      Supporting victims & survivors is a priority for my office--exactly why we sent a survey for their feedback. Strange to be criticized for asking victims for feedback. Somehow @hknightsf took an effort by our office to listen to survivors as proof that we don’t.

      Just judging by comments, no one really gives a shit about the content of this story. For most commentates, the story is just pretext for complaining. And ironically, lots of the SF tech community would probably sympathize with being character assassinated via journalists...

      From what I can tell, people mostly seem irate at the feeling of lawlessness they perceive to be normalized in SF, and that’s being attributed to public promotion (by your office apparently) of policies of non prosecution for low level crime...

      ...There’s a sense that the directives of your office are directly contributing to a worse lived experience in SF.

      Regardless of whether that blame lies at your feet, or that of the office of the DA, you have a large public perception problem, particularly among residents who feel that protection of their property or the protection of their safety is not a high priority for your office.

      I’m not saying they are right or wrong. Nor am I saying your policies are right or wrong. But from afar, this is an issue you need to address, bc it is causing a major fracture of trust in the institutions of law and justice within your community...

      Whatever story you think the data shows, people’s anecdotes and the emotions they inspire in others matter. So when I can see videos of junkies strung out and OD’ing on the side walks, videos of literal human shit on the side walks of SF,...

      ...countless tweets about burglaries of residents’s homes with little follow up from your office, a video of an empty Walgreens looted daily, and countless other stories of assaults on your streets, those anecdotes tell a story of an inability to ensure safety and justice...

      ...on the most basic level. At a minimum that’s a political problem for you. More broadly that’s a real issue that needs to be addressed. Because those perceptions matter, whether they are true or not.

          Your commentary is well presented. But as someone who grew up in SF the problems you point to have always been there. Always. It's actually better now than it has ever been. SF has more billionaires than any other city. If there is an ongoing issue, why aren't they doing more?

          That makes a lot of sense about the relative state of things. I’d argue that the narrative of current circumstances matters as much as the reality, bc that’s a huge part of what shapes human emotional response. What should billionaires be doing more of?
