There’s been a lot of talk from some folks about emptying the jails
to help curb the spread of coronavirus. It’s proven to be not the best
policy for obvious reasons. In New York City, some of these inmates were accused of violent crimes. They were re-arrested and then re-released as well. It’s a vicious cycle. This is what was reported back in June (via NBC New York):
“We’re
continuing to see people get arrested over and over and let right back
out. And it really defies common sense,” NYPD Commissioner Dermot Shea
said in an interview with NBC New York.
Of approximately 2,500
defendants sprung from Rikers early because of COVID safety planning, at
least 250 have been arrested again since, according to Michael LiPetri,
chief of Crime Control Strategies for the NYPD.
Chief LiPetri
tells NBC New York the NYPD did not object to releasing older
defendants, nor those with underlying medical conditions. But he says
the consequences of the larger-scale release of prisoners are now
showing up in the arrest data, with those 250 re-offenders being
arrested 450 times so far during the pandemic.
NO DEAL: Democrats Hold Americans
Hostage, President Takes Action, Will Extend Unemployment Benefits
Unilaterally By Geller Report Staff
Excellent. Speaker Pelosi must not be allowed to leverage the
COVID-19 crisis, to bail out cities and states that have been ruined by
the Democrat Party. This is another brilliant checkmate that President
Trump has inflicted against the dirty Dems, who are accustomed to
negotiating with weak Republicans who give into their demands. Those
days are over. Trump is rolling. The Dems are heading for a serious
beating in November.
The Democrats are waging war against the American people using COVID,
BLM, lockdowns, draconian restrictions — to create as much misery and
sorrow as their power allows.

It's
getting worse folks...getting worse from coast to coast...as anarchy
and insurrection now seems to be more commonplace in Democrat controlled
cities where police hands are not only being tired...handcuffed is
more like it...but where “stand down”
orders are being issued and reassignments being given to officers
almost on a daily basis. And know the mayors of these Democrat cities do
have a specific goal in mind...a goal not just to defund the police but
to actually disband the police, thus surrendering America's cities to
the very miscreants and thugs who believe that “everything you have is ours and it's ours for the taking”...therule of law be damned.
So
with many still not understanding let alone seeing what's happening
around them, these but three examples do remain in plain sight. And
let's start on the east coast where about a week and a half ago, New
York City's uber liberal Democrat Mayor Bill De Blasio spent more what
should have been time at work painting yet another BLM mural on one of
the city's “mean streets;”
reassigning 25 police officers from their appointed rounds to protect
said street mural; while completely ignoring the fact that 10 more New
Yorker's had been shot in the Bronx, Brooklyn, and Manhattan in the two
days just prior to his being a street artist once again.
In fact, on August 3rd, the NYPD released its latest crime figures, which shows there was a 177% increase in the city's “year-over-year”
number of shooting incidents...shootings as opposed to actual
murders...with July alone seeing 244 shootings as compared to July
2019's 88 shootings. And the yearly number of shootings also increased
by 72% in the year-to-date, with NYC seeing 450 shootings by the end of
July 2019 compared to 772 by this past July's end...and the year isn't
even over yet.
Now as for murder itself, the “Big Apple” under
De Blasio's watch has already seen as of the end of July, 54 murders as
compared to 34 murders in July 2019, along with a 30% year-to-date rise
to 235 murders as opposed to 181 murders in 2019...again with the year
not even over yet.
But
hey, in Bill De Blasio's eyes it's more important to protect a racially
instigated, leftist driven political statement painted on the street
than to allow “New York's Finest”
to do their jobs...as in to assure public safety and fight crime. But
with NYC's police department now having a hard time doing its job what
with their already having seen their budget cut by 16%...as in $484 million
being cut from this year's $6 billion operating budget with another $354
million being transferred over to other city agencies...De Blasio is
working his way up to his promised $1 billion police budget cut along with
his canceling the what was scheduled hiring of 1,163 new officers.
And
to add insult to injury...to rub his contempt for the police into their
faces...De Blasio recently posed for yet another self-promoting photo-op, this
time seeing him standing under a street sign at what is Jamaica Avenue
and 153rd Street, a crime ridden Queens neighborhood where police are
seen as the enemy and where a street...not that long ago...was co-named, “Black Lives Matter Avenue.” And the (orange) mask wearing De Blasio can be seen with his "peeps" pointing up at the sign...a photo he can now add tohis
ever expanding photo-op album of him pandering to blacks for their
votes...that or proving to his black wife that he sees his white skin
color to be as black as she wishes her black skin color was white...if
you know what I mean.
So
at the same time this was going on in De Blasio's NYC, the mid-west
city of Chicago saw a 139% increase in overall murders for the month of
July, with actual documented shootings up 75%. And August has started
off with a literal “bang”
as well for in the first two days of this month alone at least 27 more
Chicagoan's were shot...the vast majority of them being blacks shot by
their fellow blacks...with seven of them killed, including a 9-year-old
boy who just went outside his house to play with his friends. But to
put those percentages in more simple yet horrific terms, by the time
July in Chicago came to an end 212 innocent mostly black children had
been shot, with 36 of them shot dead...and none of the victims were shot
by the police what with Chicago's police previously having been told by
Mayor Lori Lightfoot “not to use force” (deadly or otherwise) against the anything but peaceful protesters...protesters who actually were rioters.
