Washington state Democratic lawmakers have proposed a new bill that would lessen penalities for drive-by shooting murderers to "promote racial equity" in the criminal justice system even though the state has been ranked among the worst in the country for drive-by shootings.
House Bill 1692, sponsored by Democratic representatives Tarra Simmons and David Hackney, was introduced to allegedly "...promote racial equity in the criminal legal system by eliminating drive-by shooting as a basis for elevating murder in the first degree to aggravated murder in the first degree."
Here's the thought process behind this...
Representatives for Simmons sent a statement which said the existing penalties were "...targeted at gangs that were predominantly young and Black."
Using this thought process, they should reduce the penalties for domestic violence because it targets predominantly males because that's sexist.
New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.
