And you don' t find it ironic that Boxer helped write the policies that shaped their society and raised her muggers?
What has lead to more crime over the past 40 years has been the GOP mantra of "fuck you I got mine". Boxer wasn't writing laws to make it easier for what happened to her to happen to her.
The long term trend has been an exploding pay gap. Of course you are going to see an increase in crime if all you do is say fuck the middle class and poor. But for you to stupidly claim that she was the cause of that long term trend is absurd. The GOP on average even in blue states has had the advantage of state houses and Governorships ON AVERAGE over that 40 year period.
You do understand that city government budgets are still ultimately controlled by state's congress . And that is not taking into account the average balance of power in federal government. Sure, Democrats have won the Presidency more over the past 40 years, but between the House and Senate and Supreme Court, the GOP has controlled that more often than not. And the GOP has had far more control over Governorships and state congresses over that same period.
Boxer is not to blame for her own mugging. For you to imply such is sick.
