Look at all the southern “tough on crime” states, they all have the highest crime rates in the country.
This has been studied to death, stricter punishment does not lower crime rates.

Oh shit, Fox News brain rot has set in.
Why look at Chicago? Its not even in the top 40 when it comes to crime rate by city.
Why isn’t Alabama being “tough on crime” stopping all the crime in Mobile, which is at the top of that list?
