SOCIAL JUSTICE WARRIORS STRIKE AGAIN.
DO WE REALLY WANT CRIMINALS ON
THE STREET THAT MUCH SOONER?
WE DON’T THINK SO!
THE WATCHMAN -
Social Justice Warriors deserve due credit for their tireless efforts at trying to undermine the legal and penal system of not only Oklahoma, but this entire nation. This most recent effort is an affront to those good men and women in law enforcement who put their lives on the line every day to protect the citizens of this state. Not only that, but it undermines the already woefully light sentences alleged non-violent offenders get for their crimes as it is. Maybe if these do gooders would open their eyes they would realize that these criminals, and they are criminals, do very little of their sentences as it is.
There is an initiative petition going around for signatures that is being, in our opinion, misrepresented to the people. That petition would be listed as State Question 805 on the November 2020 ballot. You can see the basic information on the question by going here. It would prohibit an offender’s prior felony convictions from being used to enhance their sentence. It also allows those currently incarcerated to apply for a reduction of their sentence provided their sentence was enhanced by a previous felony conviction. We have to wonder how much longer it will be before these snowflakes are going to ask us to put up signs in our yards asking to be a victim of a crime.
