- 3 August 2022 : One of the things I was working on before leaving the Police Commission was putting together traffic stop reform with a great coalition of bike, walk, public defender, and community activists. We put a plan together, tied it up in a bow, and now this. Get it done, stop talking.
- 3 August 2022 : It would be nice if cops ever actually did things for the community, instead of grifts like national night out. National Night Out has become this giant nationwide overtime operation. No one shows up but cops & their people, while racking up time and 1/2.

- 13 July 2022 : “No district attorney can snap their fingers and do away with all crime,” Jenkins told the New York Times. Not so fast. Breed appointed Jenkins in the aftermath of a bitter campaign that saddled the DA with direct responsibility for crime rates. Why move the goal posts now?”

- 23 June 2022 : The Supreme Court is just a protection racket for dirty cops https://twitter.com/latimes/status/1540051919397277696
- 23 June 2022 : I'm guessing police don't love this ruling, right now, they have all the guns on the street. Now, because people can be armed, and have a right to self-defense against police, I think we are gonna see more shootings between police and armed people. This is not gonna end well.
- 23 June 2022 : I don't really want to be in that position. The more guns, the more violence, the more unnecessary deaths. It's not a great path to go down. No one is made safer by a bunch of idiots running around with guns. We are all in more danger because of the extremists on the Court.
- 23 June 2022 : What's the move for the rest of us now? There's gonna be a lot more cowards and crazies running around with guns. Do we have to start carrying too, just because all the little armchair warriors are going to? Next time one of them road-rages or freaks out, how do we stay safe?
- 23 June 2022 : What's gonna happen when a cop sees a young Black man, following the law, as completely made up, by the Supreme Court? There's gonna be a lot more "he's got a gun" and open fire, cops get qualified immunity, families lose a loved one. Yay laws.
- 23 June 2022 : The ruling is great for the armchair warrior slobs who are going to shoot you over road rage, even though they will never actually face real danger in their lives.
- 23 June 2022 : Our whole justice system, starting with putting cops in schools, is directed towards criminalizing primarily Black & Latinx youth. That way, they can never lawfully own gun. Then when their lives are under real threat, the police will arrest & imprison them for the gun.
- 23 June 2022 : US gun laws are enforced most aggressively against Black people, esp in California. You catch a felony as a kid - lifetime ban. 40+ misdemeanors carry 10 year bans. The Court's ruling today, the folks that might need a gun b/c of community violence, will go to prison for it. https://twitter.com/ASFleischman/status/1539983069968474112

- 23 June 2022 : Starting pay at SFPD is 90k + amazing benefits, and local police union-owned politicians just gave them raises, overtime budget, while demanding nothing in terms of reform. Cops can easily make 150k in total compensation after a few years. https://twitter.com/staceyabrams/status/1539936969001680897

- 23 June 2022 : What I love about this term is the Supreme Court has completely eviscerated any claims to legitimacy at interpreting the constitution. It is just another political body, a cruel, dumb, and hateful one. https://twitter.com/mjs_DC/status/1539980793963053056

- 23 June 2022 : Yes, I'm happy that there are YIMBY folks that aren't abject racists and misogynists. I think most people understand that we need to house people in this country. The shitty hateful behavior, which I responded to originally, is what you need to control.

- 23 June 2022 : "Some friends felt that Mr. Pelosi’s full night in custody at the Napa County Jail after the accident was excessive.

- 23 June 2022 : I was told after, this is what a cop sees on the street. But is it? How many of the encounters HAVE to go like this? How many can be safely resolved if you see a person in crisis as a human being and treat the crisis?
- 23 June 2022 : @ThomasOstly this one of yours?
- 23 June 2022 : I've tried it, it sucks. All it does is teach cops to be afraid of every person they encounter, teach them to view possible innocent moves as threats, and makes them comfortable with blasting a person like a video game. It teaches violence, not how to peacefully resolve things. https://twitter.com/nypost/status/1539747858584420352

- 18 June 2022 : tweet through it, bro. it's not the MAGAs, it's the actual lawyers dunking on you
- 18 June 2022 : Make no mistake, Mary Jung is responsible for stoking and encouraging anti-Blackness in this campaign, just to score political points and please Tucker Carlson. Whatever the merits of the recall, they could have made their case without all of the racism & fear-mongering.
- 18 June 2022 : Wild attempt to rewrite history of the weirdos behind the far-right DA recall. Claiming dem status, while partnering with the most vile and racist republicans to bring their Fox News fight to SF.

