Inmates committing crimes after coronavirus release ‘unconscionable': de Blasio
[NYP] It is "unconscionable" that Rikers Island inmates who were released due to coronavirus concerns are committing new crimes, Mayor Bill de Blasio said Monday.

"I think it’s unconscionable just on a human level that folks were shown mercy and this is what some of them have done," the mayor said during his morning briefing Monday, which came on the heels of a Post report outlining the issue.

De Blasio said the number of re-offenders remains relatively small and that the city was "buckling down" on monitoring and supervising released prisoners.

#3 Got to understand, socialism/communism is not based upon known human behavior, but rather some unicorn fantasy of what it should/can be.

That's why our Constitution survived as long as it did. The Founder understood base human behavior, unlike some members of SCOTUS.

To a hardened criminal mercy is a sign of weakness.
