The Issue: An investigation into allegations of abusive courtroom habits by Judge Naita Semaj.
We now know that pro-criminal Judge Naita Semaj is incompetent (“Disorder in the court,” April 21).
How will we do away with somebody so incapable of doing high quality authorized work? The info of her lunacy are simple.
But let’s bear in mind, it’s New York. Once a foul individual is given energy, it’s unattainable to utterly take away them. She’ll be doing visitors courtroom subsequent.

Every day that Naita Semaj sits as a judge in any courtroom, be it prison or civil, is an insult to the integrity and public status of the New York judiciary.
This shame of a jurist have to be eliminated with prejudice if public confidence can ever restored to a system that’s already beset with insane political interference.
It has been advised that she can be transferred (learn dumped) to the civil division.
Having repeatedly proven gross incompetence and undisguised prejudice, she is not any more healthy to take a seat on civil instances, which might maintain litigants private and property lives within the stability.
She should go.

Unsurprisingly, an conceited, unjust justice of the regulation, Semaj, has been accused of verbally abusive habits towards a prosecutor within the courtroom.
Such a radical, pro-criminal judge must be benched relatively than sit on the bench.

Elections have penalties.
New Yorkers have constantly voted for the progressives, which has allowed a radical like Semaj to develop into a judge and make a mockery of our criminal-justice system by pandering to criminals and insulting prosecutors.
If she is faraway from the bench, she’s going to little doubt cry racism and sexism.

The Issue: A bunch of younger individuals who rioted in downtown Chicago for a number of days earlier this month.
It appears to me that Chicago is unwilling to meet the first responsibility of any authorities: To defend the lives and property of its residents (“New Chi mayor: Cut mob slack,” April 19). The similar applies to many different US cities.
The resolution is as efficient and as previous as civilization itself: Riots and looting have to be crushed instantly and ruthlessly.
The argument that rioting and looting are actually simply types of protest just isn’t solely naive and foolish, it’s also irrelevant and downright harmful.
When a society permits riots and looting, law-abiding folks die or have their lives ruined.
Chicago’s new mayor ought to make it clear that rioters and looters can be arrested and punished to the total extent of the regulation.

What occurred in Chicago is, sadly, solely a prelude to what is going to undoubtedly occur on the Garden State Mall in New Jersey.
Similar to Chicago’s Millennium Park, the mall instituted a coverage lately of stopping unescorted teenagers from coming into with out an grownup throughout night hours to chop down on unruly habits, as skilled previously. It’ll simply be completely different cops getting overrun.

I really feel sorry for the folks of Chicago, form of.
After the teenage takeover of the Windy City’s downtown space, and the violent habits that ensued, I’m questioning why Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson stated to not demonize the rampaging hordes of younger folks.
Looks to me as issues gained’t be altering an excessive amount of in that once-great metropolis any time quickly.
