This
is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.
One
of the most insidious legislative initiatives of the Obama years – and that’s
saying something – is pending legislation increasingly known as the “jailbreak
bill.” Its progress through a Republican-led
Congress relies on false pretenses to put tens of thousands of hardened felons
back on the streets, and probably back in the business of violent crime.
One
example of this fraud is its supporters’ recent roll-out of a new group called “Conservatives
for Safety and Opportunity.” Turning
loose large numbers of drug-traffickers is something that could be supported
only by “conservatives” – and other Republicans, libertarians and Americans
more generally – who are indifferent
to the “opportunity” it creates for endangering our “safety.”
Add
into the mix that at least some of
the felons this so-called “criminal justice reform” legislation would spring
have been converted to shariah in prison and you have “jailbreak for
jihadists.”
