Sheila Jackson Lee loses Houston mayor’s race to Texas state senator

[Bum]

Texas state Sen. John Whitmire defeated Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee on Saturday night to win the Houston mayor’s race in a battle between two Democrats where rising crime played a central role in the election.
Whitmire, endorsed by the local police union, significantly outspent Jackson Lee in the runoff election to lead America’s fourth most populous city. He vowed to fight crime and make the violence-wary city safer.
“What we have to do is hold violent offenders accountable, help the nonviolent offenders turn their lives around. I have a very clear record of being tough and smart on crime,” Whitmire said.

Jackson Lee lost despite endorsements from liberal luminaries like Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi and was hurt by a controversy over a leaked tape showing her berating a staffer.

Whitmire is a good choice... Time for Lee to move on...

Houston made the correct choice.

The crime rate in Houston decreased from 2021 to 2022. It continues to trend down in 2023.

When you don't arrest and don't charge the crime rate on paper goes down. Ask the mayors and DAs of any Marxist-run city such as LA and San Francisco.

Too bad, eh? She is black and female and checks all the right libral boxes (mean, corrupt, evil) and now she won't be able to go after Trump.

Good news for a change.

Thanks!

Are you saying that crime has fallen in Houston because DA's aren't prosecuting crime in Houston?

The claim that crime has fallen in Houston because District Attorneys aren't prosecuting crime and not arresting people is a complex issue with no simple answer. While there has been a decrease in crime in Houston, it's important to consider various factors that may have contributed to this decline.


Here's a breakdown of the available information:


Evidence supporting the claim:

• Decreased arrests: Some data suggests a decline in arrests in Houston. According to the Houston Chronicle, arrests for violent crimes declined by 17% between 2019 and 2022.
• Reduced prosecutions: Some claim that certain District Attorneys in Texas have pursued less aggressive prosecution strategies, leading to fewer convictions and potentially emboldening criminals.
• Shift in priorities: Some argue that law enforcement agencies may have shifted their focus away from certain crimes, leading to lower reported crime rates.

Thanks ChatGPT.

Thanks ChatGPT.

You're welcome. Are you suggesting the information is incorrect?

I use BARD and ChatGPT a lot. Also Twitter. Far better than Mika and Joe and The View

There is no information there. You must not have read it.

I love ChatGPT, but you can't just ask it one question and be lazy.

It takes a series of questions to actually get a good answer.

The answer you posted doesn't provide any information other than the Houston Chronicle reports crime has fallen.

The thing is, AI doesn't reveal its sources. Consequently, you either simply accept what ChatGPT and BARD tell you or you have to do your own research. Just ask the lawyer who submitted a court brief prepared by AI. It just made up the citations. Judge was not happy when it came to light.

It's not hard to verify things.

I'm not suggesting that anyone use it to write a legal brief without having it checked. I use it all the time just to have it discuss something I am interested in, and it is almost always accurate.

It is already way better than the average human. It won't be long before it is better than 99% of humans.

Humans aren't perfect either.

It gives you the answer why and you just refuse to accept it because it goes against your entire belief system and is like trying to tell a devout Muslim that Mohammed was a warlord and then having to spend hours back and forth listening to the Muslim arguing about why that was. Or trying to tell a Christian that there was no body found in the tomb because it most likely was never put in any tomb because that wasn't customary for people who the government hung as seditionists.

It didn't remotely answer the question I had asked you.

The question I asked you was about what you were trying to say in the previous post. How would chatGPT know what you were thinking?

That's why Trump was arrested and charged with crimes, to help the crime rate go down. Why don't you support it?

How about focusing on the subject of the OP?

Is Lee still in Congress?

 

[BlueTex]

Too bad, eh? She is black and female and checks all the right libral boxes (mean, corrupt, evil) and now she won't be able to go after Trump.

How would she have gone after Trump as mayor?

It is when AI makes up shit out of the blue. The unfortunate reality is people are lazy. Students are lazy and will let AI write their term papers. Teachers are lazy and will not verify the student's bibliography. The state of scholarship is going to go downhill fast.

Stepping stone to AG, following the playbook of Leticia James. Can you just imagine what someone like her could use to destroy conservatives? Black, female. Mean, Evcil, foul-mouthed. The perfect human immune from criticism of the right because of her color and sex.

It is illusory that the crime rate has fallen. It's like saying the DA in Los Angeles has single-handeldly decreased the crime rate through his innovative crime measures and not mentioning he refuses to add the separate gun charge and is being sued over it with the case lagging a year and a half, not prosecuting violent felonies when the perpetrators are "of color", the police knowing all this and just not making arrests or bothering to investigate because they know the case will not be taken, etc.
