Defund the police first and foremost. Even though "we" won't have a neat little package and all the answers right away, "we" can 'experiment' while "we" go, and see how things turn out?
AOC is enamored with the idea of a collective (collectivists) social experiment.
Your life individually doesn’t matter to her (she has protection). Just one big giant political game for her and her ilk, all to grab complete power.
These are stupid kids playing with matches. They need to be spanked. She’d probably like that.
I have no problem with experimenting in New York City, no cops - lets see what happens.
Nonexistent reporter: Congresswoman, there are entire communities that are being held hostage by criminal elements. They are unable to go to a store without the clerk in a bullet proof cage. Their movements are monitored by cameras in the stores and in the streets. Children are unable to play in front of their homes, much less at a park, because of the violence that plagues their community.
If your plan doesn't address the fundamental rights of those communities to enjoy their homes, their parks, their streets, then why should any of them ever support you?
Vote for me, I'll make sure you have to huddle behind bulletproof walls. I'll decriminalize most things to make it easier for a young gangster to escalate into murder. And I'll be fine, because I have my safe neighborhood and personal security, while I cry over the difficulty in owning two homes on JUST a couple hundred grand a year.
Communities of color are under siege, murder rates are horrific, assaults are up, and all the while, you're saying don't call the cops because some criminal might get hurt when they attack the police. Explain your plan as if you actually have to live in the community. Then explain why you don't, both in your district and in the District of Columbia. Why do you claim to represent poor people but choose not to live with them?
Start by removing police protection from these Congressional assholes.
She wants a full-on Maoist Cultural Revolution, where police are replaced by “social work teams” and “neighborhood watch” groups which go forth and identify and harass free citizens who just want to be left alone. Eventually, they will be targeted for arrest on whatever crime the prosecutor wants to make up. Nobody will care because nobody will know because negative news will not be permitted.
Use the money from the Police Budget to pay people not to commit crimes?
Once you have paid him the Dane-geld
You never get rid of the Dane
AOC and experimentation?
Okay, let’s experiment with a brain transplant for Sandy from Westchester. The one she has is obviously addled and barely functional.
A lot of people here thought she would be one-and-done, but I predict she will cruise to victory.
AOC will be in charge of the “experiment”? Does she have a LE background?
She is so laughable. I just saw the post on Danny Trejo. She doesn’t understand so much...
For the communities she’s really talking about, we already have real world results: Africa and Central America. That’s what it looks like when those peoples do (mostly) their own thing as opposed be to being grafted onto a culture developed by white people. I know that’s frank talk in terminology that many find uncomfortable, but that’s reality.
Is it economics? Well, compare “socialist” Sweden with “free” Somalia or “free” Memphis, TN.
Is it religion? Black Americans are far more religious than Israelis. Tel Aviv is a lot nicer than Detroit.
Is it the Constitution? Liberia started with essentially the same Constitution as the United States. Results were different. I don’t know the story of the DemonKKKrats in Liberia, but it must be a wild one.
We already know how these “experiments” are going to turn out. Black areas will be like Africa, Hispanic areas will be like Central America, white areas will be like Europe (until all of their people are slaughtered).
That’s how the Dems do it: get rid of something they don’t like; then throw away money and lives “experimenting” to find its replacement.
The Chekists will be the enforcers under her reign. (old soviet system)
She’s saying she hasn’t a f*****g clue how they’re going to get their Federal police force, but you just be patient and they’ll get there one way or the other, and no matter how many, indeed in spite of how many people it kills.
POC are going to have to reform their anti-social behaviors in order to reach utopias and have the POPO melt away in their “Communities”.
What a frakin’ moronic idiot.
As always, these lame arse mofos demand something without ever thinking through the consequences or what to have in place of that which you seek to ‘defund’ or remove. OMFG!!!!! The utter idiocy of the Left is real.
So defund and dismantle the police... Then we'll "experiment" with public safety? That's your plan? That's not a plan, that's an admission you don't have a plan, don't know what the {expletive} you're doing or saying.
Personally, I don't think we should tear down a "safety critical" system without having a known-good replacement ready.
Hey AOC, how about we experiment with your public safety. No more armed guards around Congress. No more metal detectors. No more locks on your doors - they're obviously tools of oppression since slaves were at one time locked behind doors. How about it AOC and other good little leftists - are you going to "experiment" with your own safety like a good leader, or experiment with ours like a good dictator?
Dr. Cortez will see you now
Experiments !?! . What , like lab rats ? Where will these experiments take place, a camp?
