Gov. Kathy Hochul willing to consider bail changes in wake of antisemitic threats

In the wake of a massive rise in antisemitism, Gov. Kathy Hochul said she’d be open to plugging a loophole in New York’s bail laws that lets hate crime offenders back on the street after being busted.

People charged with “making terroristic threats,” a felony, can’t be held on bail under New York’s 2019 bail reform law, making it unlikely that prosecutors could keep those accused behind bars absent other charges.

“I’m willing to look at that,” Hochul said when questioned by a reporter about the issue after speaking in Albany Thursday to a group of law enforcement officials.

“I have human rights laws that we can be enforcing as well, so I have other tools in my arsenal,” the governor added.

She’ll change her mind once the pro-Hamas protestors show up at the Governor’s mansion in NY.

Hate is an emotion...not a crime.

The thought police never miss an opportunity to take away people’s freedom.

I am not condoning the hate by any means but once you cross the line of what is acceptable and what is not, all bets are off. The government will feel free to regulate anything it deems offensive, as we are seeing right now.

Democrat NY Gov. Kathy Hochul’s migrant U-turn:
Video shows she welcomed them ‘with open arms’ in 2021 -
TODAY she tells them: ‘Go somewhere else’

New York governor Kathy Hochul welcomed asylum seekers with ‘open arms’ and pledged to house them just three years before telling migrants to ‘go elsewhere’ because the city is at its limit.

The Democrat addressed the migrant crisis on Wednesday, warning that asylum seekers who arrive in New York City will not be housed in hotel rooms as they have been in the past.

‘We have to get the word out, that when you come to New York, you’re not going to have more hotel rooms, we don’t have capacity,’ Hochul said on CNN. ‘So we have to also message properly that we’re at a limit - if you’re going to leave your country, go somewhere else.’

She didn’t consider this for White and Asian crime victims.

Your Jew hate is really starting to get annoying, so please just go back into your mom’s basement and play with your Adolf and Hamas dolls.
