As someone who does not live in New York City, I support Alvin Bragg’s decision not to prosecute theft

This article from Fox News is called, Alvin Bragg promises not to prosecute theft to establish ‘racial equity’ balance: ‘Crime of poverty’.

I support the right of the 50 states and their respective cities to engage in different kinds of experiments, including ones that I think are ridiculous. I’m in favor of this particular one, because it’s what the voters wanted, and because I don’t live in this city.

I’m going to have a lot of fun watching all those YouTube videos of criminals in New York City who are smart enough to realize that they will never be prosecuted. How can I even blame them, when the person in charge of running the city is telling them that it’s OK for them to do what they are doing? The people of New York City are about to get exactly what they voted for, and I am going to have a lot of fun watching it happen.

I agree with him, but I think Red States should offer their run of the mill criminals a one way bus ticket and $200 to move to CA or NY

Something there is that doesn’t love a wall. That wants it down.

They’ll be the death of the city, these poets.

Crime is the solution to poverty!!

I want there to be a vibrant healthy NYC (and SFO, MSP, etc) where the indigenous can stay and flourish and not move near me.

And the guy who thought up the idea of arresting them for jaywalking is still around and speaking wisdom.

Only dead voters support pro-crime (non)prosecutors.

Oops. Thanks.

With my bad eyesight these days and a cracked phone screen...it’s a wonder I can type “dog”.

Corrected.

Allowing the little crimes without consequence leads to more and bigger crimes being committed.

That’s the way to support democrats. When a gun control bill comes up make sure to write the editors and claim, “ as a straight white male I do not feel safe with trnasgenders and poor people of color having such easy access to firearms. I full support this bill to keep hands out of those people.”

It drives them insane.

I’d like more commentary from Dan about issues in Squirrel Hill.
