Almost a week ago, following calls from the streets for “police reform”
in New York City, Mayor Bill de Blasio and his Police Chief responded by
disbanding the city’s more than 600-person plainclothes anti-crime
unit. (Because your go-to move when facing a rolling series of riots and
arson attacks is to dump your anti-crime unit.) That seemed to please
at least some of the anti-cop activists and agitators while scaring the
bejesus out of homeowners and small businesses. So how’s that decision
working out for them so far? According to the New York Post and some of
the NYPD men and women in blue who haven’t been canceled yet, pretty
much as you probably would have predicted. Shootings and murders have
shot up – pun intended – with violent crime rates more than double the
same period last year........
This is also a good moment to stop and ask ourselves just how these gun
crime rates are spiraling upward so quickly. This is New York City. It
has some of the harshest gun control laws in the entire country. It’s
nearly impossible to legally purchase a firearm there no matter how
pristine your record is. You’d think halting nearly all gun sales would
cut down on gun crimes, wouldn’t you? At least that’s the theory the
Democrats generally run with................To Read More.....
My Take -I remember when de Blasio was first running for Mayor of NYC. I
watched the debate where there were a bunch of Democrats and one
Republican, and although the Republican wasn't impressive, he didn't
look insane as did the rest.
Anthony
Weiner was running then and, believe it or not, he sounded the most
sane of the Democrats, and by a lot! As for de Blasio, he just talked
and said nothing, safe strategy since his real views were clearly more insane than his fellow Democrats. But his far left credential were well known, so there was no way they could use ignorance as an excuse.
So,
what's the real issue here? Since it was clear a Democrat was going to
get the job, and when all you have to pick from are turds, all you can
get is a turd. And NYC is getting the stench they deserve.
Maybe they need more activity in place of accomplishment, like more gun laws?
