A young Ukrainian woman, a refugee from the war riding on light rail in Charlotte, was recently stabbed to death by an apparently insane black career criminal with whom she had no interaction. The whole hideous thing is on video, creating a scandal the legacy media are trying mightily to ignore.
The perp should have been locked up, but wasn't. The local DA said he wasn't sane enough to be held responsible for his earlier crimes, so he was released!
Presumably as an accused murderer NC will finally lock him up. It shouldn't have required a woman to die horribly to make that happen.
Charlotte's disgusting mayor babbled the usual progressive bull crap about not being able to arrest our way to less crime. Arresting isn't the problem, he'd been arrested repeatedly. The problem is unwillingness to physically separate criminal predators, including those mentally ill, from sane, law-abiding society./
I start to think El Salvador has the right idea. Rehabilitation rarely works, quarantining those who either cannot or choose not to behave does work.
Afterthought ... I don't know why this murder isn't a hate crime.
