Modern liberalism has created an entitlement mentality wolf. People who believe that they are entitled to something that they wprled for and aren't going to get because they won't work for it go about taking without regard because they believe they are owed. The entitlement mentality is the root cause of a great deal of the crime we see today wolf and modern liberalism is responsible for the entitlement mentality.
To address the entlement mentality, you must remove the feeling of entitlement and you do that by stressing personal responsibility for one's circumstances. You aren't about personal responsibility wolf, you are about avoiding personal responsibility and encouraging the entitlement mentality which in turn is responsible for most of the problems we face in this country today. You, and people like you aren't part of the solution wolf, you are part of the problem.

its not productive to just make people stop doing something. they never understand why its wrong and you never understand why they do it. and it also does nothing for prevention.
I disagree. I think the more compassionate we are the less crime we will have. when you have a cops V public mentality, and the feeling that no one cares you are more likely to committ crime and more likely to ignore/enable crime.
I have no said anything against personal responcibilty. when it comes to crime I don't ignore the fact that people's circumstances influence their lives. you can't just look at things from one angel and expect to create good programs based on your findings, pale.
we also had less crime because we had more unity during certain times in our nation history. not to mention in other parts of the world. countries with a more humane, kind, and caring outlook have far less crime than we do.
we have a mean, cruel mentality and wonder why our society is so violent.
