never any mention that:
1. Giving more free shit (lockers, tiny houses, food, shelter, bus passes) to transients attracts more transients 
2. Telling illegals that your safe from ICE here will attract the south-of-border gangs (obv most all illegals are good people)
3. Constants attempts and successes to make gun ownership and the right to kill harder reduces the worry criminals have committing crimes. 
4. Increasing the burden of hiring people (minimum wages, regulations, fees, taxes) causes businesses to leave more people without legal jobs turns people to crime. 

If you are going to take the policies listed above, then own the problem, argue that the gains are worth the increase in crime. But no, I never hear people argue that, I only hear "we need more money, more of your taxes, more fees, and only then can we solve the problem."

Really annoying...
