Why do we allow criminals to walk among us?

Very serious question.

We know we have several cities/counties and even states that tolerate it. California even raised the amount shoplifters could steal, which simply allowed them to steal more, without consequence. They have since lowered the amount and now, again, after citizens and stores got so fed up with crime, started arresting shoplifters. Illinois and several other states have "no cash bail" policies that let criminals walk the streets within hours of getting arrested.

Now we have leftist Democrats leading marches against cracking down on crime.

And we have a public that is outraged by crime.


The Image That Killed The Democrats In 2026 And Beyond

And just like that, it's over for the Dems in the 2026 midterms. Maybe even the 2028 general election. Maybe this is even the final nail in their creaky, splintering, mentally ill, Marxist coffin.
Right now, they're trying to ignore it, the way they tried to pretend Hunter Biden's laptop didn't exist back in 2020. They were successful enough that time to push their vote machine over the finish line in Biden/Harris's favor, but that won't happen this time. This story, this image, is already out there.
Still, they're trying to ignore it, hoping it goes away:


The only explanation I've seen anywhere is, "Oh, it was never covered nationally because it was only a local story." Sure. Like George Floyd's overdose in police custody was only a local story. Good luck with that dodge, lefties.
In all fairness to Democrats, their policies have made this situation so common that it may well have disappeared into the din. A violent lunatic with fourteen previous arrests under his belt but who still freely roamed the streets randomly and viciously stabbed a young woman on the train, killing her. The murder occurred over two weeks ago, and they had every reason to believe the "local crime story" was as dead as the beautiful young victim.
But then, the video emerged. It's chilling and terrifying, the horror that every urban female (and plenty of males) fears. The still image of the moment the madman's knife begins its descent is the most damning optic I've seen in years, and it will now become the face of the modern Democrat party.
It gets worse for Democrats: The victim was not only young, female, and stunning, but she was a refugee from Ukraine — one of their fetish victims.

The New York Post is one outlet that covered the story:
Haunting new video revealed the terrifying moment a homeless ex-con allegedly fatally stabbed a 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee in what police said was a random attack on a Charlotte light rail train.
Iryna Zarutska, who fled war-torn Ukraine for a safer life in America, was on the Lynx Blue Line just before 10 p.m. Aug. 22 when she was ambushed, according to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department.
The surveillance footage, released Friday by the Charlotte Area Transit System or CATS, shows Zarutska boarding the train in her pizzeria uniform at 9:46 p.m. and sitting, looking at her phone, unaware of the danger behind her.
Just four minutes later, 34-year-old Decarlos Brown Jr. allegedly whips out a folding knife and lunges forward, stabbing her three times, at least once in the neck, police said.
Those eyes, that brave smile, her courageous backstory — fleeing war-torn Ukraine for a chance at safety and freedom in America, taking a humble job as a pizza clerk in Charlotte, N.C.
Laken Riley, the young nursing student murdered by one of then-President Joe Biden's illegal aliens, became a poster child for stopping the invasion. The description of her murder was shocking to the public consciousness, but still, it was only words.
Robin Westman's murder and maiming of young Catholic school kids at prayer was a shocking and tragic story. It was powerful enough to finally spark the public debate about what kind of medications are given to youth with gender dysphoria and whether they are sane enough to own guns. But still, that story was also only told in words.
Here, we have the video of the savage act committed by another Democrat sacred cow, a black, homeless man — you know, the kind of sweet, innocent victim those awful racist cops are always trying to murder.
Even as Democrats surge in the streets of Washington, D.C., protesting the president's crackdown on crime, this chilling video and this electrifying still image have hit the internet. The left could not be caught further out on the wrong side of the issue. They are exposed as the heinous morons they are.
A confession: I do occasionally worry about Trump's over-the-top rhetoric and willingness to push the bounds of executive power even further than former President Barack Obama did. I know he's doing the right things, but every time he calls out the guard or sics the FBI on someone or blows up a boat of our enemies, I can all too easily picture the next rabid Democrat president goring my ox in the same way.
But then I see something like this, and I thank God for the man in the White House who has climbed athwart history, yelling, "Stop!" (With apologies to the Buckleys.)
Because in the end, Democrats champion mental illness, crime, and the breakdown of civil order; they champion evil. Republicans fight it. Period.
It's over, Democrats. Begone with you.
 
