  1. Black Lives Matter rioting in Rochester New York because a felon with 37 prior convictions was running down the street naked and the police placed a spit hood on him because he was spitting on officers.

    These rioters are just using any excuse to destroy property and create anarchy to disrupt the November 2020 elections in support of the Communist Democrat Party and Joe Biden.

    If you desire LAW and ORDER and lower taxes do NOT vote for the Communist Democrat Party or Joe Biden. They are trying to take America hostage.

  2. Yes q, your plan and petersuckers plan has been working out so well hasn’t it, over 1500 murders have been committed since petersuckers “restorative justice plan” started when she was elected prosecutor in 2011, it makes perfect since for your personal liberal fag agenda against what the 492,000 citizens really want. You don’t have the power or the right to change the laws against what the people want.

    We want law and order and too bad you won’t be around to finish your term as mayor. Buh and bye loser.

  3. Anyone think if we pay every hood rat 300K in repetitions the murders would stop...or increase?

    The black thug culture is a black problem, nothing to do with whty.

    Blacks keep each other down. If one tries to succeed they are tore down as acting White.

  4. The rate of recidivism is and has been very high. A prison stretch gives offenders a chance to reconsider their paths, but most often they don't. What Mayor Lucas is really proposing is to let the criminals go from felony crime to recidivism crime without the annoyance of a prison term in between.

  7. Quinton. I am in favor of our approach as long as we still lock up the criminals. Can we convert the 18th and Vine District into a City Jail???

  9. He might want to get a handle on the actual violence before he starts trying to figure out how to give all these criminals a free pass. Oh, and by the way he clearly has no clue what true restorative justice is.
