Fury as Boston's woke Democrat mayor Michelle Wu claims criminals should NOT be prosecuted for these raft of shocking crimes
Daily Mail ^ | 05/30/2024 | James Gordon

Woke Democrat Mayor Michelle Wu, who has been mayor of Boston since November 2021 has long supported a progressive approach to crime but is now looking for some of the most basic offenses to be completely off-limits to prosecution.

Wu has argued for charges including shoplifting and disorderly conduct to be beyond the reach of prosectors along with other serious crimes including the receiving of stolen property and even driving with a suspended license.

But Wu's progressive outlook goes even further with the 39-year-old seemingly comfortable with offenders that commit 'quality of life' crimes getting off scot free.

They include the breaking and entering of property, wanton and malicious destruction of property, minor's in possession of alcohol and drug possession including the distribution of marijuana and non-marijuana types.



Wu wants shoplifting, larceny and disorderly conduct to not be prosecuted. Pictured, an unidentified man breaks the windows of a store in Boston in May 2020 (file photo)

Those who commit such wanton crimes would receive little more than a slap on the wrist.

The offenses are all on a 'do-not-prosecute' list that was created by former Suffolk County District Attorney Rachael Rollins.

Rollins, who later joined the Biden administration but resigned amid ethical violations, had advocated for the non-prosecution of more 'low-level' offenses.

In a 2021 Boston Mayoral Candidate Questionnaire, from Progressive Massachusetts, a nonprofit organization that tracks and ranks how progressive elected officials, Wu was asked if she supported Rollins list.

'Do you support the Suffolk County District Attorney's Office's do-not-prosecute list and expanded approach to dealing with such low-level offenses? YES/ NO?' Progressive Mass asked in its survey.

'Yes,' Wu responded.

When Wu was asked if she supported closing the Boston Police gang database, Wu again said yes.

Critics have argued that young people, primarily black and Hispanic males, have been incorrectly profiled as gang members and been entered in the database.

Recently the database was lauded after it played a crucial role in the federal bust of more than 40 people allegedly connected to a violent street gang that had operated for years out of a city housing project.

Isn’t it obvious that these crime friendly, drug friendly democrat policies (including the border)
are the result of the cartels owning that party?

Here’s the plan: you and a few friends plan a trip to Boston and then engage in these free crimes, such as a shoplifting spree. Then be sure to post the exploit on every social media page available, noting where, when, and how you did what you did. Encourage others to do the same. Hit woke places like Target primarily.
It’s Cloward–Piven back in their faces.

It’s so sad what’s happening with the dawn of these actual invaders. Here’s hoping we take it back someday, somehow. Given the woke globalist stranglehold on the world someone like this skank has almost unlimited power.

I thought at one time you were probably right, now I don’t think that way, I think these big city democrats are just that radical and aren’t bought off by anyone

It’s a hard thing to accept but when you come to realize these people hate the country and it’s founding principles then it’s much easier to see why they do certain things and it’s not the result of being bought off or being corrupt

She doesn't want these crimes punished until they are committed against her and her liberal friends. The people who vote for these douchebags get what they deserve. I don't go to the shit hole cities anymore. I could watch a homeless person defecate on a sidewalk on YouTube.

If i livved in a residential area, i would quietly have a mulch pit ready. And if someone broke into my house i would use my glock with a probably illegal silencer, take the body and deposit in the mulch pit. The next springmy vegetable garden would be very productive

Well the massholes voted for her and now they got what they asked for. But will they vote Republican? Of course not. They’ll just vote for a different Democrat who thinks the same as the incumbent tyrant.

Well it appears the melting pot experiment that was the USA is almost over. We can most certainly do better with what’s allowed in this country but no one does a damn thing. There’s really not one person worthy of being in congress doing the work of the people. The whole of congress can kma.

With the squishy little peons we’ve raised , none will lift a finger to fight for what is right. We continue the spiral down the drain. I’ve got 9 or so years until I’m retirement age, probably take me that long to figure out the best country to go to. This country sucks anymore.

I have been saying that for years. There is no way all of these politicians are acting just out of ideology. It is painfully obvious that many are financially aligned with cartels and represent their interests here in the US.
