I wish this was a parody but...
From the
New York Post:
De Blasio gets policing advice � from ex-cons
Forget Ray Kelly, Bill de Blasio is getting his policing advice from the real experts � hardened criminals.
A group of 50 ex-cons, junkies and chronic vagrants gathered at a Manhattan �Think Tank� Thursday to describe what they thought the NYPD should be doing to make their lives easier.
The felonious forum outlined a clear �get-soft-on-crime� vision.
�I like the idea of ending stop and frisk. That was the first thing that was totally there for me,� opined Mikell Green-Grand, a 49-year-old former jailbird who has convictions for grand larceny and identity theft.
Arthur Castillo, 38 � who has been convicted for possessing stolen property and assault � said he would be much obliged if the cops just left him alone to do his thing.
�Cops won�t leave us alone!� he said. �Newly released prisoners are watched by the police and a lot of us don�t feel we have an opportunity to readapt to normal life because we are treated as criminals even though we are free.�
The event, which was held in Morningside Heights, was hosted by an advisory group called Talking Transitions, run by liberal billionaire investment magnate George Soros.
Sheesh... Don't the people in NYC remember what it was like under other liberal mayors? There is a reason that New York had conservative mayors for the last 24 years. It will be interesting to see the crime rates start to spike upwards...
