With an active interest in policing, gangs, homicide, corrections, and even dept admin, the conversation with @ASUCrimJustice and longtime @UMSL_CCJ professor @DeckerCrime by former student and now gang-guru in his very own right, @dpyrooz, covers it all. Check out our latest addition to the OHCP archive. Scott Decker crimrxiv.com/pub/fc1v0y75

This is a must read @VitalCityNYC article by Anthony Braga. Addressing injustice is vital, but failing to support a mountain of research on how to address violent crime is also malign neglect.
The U.S. Surgeon General’s first advisory that named gun violence a public health crisis omits key research and ignores the role of criminal justice in tackling the problem, Anthony A. Braga argues in his latest for Vital City. vitalcitynyc.org/articles/gu…

As the topic of crime trends, immigrants, and public safety heats up during the election cycle, we should follow the data and not feelings. My new op-ed in @thehill | thehill.com/opinion/immigrat…

The list of gaps in Georgia’s gun laws is long. Perhaps most relevant to school shootings is child access prevention laws requiring gun owners to lock guns away from underage youth. Safe gun storage is smart way to prevent any shooting by juveniles regardless of laws.
Gun laws in Georgia: No state permit required to purchase. No firearm registration. No assault weapon law. No magazine capacity restriction. No owner license required. No permit required for concealed carry. No permit required for open carry. No background check required for private sales. The parents and children of Georgia deserve better from their political leaders.

This woman, who comes from a family of combat veterans, is angry at the Gold Star families who invited the loathsome piece of shit to Arlington National Cemetery — and she has a point. 🙌🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

In 2020, there was the largest one-year increase in homicide since 1960. This year, the US is experiencing the largest decrease. What's driving the spike and the decline? Gun crime. Here's a graphic of non-gun homicide to make that point.

Replying to @PeterMoskos
And now there’s a renewed effort to cancel the Vollmer award. But those two are certainly prizes to have in one’s collection
