A massive crime wave started in the 1960s and raged until the early 1990s when a general consensus among politicians was that there needed to be tougher sentencing on criminal. It worked. Crime rates fell across the board for the next 20 years.

Every once in a while some guy remembers mass incarceration was a thing than revives it. Diff between that and say the 1800s and the pre mid 20th century is just a matter of scale.

It didn't anon. Rates were dropping prior to mass incarceration bit now with prisons being filled up led to costs skyrocketing and many prisons being outsourced or severely underfunded.

Northern Democrats have been nigger kissing libtards since the 70's, Northern democrat political machines are based on political patronage and have been for 200 years, that is, behaving like a mob that "pays off" voters. That's why democrats to this day do everything in their power to ignore black crime, because they're their voters
--- 14891774
>>14891750
All crime waves are linked to gang activity. Blacks flooded the inner cities and all the women went on welfare, the jobs all left so what do al the black men do? Blacks don't actually create jobs so they prey on each other, selling heroin and crack and killing each other for the right to do that

Not really. They have thrown many grouos including blacks under the bus for years.

Completely false because some if the hardest crackdowns or promises on being tough on crime cane from Democrats too. Democrats also have kneecapped welfare just like they republican counterparts too.

Everyone knows welfare only really benefits brown people, it's obvious.once you realize that and realize how even subconsciously people acknowledge this you can understand why at one point the Democrat party tried to appeal to white people by claiming they wanted lower the benefits. It's all politics, most people arent aware that democrat literally pay brown people to vote for them and consciously do so

Because other non-whites could now access it since historically they could not and had to rely on charities as whites in most areas gained access to state/fed assistance. The flat number on welfare is still high and that's not counting the people who only earn just enough to be ineligible OR those who keep fluctuating around the line.

It began in the 70s actually. Legislators and prosecutors started taking discretion in sentencing away from judges. Then judges realized they were allowed to impose the maximum sentence possible if a defendant simply chose to go to trial and not plead guilty.
>>14891733
It didn't. Crime rates in the US fell roughly in the same proportion they did in other countries at the same time.
--- 14893285

Americans have an almost sexual obsession with police and incarceration. Americans are a hypocritical nation of golems who try to claim they’re the center of the “free world” yet are also the prison capital of the world. Americans push for stronger policing, longer sentences, and strict legalism. Americans cheer on overzealous prosecutors. Americans write out disturbingly-detailed fantasies of how they hope criminals are raped by black men in prison, likely due to their mass sexual attraction to black men.

America is a nation of slaves with a sexual fetish for authority and blacks.
--- 14893327
>>14893322
The good news is that there's been a bit of a backlash against this in the scholarly/legal world and general public. People are realizing how unusual and overzealous practices like mandatory minimums, cash bail, and three strikes laws are.

There's one big factor and a bunch of minor contributing factors.

The big factor hands down is the 1994 Clinton crime bill and mandatory minimum sentencing. That is one of the worst fucking pieces of legislation ever to pass the President's desk.

Other contributing factors include Nixon's War on Drugs that preceded the crime bill, RICO and the government crackdown on organized crime and gangs, the prevalence of lead poisoning especially in urban areas stemming from the use of leaded gasoline which led to a measurable uptick in violence, and the overall culture of the judicial system and backlog and insufficient resources for criminal defense, which all incentivize the prosecution to throw the book at you for every little offense, and most (poor and melanin-enriched) defendants to just take a plea deal and go to jail regardless of guilt.

I think one jurisdiction in Alaska or something tried cracking down on coerced plea bargains and instead of the court system collapsing prosecutors just picked the most important cases to prioritize and police knew they had to be thorough and by-the-book when gathering evidence.

White people started moving out of the cities to suburbs taking all the jobs and wealth with them. The blacks who remained started getting involved with gangs and drug trafficking as it was the only way to make money in the inner cities. Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan were scared of black people and they’re voting power so they started making drug dealing a serious crime to go after black people.

Hired like 100k+ police officers, expanded the potential application of the federal death penalty, cracked down on some kinds of firearms and gang offenses. IIRC it also expanded the federal prison system and funded the expansion of state prison systems. It also incentivized three-strikes laws and mandatory longer periods of no parole, euphemistically called "truth in sentencing."

You say that yet policing before during and after welfare targetted Black men such as arbitrary detention. Even with dads, families would still be EXACTLY as poor as they were sans dad and still suffer form poverty. You can't even say "welfare reform" because prior to Blacks beingm able to access welfare they were pretty much barred from welfare that most whites could access and had to rely on charities or Northern organizations.

State and federal justice systems aren't as harsh as they were 40 years ago but they still are stricter than they were in the 50s to early 70s period. Mandatory minimums, three strikes laws, coerced plea bargains, and disproportionately long sentences are still common practice.

The more opportunities a child has to interact with his or her biological father, the less likely he or she is to commit a crime or have contact with the juvenile justice system (Coley and Medeiros, 2007). In a study of female inmates, more than half came from a father-absent home (Snell, Tracy, & Morton, 1991). Youths who never had a father living with them have the highest incarceration rates (Hill, O’Neill, 1993), while youths in father-only households display no difference in the rate of incarceration from that of children coming from two-parent households (Harper and McLanahan, 2004). In addition, children who come from father-absent homes are at a greater risk for using illicit substances at a younger age (Bronte-Tinkew, Jacinta, Moore, Capps, & Zaff, 2004). The absence of a father in a child’s life may also increase the odds of his or her associating with delinquent peers (Steinberg, 1987).
