    What are you talking about? We’ve seen petty theft become decriminalized in certain cities and theft has skyrocketed. Just because most people wouldn’t steal doesn’t mean no one does.

    You don’t know anything.

      You’re comparing petty theft to murder

      One of these crimes has a word in it that quite literally means insignificant in it, do you not see how they’re nowhere near comparable?

        I’m saying that people murder even when there are laws in place that criminalize it. You think LESS people will murder, not more, if it’s decriminalized?
