People are tired of getting the catalytic converters stolen from their cars; tired of having to ask an employee to unlock a case every time you want to buy something because shoplifting has gotten so bad; tired of road rage and rising murder rates and people acting crazy on planes.
Who sympathizes with someone who steals designer handbags? You can't eat a designer handbag.
Who sympathizes with someone who engages in petty crime instead of getting a proper job when unemployment is so low that anyone who wants a job can have a job?
Who sympathizes with people like the subway shooter?
As far as I'm concerned, anyone who commits a violent crime should be locked up for life. Get the garbage out of society.
You can support criminal justice reform measures without sympathizing with violent criminals......
