I think one solution though will be to legalize drugs for 18+ as is with smoking. If dangerous things such as smoking, alcohol, and chemical ridden food are legal then by making the other things legal, let a person ruin their own body if they want. If this is done then thugs/gangs/etc won't have drug money, won't have drug 'territory' to defend, no drug deals gone bad, etc.

Racial Bias in Policing
by Coded Logic inthe us justice department just released findings from their investigation of the baltimore police department.
as 40% of the force is comprised of black officers some thought they'd be "immune" to racial bias.
it turns out black cops can be just as racist - if not more racist - against black people than white cops.

Community policing? - If they won't tell cops any information when a person or even child is murdered, how will you get that going? Not going to happen unless the good people within that community decide to fight back against the thugs and criminals among them.

Warning: Watchtower computer dept. registers accounts on Ex-JW sites, coerces people to divulge their personal details
by WTS Archive inwe had a bad experience with watchtower trying to infiltrate our forums.
let this story be a warning for all you guys here.
if you value your privacy do not ever send your real contact details to anyone, even if you trust them (because their accounts could be hacked or accessed by their relatives - and yes, this happened to people i know several times already).

O btw if you did get a call, deny knowing what they are talking about, and ask why the accuser was on an apostate website and communicating with apostates :)

Example 'new style' Kingdom Hall with windows
The only reason they have windows is because they are designed to eventually be resold as a fast food joint or small commerical property. They figure they'll make a lot of money by not building anything that a sincere God believer would for his house of worship, but instead as an investment where people build free commerical properties for them to sell when they appreciate in value.

I would also point out that no Muslim refugee coming to the US has ever been involved in a domestic terrorist attack.
That's only because the Feds thankfully caught them before they could carry out such attacks. Here is a very recent one. So use arrests instead of attacks. Or do you want to wait until a big attack to admit there is a problem and risk?
http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/07/us/terror-charges-refugees/
"The arrests in Sacramento, California, and Houston did not appear to be directly related, but the cases had several similarities.
Both men were Palestinians born in Iraq and living as refugees in the United States, according to the U.S. Justice Department. And both of them are accused of lying to immigration officials about their alleged ties to terrorist organizations.
Omar Faraj Saeed Al Hardan, 24, of Houston, is charged with attempting to provide material support to ISIS."

I just checked out the Gross national happiness ranking of Sweden, and they don't seem to think they are falling apart.
Obviously you have no idea how Sweden went from a relatively crime free country to the 2nd worst in the entire world for rape rates in a few short years. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3317978/Torn-apart-open-door-migrants-Sweden-seen-Europe-s-liberal-nation-violent-crime-soaring-Far-Right-march-reports-SUE-REID.html Or about the no go zones, 60 minutes tried to do a report there and you can see in your own eyes the police didn't want to go in, the crew get hit by a car and attacked after in a few minutes.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCsEqKjP9p0. You also obviously don't know about the laws passed censoring any criticism of the immigration policy and immigrants even though crime, rape, etc are skyrocketing there. That happiness ranking was probably a number pulled out of someones hinney.

Baltimore police have pulled back. No more stop and frisks, etc. It's racist for them to do their job. It's racist to accept reality. So let's see the results. Murders are doubling, and Baltimore is surging past Detroit for murders. https://www.baltimorebrew.com/2015/08/07/baltimore-surges-past-detroit-in-number-of-homicides-in-2015/ becoming the second most violent city in America. But it's okay, all the innocent children and hundreds of extra murders are worth it because now they can be politically correct and pretend that crime is equal among all groups in the USA and stop doing their job as soon as the number of blacks go past their population percentage of crime vs white in the USA so nobody can accuse them of being racist.

Yeah, but that's not an actual thing. It's mostly a racist perception. So it's up to black people to fix the racist perception against them?
Let's see if Viviane answers this. Challenged another to post stats and math. The above response of hers is on the claim of a highly disproportionate number of robberys, shootings, and street violence being done by young black men is a racist perception.
Here is the 2014 FBI crime statistics showing arrests by race and for what crime.
Blacks make up under 20% of USA population.
So Vivivane, using these factual statistics, point out what is a perception vs a fact.
8,230 murder arrests, 3807 white and 4,224 black. Even with the no snitch culture, still more blacks who murdered were arrested than whites despite only making up a small percentage of the population. This is amazing, do you recall the ft myers mass shooting recently where children as young as 12/13 were shot? The perpetrators still at large because the witnesses don't want to be a 'snitch' and the others have withdrawn their complaints. http://www.news-press.com/story/news/2016/05/02/complaint-withdrawals-frustrate-lee-law-enforcement/82895644/ In 2014 there were 6095 black murder victims, despite under 20% of population the number was more than 50% https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2014/crime-in-the-u.s.-2014/tables/expanded-homicide-data/expanded_homicide_data_table_1_murder_victims_by_race_ethnicity_and_sex_2014.xls
Robbery arrests, 41,000 for blacks and 30,000 for whites. I guess even though under 20% of the population, a big disproportionate arrested for robbery is also a racist perception that is untrue?
But it's not ALL crimes, just the violent ones like murder, robbery, etc. Vehicle theft, Fraud, etc, whites are doing their fair share. For drunk driving blacks are even below average.
So using math and statistics, please elaborate your comment on how these are racist perceptions and not "an actual thing".

Blacks engage in crimes out of proportion to the rest of the general population simply because of poverty. Poverty breeds crime and you would have the same pattern in impoverished white communities.
Absolutely false. Show me a single poor white neighborhood that has the same killings and crime. I've also traveled the world, one of the poorest places I visited was Cairo. People living in extreme poverty, less than $2 a day, but thievery, robbery, murders, etc, not happening at all. The root cause is the CULTURE. The black inner city black culture worships the gangsta lifestyle, the culture shuns education and any actions to improve ones place in life are labeled "acting white", no family structure, etc. If it was simply poverty then there would be identical murders/gangs/crime all over the world for those in equal poverty.
Ukraine is another example. Extremely poor. But not really a problem with crime, murders, etc at all. No areas that don't feel safe. It was real poor that several generations of families lived in small apartments and everybody worked or were creative to survive on the limited resources they had without going to crime. They don't have benefits like food stamps, etc. Costa Rica is another culture very different. Tons of very poor, and crime is very high, but not murder. Thievery is very high. But San Jose is nothing like Chicago, detroit, Baltimore, etc, with tons of shootings and killings every week. The only variance in all these cases is skin color and culture.

Got my JC cancelled... (at least for now)
by Sanchy inso my wife and i have been in the process of fading for a few months now as per my original post here.
about a week ago, i was browsing some ex-jw facebook groups when i saw a post that linked to the crisis of conscience book.
i said "f@(k it" and hit share on it.. a few hours later, i get a long text letter from my mom (who was a fb friend of mine) telling me the typical "good luck finding friends in the world" and how we have "nothing in common anymore"; basically, it was a 'farewell' text.
