Maher: ‘Crime Is Kind of out of Control’ and New York’s Justice System Is ‘a Turnstile’
Breitbart ^ | 04/21/2023 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 04/22/2023 7:23:42 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher stated that “It seems like crime is kind of out of control” and the crime situation in New York can’t be controlled unless they stop their justice system from being “a turnstile.”

Maher said, “It seems like crime is kind of out of control. I was reading that, in New York, a third of all the shoplifting cases are by 327 people, in a city of 8 million, because they keep getting returned to the streets, which has to be terrible for the morality — morale of the cops, that they keep arresting people and the same people — it’s Groundhog Day for them. I know they have — we have problems with the cops, I’ve certainly not been shy about talking about them on this show, but I don’t understand how we’re going to get this situation under control unless they feel like what they do has some meaning as opposed to just a turnstile.”

Yesterday: “Cops bad. Prosecutors bad. Prisons bad. There is no justice. DEFUND!”

Today: “Crime SEEMS out of control.”

Nothing gets past these guys.

You have 72 hours to agree to penalty room time by spending your first eight hours of penalty time in one of our penalty rooms, or your case will be handled by the DA and you can face jail.

A penalty time room system eliminates the need to provide a public defender, judge, health care and food to an offender. The offender can keep his/her regular job as well.

A shoplifter might have to spend eight hours plus one hour per ten dollars of goods stolen in program penalty time room within say 30 to 60 days of arrest.

The expression "out of control" implies that someone was trying to control it but failed.

More accurate: Crime is actively encouraged by the ruling class as part of class warfare.

Billy needs to shut it. He helped create today’s chaos.

New York’s justice system is not only a “turnstile”, but an oxymoron.