Of the few liberal jackasses I know, they are still liberal jackasses. And digging in.
Republican politicians need to be broadcasting videos like this. All the time. Where are they? Why aren't they shooting at the top of their lungs?
On another note, no politician has been arrested for anything. None. Nobody. I don't have that many years left, but I'm afraid I'm going to see the United Socialist States of America before I'm gone.
 
The politicians are clowns and the media is full of people who are INTENTIONALLY HIDING the crime stats.

So the story I posted above about the young Ukrainian woman who was brutally killed on the train received the following coverage:
0 AP stories on this deadly attack
0 PBS stories on this deadly attack
0 NYT stories on this deadly attack
0 NPR stories on this deadly attack
0 WSJ stories on this deadly attack
0 BBC stories on this deadly attack
0 CNN stories on this deadly attack
0 WAPO stories on this deadly attack
0 Reuters stories on this deadly attack
0 MSNBC stories on this deadIy attack

But let me ask you if you recall the young Marine named Daniel Penny who stopped an attacker on the NYC Subway, and, while saving people on the train, from a serial felony offender, accidentally choked the thug to death. He was FRONT PAGE NEWS for weeks, being vilified as a vigilante by the above media sources who painted him in all sorts of unsavory ways. Ultimately he was found NOT GUILTY by a jury in a trial that should never have even occurred.

But what explains the difference in coverage? And why are these news outlets so biased? And especially why are they so biased on an issue like crime, which affects everyone expect the people who can afford to live in private neighborhoods with private security?

Josh Hammer wrote the following piece, published by Newsweek, that seems to really nail how crazy the crime issue is in our hyper-political culture.


