New Yorkers are about to get what they voted for, and they deserve it...
We do not need any research to know that Bragg’s policy will produce disastrous results — common sense tells us so and, given what we’ve seen in other cities where funding from George Soros has elected “progressive” district attorneys like Bragg, we know that life in New York City will become nightmarish. Prostitutes and drug dealers will ply their trades without fear of prosecution, carjackings and burglaries will skyrocket, and the daily death toll from drive-by shootings will shock the nation.
“Social justice” requires this. It is unfair for some people to live in safe neighborhoods with nice cars; to make things equal, every neighborhood in New York City must become as lawless and chaotic as the worst slums of the Bronx. While “social justice” will not improve the quality of life of allegedly “oppressed” minorities — indeed, black and brown people will be victimized at much higher rates — it will help accomplish Bragg’s real goal, i.e., to make life worse for white people in New York.
You’re not supposed to say this out loud, of course, but this is the ultimate meaning of all that “Critical Race Theory” noise. The problem with law enforcement, according to the CRT perspective, is not merely the “disparate impact” of locking up black criminals. No, the real problem is that keeping criminals in jail allows white people to live in nice neighborhoods. It is wrong for white people to be safe from crime.

For me, The Bronx has been a no-go-zone since the early 60’s.
We are in a cultural cold war with these people. Do not give them aide. Do not feel sorry for them. Until they repent, have nothing to do with them.
I just heard the Mayor of New York City and the Governor of New York talking on the TV.. After hearing what they had to say, the best advice anyone could possibly give the working-class Americans who live in New York city is this... GET THE HELL OUT OF THERE.!!!
That city is quickly on its way to becoming a foreign crap hole.. If it isn’t that already...
Means pretty much the same as “jumbo shrimp”.
Or “intelligent leftist”.
My son lives there and he has bought into this s**t, hook, line, and sinker.
These Daze, I keep the Bronx at a Social Distance of >1600 mi.
” “Envy was once considered to be one of the seven deadly sins before it became one of the most admired virtues under its new name, ‘social justice’.””
Thomas Sowell
Or “Mostly Peaceful Riots”.
Yep.
To a great extent in the past, blue collar white neighborhoods, especially Italian American areas, were relatively free of street crime. The Mafia and other gangs kept these areas reasonably safe. However, in New York and other cities, such neighborhoods are largely gone.
Communism.
Great quote.
Brilliant man, that Thomas.
I’m sorry for you.
It’s so hard to watch family and loved ones go off the deep end like that and embrace such a self-destructive mindset.
How old is your son?
And, has he been mugged yet?
To the Left “social justice” means equity (equal outcomes), not equality (equal opportunity).
Wonderfully stated
