Blame NY’s progressive leaders for the vile on-camera killing of Angel Mendoza

The tragic murder of 14-year-old Angel Mendoza at a Bronx playground has shocked the community and raised concerns about the rise in teen violence. The incident, captured on video, highlights the brutal reality of teen-on-teen crime that has become all too common in New York City.

Progressive leaders in New York have come under scrutiny for their policies that some believe have contributed to the increase in juvenile crime. The Raise the Age law, which raised the age of criminal responsibility to 18, has been criticized for allowing teenagers to commit crimes without facing serious consequences. As a result, the number of minors caught with firearms has increased significantly, along with the number of juvenile gun victims.

Governor Kathy Hochul’s decision to sign the “Raise the Lower Age” law, which prevents offenders between the ages of 7 and 11 from being charged as juvenile delinquents, has further exacerbated the issue. Gangs are now recruiting younger children to commit crimes, knowing that they will likely escape with minimal punishment.

The COVID-19 lockdowns and resulting increase in chronic absenteeism have also played a role in the rise of teen violence. With more kids skipping school and spending time on the streets, the likelihood of getting into trouble has increased. Angel Mendoza, who had no prior criminal record, began cutting class and hanging out with the wrong crowd before his tragic death.

While Angel’s killers will be tried in adult court as juvenile offenders, the culture of consequence-free crime for minors remains a concern. Progressive policies that prioritize leniency over accountability have created a dangerous environment for young people in New York City. Until real consequences are established for youth offenders, the cycle of violence is likely to continue.

It is essential for New York to address the root causes of teen violence and implement policies that prioritize the safety and well-being of all residents. The tragic death of Angel Mendoza serves as a stark reminder of the urgent need for change in our approach to juvenile crime.
