Louisville Police Merit Board upholds firing of Joshua Jaynes for lying in Breonna Taylor warrant

Liberal Perception

---The gangs aren't real gangs. Just angry teens acting out because of systemic racism, a lack of summer youth programs and guns not being banned.

---Criminals would take $15 per hour jobs if they were available

---The community is doing their part to prevent crime.

---Police stopping ex-felons and juveniles routinely are doing so because they're racist.

Urban Reality

---Louisville has over 2 dozen well organized street gangs affiliated with national gangs based in other large cities. LPD Gang Squad data was given to the media shortly after it was disbanded listing them all. The leader of Louisville's No More Red Dots group took a Leo Magazine reporter on a gangland tour of Louisville to explain it for an article a few years ago.

---2 opposing Mexican cartels claim Louisville as part of their drug turf and move drugs into the hands of Louisville street gang drug dealers every week. DEA agents in other large cities were interviewed for a full page story regarding Louisville's ties to cartel activity in California and Texas.

---Street gang drug dealing criminals make thousands of dollars in untaxed money every week aren't interested in a $15 per hour job until after they spend a while in prison (maybe not then either)

---A large part of the community has proven themselves incapable of raising their own children. They let 13 and 14 year olds run the streets late at night with criminals. They refuse to cooperate with police, even when there's a teenager laying dead in the parking lot outside their home. They live according to the criminal code of silence and think crime is normal, because many of them were criminals themselves once.

---Back when LPD was circling blocks and patting down known criminals routinely, even as some cried "racist", the homicide rate was a small fraction of what it is today. Criminals were a lot more afraid of getting caught with a stolen gun, so they didn't carry as often. Ending Stop and Frisk may make some people feel better about themselves "stopping racism" but in reality they have the blood of all those additional dead black homicide victims on their hands. Dead because of virtue signalling lawyers and activists who live in in the rich white part of town or another county convincing weak politicians to "just let the blacks kill each other" like the big cities do.
