Words To Live By – Law Enforcement and Crime
Manage episode 428042669 series 3549308
Today, we’ll listen to a radio address delivered 40 years ago on law enforcement and crime - certainly a hot topic in our major cities where cutbacks in law enforcement and weak sentencing are suspected causes of an increased crime rate. So, take a guess: what state has the lowest violent crime rate? That would be New Hampshire. And the highest? In the United States, New Mexico is the most dangerous state, with a higher rate of violent crimes per capita than any other location. Arkansas is a close second with California coming in as the 5th most dangerous state in the union. So let’s hear from Ronald Reagan on crime, beginning with his thoughts in 1984 and then closing, in the second half of the podcast, with a very direct radio broadcast he delivered 8 years before.
