Who could have foreseen that not prosecuting crime would result in more crime?

[davidpotwin]

It’s voting time is why this is happening

[AChoosen]

Why all of a sudden now do you care? This has been going on for over 10 years. And it’s catch and release.

[thatsjustmygame]

Yeah, they're coming to bail you out of jail.

[RichardAugustMatthewMan]

Too little, too late.

All hat, no cattle.

[guytracy]

He’s too busy tearing up the second amendment to worry about prosecuting anything else. Don’t worry thieves he doesn’t have time for you.

[seekeroftruth]

Oh, gee, it only took you guys 4 years to finally act.

[chrismerino]

How about theft is a crime and you need to go to jail not confusing at all

[earlofmar]

Why don't you reverse Kamala's Prop 47.

[WilliamFreeman-jv]

Since your governor gave the criminals permission to steal whatever & however much they want to are arresting newsome first....right?
Are the people newsome said could be stolen from going to be reimbursed?

[vanceshaw]

He didn't say retal crime, He said organized retal crime. That just means you can steal as long as it's not organized.

[candicavasos]

Laws? We've always had laws!! Just you refuse to hold them accountable!! Bla bla bla.

[jeffb]

Just what a politician would think and do, more laws. What an absolute, 💯 % complete waste of time. The laws are already in existence, politicians didn't allow them to be enforced. Keep on voting for Demoncrats.

[cathybrown]

After the election this will go back to lawless.

[marianac]

It doesn’t matter if your courts do nothing,

[rochellesandoval]

Come on...your not going to do anything...all talk

[ylafla]

Change of heart, all of a sudden! LMFAO!

[iamgabriel]

I won't hold my breath waiting for them to do something about those crimes.

[helenestes]

Oh, your 9 hundred that is under is OK to shoplifting? Idiots

[helenestes]

Boy you can sure tell it's election time, wow .
