You remember Boston Mayor Michelle Wu — she's the one who compiled a list of critics and gave it to the police. We know she's woke: Her office proudly held a holiday party that was meant exclusively for “electeds of color,” but the invitation was mistakenly sent to white councilors as well who weren't invited.
Hmmm ... Boston has a racist mayor who wants the BPD to be her very own Stasi but doesn't want them to arrest actual criminals.
So it's not surprising she's soft on crime as well. We've already been assured that traffic stops are racist, and some cities are refusing to prosecute thefts under a certain amount. Just a couple of weeks ago District Attorney Kim Foxx of Chicago said that she wouldn't pursue the case if illegal guns, drugs, or stolen property were found as a result of a routine traffic stop. But what are some other "crimes" that aren't worth prosecuting, at least in Boston? Let Wu elaborate:
Libs of TikTok (@libsoftiktok) ~ Boston Mayor
@wutrain said she would support a policy that refuses to prosecute the following crimes:
-shoplifting
-larceny
-disorderly conduct
-receiving stolen property
-driving with a suspended license
-breaking and entering with property damage
-wanton and malicious destruction of property
-threats
-minor in possession of alcohol
-marijuana possession
-possession with intent to distribute
-non-marijuana drug possession
Democrats want to protect criminals and put Americans in danger.
Has she seen what soft-on-crime DAs have done to blue cities like Boston? She has ... and she wants it for her city.
Mendy Howe (@MendyHowe12) ~ Walk your talk, @MayorWu . Lead by example, say, let the looters come to your house and let them loot it empty, and don't report it to the police. Then we'll know you are not simply virtue-signaling.
The Right King Todd (@RightKingTodd) ~ I read this an invitation to commit every one of those crimes on her property with no consequences, am I wrong?
We're certain she thinks this is "restorative justice" because the people most likely arrested are "of color." Not prosecuting these crimes should even out things in the justice system.
WannabeAnglican (@WannabeAnglican) ~ The coming consequences are rather predictable.
Paul A. Szypula (@Bubblebathgirl) ~ In other news, crime in Boston has just skyrocketed.
They'll claim that crime went way down since they've stopped arresting people.
Bob Dog (@BobDog19006) ~ What you permit, you get more of.
Ken van Wyk (@krvw) ~ Boston shop owners must be tickled pink.
Scott Sleepy DRSd his shares (@scott_sleepy) ~ So if both “breaking and entering with property damage” and “threats” are not crimes, does that by association make self defense in your home illegal?
kokomored (@kokomored1) ~ I’m sure any self-defense or personal protection will be fully prosecuted.
Back in December, Wu promised police reform that would "dismantle structures of systemic racism," like that gang database filled with people of color.
Frank DeScushin (@FrankDeScushin) ~ Mayor Wu also said she wants to abolish Boston's gang database. New York City Democrats proposed the same for their city. It's a growing trend that will make it more difficult for police to track criminals.
Dante (@DanteTheDon) ~ Not prosecuting criminals, endangering people that do follow the law, and encouraging shoplifting and robbery has worked out so well for Chicago I can see why Boston is following suit.
Julio Murillo (@JEM_el_tarasco) ~ Wow, Democrats really don’t care about law abiding citizens.
American AF (@iAnonPatriot) ~ Get out of Democrat cities!
De ... the Magic 8-Ball has been consulted regarding a further influx of former 'Assachusetts residents into New Hampshire ...
