Neighborhood Crime Watch Signs Removed for Being Racist

Not only is it racist to incarcerate criminals, it is racist even to suggest you don’t want them casing your neighborhood.

MLive reports from Ann Arbor, Michigan, via Instapundit:

City Council voted 10-0 Monday night, Dec. 15, to direct city staff to remove all neighborhood watch signs in the city by July 15 as the city strives to be more welcoming and inclusive.

A City Council resolution denounces neighborhood watch programs:

“These programs were often rooted in assumptions about who did and did not ‘belong’ in a neighborhood, reinforcing race-based hyper-vigilance and suspicion particularly toward Black, Brown, and other marginalized residents and visitors,” it states.

“This dynamic encouraged informal surveillance practices that disproportionately targeted people of color and contributed to patterns of exclusion under the guise of public safety.”

Those burglarized or as sometimes happens raped and murdered in their home can be regarded as necessary sacrifices in the noble cause of combatting patterns of exclusion.
