      I'm not familiar with this Sam character and just coming to find him (on here). I seriously doubt that Ben Shapiro or Crowder are running from this guy. I'm willing to bet "Sam" is no match for Crowder, and definitely not for Ben Shapiro. While not that likeable, Shapiro is extremely smart and informed. This guy here is an intellectual lightweight. It's very easy to look like one is "winning" a debate if one doesn't allow the opponent to speak freely. He continually interrupts his flow and never allows AJW to go on a roll....Plus, AJW is not so informed and he's a bit out of his depth...but that the pandemic caused the spike in crime has already been debunked over and over again, and not just by "conservatives". To stand by the idea that "defunding police" and the chaos that ensued following the G. Floyd "peaceful protests" had nothing to do with the spike in crime in most of the large cities in this country is being willfully ignorant and/or lying. Period. Truth is truth and right is right. That is all I'm after: truth.

      It may be because the root causes argument has a lot of holes. Poverty is often asserted as the reason if someone actually concedes that African Americans commit a disproportionate amoint of murder, etc. Yet some were always quick to point out that whites use more welfare and food stamps. There aren't really any poverty stricken white areas, for example, that have the crime rates of Philadelphia, Chicago, etc. There are cultural issues at play.

    • @TapWaterCo
      @TapWaterCo ปีที่แล้ว +85

      Remember that crime is a function of law and enforcement; what laws are passed and how they are enforced. The kinds of crimes impoverished people commit are enforced more than the kinds of crimes wealthy people commit. The laws themselves are also different depending on which class does which crime, see crack cocaine vs power cocaine law enforcement for example. And of course some things that maybe should be or were illegal are legal, like stock buybacks, various tax evasion schemes, usury, landlording etc. A poor person doesn't have the means to navigate or participate in those systems while a wealthy person does, effectively excluding them from any prosecution.

    I've worked retail or service for 40 years. About half of those employers stole my wages at some point. I shouldn't have to sue to recover those wages. It's theft. I should be able to go to the police and report it and then immediately recover those wages and get my employer charged with the crime of theft. Repeat offenders should be removed from society permanently. That should deter my employer from stealing it in the first place, right?

      What a lot of people don’t get is how silent and innocuous this theft is.
      Many of us trust that what is on our check is accurate because that’s the system. We clock in and out and there are payroll people and all kinds of math etc that goes into our checks.
      This is also why it’s so easy for a large company to skim here and there or do creative math on a subtle level so an individual won’t be shocked at a single check but over time and with thousands of employees it adds up to “savings” or “profit” for the company.
      They know that people won’t notice or come after them and if they do they will cut a check and play dumb or at worst pay a fee and do the same again.
      To put it in shoplifting terms if an employer steals a candy bar off of all of its employees - that’s a GRIP of candy bars.
      They don’t empty your pockets - they just work hard skimming them while you are busy MAKING THEM MORE MONEY.

      His point was that focusing on root causes can be fallacious depending on circumstances. You still have to mitigate the symptoms of a problem, for example:
      Imagine you have a heart attack, and you go to a hospital. The doctor says "well you should eat better and exercise" and then you reply with "well yeah, but I'm dying and I need surgery". The root cause might be clear, but it's not very helpful or pragmatic to focus on that when there's an immediate need.

There's also a major issue with teaching. In colorado a lit of teachers quit over the requirements forced on discussing gender with kids. This added with kids having worse homes because everyone became alcoholics during the pandemic, theres a lot of reasons why both fields have understaffing.

So what’s special about the Floyd protests in particular that they had this effect? We’ve had plenty of anti police protests that turned violent throughout history. If we looked at every single one of them, would we always see a corresponding rise in crime and police resignations? And if not, why is this the only one? If it only happened after some of them, that implies that there is not causation. This dude likes numbers, so surely he would be willing to establish whether or not the data actually supports his theory.

      @c.m.6487 ปีที่แล้ว

      Because this is a fundamental flaw in leftist thinking, that to reduce crime we have to solve the root causes. There are HUGE problems with this idea: first, root causes are much more EXPENSIVE to fix than having an effective police force. For example, a lot of research had shown that single parenting is a serious root cause of criminal activity. America has spent BILLIONS of dollars helping single parents, and we still have not fixed the outcomes for their children! The 2nd reason why root causes are not important, is because they can be attributed to FREE WILL. AJW gave a FANTASTIC example of the poor Jewish community in NYC, who commit almost no crime, despite their poverty. Black communities are absolutely poisoned by the rap/gang culture, and there isn't any conceivable way the government could change that. Finally, we have irrefutable proof that crime can be reduced without fixing the root causes by the fact that it massively dropped in the late 90's/early 2000's without any of those "roots" being addressed.

    It took until 1h25m to get to the truth as I know it from criminal justice research. There are a multitude of factors that contribute to crime rates that all work together either to reduce or induce crimes. Poverty, risk of being caught, social stigma, mental illness, feeling of belonging to the society, norms, inequality etc etc. If you let a society get run down, remove good schools, dont provide jobs and counseling, dont have things for kids to do, provide health care etc then crime rates will go up long term.

