We cannot empty the jails every time someone gets the sniffles. If you don’t want to be in jail, stop committing crimes. There, that was easy.

At least 75% of people incarcerated in SF jail are awaiting a trial. They haven't been convicted of anything. Many of them didn't commit any crime and get released after a few years of waiting. Hope it never happens to you.

You are painting a picture of mostly innocent people walking down the street and getting picked up by cops and put in jail for years. Police arrested people on probable cause so the incarcerated people are the ones that put themselves in that situation.

They put themselves in that situation by being black, brown, and poor.

I know the left says that so that everyone can say they are a victim and take no personal responsibility for their actions. But the reality is that most people in jail actually did something wrong and have to deal with the consequences.

The article also says that after California began releasing criminals from prison, “violence” went down. Didn’t say anything about “crime”. Store owners need to be able to operate without criminals having no consequences to walking in and emptying the shelves via theft.
