Governor Gavin Newsom’s Newest Anti-Crime Policy Met with Mockery

Governor Gavin Newsom has all sorts of ideas about how to combat crime. The issue is, none of them actually have anything to do with arresting criminals and detaining them. Catch and release is so much more humane, right?  

Fox News reports:

Newsom announced the city’s new plan to combat crime in Oakland on Friday, declaring on X that Oakland was going to be putting up “high tech cameras” along busy roads around the city to identify criminals.

In the post he stated, “480 new high-tech cameras are being installed along freeways and in Oakland to make the area safer. These will help law enforcement identify vehicles linked to crimes using real-time information and alerts. We’re building safer, stronger communities for all Californians.”

How about undoing your disaster zero-bail policy instead, Newsom?

Unsurprisingly, Newsom’s creepy camera plan was met with disgust online.

Yup. California is notorious for releasing frequent offenders after they have been arrested anyway, so what is the friggin’ point? To watch people get mugged in real time? Waste tax dollars? All of the above?

Failed policies or not, Newsom knows it doesn’t matter. California will remain a liberal stronghold and their citizens will continue to elect nutcase leaders like they always do. And when that happens, you get crime, chaos and cameras.
