Haunted by his violent past, Paul Kersey (Charles Bronson) struggles to forget the brutal deaths of his loved ones—and his obsessive one-man battle to avenge their murders. But when a dose of toxic “crack” kills the young daughter of his new girlfriend (Kay Lenz), Kersey again becomes the infamous urban vigilante. Vowing to wipe out the entire cocaine network of L.A., he skillfully lures two vicious, competing drug empires into a bloody turf war. But there’s a sinister force behind the scenes (John P.

DEATH WISH 3- 1985 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Paul Kersey (Charles Bronson) returns to New York City to visit an old friend. Before he can get there, the friend is brutally murdered by a neighbourhood gang that control the streets. Paul is arrested for the murder but recognised by the police chief who forces him to go back to his old vigilante ways and clean up the streets....

Body Count: 83.

First time watching this and couldnt have enjoyed it more. Its like Death Wish 1 on steroids. Everything is bigger and more explosive. The pacing is faster. The action scenes are so over the top its amazing.

Therr are many scenes that make little sense and are rushed in with little to no explanation but it doesnt seem to hurt the movie at all.

Death Wish 3 was shredded by critics and even by star Charles Bronson who was unhappy with the ultra-violent direction it went in. However, in the years since its release, it seems to have developed the biggest cult audience of any of the Death Wish movies.

Charles Bronson reminds me of my old dog Romulus. R.I.P Romulus.

This is what Letitia James and Alvin Bragg have caused.

Update

What will the bail be? Shouldn't be any, but it's New York.

As of May 5, there were 511 rapes reported in New York City, the same total as last year over the same period, according to NYPD data.

the “revenge immigration” concept is the #1 thing pushing me away from the political left

I was always left-liberal growing up, had a great deal of emotional and rational investment in the idea of protecting the weak, protecting women, ensuring fairness, justice, and so on. Along with things like progressive/left economics, environmentalism, food safety, etc, that aren’t relevant to this topic.

I got really discombobulated when my liberal friends in college came out in favor of mass migration in Europe despite upticks in sex crimes, or when they started defending extremely lenient criminal justice policies in America, or when I saw their opinions about Rotherham and other such things. I still had my intense sense that fairness needed to be brought forth, but suddenly it seemed that many of the people being treated unfairly were from my ethnicities, and my “team” wasn’t shifting to take our side.

I actually got really pretty right wing on race relations, it felt increasingly like minority men and boys were seeing my group as their innate tribal enemy and sending attacks out against us, and the state didn’t care to do anything about it. The “anarcho-tyranny” arguments that the RW weirdos make feel much too close to the mark for my comfort. Idk how to feel anymore.

That’s the funny thing about the state monopoly on violence, it supposed to go both ways, the state gets the monopoly, but in exchange they agree to enact violence on your behalf when needed, so you don’t have to be at constant war with your neighbors. They are not holding up their end of the bargain. They manage to hold the monopoly if the attacked group stands up for itself though, because apparently that’s too much like a pogrom to be ok, but a rape conspiracy is all hunky-dory.

I’m politically homeless now. I still disagree with conservatives on most topics like the economy, workers rights, environment, abortion, taxes, but I’m somewhere to the right of Paul Kersey where crime policy is concerned, and I’m pretty much soured on multiculturalism and immigration. Protecting people from racially-motivated violence was supposed to be for everyone, but if it’s not going to work that way, I don’t want to live around other people who are apparently allowed free rein to hurt my female friends and family. I was against white racist gangs because I didn’t want to be in one, and I’d naively thought we all agreed that minority racist gangs were also bad for the same reasons.

to Feotakahari - RE: what could be done?

I want every grooming gang participant in jail for 25-life, and those sentences broadly reported to the public as a message that this is being taken seriously. Name and shame the perpetrators in the media, along with publicly naming and shaming any government official or police officer complicit in the coverup, along with possible jail time for the biggest “cover-uppers” on the grounds of obstruction of justice. Make people feel that the state will consistently protect the innocent and punish the guilty, and they’ll start to calm down. It’ll take years, that’s a huge blow to public trust in the powers that be.

