If you want to fight crime you reduce poverty. If want to fight crime you make each school in America a palace of learning. If you want to fight crime you eradicate unnecessary human suffering. If you want to fight crime you fight the origins of despair. You do not invade cities.

So your solution is to let folks burn and destroy property? Terrorize motorists? Why can’t you do in all the above situation? You have some good thoughts, but you cannot ignore the lawlessness.

I wonder what you think is happening in the cities he's planning to invade, and how you think troops will just come in and handle it. Btw violent crime now kills a fraction of what Covid-19 kills and he has chosen to do nothing. You see no problem there, no propaganda stunt?

Targeting poor people requires a lot less money reducing poverty, improving the educational system and eliminating suffering. trump declared war on America because he can't do it against russia, iran, nk or china.

I think you are right in the grand scheme but there had been very little progress over my lifetime. Clearly core investments need to be made but safety and security are requisites in my view. A forest can’t take root in a wild fire but when the fire is over new growth can begin.

Security =investment =jobs =growth =wealth =on and on. Safe communities encourage growth. Fear encourages flight.

That should have been done 243 years ago

So what would you call what ANTIFA is doing in these cities? Are they “invading” or let me guess... theyre just #PeacefulProtesting. @realDonaldTrump is making the only choice there was- to do everything he can to restore #LawAndOrder and try to end the current wars in our cities

If you want to fight crime, you stop letting the top percent take all the dough giving the rest crumbs!
