- "when I was stealing to fund my addictions, you made shop lifting legal for stolen items amounting to $1000 or less"

- "when I was making violent threats, and assaulting members of the public you let me walk free"

- "when the police tried to intervene you said they were systematically racist against people of color and should be defunded"

- "when I had mental health issues, you closed down all the mental hospitals because you said they were oppressive institutions"
