Los Angeles, CA— Public transportation in Los Angeles has been plagued by a surge of violent crimes. The current law enforcement policies, influenced by one-party Democrat rule, lean heavily towards leniency, a result of far radical left-wing ideologies.
In recent years, suspects arrested for crimes are often released with just a citation and a promise to appear in court. The cash bail system has been largely abolished for many offenses. The COVID-19 pandemic served as a pretext to grant early release to over 100,000 convicts. The consequences of these policies are dire, and lives are at stake.
Criminals have taken advantage of public transportation systems like subways and buses, where unarmed and vulnerable citizens commute daily. Simply increasing the number of uniformed officers on public transit has proven ineffective; criminals adapt by avoiding illegal activities in the presence of law enforcement.
What has been effective is deploying undercover officers who can act as decoys to attract violent criminals. Unfortunately, in an urban area like Los Angeles, the majority of these criminals are from minority communities. This isn't about race but rather the violent and destructive behaviors within certain cultural segments.
Undercover officers often have to resort to deadly force to protect themselves and others from sudden attacks. These necessary and justified actions result in violent criminals being permanently neutralized.
Reflecting on my days as a Chicago police officer, the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) once had a plainclothes police force of 200 officers. Compared to the 14,000-strong uniformed Chicago Police Department, the CTA police were more effective in combating crime. They ended up killing many more criminals than the entire Chicago Police Department, most of whom were black. This didn't look good statistically, leading politicians to mandate that CTA officers wear uniforms. This change, supplemented by uniformed Chicago Police officers, led to a dramatic increase in crime on public transportation and a significant drop in the number of criminals neutralized. Meanwhile, the number of innocent victims rose sharply.
The reality is that putting a uniformed officer on every bus and train car is financially unfeasible. Additionally, police radios often don't work in subways, hindering officers' ability to call for backup.
Politicians know that allowing law-abiding citizens to exercise their Second Amendment rights could potentially reduce violence, as criminals would fear encountering armed passengers. However, this solution is vigorously rejected by these Democrats.
Rehabilitation of criminals remains a myth. The only reliable deterrent is age; young, aggressive criminals need to be incarcerated until they are no longer a threat. Politicians understand that certain communities have higher crime rates, which explains their overrepresentation in prisons. Despite this, these lame politicians prefer solutions that simply don’t work.
In conclusion, to ensure your safety, it might be best to avoid public transportation in large urban areas governed by radical policies. If you must commute on public transportation only do it with a gun and proper training. Black Criminals' Lives Matter more than yours.
