AOC voters shooting each other

Is this the end of crime decline?

One of the reasons violence was reduced in New York was aggressive enforcement and prosecution of illegal guns. It’s not that cops aren’t willing to pursue illegal guns, it’s that politicians won’t let them. Elected officials, it seems, have less to fear from hundreds more people being shot than an viral instance of real or perceived police misconduct. Without political and prosecutorial support for effective (though by no means perfect) policing, the shootings will continue.

In June the NYPD disbanded the “anti-crime” units that were responsible for half of all gun arrests. Last week, cops made just 21 gun arrests, down 72% from same week of 2019. Mayor de Blasio stretches credulity when he claims the disbanding was the NYPD’s decision. Richard Brea, a respected precinct commander in the Bronx, resigned in protest.

Eventually AOC voters will demand the return of gun confiscation.  But the turn around time is about ten years or more.  There is a lack of cultural memory, AOC voters cannot remember that this is a repeat sequence. AOC has no clue, she thinks this is all a new phenomena.
