Cities nationwide are facing a dual challenge when it comes to public safety. The place-based assets proven to keep communities safe—including employment, housing, and education—are under threat at the same time that punitive measures shown to exacerbate crime, recidivism, and taxpayer costs are being championed.
Always have! Severity of punishment has been repeatedly proven to have little to no effect on deterrence. In the US it is not based on lowering crime or rehabilitating criminals, it’s about making money and inflicting punishment.
Prison industrial complex goes brrrrrr
Living wages, clean places to live, morehealthcare, less police funding, more education funding, safe injection sites, are just a few thingss that make cities safer
Police only create crime and criminals

Like all the schools with Zero Tolerance policies where kids get kicked out of school for misunderstandings, or just things that a kid can’t yet have known to not do. So one mistake and now the kid has a hard time getting an education, which leads to a worse life.
