Progressives are going to lose New York to soaring crime
“The relentless chaos of the past few months shows that nobody cares about “progressive” issues, like bike lanes or a higher minimum wage, when crime is rising — all they care about is order. Multiple polls show: Voters’ main issue in this race is public safety.”
The (hard left) Nation: “NYC Progressives should fear an Eric Adams mayoralty.” Then again, Progressives made it possible. Chickens, welcome home to your roosts!
Reduce state aid for cop defunders?
As reported by WisPolitics.com, the Wisconsin State Senate voted on a bill that would reduce shared revenue for communities that reduce their spending on law enforcement while also backing measures that restrict the use of chokeholds by police officers and require officers to report colleagues who use excessive force.
Senate Bill 119 would reduce shared revenue for communities that reduce spending on the hiring, training and retention of law enforcement, fire departments or emergency medical responders.
Senate Minority Leader Janet Bewley (D-Mason) and bill co-sponsor Sen. Van Wanggaard (R-Racine) debate the issue.

I’m at a loss here. Protesters trespass, and homeowners who are apparently scarred, are the ones being charged?

Your loss is understandable because you didn’t comprehend the article. The police report listed the couple as the “victims”. The trespass charge was something the police might charge the protesters with because the ultra-rich neighborhood considers their streets as private property and they entered through a gate. (Nice digs huh) The 4th degree charge is against anyone protesting because they scarred the couple. Bottom line; no arrests, no damage, nobody hurt. Everyone walked away. Could have been very different if Ma and Pa Kettle started blasting away. The state has no gun laws so it could have been a great big shootout.

No, the Soros-funded district attorney wants the couple investigated for “violent assault” and “intimidation or threat of deadly force.

For some context, this thread documents how BLM in St. Louis deals with unarmed people. Contrast the media’s coverage of this incident with that of the homeowners.