The Art of the 80-20 Issue

Josh HammerSeptember 05, 2025
Donald Trump's recent floated proposal to deploy the National Guard to crime-overrun blue cities like Chicago and Baltimore has been met with howls of outrage from the usual suspects. For many liberal talking heads and Democratic officials, this is simply the latest evidence of Trump's "authoritarianism." But such specious analysis and manufactured hysteria distract from what all parties ought to properly focus on: the well-being of the people who actually live in such crime-addled jurisdictions.
What's remarkable is not just the specific policy suggestion itself -- after all, federal force has been called in to assist state-level law enforcement plenty of times -- but rather how Trump is once again baiting his political opponents into defending the indefensible. He has a singular talent for making the Left clutch onto wildly unpopular positions and take the wrong side of clear 80-20 issues. It's political jiu-jitsu at its finest.
Crime in cities like Chicago and Baltimore isn't a right-wing fever dream. It's a persistent, documented crisis that continues to destroy communities and ruin lives. Chicago saw nearly 600 homicides in 2024 alone, "earning" it the dubious title of America's homicide capital for the 13th consecutive year. In Baltimore, despite a recent downtick, violent crime remains exponentially higher than national averages. Sustained, decadeslong Democratic leadership in both cities has failed, time and again, to secure even a minimum baseline level of safety for its residents -- many of whom are Black and working-class, the very communities Democrats purport to champion.
Trump sees that leadership and quality-of-life vacuum. And he's filling it with a popular message of law and order.
Trump's proposal to deploy the National Guard -- if local leadership continues to abdicate their most basic governance duties -- isn't the flight of fancy of a would-be strongman. It's federalism functioning as the Founders intended: The federal government must step in, per Article IV of the Constitution, when local governance breaks down so catastrophically that the feds are needed to "guarantee ... a republican form of government." Even more specifically, the Insurrection Act of 1807 has long been available as a congressionally authorized tool for presidents to restore order when state unrest reaches truly intolerable levels. Presidents from Jefferson to Eisenhower to Bush 41 have invoked it.
Trump's critics would rather not have a conversation about bloody cities like Chicago -- or the long history of presidents deploying the National Guard when local circumstances require it. They'd rather scream "fascism" than explain why a grandmother in Englewood should have to dodge gang bullets on her way to church. They'd rather chant slogans about "abolishing the police" than face the hard fact that the communities most devastated by crime consistently clamor for more law enforcement -- not less.
This is where Trump's political instincts shine. He doesn't try to "win" the crime debate by splitting the difference with progressives. He doesn't offer a milquetoast promise to fund "violence interrupters" or expand toothless social programs. He goes right at the issue, knowing full well that the American people are with him.
Because they are. The public has consistently ranked crime and safety among their top concerns; last November, it was usually a top-five issue in general election exit polling. And polling consistently shows that overwhelming majorities -- often in the 70%-80% range -- support more police funding and oppose the Left's radical decarceration agenda. Democrats, ever in thrall to their activist far-left flank, are stuck defending policies with rhetoric that most voters correctly identify as both dangerous and absurd.
Trump knows that when he floats these proposals, Democrats and their corporate media allies won't respond with nuance. They'll respond with knee-jerk outrage -- just as they did in 2020, when Trump sent federal agents to Portland to stop violent anarchists from torching courthouses. The media framed it as martial law; sane Oregonians saw it as basic governance.
This dynamic plays out again and again. When Trump highlights the border crisis and the need to deport unsavory figures like Mahmoud Khalil and Kilmar Abrego Garcia, Democrats defend open borders. When Trump attacks gender ideology indoctrination in schools, Democrats double down on letting teachers hide children's "transitions" from their parents. When Trump condemns pro-Hamas rioters in American cities, Democrats can't bring themselves to say a word of support for Israel's war against a U.S. State Department-recognized foreign terrorist organization. When Trump signs an executive order seeking to partially recriminalize flag burning, Democrats defend flag burning.
On and on it goes. By now, it's a well-established pattern. And it's politically devastating for the Left. Moreover, the relevant history is on Trump's side. This sort of federal corrective goes back all the way to the republic's origins; those now freaking out might want to read up on George Washington's efforts to quash the Whiskey Rebellion in 1794.
Call it the art of the 80-20 issue. Along with his sheer sense of humor, Trump's instinctual knack for picking such winning battles is one of his greatest political assets. And this time, the winner won't just be Trump himself -- it will be Chicagoans and Baltimoreans as well.
 
The media is pretending that none of this crime is happening because it doesn't fit their narrative.

Whether it is a transgender shooter killing children, which was in the news cycle for about 48 hours or a black on black crime, or black on white crime, or whenever a 'victim' class criminal assaults/kills a 'privileged' class victim.

But why do WE as citizens allow this to continue? I understand why politicians and media don't want people to know about crime. But we do know and we still allow it.


Why is the media silent about Iryna Zarutska’s murder?