    "Root causes are not more important than any other cause"
    I'm sorry, there's been a lot of wild claims made by this dude, but I was absolutely floored when he made this admission about his utter lack of comprehension of this topic. If you don't get why, let me use a bit of my learning about getting rid of weeds for you. If you manage to tear the roots of a weed out, without getting the whole weed, it could potentially survive, but can be addressed more easily. Alternatively, if you rip the sprouts off a weed, but leave the root, it keeps growing back. This is a core part of why we refer to things as the root of something, because it is fundamental to the development of something, and because if its not addressed, then the aftereffects cannot be meaningfully addressed either, as they will keep coming back. With humans, root causes of things like criminality can be much harder to find and address, as we are complicated creatures, however that does not change the fact that our roots do the same thing, and therefore finding, understanding, and addressing root causes, is the most important thing long term. The only way a person could defend a devaluing of the importance of root causes, is if their goal is not actually a long term solution, and it is seen as acceptable to just attempt to force the circular peg of short term solutions, into the square hole of long term problems, like prevention.
    I am sure AJW learned something in his education, but he clearly missed a lot of info too if he can't even grasp this basic concept of prevention.

Hasn't the entire country been fully open for at least the last 1.5+ years as of the date of this video? Why deny reality? What does that solve? Just this week, 2 NYPD officers were beaten by a group of individuals in Times Square. Several of the perpetrators were arrested and promptly set free rather than being detained until trial based on a decision by the DA's office to not seek bail. Several news outlets have documented that some of these individuals have already fled the city and are unlikely to stand trial. Do you not see the correlation to bail reform?

    Norway’s focus on rehabilitation and restorative justice is certainly radical, but there is no doubt that it has had a positive impact on the country’s crime rate and its economy.
    The most profound benefit: Norway has one of the lowest recidivism rates in the world. Only 20% of Norway’s formerly incarcerated population commit another crime within two years of release. Even after five years, the recidivism rate is only 25%. In addition, the number of incarcerated individuals has been trending down in the past several years.
    Low recidivism isn’t the only benefit. Norway’s rehabilitative approach also benefits the country’s economy. Fewer people in prison means that there are more capable adults available for employment. In fact, many prisoners leave prison with additional skills. The Norway prison system focuses not only on emotional and moral rehabilitation, but also on job skills. That’s one reason why prisoners who were unemployed before prison see a 40% increase in employment rates after prison.
    Impact on Norway’s Recidivism Rate
    Before Norway’s prison reforms in the 1990s, the country had a recidivism rate in the range of 60% - 70%. Today, Norway’s recidivism rate based on re-conviction within two years is 20%, the lowest rate in the world.
    The rehabilitative aspect of Norway’s prison system is credited as a primary factor in the low recidivism rate. Another contributing factor is that Norway seeks to maintain prisoners’ humanity during their time in incarceration.

Prisoners are also disproportionately likely to have grown up in socially isolated and segregated neighborhoods with high rates of child poverty and in predominantly African-American or American Indian neighborhoods.”
      One ZIP code in Nashville, Tennessee - 37208, one of the poorest areas in the country and 93 percent African-American - has a staggering incarceration rate of 14 percent. The study reported that the highest rates of incarceration “are concentrated in urban centers and certain rural areas, like American Indian reservations,” whereas in other, more prosperous neighborhoods the crime rate is “essentially zero.”

    I’m only about 17 minutes in, but within 2 minutes he glossed over the fact during the current spike, that there were 10x less murders overall compared to 9/11 ALONE.
    He’s claiming crime is up 30% compared to the second highest of 20% “including 3,000 people dying in NYC in one day”. Meaning if 9/11 were the ONLY murders of 2001, in 2000 there were at least 2500 murders. But during this “current spike” it went from 312 to 489. That means that at the murder rate was 10x lower now than during the previous spike if you discount 364 days of murders occurring. And with a much higher population now than there was back then.
    Second, he also fails to mention that the BLM riots happened to coincide with the lockdowns loosening up. There will obviously be a huge spike in crime when things open up again because during the lockdowns, there were less crimes available for criminals to commit.

      no your mixing up nationwide stats and NYC stats, and homicide rate which is per capita and number of homicides which is not. Nationwide the murder rate went up 29% from 2019 to 2020. And it only went up 20% from 2000 to 2001 and that included 9/11. So if you took out 9/11 then the murder rate increase from 2000 to 2001 would be around the 10% range. Making the recent spike look much worse. The 319 to 468 is just the murders in NYC from 2019 to 2020. It hit its peak in 2021 at 488. And its back down to 438 in 2022. So people are trying to claim that crime is down, but Seans point is that its down a little from the previous year but its still up drastically since 2019. Also the summer of love was summer of 2020. We didnt start loosening up until early 2021 and that was primarily in red states.

      The question you need to answer is why is crime still up from 2019? Are people still committing crimes because they weren't allowed to do enough of them during the pandemic? Are they still just making up for lost time several years later? If the theory is that the pandemic caused the extra crimes why did they not fall off after people stopped isolating themselves for the pandemic? Yes, they've modestly reduced, but they haven't returned to anything approximating pre-pandemic levels.

    If police officers are retiring early because they are worried about prosecution. I think that would most likely be a good thing. Probably not the type of cops you want on the force anyway. And probably have something to hide.
