  1. "data out of kentucky"
    Kentucky isnt NYC
    Letting violent criminals loose in NYC did indeed contribute to crime

  2. – The criminal drives into the Christmas parade. Kills many people.
    – That's one incident. That's not data….
    Next in the news. 99% of the people don't commit crimes. Abandon criminal justice system.

  3. I have got a speeding ticket for 6 miles over the speeding limit by the time it was over with court cost and the ticket I owed over $1000 in fines. These cops sit on the side of the road when everyone is trying to go to work in the morning pulling people over because they know they at least have some means to pay the fines is just sickening

  4. My county charges you each day you are in jail and you have to pay regardless if you are guilty or not.

  5. And once in the system try calling home. Cost your people a fortune. They sell you food because they have skimped on that too. Prison is for profit private & state

  6. Welcome to America. The greatest place in the world to live…. Ya, right. Maybe in the '40s and '50s. Not now.

  7. A little tardy to listen to and comment on this interview/discussion, given that it is now Dec. 26th, but it's an excellent episode. I expected to hear something about the US PIC, Prison Industrial Complex, in this and Tony mentioned one example, though without using this expression. It's when he spoke of the for-profit business that's involved and consequentially causes minor, petty offenders to remain imprisoned prior to their trials, given that they're unable to afford to pay bails and fines.

  8. The problem is the people who watch this and still maintain, If you do the crime, you do the time. Knowing that the crime is being poor. Even Kim Iversen does this when denying racism to please her right wing audience

  9. This has been happing to the black community and poor people for as long as all of us have been alive.

  10. 14th Amendment was Reconstruction's middle finger to the Emancipation Proclamation. If you elect crypto-fascists and neoliberals, then you get this injustice. Now Republicans want to help King George destroy American voting rights. It's almost like everything conservatives want is anti-freedom and autocratic authoritarianism. Duh.

  11. Aaaa

    You better look into your crypto patrons and what they’re making you exclude because it’s despicable behavior on your part and theirs… no, wreeeaaalllyyy— you really need to look into your crypto patrons.😒😬🙄

    You aren’t the left, you’re the the center-right at best if that “left”, you colonizer in your ridiculous colonizer habitus with your putrid colonizer doxa. This is 100% miserable centrist-right bourgeois colonialist exclusionary detailed redliner context framed and narrated virtue signaling for redliner colonialists in their redlined beneficiary bourgeois suburban homes to maintain their redliner petty bourgeoisie false consciousness – that’s the despicable reality because the dispossession has always been structural, even the PPP & the other pogroms of accumulation by dispossession granted impunity to by Obalk O’bourgeois aka baroque candelabra aka the undisputed butcher of Honduras and more. Because nothing is more axiomatic under settler colonialism, than impunity being granted to the settler criminal by the settler.🙄😒
    If it weren’t for these so-called progressive, so-called “leftist” shows (They detail with massive exclusion under settler colonialism so they can be nothing but centrist or right 😒) we would be hearing about the fascist rentier US hegemony but they exclude with detail around that and why that is the source of their inter-generational wealth and everyone else’s misery. But that is not the only thing they are gross liars of ommission centrists because of. Oh no that is not the only reason they are shameful liars to call themselves “left”.
    It’s malpractice, deceitful and deceptive and nauseating and malfeasance for you to call yourself the “left”, because you’re not even the center, you are the right because of your exclusionary detailing and other deceit and deception and reprehensible behavior so get a clue colonizer!
    FYI— The corrupt entirely racist subordinated corrupted colonizer Democrats are going to scuttle anything anybody does other than their owners. You don’t get to pretend that isn’t the case. That’s part of your crimes of exclusionary detailing, just one part of your colonizer context from your colonizer habitus with your colonizer doxa which instantiates the insufferable untenable colonizer nomos.

    There is nothing more common under this despicable unnecessary settler colonialist Racialized hierarchy than colonizers suffering menticide Installed in them by the fascist settler colonialist haute bourgeoisie… you absolutely know this because you rub elbows with these redlining colonizers – Redliner context framed and narrated virtue signaling for redliners in their redlined beneficiary suburban homes to maintain their redliner petty bourgeoisie false consciousness – that’s the despicable reality because the dispossession has always been structural, even the PPP & the other pogroms of accumulation by dispossession granted impunity to by Obalk O’bourgeois aka baroque candelabra aka the undisputed butcher of Honduras and more. Because nothing is more axiomatic under settler colonialism, than impunity being granted to the settler criminal by the settler.🙄😒

    The Iroquois called George Washington “town destroyer” because of all of the pogroms of genocide he and his “white” people committed personally against the indigenous people, including women and children, to steal their land and it was commodified and privatized genocide by he, Jefferson, Hamilton (all of them) the Virginia company and more. George Washington was such a miserable horrific racist anti-indigenous genocide committing genocide leader, that he wiped out the Seneca Indians, dozens of Indian villages and most Indians will curse his name forever. No matter how much they’ve convinced you he’s a “founding father”, it doesn’t take away the fact that he was a horrible anti-indigenous genocide committer. It’s a horrible fact of this “country” and it’s because it’s a despicable genocide colony. You don’t get to front with your colonizer “context” because you know what this place is and you know why it’s acting the way it does… and you’re trying to commodify its crimes against humanity ongoing with this video.

  12. Because of the economic crisis and the rate of unemployment, now is the best time to invest and make money 💯, Christmas🎄 is already here Bitcoin will pump to $100k very soon.

  13. But Americans are happy with this system by electing people who keeps these things in place or even enhance them and all this in place based on stereotypes

  14. As a supervisor for a sheriff's department I saw this all the time . I got convicts from overcrowded jails to work on public properties . They had fines to pay yet had to work for free forty hours a week for me . Most had families and obligations with no way to keep them . They were in a hamster wheel .

  15. They let assaults go free in NYC but shoot a protester tresspassing the capital. Backwards morallity, selective justice, partisan rights.

  16. I have NEVER been able to get a hearing about my ability to ever pay fines. I have lost my driver's license, my child, my vehicle, my career etc. And it's all for traffic tickets that I couldn't afford to pay. Part of it is on me for not taking care of them whenever it happened. But there should be a fairly simple process in place to verify the indigent…

  17. Most of our systems are based on punishing the people instead of helping them. this is due to the fake concept the survival of the fittest.
