bill bratton, who i respect highly has been on the show.c, we had a town hall with police chiefs from major cities all across this country talking about those issues. so far, though, so far, and they could be right, i haven't seen any empirical evidence that it is bail reform. of course people who are violent criminals should not be let out. if someone commits a violent crime they should not be let out -- >> new york, chicago, and san francisco are all test cases of reforms that -- >> much has been anecdotal. i want to see the research for the real results. i'm not saying it's right or wrong. >> covid's part of it too. it's not going to be one thing. but you had a lot of people in prisons in new york and in other big states and you have a lot less now, and you have a lot of people who get arrested for crimes where they're using a loaded weapon and they wind up being back out on the street. >> that's not good. and that should not happen. >> no, it shouldn't. >> as i have been saying all along -- listen, i've been on this for a long time talk
