In today’s episode of “This… Is CNN… The Most Trusted Name in News™”…
A CNN analyst — a former Philadelphia police commissioner and CNN senior law enforcement analyst, no less — serves up a perfect example of why CNN’s ratings continue to swirl down the toilet at breakneck speed. Simply put, can’t make it up; don’t have to. And the best part is they totally don’t get it. But do they get it?
In any case, this man is as sharp and mentally alert as Fredo Cuomo or Don Lemon.
Let’s start with some background.
As we’ve reported, flash-mob robberies, so-called “smash and grabs,” which are rampant — wait for it — in many Democrat-run citiesThese issues are all over America. Like any other important problem facing America, the main question is: Why are they happening and how can we stop them?
In what can only be described as “the genius of CNN,” the above-mentioned analyst, Charles Ramsey, has pondered the same question. While the former police commissioner and law enforcement analyst claims to have “no idea” why the wave of robberies continues to occur (utter nonsense; of course he knows This is exactlyHe did succeed in preventing robberies from continuing to happen. Provide the solutionAll the while, pretending to not be aware.
As reported by NewsBusters on Saturday, here’s Ramsey in all his dishonest glory (emphasis, mine):
“Many of the young people we arrested had no previous criminal records. Why they got involved in this kind of activity I don’t know. . . So I don’t know what’s driving this.”
OK, fine. And?
“The For this type of crime, the punishment is extremely minimal. [We know.] In most cases, it’s a misdemeanor. [Yeah, we know that. as well.]
“There are some DAs that have flat-out said they’re no longer going to prosecute shoplifting.” [Hmm. You think that might have something to do with the problem, genius?]
He is full of garbage.
Is this really the problem?
The Blaze reported the following: It’s so bad
Walnut Creek, California – A roving group of 80 armed and masking burglars invaded a Nordstrom department shop earlier in the month, smashing shelves, and taking away scores of stolen goods.
A number of masked thieves from the Chicago suburbs also rushed to a Louis Vuitton shop and took over $100,000 worth of product in just a few weeks.
As Kira Davis, my colleague, reported on Tuesday, left-wing lunatics such as San Francisco Mayor London Breed are pretty certain that the root cause of the problem lies in failing to recognize it Traffic should be controlled and there must always be public parking.
Again, can’t make it up; don’t have to.
“We’re going to be making some changes to Union Square and how cars are able to access. You will have limited access to the area, so you can only come when it is convenient for you. […] for the foreseeable future.”
This is how I can put it tactfully. Another crock full of garbage. This Black Lives Matter apologist knows damn well why “smash and grab” robberies are plaguing Democrat-run cities and will continue to do so — as she herself admitted. Black perpetrators are not only aware of the ridiculously mild repercussion they’ll face if they get caught they are more than eager to continue robbing, knowing those consequences.
Blatantly so, in the bright of day — because they believe they are “owed” whatever they steal. It is the same belief held by the Left. Well deserved “retribution,” as it were, against racist, white America.
Meanwhile, CNN continues to do its thing — and we all know what that means:
