I am thankful that @chesaboudin heeded the guidance of our @SF_DPH (specifically Dr Pratt who specified how many prisoners to hold at maximum) but also our @HouseJudiciary including members @RepKarenBass , @RepJerryNadler to reduce incarceration.https://judiciary.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=2893 …

@virtualvirtues , I am most frustrated by chesa's adversaries deliberately conflating short term crisis decisions made by medical personnel, with long term ideologically driven ones. Its both that, shoplifters should see detention, and that in a pandemic detaining them is unjust.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

I think its very hard to confuse concerns about Covid with a radical plan to not prosecute criminals, mainly because the statements, actions, and declared mission statement from Chesa. So, 'deliberately conflating'? Strong disagree. There are dishonest actors on both sides /1

But in regards to acting on Covid...what is the excuse now? We have a widely available vaccine, anybody who wants it can get it...for free. Covid is not going away. When does a reaction to short term crises start to look like a long term ideologically driven one for you?

And at what point does a case and detail like this concern you? What is too far? What metrics are you looking for to support him more? What would make you support him less? What is the response to something like this? fhttps://twitter.com/DionLimTV/status/1453481891944755204?s=20 …

Of course violence in our city is concerning, which is why its so important to find effective solutions. The status quo isn't effective,

David Menschel @davidminpdx1. Some in the press suggest those of us who want a serious, responsible dialogue about crime (rather than a sensational fearmongered panic about it) are “not taking crime seriously.” It’s nonsense – a petulant demand that we embrace a cynical politics & irresponsible journalism.Show this thread1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

In what universe is anything he's done 'something proven to be' [effective]? Case after case, we are seeing people who have been arrested 2,5,10 times in a single year....life is so much more complicated than responding that 'the status quo isn't effective'. What specific part?

Where reform is instituted, violent crime decreases most rapidly. This study of democratic vs republican counties in California explains. I

Rachel Marshall @RachelRMarshallBreaking news: new@CJCJmedia report finds that crime trends are worse in Republican counties. Homicide rates are almost 30% higher in Republican-voting counties.

So much wrong with this, I don't really know where to start. Impossible to compare Repub and Democrat *California* countries. None of the major cities are Democratic, wildly diff size, location, resources, culture, common occupations, etc. And this says nothing about any policy.

Orange county, vs Los angeles? Sure seems like a apt relevant comparison to me.

This line of thinking assumes that to be Democrat is pro Chesa/dismissing unprecedented amounts of cases, and to be against Chesa is to be Republican. Wildly untrue. I can't understand connecting this study to the discussion we are having.
