“Prosecution, however, by definition, takes place after a crime has occurred, and to truly make the District safer, we need to focus on stopping crime before it happens in the first place,” he added. “Prevention efforts cannot replace effective policing and prosecution, but are equally necessary in order to make D.C. safer now and in the long run.”
Typical conservative spin. Take a sentence out of context. And then get enraged.
He literally said “We cannot prosecute and arrest our way out of it.” and judging from the Dems stance on crime, thats what they think. It wasnt mispoken
To which the meaning of that, given the context, is “being a police state, arresting every one at the drop of a hat will not solve things, preventative measures will always be more effective at reducing crime.”
But that’s evidently too much context to understand, and strawmen args are more to speed for republicans.
Sounds like they gave her probation because she was making an insanity plea, because she had psychosis. That, and she was seemingly remorseful. Therefore they gave her probation.
Are you saying insanity pleas are invalid?
Either way, this has nothing to do with the DC AG or what he said. You clearly have no argument for that conversation so you just moved to the next.

There’s a level between police state and giving probation to murderers. Surely you can see the issue here.
What are you even talking about?

What does that have to do with this?
I was talking about the Democrats stance on crime
Sounds like they gave her probation because she was making an insanity plea, because she had psychosis. That, and she was seemingly remorseful. Therefore they gave her probation.

It’s what I was referencing. They literally gave probation to a murderer.
