[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kristin Mink is like a Fox News caricature of an insane liberal.[/quote]

She truly is. She touted the fact that kids could lose extracurricular activities and be sent to an alternative school as "serious consequences" that should deter other kids from following in their footsteps.

She obviously doesn't know any actual teenagers or pre-teens if she thinks that's scaring any of them.[/quote]

At a recent town hall someone asked about the increase in armed carjackings by teens and Mink said maybe we need to improve bus service so that teens don’t need to steal cars to get home… I wish I was making that up but she really said it. [/quote]

This woman is a not a serious person. How did anyone vote for her?[/quote]

Never elect a professional activist. I think a lot of people in her Woodmoor neighborhood voted for her without really doing their research. Hopefully they won’t make that mistake again.[/quote]

I sincerely hope they don’t make that same mistake but I don’t give them a whole lot of credit. Does anybody know what the feeling is like in her neighborhood and in her district?[/quote]

Everyone’s frightened by the crime crisis but most are afraid to say anything publicly for fear of being called racist. That’s my take and I live in Woodmoor.[/quote]

I recently escaped from Woodmoor and it if full of the biggest mouthed, mean people that bully everyone not in their cliques.  It is truly hateful.  They have regular "woke-offs" on the local listserv and if you dare disagree with the current absurdity, the moderator mutes you.  
It is a true echo chamber.  Mink fits in that group like a glove.  [/quote]

That's really concerning.  It's obvious she's in an echo chamber.  She steered the conversation to be all about juvenile treatment without even touching the fact that there are some teens who are wreaking havoc on their neighborhoods and truly hurting people.  Usually people who don't have sufficient resources. People are actually getting hurt. People are living in fear. People are losing their property (cars), when they don't have many assets to begin with.   Mink lives a very privileged, sheltered life.  Rent control doesn't stop guns and carjackings.[/quote]
