AOC blames NYC crime spike on parents shoplifting food for their hungry families

Crime spike? What crime spike?


Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez shrugged off New York City’s frightening rise in crime, suggesting that tough times are forcing parents into committing petty theft to feed their kids.


“They feel like they either need to shoplift some bread or go hungry,” Ocasio-Cortez (D-Queens) said last week on a virtual town hall for constituents that was broadcast on her official Facebook page.
AOC on increased NYC crime: "Maybe this has to do with the fact that people aren't paying their rent & are scared to pay their rent & so they go out & they need to feed their child & they don't have money so... they feel like they either need to shoplift some bread or go hungry." pic.twitter.com/oHSTWWJZ6a

The first-term lawmaker blamed the crime wave on the devastating economic downturn sparked by the coronavirus pandemic.


“Do we think this has to do with the fact that ... people are at a level of economic desperation that we have not seen?” she asked.


AOC answered her own rhetorical question by appearing to justify the spurt in crime that has seen shootings and murders skyrocket this summer.


“People aren’t paying their rent and ... they need to feed their child and they don’t have money,” she explained.


The city recorded 43 shootings in the last week, up more than 300% from the same time period in 2019. Ten people were shot over a bloody July 4 weekend


The progressive lawmaker counterintuitively suggested that cutting more funds from the NYPD would help stem the crime wave, apparently because that money could be channeled into social programs.


“The New York City police department has not been defunded,” she said, referring to proposed 15% cuts in the NYPD’s $6 billion budget. “These cuts aren’t really real. And again, they haven’t even happened yet.”

Where are the Liberals - the future is intheir faces in NyCity - yet the narrative ideology is too strong, and Trump Hate too strong, for the LiberDems to see Reality in front of themselves.



More social workers - yeah that is what NY city needs.

How about a repeat of OBLM and non-violence - since the cops are handcuffed.


One thing to recognize - if biden - and the real POTUS to be a- a radical socialist - are elected - When they take power the thugocracy will come down hard on dissent - and crime.

There will be secret police and thought crimes - and running riot in the streets will be met with Lead.

Think Putin or Xi would permit "protests" - hardly.

Orwellian doublethink paves the way to authoritarian control by the 'Party" - that is what Bernie and AOC plan


SR - you are a smart guy - take a look at this doublespeak by AOC.

Shooting people to get food is aggravated robbery.

Shot her ass full of lead .... it settled between her ears.

Unfortunately society is ruining that attitude that so many Police Officers do have. Right now many large Departments are seeing older Officers retiring and young officers leaving the profession all together, New York City is one.
