Has anyone considered something like this?
Rioters are observed by multiple cameras and many of them can be identified...… the ones who get arrested are obviously identified. What if, once they are ID'ed, they are cited and that results in them being barred from any sort of government assistance? No EBT, no SNAP, no unemployment?
What if any outstanding debts of their's are called in as a result, such as student loans?
What if they are barred from getting a line of credit with any store or corporate entity, because why should those companies whose interests have been damaged and storefronts looted, extend credit to a rioter or looter?
What if they can't get an apartment in a decent neighborhood because it shows up on their background check that they like to burn property down? We don't like sex offenders in our neighborhoods, maybe we should keep these guys out too.
Just because some DAs are not willing to prosecute these folks doesn't mean there is no way to punish this behavior...… there is a lot of other stuff that the rest of us can do.
Maybe there are other ways to deal with these people than just putting bullets in them.