This is, tbh, already a compromise, I’m very angry about this topic and would personally see it handled in a more medieval/tribal kind of way, but I acknowledge that that’s my emotions talking.

also, it’s only vaguely related, but Tessa Majors’ death was so emblematic of what I mean. If the races had been switched, it would’ve been a 6-month media circus and necessitated a “national conversation”, but when the robbed and murdered girl is white, somehow it’s not a hate crime? She looked a lot like one of my little cousins, so that one hit close to home.

You view your friends in a high-dimensionality way, as people to cherish and strengthen.

The political formation views your friends in a low-dimensionality way, as resources to exploit, and as the amount of human agency in the system declines and its sub-units become more unaligned from the national interest, less human attention, and therefore less intention, is directed towards the long-term preservation of those "resources."

You have the national interest layer, and then you have the bureau layer, and the career layer, and the not-even-career layer, and as the failure to align the overall structure through discipline and intention continues, personnel behavior within the structure falls towards the career layer and the overall structure's behavior becomes incoherent.

It took me a long time, reading from a number of sources, and developing some new analytical techniques, in order to develop my "missing agency" theory.

Interestingly, one potential implication is that as the behavior alignment level falls, the structure itself may become less able to mount a defense, due to a reduced amount of intention and investment behind it, and thus a reduced ability to perceive the environment and respond to change.

Thus, over time, an opposing organization higher in intention would need fewer and fewer personnel to successfully impose policy on the target.

The variable running in the other direction is that some guy who doesn't do his job but gets paid anyway can spend the money better helping to defend himself from getting punished for not doing his job.

Lots to think about.

ETA:

In markets, there's more of a limit on this mission decay, as there's much more direct feedback, and a structure that doesn't remain aligned will go bankrupt and has to outperform competitors.

However, the feedback on a corporation only causes relatively more local alignment. A lack of agency will cause a corporation to fail to adapt to much larger changes in the environment.

This suggests that there may be something analogous for politically-supported organizations, the political equivalent of going bankrupt.

That reminds me of the TIMAC post Graph of Redundant Inexpensive Departments.

Quando CHI DEVE non fa il proprio dovere (non faccio nomi, altrimenti i suoi "piccoli fans" si offendono e mi danno del kompagno) , allora può capitare che il GIUSTIZIERE DELLA NOTTE che si può annidare nel nostro subconscio , quello di ognuno di noi, salta fuori all'improvviso, cappello e giubbotto nero, baffetto e pistola in tasca, e reagisce, si riprende il suo con gli interessi e si vendica.

Oggi Viareggio è migliore.

I residenti respireranno senz'altro un'aria più pulita, più salubre, perché un sacchetto della spazzatura è finito finalmente in un inceneritore , liberando la città dal suo disgustoso olezzo.

E questo è quanto, senza emotività, senza pietà, perché la spazzatura non ne merita.

Cinzia dal Pino è apparentemente passata e ripassata su quel sacchetto per schiacciarlo ben bene, prima che finisse nell'inceneritore.

Poi è semplicemente scesa dall'auto , si è ripresa la sua borsa che il rifiuto solido urbano le aveva scippato, e se ne è andata.

E poi, solo poi, forse, mentre guidava per tornare a casa, il Charles Bronson/Dottor Paul Kersey che era in lei se ne è tornato a cuccia, è rientrato, finalmente appagato, nei labirintici meandri della mente umana, e la Signora si è resa conto di cosa avesse fatto.

Ma era sconvolta.

Era fuori di sé, arrabbiata, umiliata , spaventata.

Magari, dopo aver investito il sacchetto, invece di ingranare la retromarcia ha ingranato più volte la prima, che non ci capiva più nulla, presa da quel RAPTUS di cui i giornali tanto hanno parlato, per tentare di giustificare l'assassino pigmentato di Sharon Verzeni.

"Momentaneamente incapace di intendere e volere", insomma, a causa del TRAUMA che il Tale e Quale le aveva cagionato.

Mi sembra di poter affermare che la Signora quindi è assolutamente innocente , immacolata direi, per le nostre coscienze di vittime sacrificali dell'altrui tradimento ed infamità, perché solo degli infami e dei traditori, possono consentire, governando una Nazione, che essa venga continuamente riempita di spazzatura senza muovere un dito, né mai svuotare il cestino.

Ma a Viareggio , oggi, grazie a lei, si cammina un po' più tranquilli per strada.

Buona Fortuna , Signora Cinzia, siamo tutti con Lei!
