Is it just me? Am I the only one who sees that POLICE ALONE cannot reduce crime? Police catch the person who commits the crime. It is investigated and evidence is gathered. THEN it goes to the District Attorney to review and determine what charges can he applied.
What the police do is vitally important, but IT’S JUST THE BEGINNING. If the DA doesn’t prosecute then the action of the police is meaningless AND viewed as harassment. Get it?
The radical DA’s that are assigning no/low bail, no special circumstance penalties, or even decriminalization of drug possession/resisting arrest/etc., are doing this for the express purpose of demonizing the authority of the police. All of this is part and parcel straight out of the Marxist playbook with the end game being revolt against local authority paving the way to complete police state and the federal government takeover. If you think government police state won’t harass you, just look back:
1) China’s Mao killed 45 million of his own people
2) Russia’s Stalin killed around 20 million
3) Germany’s Hitler killed 35 million
If WE THE PEOPLE don’t stand up to this and get these radical leaders out of our local government positions then the America we once knew is gone. Just as Lincoln said, “America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.”
We’re almost there.
