No incarceration in my name thanks, I'm an abolisionist.

Abolitionism seems to be failing in keeping people safe. What would it take for you to change your mind?

I would have to be convinced that the proposed path best achieved our shared value of making us as a society safer. But see my personal lived experience is that, police have beaten me, pepper sprayed me, raped my friends, murdered my friends and are a existential threat.pic.twitter.com/BAtUSEFRpi

Perhaps your views on criminal justice are clouded by your lived experiences? They sound really awful so I don’t blame you.

That makes sense, but now we are in a position where our city is experiencing a rise in crime and deaths. Communities don’t seem safer to me. While I empathize with your perspective and Chesa’s I just don’t think the policy is effective. There must be a better way.

Absolutely this isn't finished and criminal justice reform needs a better vision for what were building towards. But that isn't good enough justification to continue to endanger everyone through mass incarceration.

I think the opponents to Boudin and his reforms don’t really want mass incarceration, just a bit of common sense. If a dude gets arrested 5 times a year for the same crimes, releasing them again and expecting different results is insane.

I think incarcerating the greatest number and percentage of people in humanity is insane, however this moment of pandemic is unique and I know the threat is substantially increased. I think Boudins critics mistake his changes as permanent, versus temporary because of pandemic.

Criminal justice should work even during a pandemic, though I do understand it’s a big challenge and not normal circumstances. He’s just not qualified to lead during crisis The habits of criminals today won’t change after the

Medical guidance post crisis will not so drastically limit the usage of mass incarceration, and our court system will actually be trying cases. It's his behavior not our assessments , or criminals behavior that changes post pandemic, as it did in response to the pandemic.pic.twitter.com/3xDVTAHasp
