Obese
rapists, insane serial killers, and child molesters over 55 years old
could be on the loose in your neighbrohood if the Squad’s latest social
justice bill becomes law.
The bill to free all the fat criminals,
sponsored by Rep. Tlaib, Rep. Lee, and Rep. Pressley, and co-sponsored
by Rep. Ocasio-Cortez, Rep. Omar, and eight other Democrats, and
endorsed by Black Lives Matter, calls for a mass jailbreak to protect
criminals from the coronavirus.
The
existing wave of coronavirus criminal releases already helped boost
crime rates in major cities with double digit increases in homicides.
Robberies have shot up like a rocket with criminals stealing cars and
looting businesses while knowing they won’t be jailed.
But that’s not enough for the Squad. They want to free all the criminals. Especially the fat ones.
The
Dismantle Mass Incarceration for Public Health Act, introduced by Rep
Tlaib, would “require States and units of local government to certify a
commitment to release certain individuals from jails and prisons” and
their list includes anyone who’s over 55 years old, unhealthy, or obese.
Or as the bill puts it, has been “diagnosed with obesity”.
According
to the Department of Health and Human Services, anyone with a body mass
index (BMI) of 30.0 qualifies as obese. That means a 5'6 rapist who
weighs 187 pounds, a 5'8 mugger who clocks in at 200 pounds, or one of
those fabled 6'0 and 225 pound gentle giants specializing in home
invasions would all be considered obese and in need of immediate
release.
The official obese ranking doesn’t actually mean fat.
The criminals that Tlaib, AOC, Omar, Lee, and Pressley want to unleash
on communities already swimming in a wave of horrifying crimes are above
a recommended healthy height to weight ratio. But maybe a good exercise
regimen of muggings, carjackings, and sexual assaults will get them
back to their fighting weight.
How many criminals would this actually set loose?
DOJ statistics
show that about
half of federal and state inmates have some sort of chronic condition:
15% have asthma, 10% have heart problems, and 9% have diabetes. All of
these conditions are on the Squad’s jailbreak bill’s release list. With
over 2 million prison inmates, if these statistics hold up, between
200,000 to 680,000 criminals could be set loose.
But wait.
The
majority of prisoners, 74%, were overweight, obese, or morbidly obese.
Over a quarter hit the obese BMI numbers. That would mean freeing at
least half a million fat criminals.
In addition to freeing fat
criminals, Squad members also want to free “seniors”. And by “seniors”
they mean any criminal who has at least reached the tender age of 55
years old.
The unabomber, the BTK killer, and the Son of Sam, all
of whom are still in prison today, and over the age of 55, would
qualify. Sadly Charles Manson, Ted Bundy, and Jeffrey Dahmer are no
longer alive to take advantage of Tlaib, AOC, and Pressley’s generous
offer to free them all.
Even those serial killers who aren’t over 55 could take advantage of the mentally ill clause.
Fat
rapists and pedophiles in their fifties are supposedly more at risk
from the virus, but why are depressed muggers, anxious con artists, and
schizophrenic serial killers more at risk?
This isn’t about
saving criminals from an imaginary threat. Socialists like freeing
criminals. Stealing private property and terrorizing the public is just
socialism by another name.
In addition to freeing all fat
criminals, any criminal over the age of 55, and crazy criminals, the
Tlaib, Pressley, and Lee bill would also free any criminals who have
moderate asthma or diabetes, or can be considered diabled. Since the
disabled category covers everything from back injuries to depression to
irritable bowel syndrome to dermatitis, that’s a free pass.
Some
30% of criminals in federal and state prisons reported hypertension.
That alone would release 600,000 criminals from prison. At this rate a
criminal would have to work not to be freed.
The Squad bill also
provides for freeing any criminal whom a review board determines is
"unlikely to pose a substantial risk of causing bodily injury or using
violent force against another individual". That would cover any inmates
who weren’t convicted of physical assault.
And that would free all the thieves, robbers, drug dealers, and looters.
Countless
criminals have already been freed under this category to protect them
from the virus leading to plenty of violent assaults even though the
criminals were said to be low risk. Not to mention massive amounts of
robberies, car thefts, and the wave of Black Lives Matter looting.
Even the most modest estimates of the criminal population released would be a million.
The
Dismantle Mass Incarceration for Public Health Act would also free all
illegal aliens being held on an ICE detainer because not all criminals
can be considered free until the violent illegal aliens being held for
deportation are also released to rob, beat, and kill Americans.
How
long would AOC, Omar, and Tlaib like the country's criminals to be
roaming the street? The bill would apply until the President declares
the "end of the COVID-19 national emergency".
Americans get two
national emergencies for the price of one. If the coronavirus doesn’t
get you, the criminals freed by AOC, Omar, Tlaib, Lee, Pressley, and
other House Democrats will.
Democrats and their media have spent
the duration of the pandemic shouting that prison inmates were most at
risk of catching the virus and had to be freed immediately. If they had
dedicated a fraction of the same effort to protecting another vulnerable
institutionalized population, nursing home residents, the pandemic
death toll would be a fraction of what it is.
Instead, New York,
California, and other states freed massive numbers of criminals to
protect them from the virus, while forcing nursing homes to take in
infected patients resulting in the deaths of tens of thousands of
nursing home residents. The Democrats who claimed that keeping inmates
locked up would be a death sentence, delivered an actual death sentence.
And the Democrats are still shouting we have to save the criminals before they all die.
“This pandemic should not be a death sentence for anyone,” Rep. Tlaib clamored.
"This virus should not be, and doesn’t have to be, a death sentence for incarcerated individuals," Rep. Lee whined.
So far
149 federal inmates, out of 124,538 total, have died from the virus.
Or as CBS News called the 100th federal prison death back in July, a "grim milestone".
The
Los Angeles Times breathlessly reported last month that the 79th prison
inmate had died of the virus in California. As of now, the number
appears to be up to 88. Another “grim milestone”.
The
Chicago Sun Times agonized last month that an 8th inmate had died in
the Cook County jail from the virus. That’s a weekend’s worth of
shootings in Chiraq by the same cast of criminals that Illinois and Cook
County had dumped back on the streets to rob, rape, and kill.
More
people get shot in Chicago by criminals in one weekend than the total
number of criminals who have died of the virus in custody. Since many of
the victims are also criminals, if the Democrats were really concerned
about keeping them safe, they would keep them locked up.
Criminals are much less likely to die of coronavirus than of a bullet. Keep them safe behind bars.
The
entire prison coronavirus hoax has led to countless people being
killed, raped, and robbed by a rampaging population of criminals who
were set loose to keep them safe from the virus.
AOC, Tlaib, Omar, and the rest of the gang want to multiply that by ten thousand times.
Murder
rates are already doubling in some places. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio
Cortez, Rep. Omar, Rep. Tlaib, and other Democrats want to see them
increase a thousandfold. Even as some Democrats claim that they want to
back away from pro-crime policies like police defunding, plenty of
Democrats, not just the Squad, are happy to propose freeing a million
criminals.
And that’s not going to change until Republicans actually tell the public what’s at stake.
