The urge to flee when accountability is breathing on the neck of the perpetrator is as old as the hills.

So, why then is the perpetrator, or why are the perpetrators, allowed to get away nonchalantly with what they have done? It looks like the mayor wants to be defeated in the next municipal direction. Can’t say that I blame her, given what is the best case scenario for the United States: a weaker greenback.

Playing Devil’s advocate, I am guessing that she
wants the streets to be safer than they would be
when the perpetrator is fleeing, and the police
are in hot pursuit.
