy falls massively short of the funds and people required to stop crime. This crime is just going to be the new normal, National aren't going to change anything. National Policy On Crime

the government's softly softly approach is aided and abetted by activist judges, look how they always tried to find work around's for the 3 strikes law. Latest example of the judiciary showing they live in Lala land, from Kiwiblog
Fingerprinting 501s is a breach of their human rights! Stuff reports:
A 501 deportee had several human rights breached by the Government and his treatment was unlawful, the High Court has found.
Two thousand people have been deported from Australia to New Zealand since 2014 under s 501 of Australia’s Migration Act 1958, giving them the name “501” deportees. …
The judgment, delivered by Justice Cheryl Gwyn in the Wellington High Court, found that the deportee’s treatment as a 501 returned prisoner from Australia breached the right to natural justice, freedom of movement, and to be free from unreasonable search and seizure.
Additionally the government had breached the prohibition against retrospective penalties and double jeopardy.
New Zealand law allows the Government to apply strict parole-like conditions to returning offenders, and was passed to deal with deportees from Australia like G.It applies to anyone returning from another country after serving a year or more in prison, within six months from when they were released from custody.
Just another sign that the justice system is here for criminals, not victims.
Parliament explicitly passed a law to allow authorities to do stuff like collect fingerprints from the deportees. But Justice Gwen has decided in an Alice in Wonderland like judgment that this doesn’t apply to deportees who had already committed crimes overseas, but only to future deportees who commit future crimes. This was very clearly not the intent of Parliament.
