The Democrat nominee for U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania, John Fetterman, is going on the defensive regarding his stance on public safety after his criminal-friendly record was exposed.
***
Earlier this month, Fox News uncovered a clip where Fetterman asserted emptying the state’s prisons by one-third would not pose any more danger to the public than keeping the convicted criminals locked behind bars. He made the comments in a zoom call that was posted to YouTube in 2020, and he apparently cites former corrections director John Wetzel:
I was on a panel with Secretary [John] Wetzel earlier before the pandemic hit, and he said something remarkable that I agree with. He said, ‘We could reduce our prison population by a third and not make anyone less safe in Pennsylvania,’ and that’s a profound statement.
As the sitting lieutenant governor in the Quaker State, Fetterman serves as chairman of the five-person Board of Pardons. Since he assumed office in 2019, commutation recommendations from the board to Gov. Tom Wolf (D) have skyrocketed. The board has sent at least 46 suggestions for commutations to Wolf during Fetterman’s chairmanship, the Philadelphia Inquirer’s Julia Terruso reported in May.
“That’s compared with just six in Wolf’s first term, none under former Republican Gov. Tom Corbett’s one term, and only five during former Democratic Gov. Ed Rendell’s eight years in office,” she wrote.

who the hell did fetterman beat in the primary?
Uncle Fester with a beard. How can anybody vote for the guy?
(Don’t answer that. . . . . )
It’s hard to believe even the Democrats in Pennsylvania can’t see this guy is a total whack job.
You're talking about the same State that had a frickin' Tranny as Health Secretary.
Of course the Democrats can see that their candidate is a total whack job. But that's doesn't matter. What matters to Democrats is keeping a Democrat majority in the U.S. Senate.
If Republicans understood what the race is about, Oz would win handily.
Congressman Conor Lamb
Fetterman is another one of the Democrats’ lunatics. The best friend hardcore criminals could have in Pennsylvania.
If you gazed over the entire state...there must be twenty higher-qualified individuals (Democrats) for the job. I think he came across like some cartoon-character, with people thinking he’s the perfect oddball for the job.
And yet, FReepers, like Erik latranyi, are still pimping him because their {and my} choice for Senator got beat.
I no longer send a copy of my erik references to him because he is too far gone and I will not waste my time in a pissing contest with a banjo playing, porch sitting retard.
When you are playing defense you are losing. Shrek will drag down the whole rodent slate.
What’s wrong with PA people that he is even an option?

A group of dumb Pennsylvanians here on FR hope Fetterman wins. They trash Dr. Oz every day.

As Trump always says, that person you’re talking about is a LOW IQ INDIVIDUAL.
I live in an area covered by the Philadelphia television stations, so I see Fetterman’s commercials all the time. Lately, they have him wearing a white hoodie, which makes him look like less of a thug.
We’ve got a lot of extremely stupid and fuc#ed up people in this state. Promise them anything, no matter how ridiculous and as long as there is money or free sh#t involved they will go for it. I’d move to Florida in a blink, but having lived there in the early 70’s while in the military, I know the heat, humidity, bugs, and no mountains would do me in.
Well.....there.....you.....go.
The man has had a stroke. He cannot possibly do the job despite what a liberal whack job he is.
