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 last straw for me was when someone shot up our block for no reason. My neighbor witnessed this and was so traumatized she was hospitalized. They are mostly seniors who don’t need to live the rest of their lives in fear.

How in the world is that Chesa’s fault? What would you propose he do as crime skyrockets across the US? And what impacts do you think your proposals might have on other communities? I think your anger is misdirected.

The fact that drug dealers operate with impunity in the Tenderloin is more than enough reason to recall Chesa.

He’s offering a different approach to addressing issues in our society, but he can’t do it alone. His role is to refuse to use law to punish people for system failures. It’s the state, Mayor Breeds and the BOS’ responsibility to pass laws that support effective responses.

Translation of
@chesaboudin’s approach -“His role is to refuse to use law to punish people for system failures”- into plain English: “Criminals are not criminals. They’re victims of the system. Therefore I will treat them w/kid gloves - if innocents get hurt: too bad, so sad.”3 replies 0 retweets 3 likes -

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.

No kid grows up w/out a dad because of him selling weed. We’re talking fent here. 2 mg killing a person. Re the homeowner: that’s college kid talk. Wait until somebody breaks your car window or just takes your cell phone away from you - I promise you, you will feel violated AF.
