Ocasio-Cortez Calls For Abolishing Prisons In The United States
By  Ryan Saavedra

Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said this week that it was time for the United States to have a serious conversation about “decarceration” and “prison abolition in this country.”

“Mass incarceration is our American reality,” the former bartender tweeted. “It is a system whose logic evolved from the same lineage as Jim Crow, American apartheid, & slavery. To end it, we have to change. That means we need to have a real conversation about decarceration & prison abolition in this country.”

Apparently, she thinks like Riff in West Side Story: "Hey, I'm depraved on account I'm deprived!"

Dear kindly Sergeant Krupke,
You gotta understand,
It's just our bringin' up-ke
That gets us out of hand.
Our mothers all are junkies,
Our fathers all are drunks.
Golly Moses, naturally we're punks!


Okay, fine... but wait: prison is like slavery? Huh?? Really???

Well... life for AOC is just a dream these days; call it Upper West Side Story... a magical place where like-minded wealthy elitists live far above the noise and traffic and crime, never mix with the lower classes, and prefer their Starbucks coffee.... decarcerated.
