Isn’t that how SF works? “Compassion” and San Francisco values over logic and common sense? Homeless industrial complex anyone?

what is the common sense solution to stop the spread of covid? to crowd people into areas they can’t maintain proper hygiene in? https://www.aclu.org/news/smart-justice/new-model-shows-reducing-jail-population-will-lower-covid-19-death-toll-for-all-of-us/ …

Like a tent encampment? I think at a minimum, a jail or other facility has medical care, food and water, and while not pleasant, is honestly likely far safer and more hygienic than they’re likely to find on the streets, COVID19 or not.

I know Chesa wants to empty the jails on principle, but using a pandemic as cover is deceitful and foolhardy.

i disagree. i think that we will see the cities/states that refuse to release prisoners have much higher death tolls, specifically of incarcerated people but also in general.

I’m not sure that chesa wanting to slash the jail pop (and by extension, the prison pop) is really a debatable point. He has said as much.

Oh I see. thanks. The federal prison system is draconian and punitive it would seem, SF jails not so much, so I still think as stated above, knowing full well it’s no picnic.

no worries man. i’ve been arguing in these replies all day with people who legitimately don’t care if incarcerated people die so i’ve probably been over defensive. i think we want the same thing.pic.twitter.com/Z24C03ouyt