A video showing the murder of 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on public transport in Charlotte, North Carolina, has sent shockwaves round the world. It has also reignited debate over the widening ideological gulf in news reporting. The video shows Zarutska sitting alone, scrolling her phone, while behind her Decarlos Williams, a 35-year-old black man with a long history of arrest and diagnosed schizophrenia, rises to his feet and swings a knife toward her unsuspecting neck.
The incident reached viral escape velocity when Elon Musk reposted a comment on X noting the dearth of coverage in progressive outlets, a media omertà that still largely holds at the time of writing. But this relative silence is perhaps unsurprising. Every detail of the incident cuts against the received progressive worldview, on so many angles and with so total an absence of confounding counter-narrative, that no Left-wing outlet could report on it without fearing its weaponisation by the Right, within the perennially sensitive topic of American race politics.
This unhappy subject could — and does — fill whole libraries, but is especially bitter where crime statistics are concerned. Debate over the reality, aetiology, and proper response to documented per-capita disparities in criminal violence between white and black Americans is itself too bottomless a source of partisan online discourse to be readily summarised. But this subject periodically bubbles up in the culture war: among other recent controversies, this topic shaped partisan interpretations of George Floyd’s death in 2020, the subsequent Black Lives Matter craze, efforts to “defund the police”, and ongoing debates over urban homelessness, drug use, and shoplifting.
Latterly, too, it provided the subtext to high-profile incidents such as the death of Jordan Neely, who was black, while restrained on a NYC subway by white military veteran Daniel Penny. Penny was later tried for homicide, and finally acquitted. It also fuelled public debate around the death by stabbing of 17-year-old high school athlete Austin Metcalf, who was white, by black fellow student Karmelo Anthony at a school athletics event.
In addition to alleging a racialised disparity in propensity to criminal violence, the Right also claims that the progressive press seeks methodically to report cases so as to invert this disparity. That such violence is preponderantly and unjustly perpetrated by white people, especially police officers, against black Americans, was the animating claim that drove the Black Lives Matter protests and subsequent calls to “defund the police”. In a similar vein, there are dozens of New York Times articles on the Daniel Penny trial, while I could find none on the death of Austin Metcalf.
It is hardly surprising, in this febrile context, that Zarutska’s murder has been so widely reported by Right-wing outlets, not just for its shocking brutality but also as an example of this media bias in action. The victim’s slenderness, youth and prettiness makes her the perfect martyr. Nor should we be surprised that the progressive press has struggled to frame the attack. Unlike the Daniel Penny incident, there is no ambiguity over what happened: the video shows an unprovoked and senseless attack on a defenceless lone white woman by a black man with a knife. Worse still, the victim isn’t even the privileged white woman of progressive demonology, but a refugee who, in a different context, would automatically elicit progressive protective instincts.
Putting all this together, there is simply no obvious way to make her murder intelligible within American race politics in a way that does not serve Right-wing narratives. It thus appears that those outlets which most zealously oppose such narratives have either not registered it as having occurred, or opted not to report it.
The world is full of stories, and no publication can document them all. But the difficulty today is that all such selection mechanisms now coexist online, in readily searchable form; anyone who so wishes can toggle back and forth between perspectives, and draw their own conclusions about how, and from what ingredients, the sausage of “news” is made. For those who set any stock at all in the need for a polity to inhabit an at least somewhat shared reality, this is not a reassuring picture.
Especially in the age of viral AI slop, no one should celebrate or seek to hasten the disintegration of a shared reality or commitment to truth in the media. Notwithstanding any putative political bias, my sense is that this is well understood across the legacy press, including the progressive side. Such outlets would do well to consider that a reputation for objectivity turns not just on how a story is reported but also if it is — especially where a story challenges comfortable ideological narratives.

 
An objective report of this story would focus both on the identity of the victim, and on the perpetrator. He is Decarlos Brown Jr., a 34 year old man who has a long criminal history, and a history of mental illness, including being previously committed and diagnosed with schizophrenia. Yet, he was riding freely on a light rail train alongside unsuspecting, defenseless passengers. Thus, the real story is how that was possible. I suppose, though, if he had used an assault rifle instead of a knife the majority left wing media outlets would have reported it, as their angle would be "see, another assault rifle killed somebody." As it is, banning people from owning pocket knives is not a winning agenda, and so they figure they have nothing, and mostly ignore the story.

They should also mention that he did not have a ticket to ride the rail system, so he somehow skipped past the ticketing and got in anyway.

They should also mention that he was arrested and released 14 times and has a violent history and he was out on a 'promise to appear' when he committed this act.

They might want to mention that the judges who let him out were all soft on crime Democrats.
 
