Manhattan DA: 'I don't understand the pushback' to lighter punishment for violent criminals Bragg expressed confusion at the pushback his lesser-sentencing plan has received from the public, saying, "This is going to make us safer. It's intuitive. It's common sense. I don't understand the pushback." Exceptions to Bragg's no-jail rule include murder, a crime that involves someone's death and felonies. Several serious crimes, such as some cases of armed robbery, are being reduced to misdemeanors. Bragg also vows to limit sentences to 20 years, even for murder convictions. Bragg's office will largely no longer prosecute trespass offenses, resisting arrest, subway and bus fare dodging and sex work. He is also reducing charges for stealing from stores or from home storage areas and drug dealing. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg appeared with Rev. Al Sharpton Saturday at the National Action Network Rally in New York to talk about his plans to reduce incarceration through lowered prison sentences and fewer arrests. "We said we were going to marry fairness and safety, and we laid out a specific plan," Bragg declared. "We put it on the website. We put it in print. And this week, after Jan. 1, we got down to work, and we are doing what we said we would do." MANHATTAN DA'S HALT TO PRISON SENTENCES FOR MANY CRIMES WAS BACKED BY JERRY NADLER, OTHER PROMINENT DEMOCRATS "We know that our first civil right is the right to walk safely to our corner store. But we also know that that safety has got to be based in our community and fairness. It cannot be driven solely by incarceration," Bragg told the audience. On his third day in office, Bragg sent a memo stressing "diversion and alternatives to incarceration," such as crisis intervention programs, instead of sending some criminals to jail. Bragg acknowledged in his speech to Sharpton's audience that crime – including violent crime — is skyrocketing in the city. "Gun crime is on the rise. Domestic violence is on the rise. We've got sexual assault. That's what was going on with the status quo. So we know we need a change to address that," Bragg explained. "And the way to do that is partner with traditional public safety methods, is to invest in our communities. Racial disparity’s rife in our system. We criminalize poverty every day of the week."
This is going to make us safer. It''s intuitive. It''s common sense. I don''t understand the pushback. 看了这句一本正经的瞎话，竟然真的有那么几秒钟怀疑是不是我自己的认知有问题。简直是当代的皇帝新衣，越是荒唐的话越是要当成common sense说出来。我准备也练习练习这个一本正经胡说八道的技能。

民主党 比较仁慈吧
学习 北欧 以仁慈为主
民主党比较先进吧
这个人思想很北欧风格啊
但是在美国可能难以照搬
美国贫富差距 比 北欧 大太多了
完全2 个世界
曼哈顿 是美国最好的地方啊
不要 坚持一下 下一次选举 绿卡和H1b都能投票了 到时候这么多华人肯定选出来执法严格的
哎。看看吧。 看看Eric adams怎么样吧
纽约 应该不会共和党
纽约 旧金山 都是 极其 民主党的地方
第一周蛮好的 很upbeat 但是这个Manhattan DA 真的是有点要命
白思豪 说他很成功啊
看楼上 有黑金支持 二 是今年纽约选举出来投票的人太少了 很多人跑路是一个重要原因
看了这句一本正经的瞎话，竟然真的有那么几秒钟怀疑是不是我自己的认知有问题。简直是当代的皇帝新衣，越是荒唐的话越是要当成common sense说出来。我准备也练习练习这个一本正经胡说八道的技能。
好奇，纽约的DA家住哪里呢？
真的吗，房东搬出去让房客霸占?
市长已经跟他谈话了，昨天新闻，他改口了， 说“如果，你拿枪再曼哈顿ROB 商店， 。。我们要起诉你们”。
