IN the NEWS - When Government Fails to do God's Ordained Purpose for Them

 Be subject for the Lord’s sake to every human institution,
whether it be to the emperor as supreme,
or to governors as sent by him
to punish those who do evil.....
1 Peter 2:13,14
 
"Attention all criminals, especially those who like to mug/rob people or participate in drive-by shootings, California and Washington are working on reducing the penalties for those who commit such crimes.
A California legislative proposal that would actually reduce the penalty for committing armed robberies in the Golden State is being advanced by WOKE progressives.
CA State Assembly Bill SB 82 would reduce robberies that do not involve a weapon felony crimes to misdemeanors.
The lawmaker behind the Senate Bill says it will prevent overcharging non-violent criminals.
 
Washington Democrats are offering up a bill in the state legislature to lower the penalties for drive-by shootings
Current laws require drive-by shooters to receive an aggravated enhancement charge if arrested and prosecuted. In rare cases, a successful prosecution leads to a life prison sentence for the drive-by shooter who murders someone. 
But under a bill proposed for the upcoming Washington state legislature by white, woke state Rep. Tarra Simmons and her co-sponsor David Hackney, the penalties for those committing these heinous crimes, would be reduced, in a move toward “racial equity.
Yes, you read the preceding correctly. The two legislatures are actually asking their peers to reduce the deterrent against drive-by shootings, trying instead to reduce the number of people of color from getting charged and convicted for doing the shootings instead.
KIRO-TV News reported last July that “80% of shooting victims in King County are people of color,” but the city put its “defund the police” dollars behind an effort to hire social workers as part of a “regional peacekeepers collective.” An additional $140 million was earmarked for “groups that work on BIPOC safety.” TP
 
"The year of 2021 ended as one of the most violent on record in
Chicago, as a rise in the number of shootings left more people dead than in any single year in a quarter century, according to statistics released by the police department on Saturday. According to the department, 2021 ended with 797 homicides."