I have to wonder if Charlotte is going to ever get a republican into office.

It is a one-party area, Democrats in total control for decades.

Will the people wake up?

I did notice that CBS News is actually now covering this story. First network to break the code of silence.

I also noticed that AXIOS, the far left new(ish) website had an article and they were apoplectic over how and why this is just a right wing story and didn't/doesn't deserve attention.
 
It does not matter anymore that the lamestream media does not report this stuff. The Lamestream media is in its final death throes. Cable is dying as well. Most now get their news, as I do, via the internet. I enjoy certain podcasts and listen to them via Android Auto while driving. This was all borne out and became front and center when Trump got 15M views in one day on Joe Rogan. Barron Trump knew this and pushed for it. Smart kid.

The crime is real. Everyone knows it, its just not everyone is willing to admit it. Fuck them, again, the dirt bag Dumbs find themselves on the losing side of a 80/20 issue. Good for them. I wish them nothing but the worst in life.
 
I can't believe the democrats have stooped this low.
On another forum, they are assuring that it's her fault that she had her back to this piece of shit; it's her fault!!! Anybody sorting this needs to have karma hit them tenfold. They make me sick
 
If the Dumbs choose to die on this hill, so be it.

I firmly believe they have given up after getting their asses handed to them and have decided to just double down on their communist beliefs in some deluded effort to solidify their base. Trump is in effect running their party now by making them make decisions solely based on their terminal TDS.

Trump used to just live in their heads rent free. Now he dictates their every move. It is really a marvel to watch. Very entertaining. Lots of podcasts discuss this.

And if this poor woman had actually taken that advice, and there was video of her avoiding sitting near him, or sitting so as to be able to watch him, the Left would have used the video as their proof of the existence of societal racism. Look at this privileged white woman, they would say, suspicious of a man just because he's black.

The Democrats are literally doubling down on stupid.

And by saying "Democrats" I don't mean the official party, but clearly they are doing it, but I mean by actual people who walk among us. The affiliated groups of blue haired Karens, and their beta-male partners. The "AWFULS" (affluent white female urban liberals). The Black Life Matters groups. The socialists and commies groups.

They are actually planning another national "NO KINGS" protest on October 18th of this year. But between now and they they are doubling down on stoopid :smileywac



BLMers Launch GoFundMe For Subway Stabber, Charlotte Mayor Urges Video Censorship

The biggest story in the world over the weekend — on social media, that is; legacy corporate state media ignored it entirely because it’s inconvenient to their narrative — was the unprovoked plunging of a blade into the carotid artery of a 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee by a hulking thug with 14 prior arrests for violent crime to his name.
Unlike the legacy media that refuses to touch rampant and totally disproportionate black-on-white crime on pain of death, Athena Thorne covered the story for PJ Media.
In more recently released audio to accompany the video, the killer can be heard congratulating himself: “I got that white girl.”
Unsurprisingly, but still shocking to the conscience, BLM-esque activists sympathetic not to the victim but to the cold-blooded murderer launched not one but two GoFundMe fundraisers in the immediate aftermath, even though video of the assault is widely available on social media and depicts a pre-meditated and, again, wholly unprovoked attack on an innocent and defenseless woman who appears to have barely weighed 100 pounds.
From the first fundraiser for the killer, now deleted but archived here:
Raising money to assist with legal fees for Decarlos Dejuan Brown JR. anything helps fight against the racism and bias against our people.Thank you for giving us a hand to push against this corrupt narrative
From the second, also deleted but also archived here:
While what happened on the Blue Line was a tragedy what we mustn't lose sight of is the fact that Decarlos Brown JR was failed categorically by the Judicial system and the Mental Health Services of North Carolina and as such is not entirely to blame for what happened.
As it is so, we endeavor to raise funds for his legal defense and hope to avoid punitive sentencing and to also get him the aid he requires.
The “mental health professionals made him do it” line is so stupid that it’s hard to believe the second fundraiser wasn’t satire.
Speaking to the Washington Examiner, the company explained that it had removed the pages and refunded donor money:
GoFundMe’s Terms of Service explicitly prohibit fundraisers that raise money for the legal defense of anyone formally charged with an alleged violent crime. Consistent with this long-standing policy, this fundraiser has been removed from the platform and the donors who contributed to the fundraiser have been fully refunded.
In separate but equal news, diverse Charlotte Mayor Vi praised the city’s “media partners” (why should media be in “partnership” with government?) for refusing to air the footage — out of respect for the victim, obviously:
The video of the heartbreaking attack that took Iryna Zarutska’s life is now public. I want to thank our media partners and community members who have chosen not to repost or share the footage out of respect for Iryna’s family.
The hypocrisy is so glaring that it scarcely needs noting, but not one of these DEI public officials — not one — promoted the censorship of the George Floyd overdose video that sparked a summer of rioting from coast to coast.
One must wonder: why the double standard?
 