- 18 June 2022 : It must be nice to sit up on-high, permitting small meaningless reform - what if cops wore rainbow flags for pride! That would be justice! Without changing anything about the horrible anti-LGBTQ history and present of policing. WaPo is a joke and this editorial is a disgrace.
- 18 June 2022 : The thing is, if we let @washingtonpost control the debate, we would still be a much more segregated society, our schools would be segregated, policing would still be wholly racially driven, criminal justice would still be focused on mass incarceration.
- 18 June 2022 : The thing is, moderate democrats, like WaPo have never fought for civil rights, criminal justice reform, and police reform. They have always been the "white moderate" MLK spoke of - you are moving too soon, we support you, but we don't like your style. Let's take things slower..
- 18 June 2022 : It's wild, even as nearly every other criminal justice reformer/progressive has beaten establishment "tough-on-crime" democrats/conservatives across the state, @washingtonpost is trying to make one very unique recall election in SF the story.

- 17 June 2022 : In New York, 66% of arrests of Black people for misdemeanors are dismissed. What that means is police are likely unlawfully arresting Black people the vast majority of the time. DA has to step in to dismiss illegal arrests. https://twitter.com/johnfpfaff/status/1537826439986302979

- 12 June 2022 : One key point is the next SF DA has to have a demonstrated commitment to prosecuting dirty cops. Since the police union drove this recall to protect the criminals in their union, it would look terrible to appoint a badge bunny type who will just allow them to crime.
- 12 June 2022 : Not sure he has much of a chance, the days when the Alioto name meant something are long gone...
- 12 June 2022 : If she wants to kick a hornet's nest, and end up in battle with the left for the next 5 months, that's obviously her choice. But I think the City would benefit from an appointment that calms tensions, not throws a burning match on a can of gasoline.
- 12 June 2022 : So if I were the mayor, I would find someone who would, maybe not thrill progressives, but would be a good steward of the polices of Chesa and other reform prosecutors, policies that are now considered best-practices by experts.
- 12 June 2022 : I don't think any of the wannabes that backed the recall are in contention anymore, bye Brooke, bye Nancy. Sup Stefani was always a long-shot pick, way to close to the police union and the far-right. Her appt would mobilize pretty much everyone connected to justice reform.
- 12 June 2022 : lmao, votes for Chesa now exceed any candidate's totals for the 2019 DA election. Which suggests: (1) Chesa could run successfully again in November and (2) the only chance the Mayor has of stopping that is appointing a strong progressive DA. https://twitter.com/christinevans/status/1536010280458543108

- 12 June 2022 : Khakis, right?
- 12 June 2022 : Yea, I’m still gonna make dumb jokes on the recall clowns fake justifications for removing DA. Literally none of it was true or supported by facts, just bad vibes.

- 12 June 2022 : Grand jury indictment dropped this week in this case out of San Diego. Cool that PF is getting a turn, but 99/100 of these prosecutions are targeted at leftist protestors https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/courts/story/2022-06-07/san-diego-grand-jury-indicts-anti-fascists-previously-charged-in-pacific-beach-protest-violence
- 11 June 2022 : Showing up at protests with shields & flagpoles, canes, flashlights, bottles - anything that can potentially be used as a weapon, can get you this charge if there are communications supporting it. I think the organized nature of PF vs leftist protestors is a KEY difference.
- 11 June 2022 : One caution for leftists, I've represented a bunch of folks on the left for similar conduct, even the same charges (CA version). While fuck patriot front and anyone who stands with them, always be cautious about cheering on police tactics that get used against the left daily.
- 11 June 2022 : So far, kinda a meh case from what's public, HOWEVER, cops likely have enough probable cause to get warrants for their cell phones and socials. A good phone dump + all their communications could make this an interesting case. https://twitter.com/chadloder/status/1535768029425897472

- 9 June 2022 : The San Francisco board of supervisors just voted 11-1 to give the SFPD police union raises, after 2 million in overtime bonuses.

- 9 June 2022 : Problem is she has zero experience in leading an office or anything, a whole host of ethical issues, and all the baggage from the recall.
- 9 June 2022 : The Mayor is in a tough spot now with the DA appointment, none of the grifters who supported the recall could survive a citywide election in November. It’s gotta be someone outside the recall, but I haven’t heard any good names yet.

- 8 June 2022 : "The lesson of the DA recall...is that feeling guilty, putting up BLM signs and buying a copy of “White Fragility” is easy.

- 8 June 2022 : If the Mayor's "make life hell" speech was on the ballot - locking up homeless folks and drug users (put in nice legalese, of course) - would that have passed?
- 8 June 2022 : If anything the DA recall shows the power of of NIMBYism in San Francisco - No homeless, no poor, no Black people, no suffering in my backyard. Lock 'em up, and take them away.
- 8 June 2022 : Yes, the NIMBY's won a round, congrats
- 8 June 2022 : Oh yea, wasn't criticizing the story itself, just the framing that this means lock-em-up throw out the key is back. Which some wish, but I don't think you can draw that from this election.
- 8 June 2022 : Literally every conservative and right-winger is cranking out the same take - the DA recall means moderate dems need to be even crueler-on-crime.

