Alameda County recalled their “progressive” district attorney because she was corrupt and racist.
People want to have progressive values but that goes out the window when you start suggesting “restorative justice” for someone who shot a baby.
Truly curious, what did she do that was corrupt and/or racist?
I mean, it's got to apply equally to everyone. Not everyone may be open to, or able to be reformed, so some will need to be kept apart from society, but you can't apply a different standard of justice based on how you feel about someone.
