02.英文原文David Sacks@DavidSacksIT’S YOUR STATE, GAVIN In 2014, then-California Attorney General Kamala Harris and Lt. Governor Gavin Newsom supported Prop 47, which was fraudulently billed as the “Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act.” In reality, Prop 47 downgraded many theft and drug offenses from felonies to misdemeanors. In combination with the unwillingness of Soros DAs (like LA district attorney George Gascon) to punish misdemeanors, the law effectively decriminalized shoplifting under $950. Note that shoplifters could steal much more than $950 by stacking up as many instances as they wanted. In practice, the entire law enforcement system became demoralized since, in the rare case a thief was apprehended, the revolving door of justice would ensure their rapid release. The dramatic viral videos of “flash mobs” taking down large capers in plain sight are the culmination of a law enforcement system that has learned helplessness. In parallel, the relaxation of drug offenses made California a nation-wide haven for addicts and traffickers alike. For his part, Newsom welcomed the new arrivals by inviting the nation’s homeless to pursue “new beginnings” and “California dreams.” Newsom also allocated tens of billions of dollars to the “homeless-industrial complex.” NGOs distributed free needles and cash subsidies to addicts, making the crisis worse. Of course the bigger the problem got, the more NGOs got paid. In turn, the Democratic machine could expect the support of these loyal foot-soldiers at election time. Now the people of California have had enough. According to a new poll, 71% are supporting Prop 36 to reverse Prop 47 and stiffen the penalties for theft. Newsom says he was shocked to read the poll. “I was wondering what state I was living in.” Let me help you out, Gavin: it’s the state you created. https://x.com/endwokeness/st/EndWokeness/status/1837194867262558211/video/1…339.3K Views
