Let's see: multiple jurisdictions have adopted the equivalent of no prisons by eliminating cash bail. How's that working out? It is amazing to hear the thoughts of people who will never have to suffer the consequences of their ideas. Every other day, there is the story of a multi-time offender who was released shortly after being arrested, only to go out and commit another crime, perhaps a crime in which an innocent was assaulted or killed.
When did it become fashionable to elevate the criminal over the law-abiding citizens? Probably around the same time it became cool to push for medical experimentation on children. Probably near the time that the border became a punchline and everyone wandering across it was treated like someone seeking asylum. Until a fraction of those people wound up in Martha's Vineyard, of course. Then we saw quite clearly what the left thinks of having to live up to what it wants to force on everyone else.
Exactly. I live in San Francisco and our recently ousted DA, Chesa Boudin, exercised his social justice experiment on the citizens of San Francisco to the demise of Public Safety. Every criminal in his eyes was the victim and were therefore released w/ankle monitor, promise to take a class or a simple misdemeanor. Well as no surprise to anyone, many went on to commit further crimes that resulted in violence and death.
