Reply to comment by [deleted] in DA Alvin Bragg’s staffer hangs up on ‘bulls–t’ congressional phone call by Gaytaino

I mean, say what you want positive about Bragg, I am sure there are plenty of things. But to say there is nothing negative about him? I mean cmon, he doesn't apply the law equally, or in some cases AT ALL. That is a negative. It just feels so disingenuous.

Then the whole "people who aren't even from this country," like who actually gives a fuck about their opinion and why would they be following what in reality is a low level political person in the US? I could not name one judge from another country off the top of my head, and don't care to. Not my lane, does not matter at all.

just because you don't give a shit about material culture and holding the powerful to account doesn't mean anybody else does. within the realm of anthropology, museums and cultural work, the man has an extremely good reputation right now. I'm all for decriminalization of sex work and the end of cash bail though, I guess if you like people getting locked up before even getting to see a jury or "crimes" that don't hurt anyone, we're not gonna see eye to eye.

Tell me you don’t understand without telling me you don’t understand.

Super excited that all twelve of the anthropologists are happy with him. That probably makes you very happy while Bragg shirks his duties on real crimes including things like DWI and murder. Those are quality of life crimes that impact the day to day lives of folks. Most people could not care less about some item from Egypt that might have been stolen a hundred years ago.
