Bill Cosby is free because the system worked, not because he is innocent.

Leftist policies aren’t helping crime and Dems are trying to find a new narrative.

And California is a crap show and they are starting the second act.

 

Justice Can Suck

In a surprise ruling, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court threw out the conviction of sexual assault against a woman known as Andrea Constand. Cosby was convicted of drugging and having sex with the woman when she was unable to consent. Cosby, apparently, had done this multiple times throughout his life but the statute of limitations prevented him from being convicted by more women.

This is what happened:

• During the investigation, the initial District Attorney said that they could not try Cosby for the crime for lack of physical evidence. It would turn out to be a he said/she said case.
• Cosby was told he would not be tried. This eliminates the 5th Amendment protections.
• Cosby was being sued by the woman and testified in the civil trial. He admitted doing what he was initially accused of.
• A new prosecutor took over and used Cosby’s testimony in the civil trial against Cosby in a new criminal trial.
• This violated his 5th Amendment rights. Kind of an easy call.
• The other issue that should have been handled by the judge during the criminal trial was the testimony of the other women who accused Cosby. This should have been stopped because it is not evidence and is prejudicial.
• Cosby was convicted and sentenced to 3-10 years. He has already been through a parole hearing after two years and was denied.
• The case finally go to the state supreme court which overturned the case due to prosecutorial misconduct.
• Cosby cannot be tried again because of double jeopardy.

After he was released, Cosby and his representatives made a statement. It was a pretty silly statement:

Couple things about this:

• Bill Cosby is not innocent. He got off on a technicality.
• The prosecution bungled this thing from the start.
• This shows that the #MeToo movement probably influenced the court system.
• Though it is not fair because Cosby is guilty, the system worked. Due process was violated by an over anxious DA and Cosby was let go. Remember that this could happen to you and you may be innocent.

Gaslighting

The Left is in trouble. Crime is out of control and, suddenly, their talk of defunding the police is becoming very unpopular. They have decided that they need to take a different route on this defunding the police thing. Best way to do that is start lying.

There are a few lies they are going to push. the first is the most idiotic. It’s the Republicans that are for defunding the police. Listen to Jen Psaki making this crazy proclamation:

Even Peter Duecy seems absolutely shocked by this statement. He sat there and just stared at her. He didn’t ask her another question about it until the next day and she just doubled-down on it.

Something to be aware of: American Rescue Plan did have some money for law enforcement. But it also had about $2 trillion on other garbage. There was no way Republicans, in their right mind, would have approved this bill. It was a garbage pork bill. Just because the Republicans passed on one good thing to get rid of a thousand bad things doesn’t mean that they are against the police.

But that’s not what the media is pushing. They bought Jen’s crap hook, line and sinker.

Jennifer Rubin of the Washington Post released an op-ed saying:

Needless to say, this was not embraced on Twitter:

Yeah, this crap isn’t going to fly. There are terabytes of images from Twitter that show nothing but Leftists screaming about getting rid of the police. What’s worse for them is that their policies are actually defunding the police.

This Broad Again

Lori Lightfoot, the horrid mayor of Chicago, has a better way of explaining crime.

What crime? There’s no crime here.

First, listen to this reporter’s question. It really attacks Lightfoot:

Wow:

• He points out that the crime in Chicago is insane.
• His cutting Lightfoot off is pissing her off.
• He lists several he profile crimes in the recent data.
• He shows how the culture has changed so much that they now call the “Shopping District” the “Homeless Encampment”.
• She cuts him off because he’s absolutely right about everything.
• Then he really lays into her with his question.

Her answer leads to a bigger “wow”.

• No, we have the facts.
• People are leaving the city in droves because of the alignment.
• 40% of residents have said they are going to leave Chicago and a substantial number have already left.
• She said the 32 businesses have open doors within Chicago. Question: How many have left? I bet there are more than 32.
• As far as crime going down, that is just a lie. Crime in Chicago is going up. Each weekend is averaging over 50 shootings! That’s per weekend not week. She’s just lying.

I also want to point something out and this is not a criticism. Lightfoot seems to be shaking a lot. Could she have a disorder of some kind like Parkinson’s Disease? I do not mean to make fun of her and I don’t wish that horrid disease on anyone but I have seen several interviews with her and her shaking is something I have noticed every time.

California Really Has It On Point

Why Not? It’s Not Their Money

San Francisco, unable to control their homeless problem has come up with an idea: create a city sponsored homeless encampment. The city of Los Angeles, that has over 60,000 homeless people, is watching with great interest.

• San Francisco has six city sanctioned homeless encampments throughout the city.
• The services offered include food, bathrooms, showers and community services such as placement programs.
• Other services that are not mentioned in the article include needle exchanges.
• The tents are kept separate for COVID reasons. This means there aren’t a lot of tents in one area (typically 20).
• There are no rules. The people could come and go as they wished. No consequences.

Of course, Jeff Kositsky who runs the Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing, blames the United States for the homeless problem. He said:

The dynamic on the streets “has to do with the failures of our brand of capitalism, institutional racism, a broken behavioral health system, and none of us who do this work, we’re not going to fix that. What we’re trying to do is manage a really deep systemic issue where homelessness is a very visual depiction of our failures as a society.”

Of course, it has nothing to do with the crappy policies of California and San Francisco that made leasing an apartment in California almost impossible.

At first, it was thought it would cost $2600 per person per month to keep these encampments. Now, with all the services and food, it has been found that it costs between $61,000-70,000 per tent, mostly because more people are living in them.

Good job, California! Why to spend money that isn’t yours!

This is how we fix this problem:

• First, it is not a right to live on the street making others lives miserable.
• There are three types of people on the street for the most part:
  • Drug addicts.
  • Mentally ill.
  • Those that like it.
• Those that live on the streets because they like it need to find another place.
• The other two do not need jails. Bring back the sanitarium system.

That’ll Help Too

A bill introduced by California state Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) that decriminalizes possession of psychedelic drugs in the state made progress Tuesday after he removed a potential date-rape drug from the legislation.

According to the Associated Press, people 21 and older can use:

• Mushrooms.
• Mescaline.
• LSD.
• MDMA (Ecstacy)

Wiener had to remove ketamine from the bill because it is commonly used as a date rape drug.

Wiener said:

“People’s lives are literally transformed because of these substances.” Fox News has reported regarding recent research into the use of “psychedelic drugs to treat depression, drug addiction, PTSD, and a range of other mental health afflictions.”

I’m not a fan of drug legalization:

• We have a lot of problems in our cities now because of drugs.
• There are no consequences. Drug addicts become defacto wards of the state using my tax payer money to support their addictions.
• Drug abuse is also lowering the standard of living for everyone, not just the drug addicted.
  • More accidents.
  • More homeless.

This is not going to fix California. It is going to get worse.
