Jailbreak for Jihadists

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.”
