Healthcare professionals demanded we drastically reduce the jail population, so we listened. On Jan 21, the SF jail population was 1,238. On March 4, when the emergency was declared, it was 1,097. Yesterday, it was 766. Meanwhile, crime rates continue to decrease in SF.

Obviously if no one can leave their house, there are less cars to break into. When u say “crime”, u leave out ppl getting assaulted by homeless ppl on their way to work & kids skipping over drug needles on sidewalks. Laws apply even to those that break them— crazy how that works.

With Chesa, all roads lead back to another excuse for why we shouldn’t enforce our laws. His dystopian fetish for lawlessness really makes you nostalgic for @Leif4SF.
