On a call right now about Crime in San Francisco's District 8. 171 constituents are dialed in so far to this call on crime in our district. I will live tweet it. To start, Rafael Mandelman started quoting all of the crime statistics that are down year over year. Not helpful.

Now Officer Chris Woon is saying that we should stop leaving our garage doors and front doors unlocked. He is blaming us.

He is telling us that we shouldn't have glass on our garage doors because it's not secure. WHAT?! What we don't need right now is victim blame with tutorials on garage safety.

He is still telling us how to make it harder for criminals to get into our house. We are 20 minutes in here. It is ONLY victim blaming so far. This is outrageous

Some good outrage in the chat though: "While I know it's not the SFPD's fault, wouldn't a more effective solution than having to worry about garage security be actually keeping the repeat criminals in jail versus allowing our DA to release them onto the streets"

More: "As a homeowner here, I don’t really want tips for mitigating their ability to break in - I’d rather we find ways to keep the criminals out of our community through whatever methods are necessary"

Based on the chat banter, it would appear that some people are finding garage safety tips useful but the vast majority are demanding they start discussing real solutions that keep criminals off the streets not how citizens can turn their houses into forts

Honestly this is completely underwhelming. Nothing useful. Nothing actionable. Mostly telling citizens we don't have enough locks on our doors. NOTHING about change in policing. Or criminal justice.

Chesa is on now! Starts off explaining what happens after a crime happens. "A crime occurs, police get called, police investigate, police solve the crime. Then it gets presented to DA, and DA decides if there is enough evidence"

"If and when we do file, we decide if there is enough evidence" "The main data we rely on is police data"

@chesaboudin is #PoliceBlaming ya they made an arrest but usually there isn’t enough to charge... and Obama DOJ redefined “crime” down to if DA didn’t charge and obtain a conviction then it really wasn’t a crime to begin with. . #Leftist #DoubleSpeak
