      Walgreens is closing five more stores in San Francisco. It turns out having to give merchandise away for free to criminals isn’t good for business.

      Meanwhile, @chesaboudin says nothing about why he's not fulfilling a campaign promise that he made specifically to avoid this kind of situation and go after shoplifting rings:https://twitter.com/alsargent/status/1448114413639139328 …

      @chesaboudin I bet you won't comment on this inconvenient situation and hope it just goes away. https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/walgreens-to-close-5-san-francisco-locations-due-to-continued-crime/2679827/ …

      Don’t the police have to actually do the job of trying to break up these shoplifting rings? No arrest, no charge.

      Yes, you're right; it's the SFPD's job. But if you look at my entire thread (maybe Twitter didn't show it?) you'll see that Chesa made a campaign promise to go after the crime rings that do mass shoplifting. Here's the link to Chesa's campaign promise:https://twitter.com/alsargent/status/1448119358224543756 …

      Al Sargent @alsargent
      Here's where you made that campaign promise btw. You took this down (why?) by thankfully the Internet Archive has a copy: https://web.archive.org/web/20200104170749/https://www.chesaboudin.com/car_break_ins …

      Replying to @alsargent @Restlessavenger and

      My point: before Chesa invests his limited time to do two seasons of a campaign promise, he should first execute on his campaign promises. He didn't promise podcasts (check the Internet Archive link above). He did promise to go after mass shoplifting rings.

          But the DA doesn’t investigate crime or make arrests, they only prosecute crimes. They can partner with LE all they want but if LE doesn’t do their job than the DA can’t do his. Are you expecting the DA to put on a cape and mask and make arrests himself?

          If you were law enforcement and wanted a DA that wouldn’t demand accountability from the police, I can’t think of a better way to accomplish that than to sit on your hands so that someone who is accountable to the people can look bad. Which is exactly the game the SFPD is playing
