Liberal California Discovering Failure of Proposition 47
Crime has been minimalized, and normalized. No consequence, or a small consequence, encourages certain behaviors. Small crime is no longer a concern, the consequence is essentially gone, and so the numbers have skyrocketed.
Since Proposition 47 has gone into place, Los Angeles area property crime has risen 10.9% (burglaries, motor vehicle thefts, etc.). Violent crime, such as aggravated assaults and robberies, has soared 20.6%. Mayor Eric Garcetti told The Times those increases may be linked to Proposition 47.
The knuckleheads behind Proposition 47 also made it worse when it comes to illegal aliens. According to the L.A. Times, another law was also passed in 2014 which reduced the maximum misdemeanor sentence from 365 days to 364 days. Under federal immigration law, a noncitizen who is convicted of an offense punishable by 365 days or more can be deported. With many felonies now reduced to 364-day misdemeanors, some criminals who otherwise would have been deported get to stay.
Proposition 47 also took away a tool to fight sex crimes when it reduced the penalty for possession of dangerous date-rape drugs to a misdemeanor.
In other words, everything the Republicans said Proposition 47 would cause, and everything the Democrats swore was not true, came to pass. Now, the question is, are the Democrats willing to clean up the mess by strengthening laws regarding all crimes, or is the chaos exactly what they were hoping for?
