There’s that damn liberal bias o

This is how libs view “facts”:

1. ID a problem area (crime, in this case) that makes them look bad
2. Re-define the problem so they don’t look bad anymore
3. Declare victory

That dog don’t hunt. In fact, it sh1ts in its own bed.

Let’s cite an example! California’s Prop 47.

Cut penalties across the board for a variety of offenses. Like shoplifting. You know. Retail crime.

How’d it work out?

(Lots of charts and data)
Major outcomes?
Overdose deaths skyrocketed after Prop 47's passage
Shoplifting became endemic after Prop 47
Serial shoplifting is no longer a felony after Prop 47

When you vote blue, you bleed red. That’s the only fact that really and truly has a liberal bias.
