      I find it interesting that Progressives often cite "inequality" not "poverty" as the driver of increasing crime. Inequality is about the differences between people, not about overall quality of life. What is the implication? That people are acting out of envious rage?https://twitter.com/JustMrPhillips/status/1459582139788185603 …

      We know staggering income inequality is the root of crime. Yet the people doing the painstaking work of addressing it are often scapegoated for enabling it. My latest: https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/Here-s-what-the-people-behind-the-Chesa-Boudin-16616934.php …

      This article was very light on facts, data, or logic. I have a hard time interpreting it. It had links to other articles by Justin, but no attempt to back up this claim: "We know staggering income inequality is the root of crime." Do we know that? Is that correct? Globally?

      Apparently the main argument against crime being an issue in SF is that it used to be worse - 50 years ago. "Overall violent crime is far lower than what city residents endured from 1970 to 1990." Um... So what? I bet crime was higher when the Ohlone were ruling too.

      "San Francisco may not appreciate that addressing crime means healing old, festering wounds of inequity." Does anybody understand this sentence, or its implications? How does a city address old festering wounds? How old? Back to Ohlone times old?

      “America has decades and centuries of locking people up. We know what doesn’t work.” Okay, if it doesn't work, then what does? Does jail never work? Seems like most nations in history have believed it works...

      "Unless you want to live in a police state, truly addressing crime is about uplifting historically disadvantaged communities." Most of the crime happening in SF is coming in from the East and South bay... How can SF uplift communities there?

      Justin writes the DA recall signals SF becoming "a place where the affluent care more about the preservation of inequality than following through on the painful work to end it." No. The affluent (& everybody else) want to feel safe in their homes & walking in the streets.

      Digging in to defend crime is a bad strategy for liberals right now. The vast majority of ppl are not criminals, and don't want to defend them - especially at the expense of law-abiding citizens.

      When we allow & excuse crime it makes people feel that if they are playing by the rules they are the fool. For the person working minimum wage, or going into debt starting something - why do it? Why try hard when you can just cheat?

      My understanding of criminal justice reform was that it's about rehabilitation. I am all for that. If someone goes to jail they should have an opportunity to get clean, learn skills, change their life. What we have here though seems more like anarchy...

      Replying to @michelletandler

      Yeah, what @chesaboudin is doing seems to have very little to do with restorative justice, which is something that requires a lot of work and community buy-in. Hopefully even very left people can now recognize what an empty suite he is. Though I suspect a lot of them don’t care.
