If you were wondering how Democrats destroy American cities...

I heard this on NPR this morning. I had to look it up. Yes these lunatics are saying these laws that "target" minorities shouldn't be prosecuted because when they shoplift they often get probation, which leads to probation violations, which lead to them going to jail. SO they're now trying to circumvent the laws by placing these democratic prosecutors that will not prosecute these cases. How do people vote for this shit???

Fifteen crimes Rachael Rollins wouldn’t pursue as DA

Suffolk DA candidate Rachael Rollins’ campaign website calls for a different approach to prosecuting lesser crimes:

“Instead of prosecuting, these cases should be (1) outright dismissed prior to arraignment or (2) where appropriate, diverted and treated as a civil infraction for which community service is satisfactory, restitution is satisfactory or engagement with appropriate community-based no-cost programming, job training or schooling is satisfactory. In the exceptional circumstances where prosecution of one of these charges is warranted, the line DA must first seek permission from his or her supervisor.”

Charges for which the default is to decline prosecuting (unless supervisor permission is obtained):

•   Trespassing

•   Shoplifting (including offenses that are essentially shoplifting but charged as larceny)

•   Larceny under $250

•   Disorderly conduct

•   Disturbing the peace

•   Receiving stolen property

•   Minor driving offenses, including operating with a suspended or revoked license

•   Breaking and entering — where it is into a vacant property or where it is for the purpose of sleeping or seeking refuge from the cold and there is no actual damage to property

•   Wanton or malicious destruction of property

•   Threats — excluding domestic violence

•   Minor in possession of alcohol

•   Drug possession

•   Drug possession with intent to distribute

•   A standalone resisting arrest charge — i.e., cases where a person is charged with resisting arrest and that is the only charge

•   A resisting arrest charge combined with only charges that all fall under the list of charges to decline to prosecute, e.g. resisting arrest charge combined only with a trespassing charge

She's not letting them walk away, she's just not putting them in jail.

Restitution through fines, community service or job training.

if a country has problems with minorities then this can only be the fault of the ones in power...the ones in power create the system and it is their and only their fault if it goes wrong...

I can’t see the op but I assume he wants Sharia law. Conservatives are super confusing these days.

I love that the same people who think we shouldn't investigate attempted rape claims against a supreme court nominee are outraged that we might not jail someone for shoplifting.

He is gonna say he didn't do it she will say he did. There is no forensics evidence or witnesses what is there to investigate? Also now i see CNN calling on Trump to order the FBI to investigate lol

She can't remember the year, whose party it was or whose house it was. Seems legit

But seriously, the FBI already talked to this woman 2 months ago. They declined to persue it because she couldn't provide even basic details. It's also not the FBI's jurisdiction. It's a state-level crime (allegedly). And now she is refusing to respond to requests to go testify. Does not seem legit

If you were wondering how the Rupublicans destroy America, look no further than the white house and congress!

Just more bullshit in the long line of Democrat experiments to solve black criminality.

Everyone knows this stuff is useless, but "we have to do somethingggggg!"
