It is not that Chas Moore is ignorant, it is he completely misunderstands the consequences of his views on criminals. Moore wants to eliminate the police, jails, and prisons. That will put a lot of people out of work, especially since judges would no longer be necessary.
Moore says:
“Someone breaks into my home; I call the police, and then what? Even if they find the person, now the person goes to jail. We didn’t really fix anything. We punished this person in a way that’s not really helpful.”
“Let’s work out a deal to where I can still hold you accountable. I would actually say instead of sending her to jail, let’s say she pays me back by cleaning my house for the next six weeks.”
What the hell? Someone breaks into your house and steals your stuff. As a punishment they have to clean your house for six weeks, giving that person access to your stuff for six weeks. And even if they get caught, they get an additional six weeks with access to your stuff. One of us is totally crazy. Normally I give the other person the benefit of the doubt, but not this time. I feel safe in saying it is Moore. It gets worse.
Moore says:

“What do I actually gain by having this person held accountable in a system like jail or prison?”
Maybe you don’t gain anything, but future victims get to keep their lives.
Despite holding views outside of the mainstream, Moore has gone largely unchecked in the liberal Texas capital, according to moderate Democratic activist Cleo Petricek, who was once part of Moore’s group until she realized they were trying to defund police — not just hold bad cops accountable.
“That is what is ruling the day here in Austin,” Petricek said in an interview with The Post.
“It makes me so mad that somebody like that, with that type of mentality, has the ear of the mayor. It scares me.”
The day Moore spoke to The Post, he said he had left a meeting at City Hall with the city manager.
The city’s leadership had arranged the face-to-face to explain what role state troopers from the Department of Public Safety would play as they patrol Austin streets.
The reason that state troopers are needed to patrol Austin city streets is that the city’s police force has seen a wave of resignations — 358 officers have resigned in the last two years. The troopers are needed to keep order.
This was made manifest last February when chaos reigned in the streets of Austin. Hundreds of people took over several intersections for drag racing, doing donuts, and vandalizing cars.
It was a scene out of medieval Europe and foretells the future in the America Mr. Moore wants to create.
