His entire term has been dominated by the effects of COVID. We don’t know if his policies would work or not.

Policy is not the right word imo. Not doing that which it is job to do, due to his ideology, is more accurate. Policy is not the job of a DA. Dropping crime cases that have multiple videos for evidence but no DNA, that is not policy. That is negligence.

Covid has certainly changed the landscape, but if there are 30 drug dealers who have been working on the same handful of street corners for 36 months, that is a failure of epic proportions.

Not only Chesa of course, but he has taken it and is running with it, and doesn't seem concerned with responsibility for bad results. Lots of podcasts, grand sweeping Tweets, interviews, and other celebrity shit. I want a boring a public servant who is does their job.

He really seems to be running a national campaign, which makes sense when we consider most of his donors were out of state

Getting tough on crime doesn’t reduce drug use, or decrease drug overdoses. It doesn’t even seem to reduce the price, though it does increase the potency. Public dealing is perhaps a nuisance that belongs indoors but decriminalization is the best policy.

Does prosecuting drug dealers reduce drug use? As far as I can tell, illegal drug dealing is only legal in SF and it has extremely high fentanyl deaths

Prosecuting drug dealers has no impact on drug use whatsoever. At least in the US. Caning and prohibition work on Singapore but we aren’t an island state.

I'm quite skeptical of this... No country allows open air drug dealing

In Amsterdam the government gives heroin for free to addicts. I have seen them line up to get their fix.

That's the government, not drug dealers
