I watched the State of the Union Address earlier tonight.
While he did mention international terrorism and the wars, Bush did not even mention the domestic violent crime problem.
He leads the country into a needless war in Iraq that will cost trillions of dollars and has made us less safe. But he does not even mention the prevalence of violent crime at home.
Each year, 23 million acts of criminal victimization occur in the United States. It makes me angry that a man who calls himself President would not mention those in a so-called State of the Union Address.
Over 100,000 rapes take place in the United States each year. I would have made that one of the first talking points, but Bush did not even mention anything of the sort.
Like I said in my previous post, politicians ignore violent crime.
What do you think?
