Following Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s decision to prosecute an ex-Marine Daniel Penny for subduing a deranged habitual felon on the subway, who died from the chokehold, 50,000 people have donated to Penny’s legal defense fund.\u00a0 Michael Lee of Fox News reports<\/a> that the fund has received $2.5 million since Penney was charged with second-degree manslaughter last Friday.\u00a0 Along with the contributions, many New Yorkers thanked Penny for taking action to prevent violence on the city’s crime-plagued subways.\u00a0 “My daughter rides those subways, Keep them safe,” wrote one donor.\u00a0 “I would have wanted you on the subway if I were there,” wrote another.\u00a0 Bragg’s decision came after protesters including Al Sharpton and progressive politicians ranging from the New York’s Mayor, members of the\u00a0 City Council, the state legislature, and members of Congress demanded that the white man who choked the black criminal, with over 40 arrests, be charged with murder.\u00a0 A no-brainer for the Soros-bankrolled District Attorney.\u00a0\u00a0 On the other side of the country, in progressive San Francisco, the District Attorney was faced with a similar case.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

On April 27 a security guard at a San Francisco Walgreens shot and killed shoplifter Chynna “Banko” Brown, after she became violent when he attempted to stop the theft.\u00a0 Last week progressives and transgender activists demanded that the security guard be charged with murder.\u00a0 The Board of Supervisors passed a resolution demanding that Jenkins release the store’s security video of the shooting.\u00a0 California Globe writer Evan Simon reports<\/a> that after reviewing the video and interviewing witnesses, District Attorney Brooke Jenkins announced yesterday that she would not be prosecuting security guard Michael Anthony for defending himself.\u00a0\u00a0 Did race play a role in Jenkins’ decision?\u00a0 She was certainly under political pressure to prosecute Anthony.\u00a0 San Francisco Supervisor Shamann Walton\u00a0 told reporters<\/a>, “DA Jenkins\u2019 decision to not charge gives every armed security guard in San Francisco a license to have an open season to shoot and kill Black and transgender people for alleged shoplifting.\u201d \u00a0 The Board President Aaron Peskin has asked the Soros-funded California Attorney General Rob Bonta to open an investigation.<\/p>\n

The contrast between these two district attorneys is not racial.\u00a0 Both Jenkins and Bragg are black.\u00a0 But Bragg ran as a progressive, promising to remove racial bias in law enforcement by not enforcing the law against black criminals.\u00a0 In Bragg’s city, a white guy who kills a black man, even in self defense, is going to be prosecuted.<\/p>\n

Jenkins ran to replace the Soros-bankrolled progressive DA Chesa Boudin, who was recalled by 60% of San Francisco’s voters last year.\u00a0 She promised to enforce the law and protect the public from criminals, including violent, black, transgender thieves.\u00a0 She appears willing to face harsh criticism from her own political party to keep that promise.<\/p>\n

That is what District Attorneys are supposed to do.<\/p>\n
