Loitering is not a problem if you are not the business owner who is running that 7-11.

I bet you would not think it over policing if a large congregation of homeless people were permanently camped out on your door steps, throwing their refuge indiscriminately, playing loud music, dealing and using drugs in the open. As much as I empathize with the homeless, I don’t see the logic of allowing them free reign to what are public spaces. How does it help them?

The well to do liberals who live in the heavily policed suburbs like Montclair and Glen Ridge and pay high property taxes for the privilege of not having to deal with the unwashed masses tell you that the homeless must be allowed to do as they please. They assuage their own guilt this way because it cost them nothing to so. It’s the poorest and most disadvantaged members of our society who pay the price for the failed policies they push.

Crime is up 30% at a time when the nation is at full employment. Only the delusional can be tricked into believing that “criminal justice reform” in the form of eliminating cash bail and setting dangerous repeat offenders out on the streets to victimize the poor and defenseless is a net good to society.

The truth is much more hard to digest. Criminal justice reform is the “cheapest” wokie policy that the dems could come up with to placate a base that they have been cheating for decades. Not higher minimum wages or better public education or publicly funded health care or higher education. All of that would cost their donors and their favored constituents; the laptop class to much. So they give you a policy that is failing even before it’s has been fully rolled out.

There is a housing crisis in this country and both parties are busy funding a proxy way with Russia that has us at the brink of nuclear catastrophe! 100billion for Ukraine and there are homeless people right now forced to take a shit in Peter Francisco park🤦🏾. Not one “progressive” opposes the war!! Tells you all you need to know about their priorities.

Is it any wonder that the Republicans, despite being a morally bankrupt party of reactionaries and outright loonies has managed to pull away upwards of 15% of the black and Latino vote!

More and more people are clueing in to the simple fact that the so called progressives don’t give one fuck for the people at the bottom beyond using them as cheap votes and canon fodder in the culture wars, but hey; you keep blaming the police; getting rid of the police is the solution we all deserve.
