Ep 807 | 'Loving the Foreigner' Means Opposing Illegal Immigration | Guest: Barry Latzer

Today we're talking about the crisis at the border after Title 42 expired and immigration parole, as well as why Biden's immigration policies are so dangerous for our country. We look at the overcrowding issues at the border, as well as why we seem to see mostly grown men immigrate rather than women and children. Then we're joined by Barry Latzer, emeritus professor of criminal justice and author of "The Myth of Overpunishment: A Defense of the American Justice System and a Proposal to Reduce Incarceration While Protecting the Public," to discuss the failures of the justice system. We talk about the myth of over-punishment in the prison system, recidivism, and who is really paying the price for weak progressive policies on justice. We also look at the cases of Jordan Neely and Daniel Penny and why the system has failed both of them. We discuss some possible solutions, as well as why mental health services and psychiatric wards aren't actually that helpful to those suffering from mental illnesses, which creates further crime problems.
