my understanding is that the he's essentially cooking the books, as in: the crimes are being underreported and recategorized.
i could be wrong

but even then, commonsense tells you: incentivizing crime is probably not the best strategy in obviously volatile times. my car was stolen twice and broken into on two *separate* occasions. haven't been there in a year, but hear wildly disparate points of view.

Ah - now we're getting somewhere. You have a taste for retaliation. Incarceration doesn't really work, but it makes people feel a little better.

incarceration doesn't really work? well whatever this alternative is appears to be working a lot less than incarceration. it seems you are looking for solutions in a world without constraints. i tend to look for trade-offs in a world with constraints.

You know, that is covered so well in the article Boudin posted. You should really read it. When I care about an issue, I go to the trouble of actually learning about it.

3 points you have made: - Unsubstantiated accusation of "cooking the books" - Claim that Boudin is "incentivizing crime" by reducing incarceration while ignoring economic factors other city depts.' lack of action - I'm mad my car got stolen (not really a point per se)

I mean, there just isn't much to dodge here… But economic factors other city depts.' lack of action is worth more discussion. Why doesn't SF have more $ allotted to permanent housing? And addiction treatment centers and safe injection sites (which is coming)?

i love your ACAB vibe. just blame the sfpd instead, right? also, is the sub text of what you just said "permanent housing, addiction centers and *safe injection sites* will help with the crime rate" ? oooookay.

And yes, I think addressing the core problems that lead to crime is a good way to reduce crime. B/c incarceration can only happen after crime has. Very reactionary, not very effective... But performative in a way simple folk like.
