Open Letter to All Politicians:
Please, hear what I am saying with an open mind. There is a terrible problem in this country. It is the Thugs, gang members, criminals, and sexual Predators who are not afraid of getting caught by the police. Most of them will be back on the street before the police complete the paperwork. If they don’t show up at court there is a warrant ordered for them. The police can not execute these warrants and when the criminal is caught they are released again.
This is one of many reasons criminals don’t care about the police. The criminal does care about the gangs. If a criminal runs afoul of a gang the gang will kill them. This is the only limiting factor in the rise of crime. The street in NYC where the Hell’s Angles have their headquarters is one of the safest in the city. While the Police & DAs have a light touch or ignore criminals the problem will only get worse. Mayor LaGuardia in NYC in the 60s called in the Black Panter’s leadership. The Panthers were correct in saying their communities were not safe due to crime. The mayor called the leaders in to talk about how they could help police their neighborhood. It worked. The Panthers found solid citizens from their communities and they passed the Police training and were assigned to the precincts where they grew up. This gave police an edge over the criminals. The new officers knew who is dangerous and who is not.
