A new Manhattan DA promises a surge of crime, violent and otherwise
American Thinker ^ | 5 Jan, 2022 | Andrea Widburg

What we can also expect is that neither the DOJ nor the New York State attorney general will do anything to stop it.

Manhattan’s newly sworn-in District Attorney started by making a very important announcement: He will no longer be enforcing the law. This is, of course, illegal and should subject him to criminal prosecution at either the state or the federal level. Of course, that won’t happen. Instead, Manhattan will become a Mad Max-esque city, so rife with crime that, eventually, all normal life stops.

When Alvin Bragg ran to be Manhattan’s DA, his slogan was “Justice for All.” In his campaign biography, he explained to the voters that he “has spent the better part of two decades in the courtroom, standing up to the powerful and fighting to get justice.” He spent his career “standing up for tenants’ rights, civil rights and human rights.” Additionally, he “served as the first Chief of a special unit that investigated police-involved killings.” These are all interesting statements from someone running, not to be a defense attorney or a plaintiff’s attorney, but to represent the state of New York and the borough of Manhattan in actions against alleged criminals.

SNIP

Upon being sworn in, Bragg immediately gave Soros value for his money. In his first memo to his staff, Bragg stated that his office will seek to incarcerate only those people who commit homicide, and a few other activities, including domestic abuse, public corruption, and some sex crimes. His assistant DAs have almost no discretion in the matter:

“This rule may be excepted only in extraordinary circumstances based on a holistic analysis of the facts, criminal history, victim’s input (particularly in cases of violence or trauma), and any other information available,” the memo reads.

People will have to escape from New York. I just hope they don't move to red states and then vote for the same thing!

Soros is truly an evil person!

What'd they expect, voting in a Social Justice Warrior as a DA in Manhattan.

Yeah, FLEE! FLEE as fast as you can. A crime wave on steroids is soon to come to Manahattan.

This is just what the Progressive Democrats want for you. Learn America learn, the Democrats and the RINOs want America destroyed so that they can have Communism or Socialism their bloody way.

The only crimes he will prosecute are murder and public corruption which means he will prosecute Trump 24/7 until he can find something that sticks. If not, he’ll charge Trump with murder.

Except those who violate mask and vax passport dictates.

Then they will be treated worse than the hardened criminals.

I suppose the best we can hope for is that the career criminals start fighting each other and kill each other off for us, and no innocent people get injured or killed. Especially the children, who have no choice about where they are being raised.

Of course they’ll move to red states and vote the same mess in there! Civic ignorance and it’s bedfellow, cognative dissonance, is now a metastasizing cancer that is going to take us all down.

Soros is an evil person but a population of credulous fools is his lawful prey.

This IS the Bolshevik revolution, bringing chaos and lawlessness. The imbeciles who pursue this madness will, true to form, be the first ones exterminated when the New World Order is established in the wake of their chaos.

You can bet he will be investigating Trump and his family trying to fabricate a crime.

It used to be common for people running for DA, Sheriff, etc to campaign with the phrase "tough on crime". The libs are now electing people who promise the exact opposite. Why would anyone but criminals support law enforcement people who promise to be "soft on crime"?

Adam’s and Bragg will ensure that the next 4 years are an acceleration of the NYC death spiral started by DeBlasio. Bragg has declared an open season for looting, armed robbery and assorted anarchy. The tourism industry in Manhattan will never recover. Good on the people who voted for this insanity.

Yes, the Useful Idoits are eliminated first as they will not be pure enough for the bloody revolution.
