FTA:

"Brown criticized what he said is the District Attorney’s Office’s policy on retail theft cases, saying Krasner “stopped prosecuting shoplifters” when the value of goods stolen is below $500."

Which Krasner's office never actually ever prosecutes people for. Retail was already on the ropes because of supply chain problems from Covid and the increasing prevalence of online retailers like Amazon. Policies like Krasner will effectively kill off what remains of retail because they're getting robbed blind now too. The shopping experience also sucks now too, everything from is locked up in those plastic cases and you have to wait for an associate to get everything off the shelf for you. All these policies that cater to criminals have reduced the average law-abiding citizens quality of life in many ways.

There shouldn't be any dollar amount attached to a toleration of shoplifting. It's not about the dollar value, it's about the principle. Shoplifting is a crime, and we shouldn't live in a society that encourages or tolerates it to any level.

"During Krasner’s tenure, the conviction rate in gun possession cases dropped from 63% in 2017 to 49% two years later. Krasner’s office has defended its record on illegal gun cases and said many factors contributed to the decline in convictions. He has also said law enforcement should prioritize shootings and homicides."

"Brown said Krasner believes prosecuting illegal gun cases is “a hostility towards impoverished people.” He added: “I think that’s bulls—.”

Here here!

How can you claim to be against all things gun-related because you care so much about gun violence and people dying, but then illegal gun prosecution actually goes down under your tenure?

On the driving equality bill, Brown had this to say:

"In addition to criticizing the DA, Brown said Tuesday that the city’s driving equality law — which aims to reduce racial disparities in police stops — is “a really bad bill.” The legislation, which took effect nearly a year ago, prohibits officers from stopping motorists solely for committing low-level offenses like driving with a broken taillight or an expired inspection sticker."

"Brown said it hinders violent-crime prevention, saying, “If you were going to do a drive-by shooting, what you would take is an unregistered car with tinted windows.” Having a registration that expired within 60 days is among the infractions included in the law, but the legislation does not include language on window tint."

I agree with him on this too. People have increasingly been driving like maniacs ever since this bill passed. Also it's another bill from the city that simply encourages lawlessness.
