Decriminalizing Crime in Dallas
As discussed earlier, Houston is a great place to be a criminal. But Dallas isn’t bad either.
Dallas County District Attorney John Creuzot has set himself to the do-gooder task of “decriminalizing poverty” — a cloying euphemism for decriminalizing crime.
Creuzot says he’ll decline to prosecute theft of personal items worth less than $750 unless the theft was for financial gain. … And he’ll stop prosecuting most first-time marijuana offenses and some misdemeanors that he believes often stem from poverty.
I’m not sure how theft qualifies as not being for financial gain or what qualifies as a personal item, but it would appear that this constitutes at the very least a big step in the direction of legalizing shoplifting (not to mention porch piracy) in the nation’s 9th largest city.
Liberals who enjoy bellyaching about “food deserts” will love the way this lunacy drives stores out of poor neighborhoods. Soon we will be told that food is a human right that must be guaranteed by a federal takeover of all grocery and convenience stores so that they can’t move out of areas where the customers don’t pay. Progressives have to plan ahead for what’s next after President Bernie imposes Medicare for All.
