Violent crimes are soaring in places like New York City. The left has called for defunding the police, and as leftist politicians bow down to them, police are retiring in droves.
What does the queen of the far left have to say now that the news is getting out?
All that far-left socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez can offer is: Don't be hysterical.
According to Fox News:
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D, N.Y., has expressed concern that recent headlines referring to spikes in crime across U.S. cities are stirring up "hysteria."

Not to worry! You will get used to the new normal. Just let people act out and fulfill the urge to be what they want to be and do what they want to do. Freedom is important.

"Hysteria"? Says the young bartender who was so traumatized by the unarmed Buffalo-head non-insurrection that she needed psychological counseling...oh, the horror, the horror.

Others of her ilk are blaming the police and making accusations of cowardice in the face of difficulty.
Craven Marxists who are 'parting out' America and scrapping the remains for fun and profit.

When AOC has a friend or family member fall victim of the rise in crime, she might have a leg to stand on when it comes to commenting on "hysteria." I've lived in a neighborhood where gun violence occurred regularly. It is unsettling. I didn't walk in my neighborhood because of it. I wasn't being hysterical.
I am glad I don't live in violent neighborhood anymore. I can go for walks anytime the weather permits. THAT is freedom!

She knows she is a hypocrite. We know that she knows. Now all that remains is for us to turn up at the polls and really show her.

Seems obvious that they are trying to get funding for their pet programs knowing full well there will need to be " emergency" appropriatuons down the road to reinstate police protections...end redult is more funds for their projects

Was this said at the same time as the random tourist was gunned down for the crime of being white and walking out of the Marriott in Times Square?

Hypocrite. She wouldn't say that if she were ever assaulted. Likely she has bodyguards, and is protected which is even more hypocritical. She knows she's protected, but is not willing to protect others. To her, we are all peasants so who cares what happens to them. Its the Communist way.

Re: #4: Not to be rude or smarty pants but does your theory include the notion that we all voted for Biden?

But her comments on so-called climate change are not hysteria.

waiting for the day when someone who she protects sticks a gun in her face for some un-Godly reason and demands her money or, something else. see how she feels about "...violent crime incidents ..." then. NYC needs Snake Pliskin more than ever right now.

Maybe she doesn't read the news, or knows anyone who's experiencing violent crime, but this is in another Lucianne post today:
Police in Chicago responded to dozens of shootings across the city that resulted in at least six fatalities and 74 injuries, according to a police. There were 46 shootings reported throughout the Windy City from 6 p.m. Friday to 11:59 p.m. Sunday, Chicago Police Department said in statistics released Monday morning. On Sunday night, police responded to a mass shooting that resulted in one fatality and four injuries, a report said.

So, Sandy, send your bodyguards home and take a stroll through Central Park at midnight, or Washington Square about any time.
Double dog dare ya.

I acknowledge AOC as a subject-matter expert, an hysteria hysteric of hysterical proportions.

#11 - Really...not to be "smartypants", winning an election does not require unanimity, does it? These radicals are indeed elected by those they represent. These Reps are enabled to behave as they do becasue they do not fear electoral repercussions. If their policies are a disaster...Their constituent supporters bear as much, if not more responsibility. That New Yorkers experience more crime...well, they voted for AOC and her ilk, didn't they. Anyone is free to leave...in fact, many have.
And those who did not vote for Biden are invited to work hard to defeat him and the UNIPARTY steamroller we are currently experiencing. (Yeah, I know, it's all fixed...futile...)

74 people were shot in 2 days in Chicago this past weekend. Is it hysterical to mention that, AOC?

Anyone have access to her travel log ? How many times has she gone to her district ? Still not live in it ?
It would do someone like AOC good to be drafted and see the world.

AOC is a Moron, but we all know that. Her rants are carefully scripted by the DNC to push the envelope into the trash.
