Manhattan DA to stop seeking prison sentences in slew of criminal cases

[jimc]

Looks like it's working in places like San Fran, might as well bring it to NYC. Here's the best one:

"Armed robbers who use guns or other deadly weapons to stick up stores and other businesses will be prosecuted only for petty larceny, a misdemeanor, provided no victims were seriously injured and there’s no “genuine risk of physical harm” to anyone. Armed robbery, a class B felony, would typically be punishable by a maximum of 25 years in prison, while petty larceny subjects offenders to up to 364 days in jail and a $1,000 fine."

If we're not prosecuting anyone, why do we need a DA?

To go after political enemies like the Trumps.

Where is the new mayor on this policy. You know, the ex cop who said he would get crime under control?

This reminds me of the movie "A clockwork orange". In the movie the government follows a deliberate policy of clearing prisons of actual criminals with the intent of using them for political prisoners. Coming soon to a neighborhood near you.

And as more violent crimes are committed with guns they will use that to push further gun control of tge law abiding.

So correct... This will encourage crimes dealing with guns as a " persuasive element "

And then we'll be just like England. The population is disarmed and homeowners face more trouble for defending their homes than criminals do breaking into the home.

I swear they want gun crimes to increase. That’s the only way to explain this honestly.
What if the gun shoots itself like Alec Baldwin what’s the charge then? Petit larceny? There was no intent of harm.

 

[Saltwater60]

What happened to equal protection under the law? If criminals have no consequences why is that fair to me? Also how can they have this policy in one place and not others? That is not equal protection under the law. They need to be able to be held liable for these actions that’s the only way. Some one will get killed and it won’t take long.

Didn't those morons just partner up with Everytown?
And this is what they come up with? rofl

Talk about the Hegelian Dialectic, lol

 

[repete]

Sounds good to me, what could go wrong?

They should check in with the Mayor of Waukesha, WI and see how that was working for them last month.

 

[Dr. Evil]

A good time to be a criminal in NYC.

People now go to jail if they live in NYC if they're unmasked and unvaxxed for sure eating in a Micky D's. They'll throw the book at them and lock'em up tight.

But eh, hold up an old lady at a liquor store with a gun, just a slap on the wrist...

This state doesn't make sense.

Consider yourself fortunate that it doesn't make sense. Sadly it makes perfect sense to the feckless morons you are surrounded by.
