JUST IN: A recall against San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin will very likely reach voters by mid next year. Campaign organizers beat the Oct. 25 submission deadline, and city officials now have 30 days to validate the signatures.https://trib.al/fUIhcOd

The approach you’re suggesting is a continuation on the war on drugs. It’s BEEN the strategy for 50 years of SF politics, and SF topped the charts in crime, homelessness, and drug use BEFORE Chesa. Your approach failed because you think you solve poverty with guns. You do not.

Yes. The war on drugs has failed. And we have an immediate crisis on our hands that long-term kumbaya policies will not stop. 200 COVID deaths - we shut everything down. 700 dead addicts - we are content to climb over their dead bodies on the way to lunch. Literally. CONT’D

Let’s also talk about the white-frame this comes from: it’s correct we don’t want innocent people to get hurt. But how do you define “innocent people”? Are you including the unintended consequences of overpolicing in black and brown neighborhoods?

No, not at all. You don’t care about the kid who will grow up without a parent because his dad sold a dime of weed on market street. Youre concerned with the homeowner who needs their car window replaced for the second time. Hardly a victim.
