Seattle Mayor it's Better to Hear an 8 Time offender's Story than to Jail Him

[Meister]

Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell is facing intense backlash after saying during a televised debate that he would prefer to learn the “life story” of an eight-time criminal offender rather than pursue jail time—a statement that quickly set off alarm bells among public safety advocates and political opponents.

Asked how many offenses should trigger jail time, Harrell dismissed punitive responses and framed the issue as a call for compassion.

“When this person is committing six or seven crimes, I don’t know his or her story,” Harrell said on stage. “Maybe they were abused as a child. Maybe they’re hungry. But my remedy is to find their life story to see how we can help. First, I have no desire to put them in jail, but I need to protect you, and that’s the calibration that we have,” he continued.

Do you want to understand the mindset of these officials? Want to know why crime isn't coming down
in the big blue liberal cities??? Right here you can read and listen about the problem. This guy is concerned for the
perpetrator and not the victims.

 

[FireFly]

The average offender comits about 150 thefts for each time they get caught. So this mayor isn't concerned about the 1,200 victims each criminal leaves in their wake. He is only concerned about the thief's feelings.

Notice how he mentions American citizen (victims) almost as a footnote, at the end, after he's said all this goofy, pro-thug stuff...

I love hearing life stories... always had an interest in what makes people tick and etc... But not if it means letting these violent thugs out on the street to harm more people. And I don't recall the law in any state or city saying that if a person has a bad childhood, that excuses him/her from evil deeds. The law is there for a reason. It needs to be followed, for crying out loud

Once you realize democrats are traitors working with America's enemies to intentionally collapse America and usher in the great reset, suddenly everything they support and say will make perfect sense and you won't think they are dumb or crazy.

Democrats = traitors

If you hated the people in the community, you would encourage and protect criminals there.

Democrats = traitors

I'm sure Harrell's words are going to deter crime in the once great city of Seattle.
If anything, the thugs know that they just need to conjure up a boo-hoo story and
they'll be committing more crimes by nightfall.

TOXIC EMPATHY
This insanity from the demented LEFT has to be publicly recognized as DANGEROUS and a DIRECT THREAT to society.

Democrats = traitors

They are both dumb and crazy because they, as always, do not see the long term consequences of ... anything, even destroying their own country.

That is like someone complaining that his house is (whatever... too small, too whatever) so he is going to burn it down.

If that is not dumb or crazy, what is?

It's not a direct threat to society

It IS definitely destructive, not just a threat of destruction.

The damage has been w/ us for decades.

Perhaps you live under a rock, and don't recognize the irony in your post.
We're at the threshold.
"One way or another, this darkness got to give."

Yes, I live under a rock.

How did you know?

 

[forkintheroad7]

Can you imagine legislators proposing a law that said "If you've had a hard childhood, you will not be prosecuted half as much as those who have had a good onet?"

You almost want to LOL

And then there is this:

Why bother proposing such a law when the dims are already living by that retarded (not enacted) law anyway?

 

[SeaMajor7]

Yes, I live under a rock.

How did you know?

You dismissed the "destruction of society" that we ALL are witnessing before our eyes.
The DELIBERATE soft on crime is a DISEASE in this country today brought to the general public by Marxist subversives that are DA's, judges, and Prosecutors that want to sow mayhem, and what has been become recently obvious, MURDER.

And, all that is just the "intro" of what Soviet Russia's infiltration of Marxist Leninist BULLSHIT into our edu, media, and governance all throughout the 20th century has done to our society.

But then, Marxism DIED in Russia circa 1991, and Metalica played Moscow.

We are NOW dealing with the ROT >>>LEFT<<< behind.

I'm hopeful that we are finally in recovery mode, but not sure.
What a freakin mess these retarded assholes made of themselves all the while Humanity was advancing in leaps and bounds. It's been a CENTURY of this madness.

All driven by envy and other EMOTIONS.
All devoid of LOGIC.

End rant//

The sad part is the person running against him is in full agreement so even if this shithead loses Seattle has still fucked themselves. Welcome to ranked choice voting, where you get a retard or a full retard.

 

[1srelluc]

One thing about a convict in prison, he will tell you all the stories you care to hear.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Here we go. Seattle just voted for this. Communists hate the citizens. They will take it from you with force.

 

[JWBooth]

The NY Mayor is a fun distraction, Seattle is the bellwether for seriously fucked up shit.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Yeah, this is what seattle elected. Lol. Now they have to lie in that nasty bed.
