We can stop the Tenderloin from being a drug dealer containment zone. Here's how, http://bit.ly/3nunxvt @MattHaneySF @Twolfrecovery @LondonBreed

Randy, you can complain about SFPD resource allocations all you want, but as long
@chesaboudin lets drug dealers right back out to sell again nothing will improve in the TL.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

Our

Chesa Boudin 博徹思Verified account @chesaboudinReplying to @chezpim @MattHaneySFFact: approximately 20% of my general felony team's caseload are drug sales. We do prosecute these cases, everyday, for better or worse. As we've learned from the war on drugs after all these decades of failure: this is not a problem we can police or prosecute our way out of.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

Lol,
@chesaboudin sure "took action" in this example.https://twitter.com/sfpdinvestigate/status/1428223754329460747?s=20 …Willy Naaktgeboren added,
SFPD Investigations BureauVerified account @sfpdinvestigateOn July 27 & 29th officers assigned to the Narcotics Detail conducted undercover operations at 9th & Mission. Both ops led to back to back arrests of the same dealer. An Officer followed him from court to the Tenderloin where she witnessed him continue to deal drugs (contd). pic.twitter.com/jKc7cOnfy0Show this thread1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

Sure seems to me like after 40 years of the most unhinged incarceration the world has ever experienced, drugs are still available, addiction grows more prevalent, violence has increased and so has lawlessness.

Chesa Boudin 博徹思Verified account @chesaboudinReplying to @awokeocracyAbout 25% of my general felony team caseload is drug sales. It's a huge distraction from violent crime. Come watch court any day of the week and you'll see felony drug sales cases being prosecuted. Don't blame me because the war on drugs has been a total failure since inception.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

Lol, SF doesn't incarcerate people in the "war on drugs". Hence the problem.

Actually research reliably shows that incarcerating more people does not help the
@fentanyl_crisis. It does however, cause dangerous variety in potency and purity of street drugs, driving overdoses, violence, lawlessness, and promoting addiction.https://twitter.com/HamasakiLaw/status/1436497301833277444 …Paul added,
John Hamasaki @HamasakiLaw“a large body of prior research that cast doubt on theory that stiffer prison terms deter drug misuse/drug-law violations. The evidence strongly suggests that policymakers should pursue alternative strategies that research shows work better and cost less.” https://www.pewtrusts.org/research-and-analysis/issue-briefs/2018/03/more-imprisonment-does-not-reduce-state-drug-problems …1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

Gee, Paul, stationing a cop on every TL street corner to pretty-please ask the dealers to sell in another neighborhood ain't gonna help.

Sure won't decrease availability of drugs, it will however reliably cause increases in violence, lawlessness, losses in liberty, overdoses, and other deaths.

The answer lies in the middle. And, as most of these studies do, they conflate drug users and drug dealers. They aren't always mutually exclusive. In fact, I posit that the vast majority of organized drug dealers in SF don't use their own product.

The question for me personally isn't whether drug dealers make society better, but why we myself included should continue to give up our essential liberty in pursuit of prohibition, when it has been proven to be causing violence & this
