Two democrat politicians were car jacked ……..the policies they and their party support create our gun and violent crime rates………will they learn that releasing violent criminals over and over again is just dumb and dangerous?
I doubt it…..
However, on Wednesday, two Democrat politicians, one in Philadelphia and one in Chicago, were mugged by reality when both were carjacked. Fortunately, neither was hurt but I hope it was a learning experience for both of them.

Kimberly Lightford is the Democrat majority leader in the Illinois Senate and a member of her state’s Legislative Black Caucus. To her credit, she was never an ardent proponent of property destruction nor was she calling to defund the police. However, she was at the forefront of the movement to reform policing in her state, which included eliminating cash bail (effective January 2023), giving a pass for people who vanish for 48 hours or less while on electric monitoring, and increasing liability for individual police officers.

In Philadelphia, Mary Gay Scanlon, a House member from Pennsylvania, was also carjacked in broad daylight: ——
As was the case with Lightford, Scanlon also joined the police reform movement after George Floyd’s death.

It turns out that, when you do away with bail, shrink police departments, make police officers feel unsafe, have prosecutors who refuse to prosecute, and have both prosecutors and judges who are loath to place even hardened or extremely violent criminals in prison, you end up with an extraordinary escalation in violent crime in all of America’s Democrat cities.

Did two Democrat politicians just get mugged by reality?
One of the longstanding problems with Democrat governance is that Democrat politicians enact policies that affect people other than themselves. Thus, affluent professional Dems living in chi-chi gentrified enclaves aren't the ones who ...
