Criminologists Mislead Us
Walter E. Williams September 04, 2019
Liberal criminologists outnumber their conservative counterparts by a ratio of 30-to-1.
John Paul Wright, professor at University of Cincinnati, and Matthew DeLisi, professor at Iowa State University, have penned a powerful article titled “What Criminologists Don’t Say, and Why,†in City Journal, Summer 2017. There is significant bias among criminologists.
The reason for that bias is that political leanings of academic criminologists are liberal. Liberal criminologists outnumber their conservative counterparts by a ratio of 30-to-1. Ideology almost perfectly predicts the position of criminologists on issues from gun control to capital punishment to harsh sentencing.
Liberal criminologists march in step for gun control, oppose punitive prison sentences, and are vehemently against the death penalty.
