A DSA member who recently appeared on a news show was asked a very basic question about what society does with criminals like rapists when all of the prisons have been abolished. She had no answer and tried to veer into talking points.
The reason she had no answer is because there is no answer. People who commit crimes like rape and murder need to be locked away from society, plain and simple.
What a lot of people get wrong about these DSA members and their wacky ideas is that they’re just dumb people. Their policies were cooked up in a dorm on some liberal college campus and they’ve never even been challenged.
FOX News reports:
In an interview with NBC 4 Los Angeles, anchor Conan Nolan posed pointed questions to Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) National Political Committee Member Frances Gill on the topics of law enforcement, immigration and the movement’s other far-left proposals.
After a brief back-and-forth over what defunding the police means and how that would be applied in practice, Gill resorted to deflecting by refusing to engage in ‘hypotheticals.’
“What we really want to see is a horizon where folks are not reliant on armed enforcement to meet our public safety needs,” Gill conceded.
“Right, but it says ‘defund police’ on your website — that’s your goal — and also to get rid of prisons and jails, correct?” he pressed, to which Gill answered affirmatively.
“So if my daughter is assaulted and raped, is there any agency that would seek to find her assailant and bring him to justice?” asked Nolan.
“Of course, yeah of course—” said Gill before the host jumped back in with a follow-up question.
“What would it be if not police and where would he be if not a jail?” asked Nolan.
“So I guess I really want to avoid getting caught into these hypotheticals and talk about the reality that we’re actually facing right now,” Gill dodged.
Here’s the video:

During the same interview, she disclosed that she has more than $500,000 in student loan debt. These people think they should be in charge of economic policy? Watch:

How on earth does someone rack up half a million in student loans? And who does she expect to pay for that?
