Reply to comment by dizzle_1212 in PA House GOP names its impeachment managers in effort to remove Philly DA from office by IamSauerKraut

The DA prosecuted crimes. Unless you believe putting everyone in jail is the answer to reducing crime, there is no way it’s his fault. Since the US incarcerates more people per population than any other country, I happen to think putting people in jail is not the answer. It is so much more complicated. Political, social and economic failures are more at fault but as lazy Americans we want an easy answer. So blame Krasner. I don’t and the people elected him twice! So the Rs can go pack sand. Grandstanding yet again

That and the police refusing to work because they simply don't like that the DA doesn't give them carte blanche to do whatever they want.

I don’t necessarily have a solution but same ole, same ole obviously doesn’t work. So someone trying something different certainly can’t hurt. But when it’s a broken society (lack of opportunity, wealth gap, etc) we need better leaders. Unfortunately, we have too many do nothing Republicans.