And the mayor's excuse for this rise in shooting and kill numbers was that Chicago was being “inundated” with guns from “outside states,” and that “it's the fault of states that havevirtually no gun control, no background checks and no ban on assault weapons,” a
stretching of the truth to such a degree as to be but the fabrications
and the delusions of yet another gun-hating, BLM supporting black Democrat
mayor. And adding to this is that Chicago's six Democrat aldermen
continue to push the city to cut its police budget by about $1.8 billion
by the end of this year with two ridiculous excuses being given. First,
they claim that by doing so the city will see public programs put into
place that will help reduce crime in the long run and second, why not
cut the police force since the police do not make Chicago citizens safer
because their fundamental role is “managing inequality, not improving public safety.” Delusional...completely delusional liberal mind-speak.
And
then there's Seattle, a west coast city that has taken their hatred of
the police to the next level by not only speaking about defunding the
police, but who have actually worked out a plan where defunding actually
turns into disbanding. And they plan to do so by slashing what remains
of this year's police budget to such a degree that the police will
become monetarily powerless to do their jobs. And they're doing this in
an ever so sneaky way by turning the proposed police budget cuts into
legislation that the Democrat controlled City Council can vote on...and
we already know how that vote will go...now don't we.
Coming
in the form of 39 amendments that will be in addition to
the $20 million in monetary cuts already proposed to the city's police budget
by its Democrat Mayor Jenny Durkan...this what is a resolution, also sees by
the end of 2021 the creation of a civilian led “Department of Community Safety and Violence Prevention”...adepartment
comprised of feel good kumbaya sorts who would now handle the majority of
calls the SPD currently does. Now scheduled to be voted on Monday,
August 10th, these proposed cuts are more like a road map to disaster
I'd say...but hey... BLM and Antifa miscreants and thugs must be counting
down the days until Seattle is theirs for the taking.
And BLM and Antifa also have another ally in the absolutely ludicrous words of yet another City Council member, one Debra Juarez, who said, “We
may be the first city in the country to actually undertake this and
deconstruct something that has weaponized and hurt people of color since
the founding of this country.” Guess to her and other Seattle City Council members only “people of color” matter...as she and the others forget that white is a color too.
So
while the above stated numbers do seem quite shocking in and of
themselves, these newest numbers do show how truly encompassing the
situation “We the 'law-abiding' People” find ourselves in today really is. And now add in that according to a recent report in the Wall Street Journal,
2020 has to date seen homicides, shootings, and gun violence in the 50
largest U.S. cities rising, with murders increasing by a staggering 24%
to 3,612. And 36 of those 50 cities have seen at least a 10% rise in
homicides...a rise in homicides as these city's police are being
prevented from not only arresting folks after the fact, but prevented
from doing their job of stopping the violence and mayhem before it not only takes
hold but spreads.
And
while most of those 50 cities do show a numbers drop in robberies and
burglaries, that's something that can easily be explained and it has not
a thing to do with criminals suddenly turning over a new leaf or with
police apprehending those committing said crimes, but has everything to
do with folks being home due to COVID-19...the ever so nasty little
virus delivered to us courtesy of China.
Simply, the fact is that when
people are sheltered at home
they themselves can protect their belongings against acts such as
burglary and robbery, and thus those numbers will naturally go down. And
besides, the rioters and looters have already “appropriated” most of the things they want with few folks stopping them from doing so.
So
while that particular statistical drop is a good thing there is yet
another good thing that has come from the miscreants and thugs acts of
anarchy and insurrection...and it's that gun sales have increased
overall...legal gun sales that is...guns bought by “We the People”
to protect those we love and the things we worked hard for what with
police hands being tied...thus giving new meaning to the old saying, “Behind every blade of grass.”
And
in a way we can thank the city of Minneapolis for the increase in gun sales as it's ground
zero for all our police 'George Floyd' initiated woes...where city
officials actually told residents to “be prepared to surrender their possessions to armed criminals” if and when their homes are being robbed. Talk about walking into a hornets
nest...it's a sure fire way for innocent folks to get killed. No wonder in July
alone 1,795,602 guns were sold nationwide...an increase of 133%
over July 2019...with FBI background checks showing that in this
year-to-date almost 10 million firearms of all kinds have been sold,
especially to first-time buyers.
Simply what this means...what these firearm purchasing numbers reflect...is that folks are
now being forced by current “circumstances”
to possibly have to do for themselves and their families what the police are not being
allowed to do...as in not only getting the bad guys off our cities street, but keeping them off as well.
And
the ones who are to blame for this entire mess are the liberal Democrats, as they see the still
ongoing anarchy and insurrection as their last chance to turn the
November election in their favor, after all impeachment didn't work, the
Chinese virus hasn't worked so far, so in the Democrats eyes maybe their deliberately
orchestrated and still unchecked violence will. But thankfully, in the
end it also won't work as rising crime numbers, ever increasing
violence, and escalating kill numbers are igniting a fire within the hearts of law abiding
Americans from across both racial and political lines.
Once again it very well might come down to this, “Behind every blade of grass”...case closed.
