- bpodgursky 8mo agoThis is literally true and you think you are being snarky but just look ignorant.
- FpUser 8mo agoIgnorant of what may I ask? Also I do not "think".

- laksjhdlka 8mo agoI can't tell which element(s) of the previous post you are criticizing.
- Izikiel43 8mo agoDepends a lot on the city/state. Check super blue cities like Seattle or San Francisco, and the people there complain that the justice system doesn't work as repeat offenders are let go, for one reason or another. The big incarceration states are most likely deep red states.
- FpUser 8mo agoI live in Canada, to me the US is a whole. I am pretty sure one can find close to crimeless areas there along with something totally opposite. does not matter from the outside.
- Mordisquitos 8mo agoThe incarceration rate of every single US state is higher than that of every country in the European continent except Belarus, Russia and Turkey. Each state's incarceration rate is also higher than that of every country in the OECD (a club of mostly rich countries) except Chile, Costa Rica and Turkey. Of the exceptions I have listed, Turkey has the highest incarceration rate of 366 per 100k. Even so, it is still lower than that of 41 states, falling between Hawaii (367) and Connecticut (326).
