What a great idea!!!!

We can call the program ‘Corporal Punishment’ and start in kindergarten.

Maybe she’s right, but not the way she thinks. The best “community violence prevention program” is to round up criminals and put them somewhere where they can’t commit crimes against ordinary citizens. So yeah, if you want to fund prisons, get rid of the Commie DAs, and actually arrest, prosecute and imprison criminals, that would go a long way toward “community violence prevention”.

...addresses violence as a public health issue and allows social workers to investigate shootings without law enforcement.

Really? Social workers are trained to not contaminate a crime scene and take away funds that are needed to keep trainer police officers on the force?

There mitigation “programs” are always money down the toilet. The scumbags that are the subject of such programs merely game the system, take over the facilities, and destroy the properties involved in no time.

But it makes the Marxists feel soooo good.

As usual AOC can’t see the forest for the trees. Also in NYC the money for the program would go into the pockets of the people in charge.

I think they should have ALL police officers stay home for a month on paid leave.

In a month, they can revisit the defund the police movement.

Does anyone think AOC is angling for the Mayor’s job?

I think she is tired of being one of 435 voices in congress and shackled to the whims of the leadership.

As Mayor, she can implement her vision of a socialist utopia.

As Mayor, she can implement her vision of a socialist utopia.

She’ll be a candidate for President. Why think small when she can implement her wondrous visions on the entire nation?

AOC is a joke.

Bottom line, she stole money from the tip jar.

I’ve worked in busy bars and restaurants with a centalized tip jar. If her cohorts ever found that out, she woulda been taken out back for a lesson she would never forget.

Bottom line, she’s not to be trusted, ever. AOC has selfbranded herself a thief and a liar. Scum.

“Community Violence Prevention Programs Over Raising Police Wages”

Community Violence Prevention Programs?

Are those “programs” where they teach the gangs how to shoot, loot, and toot?

Isn’t moving their available money around like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic?
