Sharpton was there, and spoke about white supremacy, and the history of the Klan. Of course no one bothered to mention that blacks have probably killed a larger number of blacks than the Klan ever did.
Hochul and Cuomo, are responsible for closing 5 prisons in New York State this year. They also released many inmates whose sentences were cut short. Some were released because of the Covid lockdown, while others were released to make room at other prisons to accommodate the inmates in the prisons that were being closed. How is that preventing crime? Prison is supposed to be a deterrent. How can it be, when they aren't even required to complete their court-ordered sentence, that they were given as part of a plea deal? Nobody does the time for the actual crime they commit anymore because of plea deals. Criminals make out like bandits, and the victims, and their families never get justice.
Hochul also mentioned mental health services during her speech. This is another area where Democrats have failed the people of New York State. Both Governor Cuomo's closed multiple state psychiatric centers, and dumped the residents onto the street with little or no supervision. When they closed the psych centers, they turned several of them into prisons. Many of those former psych center residents eventually ended up in the State's prison system. I know, because I worked 25 years as an officer and Sergeant in that same prison system. The Criminal Justice system in the State of New York has been broken for a very long time. Another piece of legislation isn't going to fix it. They will pass stricter laws to use against law abiding citizens, but then will allow the actual criminals to run amok in the streets. How is that going to prevent crime?
“witch” is too nice a word. Hubby and I use a DIFFERENT word and it doesn’t rhyme with “witch.”
