I am going to defeat Newsom because voters are sick and tired of spending billions of dollars to subsidize addicts to rape and kill each other in encampments in front of schools, in parks, & alongside highways, and because I’m the only candidate with the courage to shut them down

When there are no consequences for breaking laws, addicts and the mentally ill refuse treatment No study was required to know this.

Yesterday I was telling a friend who was considering moving back to SF with his family, “oh yeah it’s safe the crime stuff is overblown.” Then today at 5 am I had a gun pointed at me when confronting auto parts thieves outside my bedroom window.
