Leftist states like Oregon sympathize with criminals as misunderstood, downtrodden, picked upon, poor little dears...until one day they get robbed, mugged, burglarized by a gang member/members.

Then they start to understand that maybe Conservatives are onto something...

What a joke. Considering the stats in the article, I'm stunned even the left would want to do this- it even referenced using the data to help members leave gangs and get jobs. Oh yeah, jobs- that might make the POTUS look better. ...lol

Liberals are like the Ostrich! Stick your head in the sand and pretend a problem does not exist and it will go away.

Remember the Liberal mantra of today, my way or the violent way! Thank you Maxine Waters.
Annoy a Liberal, GET A JOB!

Gangs have a LOT of money. Bribes are an old criminal tactic. What are the odds that no one in any gang thought about, or are actually, bribing officials to make life easier for the gang(s)? Look at the corruption in places like Mexico, where the cartels regularly buy officials. Seriously, does anyone think that can't, or doesn't, happen here in the USA? Especially when billions of dollars are at stake?
