I’m chalking this one up to your usernameWhy would you ever admit to that

Yea data is a factor, what kind of data and how it correlates is important also. So you’re saying it’s a non issue all those business are closing stores because of crime ? Specifically the ruling of 800 or less isn’t a crime I think.There are 50-plus Walgreens locations in the city now. The ones that closed were not reporting a high amount of shoplifting so most people think the explanation is bullshit. But either way, you learn more about relative levels of crime in a place by looking at data than sensationalist videos. Surely you agree with that, right?
Wouldn’t living there place her firmly in the top 1%? If she bought it today, at least.???
I think maybe you have the wrong idea about how rich she is? Lot of misinfo along those lines going around. Here's her place (the reddish brown one in the front):

Not like some kind of huge mansion.
Wrong party? Lol. Talk about projecting your biases on others. Same as thinking I'm implying only one possibility.
I just can't wrap my head around how someone had such easy access to this dude. My way of thinking is such a thing should be next to impossible and only be achievable by some 007 type of a character. If it was due to simple negligence then I'm simply blown away. As I said, that could be possible, but just doesn't compute.

If people make moronic predictions with certainty in the beginning before all the info comes out I think its perfectly fair and good to rub their noses in it once they've been proven wrong. I remember the Quebec mosque shooting being a good example, lots of morons were pushing the narrative that the shooter couldn't be white because otherwise they would've released his name and photo immediately and therefore it had to have been a Muslim perpetrator only for the suspect to have been a white nationalist in the end. Rebel Media ran with the original claims of Muslim suspects for weeks after that, trying to push some CT. Actors like that should be shamed.
So you are refuting the article with what substance ?You said Walgreens closed 5 of its more than 50 locations in the city because of crime, and I said the claim is dubious, and those locations have not reported a high level of crime. And, no, all shoplifting is a crime. It was a misdemeanor under $950 before that got changed.
If those same actors don’t jump to conclusions in other threads then sure. It would be heathy for the majority to say let’s wait for the details and even when we get the details, it doesn’t say really anything definitely about the different sides of American politics. Actually, I’m not so sure now because what that does is somewhat vindicate them if they guess early and are right. My point is the guessing and outcome of the guessing has an underlying theme to it that it successful overlaps with the mainstream of the other side when it doesn’t so I don’t even want much risk/ reward applied to the guessing to begin with. You can guess right and then not understand how it was still not a good practice to do.

Exactly. The level is low compared to the '70s but the trend is really bad. I also think you're seeing more high-level involvement, like Trump himself encouraging election CTs, and a lot of elected officials backing it. Not aware of that happening during the '70s (though correct me if there was something similar then).
So you are refuting the article with what substance ?
Can you show me other home invasions resulting in this "cashless bail"?Looks like they caught the guy. Lets see if he gets the same "cashless bail" treatment that most get in California.
Did FBI visit Rand Paul’s neighbor ?
I dunno, maybe he does? That doesn't make him impervious. Rushdie was very famously under threat and has had a whole team guarding him and some guy still got him.
You spend enough time on the internet, you start thinking the real world gives a shit about what you're doing there. <{chips}>Why would you ever admit to that
Thus I repeat for the millionth time, anecdotes aren't worth a fuck.The article doesn't answer the question that we're looking at. No one is claiming zero crime. My claim is that the data is a better guide to the amount of crime than whatever alternative you are proposing (gut feeling? Anything else?). I added context for Walgreens' claim, too. Specifically, they have more than 50 locations in the city currently. They closed five, but those five had not reported a large amount of theft. Seems more likely that they're just oversaturated, no? The city is only 47 square miles.

i dont know why it should matter which political side somebody falls in when they break into some 82 year old mans home and bludgeon him with a hammer
but as usual, the right needs to know what side of the political spectrum the guy is on so that they know whether or not they should support law and order or even condemn such a despicable act.
