Last month we told you about the peak progressive brain rot that was on display from New York City Assemblymember Emily Gallagher. The NYC socialist argued that nobody should be jailed, or even arrested, for shoplifting or other "low-level" crimes.
No one should be arrested—much less jailed—for stealing a tube of toothpaste.

Incarceration separates people from their jobs, support services, & loved ones. It perpetuates cycles of poverty & crime.
That’s a fact, no matter how much fear mongering the right wing media does. pic.twitter.com/WjyEPGIXqU
Gallagher has taken that "argument" one step further by making this claim:
JUST IN: Democratic Socialist NYC Assemblymember Emily Gallagher declares “choosing not to prosecute low-level crime reduces crime.”
