THE PHILADELPHIA PLAN


PUBLIC SAFETY - GET REAL!

We support:

  • A federal law that requires states and local municipalities to protect the public!  Which many Democratic-run states and cities are no longer doing! That federal law would ban the homeless, mentally ill, and drug addicted from the streets, and require that state and local government to enforce the law or face jail-time themselves.. The full and effective enforcement of local, state, and federal safety laws, including: federal immigration laws, retail theft, homeless encampments on public or private property, as well as sitting, sleeping, loitering, or panhandling on public streets and sidewalks.  The Second Amendment, because without it we are defenseless against our enemies, both foreign and domestic, like the citizens of so many other countries have discovered... after their government took away their weapons.

  • Litigation by government offices, commercial, and/or private interests against any government office or official for failure to fully enforce the law.

  • The involuntary commitment of the mentally disabled and/or drug addicted individuals, who have demonstrated an inability or unwillingness to care for themselves, plus secure facilities in which to house and care for them.

  • Professionally trained "armed security" and qualified personnel at all schools.

  • Effective rehabilitation, education, and job training programs at public prisons.

  • A ban on private prisons as they incentivize incarceration.
