Another day in San Francisco

You know, way back when, corrupt mayor Alioto would withdraw police protection from an SF neighborhood, wait until crime got so out of control that real estate prices went down, buy up property, put back the police, and then sell for a profit.

Maybe we are seeing the same thing right now, but on a much larger scale.

Chicago cops TURNED THEIR BACKS on Mayor Lightfoot as she tried to greet them at the hospital after their fellow officer was killed during a traffic stop

This is a very hopeful development.

When all the police are fed up with leftism, then we will be free.

After Voting to Defund Police, Seattle Mayor Offers Cops $25K Signing Bonuses

Defunding the police will further turn the USA into a third world country.

The crime and security problems in poor countries like Mexico are more severe because they don’t have the money to hire and keep an army of cops, contrasting with NYC which employs a lot of them.

I can’t imagine what it is like living in dumps like Detroit, Newark, St. Louis, Oakland, and other such hellholes.
Edit: I forgot Baltimore.

Bloody Portland is struggling to reverse the deadly consequences of its BLM-Antifa agenda, but it's too little and too late, writes journalist Andy Ngo
In October, Portland city council member Jo Ann Hardesty, who was the most vocal about defunding police and called last year's riots 'the new civil rights movement,' ordered the city place more traffic cones in the roads to combat surging shootings. It didn't work.
Last month city council voted to refund police in a new budget that added back $5.2 million to what was cut last year. The Gun Violence Reduction Team that was abolished has also been resurrected under a new name, the Focused Intervention Team—but it's not operational because few officers are volunteering to join.

Terrified Beverly Hills residents are flocking to buy guns from city’s only firearms store as LA crime soars thanks to woke DA’s policies - with latest home invasion seeing dad forced to watch as his disabled son was ZIP-TIED by burglars
Beverly Hills Guns has seen upscale residents from Santa Monica to the Hollywood Hills increasingly buying guns amid a rise in crime
Many are self-declared progressives, who've never even held a gun before, but who've been spooked by soaring crime in their ritzy neighborhood
Some have also discussed more elaborate security measures, such as armored cars, safe rooms and bulletproof glass
Hollywood's violent crime rate is up 25 percent over last year, with the homicide rate doubling and shootings up 54.2 percent over last year
The city has been plagued by a rash in slash-and-grab lootings that first began after Black Lives Matter protests ended with a riot on Rodeo Drive
More recently, a man taking out his garbage on Thursday was attacked by four or five suspects and his disabled son was zip-tied as they ransacked his home
Beverly Hills has now hired two private security firms to patrol neighborhoods alongside the police
Residents are also forming their own patrol groups as District Attorney George Gascon faces another recall effort for the rise in crime

In Manhattan it looks like they're going one further than defunding the police.

Looks like the justice system simply won't lock them up at all.

Whaddya think is going to happen?

Well, if people are smart in NYC, and I doubt they are, the citizens would start committing all sorts of crimes against the DA that are offenses that won't lead to incarceration.

No such thing, as ANY crimes against that DA would lead to incarceration. You can burn down a business, but don't you dare throw an apple core into the DA's yard.

My belief is that reliable government law enforcement (police as well as contract law and upholding standards) lead to a much more productive society. First, people don't have to spend so much time and effort protecting themselves or their property. Second, people can make long-term plans for efficient production of needed things. For example, why would someone build a factory and hire employees — a multi-year endeavour — if they thought the employees or consumers or government would just steal everything. A society without some sort of law and order can't progress beyond hunter/gatherer techniques. A local strong-man or war-lord can act as law-and-order, getting you beyond hunter/gatherer, but the society won't have human ingenuity unlocked beyond what a dictatorship provides.

Train Robberies Cause Union Pacific, Shipping Companies to Consider Avoiding LA

Union Pacific (UP), the nation’s largest rail freight company, sent a letter to Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon stating that train robberies in his jurisdiction have increased by 356 percent from October 2020 to October 2021.

Robbery losses are so high that the company is considering ceasing traffic through the county.

FedEx and UPS are also trying to divert railroad shipping away from the area, the letter stated.

“We do not take this effort lightly, particularly during the supply chain crisis, as this drastic change to our operations will create significant impacts and strains throughout the local, state, and national supply chain systems,” the letter reads.

But slower shipping still beats shipping that gets stolen.

The Democrats are now the party of crime.

The article said UP owns and operates 3 or the 5 railyards in LA.

Maybe chyna is paying this democrat DA to go woke and make it unprofitable for UP to operate, in hopes they will sell and flee? Then chyna can buy it, and poof, the rail robberies suddenly stop.

Or more likely its just dems causing racial problems to ensure to future continuance of their racial political platform.

The twitter comments are funny because many dems are oblivious to why the brazen theft is happening. Many blame the security guard as being corrupt, or say it's not theft just someone walking out with the goods they purchased.

They don't realize their CA laws allow it, and DAs dismiss it.

Widow of NYPD Officer Jason Rivera blasts Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg in moving eulogy
By Gabrielle Fonrouge
January 28, 2022

https://spectatorworld.com/topic/the-year-left-wing-ideas-came-home-to-roost/?source=patrick.net

As dumb as the “Defund the Police!” slogan sounded back in May 2020, try promoting it now when the murder rate in this country is nearing a 25-year high.

In February 2021, San Francisco Mayor London Breed announced $120 million in cuts to her city’s police and sheriff’s department. Ten months later, she stood in front of a podium and declared that she was requesting more money from the city board of supervisors for the police. “And it comes to an end when are we more aggressive with law enforcement and less tolerant of all the bulls–t that has destroyed our city,” she said. While she did not admit that her own irresponsible policies had enabled said “bulls—t” to surge, her sudden about-face was admission enough.

The painful results of the Squad’s dreams coming true are hard for some politicians to ignore and rationalize. The senseless killings and organized robberies are bound to separate the men from the boys in the progressive movement. ...

These soft-on-crime policies were at the forefront of Dominique Luzuriaga’s mind as she delivered a eulogy for her husband, NYPD officer Jason Rivera, on Friday.

Officer Rivera died in the line of duty while responding to a 911 call in Harlem on January 21.

Through tears, his widow said, “This system continues to fail us. We are not safe anymore, not even the members of the service. I know you were tired of these laws, especially the ones from the new DA. I hope he’s watching you speak through me right now.”

It was a powerful rebuke of Bragg and even more so of the anti-police attitude that the left has encouraged for years. ...

Democrats are learning the hard way that these “catchy slogans” (as Obama once called them) and radical movements don’t just inspire puff pieces in the Washington Post. They lead to real crime and real hurt. We are going to find out very quickly which liberals were merely going along for the radical ride until the reality became too much to bear. Some politicians are already reversing course.

We are also going to find out which progressives are the true believers and stay the course. That might be the scariest discovery of all.

Now, Rapaport is checking back in at his neighborhood Rite-Aid and it is completely bare and will be closing down, thanks to the Biden crime wave.

Back in my Rite-Aid and there's nothing to steal, because this Rite-Aid, like so many other Rite-Aids, is closing down because everybody stole everything.

And the workers here don't know if they're getting jobs.

He is so, so close to figuring it out.
He lives in New York City, he votes for leftists, and crime is skyrocketing...






You can do it, Michael!

2021 was all time record police deaths.

2022 has dozens already, not even into February, will probably beat it.

We tried this in the 60s and 70s, and it led to high crime. What stopped it was expanding concealed carry and minimum sentences. Bring back 3 strikes. End Low Bail for violent crime.
