How sweet of you to ignore “unsubstantiated” as distinguished from substantiated opinions.
All you offer are unsubstantiated and absurd opinions.

They are not “liberals” or “progressives”. They are Socialist Revolutionaries, the very kind who took over Cuba and now rule over the people with an iron fist.
Facts and citations don’t help when they don’t prove your point.
I fully admit my opinions are unsubstantiated, though not absurd. The issue is that you think your opinions are substantiated when they aren’t.
There you go again, making stuff up and posting falsehoods about me.
The truth is, I do substantiate my “opinions” as I did HERE, and especially HERE confirming Bragg type policy results in more crime from criminals who would otherwise be locked up where they belong.
The bottom line is, unlike you, I do substantiate my “opinions” and provide evidence. So, stop making crap up!

Our socialist revolutionaries are known for accusing others of what they themselves are guilty of.
How do those to articles about bail reform substantiate your opinion that alternatives to incarceration are going to lead to an increase in crime or that Bragg is a socialist revolutionary?
So now you employ the old and tired stupid debating trick of bait and switch.

Why have a written constitution approved by the people if those who it is designed to limit and control are free to make it mean whatever they wish it to mean?
What did I bait with and what did I switch it to? I’m going off the stuff you complained about in this thread, especially in your OP. I’m not trying to be unfair to you.
In regard to your assertions I posted the following:
I do substantiate my “opinions” as I did HERE, and especially HERE confirming Bragg type policy results in more crime from criminals who would otherwise be locked up where they belong.
The bottom line is, unlike you, I do substantiate my “opinions” and provide evidence. So, stop making crap up!
Yes, that is what you wrote earlier, to which I responded:
…and you accused me of baiting and switching. So instead of just repeating what you wrote earlier why not answer my question: What did I bait with and what did I switch it to?
Give it a break. What I posted above was not intended to have anything to do with “alternatives to incarceration” or “that Bragg is a socialist revolutionary” nor did I mention that in the post, but is now your current bait and switch nonsense.

Is that not one of the central points of his memo? Sure, it mentions bail reform, but my read of it is much more a focus on sentencing and exploring alternatives to incarceration. Are you telling me your OP is only concerned with bail changes, something that NYC did before Bragg came into office?
And you yourself have brought up “socialist revolutionaries” numerous times in this thread applying it willy-nilly to who ever you have a disagreement with. You probably think I’m a “socialist revolutionary” despite the fact that I’m not a socialist. If you don’t want to put something on the table for discussion, then don’t bring it up.
Are you pulling my leg? How does:
answer this question:
There you go again with bait and switch. Those two links were directly in response to your comment to me:
“The issue is that you think your opinions are substantiated when they aren’t”.
The links I provided substantiated specific opinions of mine, contrary to your above assertion about me.
And now, I will take previous advice given to me about feeding a troll.

For starters thats not a question, thats a statement.
And I responded to your response pointing out that your links don’t substantiate the opinions you have expressed. Are you going to actually explain how those articles on bail reform substantiate your opinions on the outcome of Bragg’s memo despite the fact that only part of his memo was about bail? Or are you just completely throwing away your OP and now focusing just on bail?
And now, I will take previous advice given to me about feeding a troll.
What a strange world we live in where I’m the troll for trying to continue the conversation with a person who just pastes the same thing over and over again.
Getting back to the subject of the thread,
Since the soft on criminal type of policies were adopted in NYC a few years back, which are not only being advocated by Alvin Bragg, but being enhanced, criminal activities in NYC’s subways is getting out of control. And so much so that NYC media is advising
NYC subway crime: Officials urge riders to stay alert amid rise in muggings and robberies - ABC7 New York
“But robberies are up too - 18% percent compared to this time last year, as ridership has doubled.”

This is what happens when nitwits in government coddle criminals.

The Democrat Party Leadership, once an advocate for hard working American citizens and their families, is now their worst nightmare.
Neither of those articles state that the increase in crime was caused by criminal reform policies. How can you be sure its policies that are leading to an increase and not other factors? Life is different then it was a few years ago before Covid. Correlation doesn’t equal causation.
