The new policy is:

• Armed robbers who use guns or other deadly weapons to stick up stores and other businesses will be prosecuted only for petty larceny, a misdemeanor, provided no victims were seriously injured and there’s no “genuine risk of physical harm” to anyone. Armed robbery, a class B felony, would typically be punishable by a maximum of 25 years in prison, while petty larceny subjects offenders to up to 364 days in jail and a $1,000 fine

• Burglars who steal from residential storage areas, parts of homes that aren’t “accessible to a living area” and businesses located in mixed-use buildings will be prosecuted for a low-level class D felony that only covers break-ins instead of for more serious crimes. Those more serious crimes, class B and class C felonies, would be punishable by up to 25 and up to 15 years in prison respectively.

Up to 364 days in jail and $1000 fine for armed robbery?? Oh my gosh! That place will resemble Blade Runner by 2030. After my last visit to Philly, in 2019, I decided to write off all major metro areas. This type of insanity confirms my decision. I feel so bad for the law-abiding people in these ■■■■ holes.

What do you believe the minimum sentence for a first time offense of petty larceny armed with a weapon that doesn’t have a “genuine risk of physical harm” (no bullets, replica gun, etc) should be?

For armed robbery? Hell, 5 years minimum.

What if studies …

.

.

What if this, and what if that . . . What about simply following the law, put these criminals behind bars where they belong and where they can’t destroy the lives of hard-working citizens and their families who obey the law?

Because we aren’t all heartless monsters and believe some criminals deserve a second chance.

Which crimes that are covered by this memo are destroying lives and their families?

A second chance so they can immediately commit the same offenses once again, and against hard-working citizens and their families. Why are you so heartless for the victims of these crimes?

Stop with the misrepresentations.

You’re more than welcome to prove its a misrepresentation instead of posting the same video over and over again.

The videos confirm thousands upon thousands of dollars are looted. LINK

What exactly do you think that video from a year ago is proving?

The reported explained it in crystal clear language. Does it have to be put in crayon for you to understand what was said?

So in your world we should send all first time offenders to jail for life since they might commit the same crime again? That’s ■■■■■■ up.

Why are you so heartless for the victims of these crimes?

I’m not, believe it or not I can feel bad for the victims of the crime and also feel bad for the victims of an unjust criminal system.

@johnwk2

What’s the point of this image about bail?

Are you ever going to answer this?

@fallenturtle

Again, why would they lower grand larceny to petit larceny because the person has a weapon but otherwise leave it grand larceny if they don’t?

[Liberty323]

@fallenturtle

What if studies showed that for first time offenders 5+ years of incarceration was setting up the offender for greater chances of recidivism, more difficulty reintegrating in society, more broken homes, and a greater cost to the tax payers vs diversion and a fine?

Bought and paid for “studies” can be used to show anything. Armed robbery is anything but petty.

@fallenturtle

I don’t think “genuine risk of physical harm” works like that.

Who knows?

@fallenturtle

What about it?

The media and political left would brand the store owner a “racist” if he shot a minority who was using a real-looking gun for a robbery.

@TommyLucchese

It just shows how much upper middle class white people have hijacked the agenda. Actual people in hoods still want cops because they live in high crime areas.

Not that I agree with the memo 100% or that upper class white have no idea what it’s like.

But the DA who is suggesting these changes is a black dude who grew up in Harlem during the 80s.

Theoretically he should know what’s going on.

You feel the same way about, say, rural Virginians and their gun control opposition?

I thought one of the major arguments from the left is that firearm laws aren’t strict enough?

No, like not considering mowing down a bunch of people with a semiautomatic vs holding up a store with a Nintendo Zapper painted black to be the same.

Real gun with no bullets? Come on… that’s a stupid argument. Assume every firearm is loaded.

The video confirms looters and smash and grabbers were essentially immediately released and free to engage in more criminal offenses against the property of hard-working American citizens.

Additionally, the following image confirms thousands of these thugs, who are immediately released, are re-arrested for additional crimes against hard-working citizens and their families.

Are you really that obtuse to not comprehend and confirm what is put before your very eyes?

I see, so you’re moving the goal posts from sentencing to bail? And being dishonest by trying to pass the looting related to the riots as being the same as the type of crimes this memo is addressing? Tsk tsk.

But sure, lets talk bail and not the memo your OP is about.

Cash bail is a bad idea. Bail should be based on the chances of the offender to offend again, not how much money they have access to.

Yup. Fairly large number of pro 2A folks on the left, and growing every year.

We just don’t feel the need to fetishise guns like some on the right do.

So, you are obtuse and refuse to confirm the evidence establishing Alvin Bragg’s type of policy, which puts criminals back on the streets, results in those very criminals being re-arrested for additional crimes against hard-working citizens and their families. And you have the nerve to insinuate dishonesty on my part?
