Internet tough guys are not impressive.
Neither are the people who find senseless violence too mundane and boring to even comment about.
For the vast majority of cases someone who hits someone does not get a jail sentence. We can't afford it. A fine and maybe community service.
So you have the statistics to back that up...right?
In your sick world people can randomly assault others with little to no consequences. Your world is fucked up.
Is a couple days in jail really a punishment for someone homeless? A nice bed and regular meals for a few days?
Is fining someone with no money really a punishment?
Community service by the way is a joke. What if someone doesn't feel like picking up cigarette butts? What are ya' going to do? Give him more community service?
Many homeless are mentally ill. You want to pay up to build places to get them treatment?
I don't have a solution for LA. Neither do you. They are too far gone and apparently don't give a ****!
They will only start to care when the tourists stop coming to town.
