On January 1, Alvin Bragg was sworn in as the district attorney of Manhattan, and upon taking office, he implemented some of the most radical and dangerous policies in the country.
His strategy for "fighting crime" - in the city where violent offenses have skyrocketed - is to simply not fight it at all. From refusing to prosecute resisting arrest cases to downgrading felonies like armed robberies, it is clear that Bragg’s "restorative justice" is the last thing New York City needs.
**SNIP**
As a DA, I used my discretion to decide the crimes I charged and the plea deals I struck. I was able to offer second chances when appropriate and when warranted, put my whole effort into sending criminals to prison for a long time. I could have made a lot more money at a fancy law firm, but that paycheck could never compete with the pride and satisfaction I felt putting bad guys behind bars and keeping my community safe.
When I was a prosecutor 20 years ago, the profession attracted Republicans, Democrats and Independents dedicated to the mission of dispensing the law and willing to take a government salary for the privilege to serve and administer justice. That’s all changing with the help of early Obama campaign investor and billionaire left-wing activist, George Soros, a man determined to "fundamentally transform" America by electing men like Bragg.
Around 2015, Soros devised a plan to destabilize America through our criminal justice system. His plan was as devious as it was smart. Instead of working to "reform" the criminal justice system by changing the laws on the books through legislatures, Soros funded a campaign to just change the district attorneys.

There is time that must be served for every crime.
The Blackrobe involved, the Magistrate (not Article III),
and every lawyer involved for the Defendants,
should EACH serve 10x the original time for that crime
ignored.
AMERICANS MASK:
Would that not be Justice ... and no longer Just-US.
Presumably, voters elected them.
Violence creates violence. Lawlessness creates more lawlessness. Wars create more wars.
The goal of the Democratic Party in America is to rip the country apart with strife, hate, violence and lawlessness.
The solution is simply to flee the corrupt jurisdictions. It is happening right now across the country There are no U-haul trucks left in California.
You can welcome anarchy but how do you force decent people to remain in it?
I think the US justice system is probably the weakest part of our government. I don’t know what it ought to be, but I think it ought to be re-invented. I would like to see mandated quick trials, mandatory sentences (including death sentences), limited appeals, and — perhaps most importantly — mandated prison sentences for attorneys and judges who make poor decisions that result in additional criminal behavior (ex. no bail for the accused murderer who then goes out and kills again? That judge should be made to regret that decision).
In short: I want more harshness, and I think the counter-argument (”Some innocent people might suffer”) is very weak because I look around right now and I see millions and millions of people who are suffering because of our current system.
They will use their phony “crime reduction” numbers to tout their success. As long as they run as a “D” there will be no ridding of them.
This is from an essay by Ayn Rand.. It’s called “To All Innocent Fifth Columnists.” She was trying to rouse the conservatives to fight against the coming Totalitarianism..
“What price your smug self-confidence? In the face of millions of foreign money and foreign agents pouring into our country, in the face of one step after another by which our country is [moving] closer to Totalitarianism — you do nothing except say: “It can’t happen here.” Do you hear the Totalitarians answering you — “Oh, yeah?”
Don’t delude yourself with slogans and meaningless historical generalizations. It can happen here. It can happen anywhere. And a country’s past history has nothing to do with it. Totalitarianism is not a new product of historical evolution. It is older than history. It is the attempt of the worthless and the criminal to seize control of society. That element is always there, in any country. But a healthy society gives it no chance. It is when the majority in a country becomes weak, indifferent and confused that a criminal minority, beautifully organized like all gangs, seizes the power. And once that power is seized it cannot be taken back for generations. Fantastic as it may seem to think of a dictatorship in the United States, it is much easier to establish such a dictatorship than to overthrow it. With modern technique and modern weapons at its disposal, a ruthless minority can hold millions in slavery indefinitely. What can one thousand unorganized, unarmed men do against one man with a machine gun?
And the tragedy of today is that by remaining unorganized and mentally unarmed we are helping to bring that slavery upon ourselves. By being indifferent and confused, we are serving as innocent Fifth Columnists of our own destruction.
There is no personal neutrality in the world today.
Repeat that and scream that to yourself. In all great issues there are only two sides — and no middle. You are alive or you are dead, but you can’t be “neither” or “in between.” You are honest or you are not — and there is no neutral “half-honest.” And so, you are against Totalitarianism — or you are for it. There is no intellectual neutrality.
The Totalitarians do not want your active support. They do not need it. They have their small, compact, well-organized minority and it is sufficient to carry out their aims. And they want from you is your indifference. The Communists and the Nazis have stated repeatedly that the indifference of the majority is their best ally. Just sit at home, pursue your private affairs, shrug about world problems — and you are the most effective Fifth Columnist that can be devised. You’re doing your part as well as if you took orders consciously from Hitler or from Stalin. And so, you’re in it, whether you want to be or not, you’re helping the world towards destruction, while moaning and wondering what makes the world such as it is today. You do.
The Totalitarians have said: “Who is not against us, is for us.” There is no personal neutrality.
And since you are involved, and have to be, what do you prefer? To do what you’re doing and help the Totalitarians? Or to fight them?
I guess no one has heard of impeachment.
Pass a Federal Crime Accountability Act.
Allow victims of crimes to sue municipalities and prosecutors personally who let criminals out if they victimize the innocent.
That’d do it.
Trump, when back in office, will have to do a full house cleaning of DOJ. Prosecute the thugs in the Soros DA cities for federal gun crimes.
Require anyone convicted must be housed in a state not of their residence. Make the families of the thugs have a cost to even see them.
Again, solutions are available.
Then look into the campaign financing. How is Soros legally able to fund millions in these local races? Wasn’t there a certain conservative commentator convicted of giving five grand to an election? Soros and Zuckerberg give hundreds of millions? Make that a criminal enterprise.
Take out Soris and his spawn. Problem solved at the source.
Ya Think?
Cut permissible appeals times to max 3 months for capital crimes. Make capital crimes actually capital crimes. Capital means the head and refers to cutting it off. We don’t have to institute the guillotine but the electric chair would be a good step, or rope.
If we put a weight limit on them and they are forced to control their weight, they’ll probably just resign. Anybody over 300 lbs needs to be gone.
Done. I have had enough of that self-entitled slimy despotic megalomaniac.
In the article, while he downgraded armed robbery, he WILL prosecute “domestic violence”, so don’t ever get into an argument with your wife or teen where they call the cops because they “feel threatened”.
LA DA Hesitates to Lock Up a Child Rapist Because the Rapist is Trans

“Prosecute the prosecutors?”
Exactly. US AG prosecutes for violation of civil rights against the public and for corruption.
The solution, as in the case of the old West, and as in the case of remote places, where there is no “justice”, is that the victims and associates of the victims just take care of “justice” themselves.
Quite the short cut.