The reason George Floyd was a headline was because the police were involved. In the case of Iryna Zarutska's murder,it was via a known criminal psychopath. The hypocrisy continues.

The Democratic party is the same party that took our nation to lethal war over the right to own another human being and enslaved an entire race. I damn near destroyed the Republic.

They are no different today
 
No such thing as a so called moderate Dumbocrat. They are either all in on communism or complicit in their silence to effect change.

In some ways the "moderates" are worse. At least the wackos are telling you how they feel, the so called moderates do not.

Not trying to split hairs here or otherwise be more of a pain in the ass than I usually am, Franc, but there is not a damn thing Democratic about the DumboCrat party. (I refuse to use Democrat as well when referring to the Dumbos. )

I use the proper term because they all, good and bad, deserve to be included in the follies of the Democratic Party. Some of late were smart enough to leave. But the party itself is on a mission of destroying our democracy and in the process have begun their own self destruction.

Since the "Democratic Party," has no message that is digestible to most Americans, they are, hopefully, doomed to extinction. The midterms will tell us all of their fate. Campaigns for 2026 begin soon. So far, they and their message, seem to be headed for disaster.

Yeah, true story there. Stock tip for you, Fracnc. Buy stock in Eli Lilly. I believe that are the pharma for Xanax. :ROFLMAO:
 
The Democratic Party needs to cirlcle their wagons and organize for the next midterm elections. Some are going clockwise and other the opposite direction with bloviating "Karens" frantically holding the reins. The dust cloud created demonstrates their confusion.

Fun to watch yes. But we need to scrutinize the next election very cared fully. The B*stards are clever as hell.
 
GOOD NEWS TO REPORT

Several (right leaning) media sources are now reporting that President Trump directed Attorney General Pam Bondi to file FEDERAL CHARGES against the murderer featured in the some of these stories about about the stabbing of the young Ukrainian refugee on the train in Charlotte.

Not sure about any of you, but this is what I voted for.

We don't even need to send the national guard into every city, we can simply press Federal charges on the murderers and gang bangers and bypass these Soros sympathizers and communist mayors.
 
This is good. But needs to do it with EVERY murder. Everywhere. Onesies and twosies will have no effect.

I agree, but that won't be possible.

The gang bangers are low hanging fruit. So are serial offenders of various crimes. Even the shoplifting thugs are fairly easy if they work in groups. Was arrested so many times that they can find numerous ways to hit him with a federal charge, maybe 10 federal charges.

But one-off murders are not federal crimes. The others, if multiple acts occur, can often be implicated in federal statutes and groups can even get hit with RICO statutes.

If this murder had happened with the races reversed, i.e., a white man stabbed a black woman to death, then the Left would be calling for federal charges on the basis that it was a hate crime. With that in mind, they should charge this man with a federal hate crime, thus giving him a good shot for the death penalty.
