The wildest part about this is that there’s no actual evidence that this harsh sentencing is working, yet anyone opposed to it has to come up with a mountain of data to head in any other direction. Harsh sentencing isn’t a deterrence, that’s well established in research.

An eye for an eye tooth for a tooth. Do you think that public executions wouldn’t make you think twice before killing? Public castrations of a man for raping a thirteen year old girl? If you knew that you would be deported for selling crack or fentanyl I think you would think

It doesn’t work though. You’re also applying this to extreme cases (like most overtly punitive justice policy) and not focusing on the vast majority of people this type of thinking ensnares. That’s not to mention you’re referring to a set of laws specifically shown to be unjust.

@chesaboudin has chosen to not prosecute a rapist, and a hate crime black on Chinese. I am disgusted. The system will never be just to a person whose own parents are convicted murderers. Where is the justice for the victim?1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

Gonna need a source on the first, but as for the second incident you mentioned, the restorative justice approach is literally what the victim wanted. The majority of victims don’t even want harsh punishments, so stop acting like you’re speaking for them as some homogenous group.

I am speaking for myself and millions of other law abiding citizens. If you want to support this piece of crap go ahead. My focus lies with quality of life crimes. Citizens of San Francisco are under attack

“Quality of life crimes” is a specific thing in criminology, and probably doesn’t mean what you’re referring to, just FYI. It refers to things like homeless people camping, minor vandalism, shoplifting, etc.

That is exactly what I am referring to smarty pants.

That really should be bottom of the list. But I guess if you think putting homeless people and drug addicts in jail somehow helps society then keep thinking that.

Come down to my hood. I think you might have a change of heart. You will see first hand the realities of the policies that you probably voted for blindly or under the guise of another name (Prop 47). Jail is the only option if they don’t agree to the help.

Putting them in jail doesn’t help either. And you’d actually have to fund mental health and drug abuse treatment in order for that to work large scale, so until we do that...

We voted to fund those, but HJTA & Roundtable (ie multinational banks & telecomms) are goin to appeal it all the way to SCOCAL, and lose there “Broken windows” was categorically debunked ~15 years ago empirically, and repeatedly since Public health & RJ approaches actually work
