Maybe D.A. Alvin Bragg should focus on you know, REAL crime. Just sayin’.
Sounds like there is a serious shoplifting issue in New York City … gosh, we’re shocked.
The New York Times (@nytimes) ~ Nearly a third of all shoplifting arrests in New York City last year involved just 327 people, the police said. Collectively, they were arrested and rearrested more than 6,000 times.

From The New York Times:
Nearly a third of all shoplifting arrests in New York City last year involved just 327 people, the police said. Collectively, they were arrested and rearrested more than 6,000 times, Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell said. Some engage in shoplifting as a trade, while others are driven by addiction or mental illness; the police did not identify the 327 people in the analysis.
The victims are also concentrated: 18 department stores and seven chain pharmacy locations accounted for 20 percent of all complaints, the police said.
Gosh, that seems important, yeah?
Byron York chimed in with a pretty epic takedown of the politically-driven Bragg:
Byron York (@ByronYork) ~ Hey -- this is something the Manhattan district attorney could look into! He's dedicating to showing that no man is above the law, and here are 327 people who appear to be above the law.
Well, I don't think Alvin Bragg is interested in enforcing the law, Byron ... well ... not against anyone who isn't a registered Republican, anyway.
Right?
He MIGHT want to look into that.
Corporal Punishment (@CplPunishment_) ~ There's a lesson here. It will not be learned.
Renée (@rightwingertoo) ~ "NYC has a brand." ~ Mayor Eric Adams.
It sure does ...
Indeed they do.
And it’s not a great one right now.
Well ... except for Chicago ... Los Angeles ... Baltimore ... San Francisco ... Portland ... Seattle ... and many other Democrat Plantations that are seriously competing with New York City for the title of "#1 Shithole in the United States."
