(Los Angeles, CA) — An L.A.P.D. detective is claiming the city is not safe for visitors. Detective Jaime McBride is president of the police union, the L-A Police Protective League. McBride and union leaders throughout the state are calling out Governor Gavin Newsom and progressive district attorneys, accusing them of advocating for criminals. In an interview with Fox News, McBride saying “don’t visit because we don’t think we can keep you safe right now.” He and others blame the “no bail” rule and Prop. 47, which reduced sentencing for various nonviolent crimes, for a sharp increase in crime. In a colorful back-and-forth with Fox And Friends, McBride said “it’s almost safer to hang out with Alec Baldwin on a movie set than go shopping in Los Angeles right now.” In another typically-Hollywood reference, McBride compared living in L.A. to the movie The Purge, “but instead of 24 hours to commit your crime, they have 365 days.”