- 7 June 2022 : When the DA recall clowns claim to care about crime and violence, just remember that the police unions are backing Sacramento DA Schubert, where crime has exploded under her “tough-on-crime” policies. It’s about protecting dirty cops from accountability, not public safety.
- 7 June 2022 : Wow it’s almost like poverty is a precursor to crime, who would have imagined? What if instead of shoveling all the money to cops to not prevent crime, we lifted people out of poverty and avoid crime in the first place? https://twitter.com/prison_health/status/1534256380286103552

- 5 June 2022 : Even the Chronicle notes how "rare" this weekend press conference is - coming right before the election. Surely a coincidence! Definitely not trying to protect the police union campaign against the DA.
- 5 June 2022 : Why does this feel like politics? 1. Shift the discussion away from the horrific SFPD double-homicide. 2. Back up the SFPD police union which is driving the DA recall.

- 3 June 2022 : "We were really looking forward to bringing this lively debate to you, but with topics like this, passions run high and we were not able to guarantee safety and respectful participation. We’re very disappointed to lose an opportunity to discuss Prop H openly." - organizers
- 3 June 2022 : Resulting in the organizers having to cancel the event due to safety and security concerns - in other words, concerns about the danger of the DA recall crowd. Truly unhinged times we are in right now in San Francisco, fascism on the rise with @safersfnoboudin and their goons.
- 3 June 2022 : Debates should be a healthy exchange of ideas and help the audience understand the issues better. The DA recall people have attended previous events and verbally attacked women who speak out on the anti-recall side. Here, they mass purchased almost all the seats in blocks of 10.
- 3 June 2022 : A debate between right-wing prosecutor Brooke Jenkins & law prof. Lara Bazelon at @welcometomannys was just cancelled because apparently the DA recall people ordered all/most of the tickets and they couldn't ensure the safety of few DA supporters/participants who would attend.

- 3 June 2022 : I know some folks are disappointed, but this is just a huge L for the police union, which was hoping for a show of force at Pride. They wanted to show they were back in charge of the City, the mayor and dorsey backed them and the ended up groveling for crumbs.
- 3 June 2022 : Humiliating defeat for the SFPD police union, the mayor and cop-supervisor Matt Dorsery. After throwing one of the most embarrassing tantrums in City history - no guns, no batons, no badges, no overtime, only the bosses get uniforms. https://www.ebar.com/index.php?id=316123

The article was also widely condemned for racist and anti-immigrant hysteria in the article, ok by Dorsey! https://twitter.com/hamasakilaw/status/1526986952800555008
- 1 June 2022 : When you look in the Tenderloin, you see people like Dorsey, struggling with drugs, but without the power & privilege to get the help. The privilege that kept him safe when he was out doing felonies. Which is why he was able to join SFPD and produce propaganda. Must be nice!
- 1 June 2022 : I’m glad he is in recovery, after years of felony drug conduct. But why join the war on drugs? Wouldn’t you gain some compassion for your fellow drug users? Not in this war, the targets aren’t people like Matt, the traffic stops, raids, and warrants don’t target his kinda user.

- 31 May 2022 : Expect a shit-ton of crime panic stories in the next few weeks/months, no way the police and the media are gonna let criticism of Uvalde and policing lead to any positive changes. Gonna be non-stop murder and mayhem, watch, just like since George Floyd.

- 27 May 2022 : The police union, backed by the mayor, is too fragile to appear at Pride without their badges and guns. But easy to take two lives they could have saved. One thing I agree with them on, I'm glad to be off the commission. This ain't on me.
- 27 May 2022 : This will never get the attention or care of Uvalde, because the victim(s) here were the unhoused. Our whole city gov't has been dedicated to dehumanizing and degrading these folks for years. Two more dead, nothing will change. No one will care, because of who the victims are.
- 27 May 2022 : When did it get like this, like Uvalde? What happened to protect and serve, not just hide and shoot? This is the training though, officer safety comes first - here killing a victim rather than taking a chance at a scrape or a cut. This will be found "in policy" guaranteed.
- 27 May 2022 : Any nightclub/bar bouncer has broken up a worse fight. But there is no attempt to do anything that might scratch a pinkie of a cop. They shoot the less-lethal gun 3 times, spray with pepper-spray, and then one starts shooting and others freak out and start blasting. Two dead.
- 27 May 2022 : I'm sure I'll get the same pushback, the officers were scared, it was dangerous, he had a knife. Isn't that the job of police, tho? Put yourself in maybe a slight bit of danger to save a life. There were easily 12-15 police, every weapon and shield under the sun. Why shoot?
- 27 May 2022 : Hard to watch after Uvalde, but the town hall for the SFPD police double-homicide demonstrates the exact approach.

- 27 May 2022 : You were military including Iraq. You come back and you work for one of the, if not the, most racist prosecutors office in the Bay Area. Now you’re backing up a Texas prosecutor who coulda cleaned up Uvalde, and telling us to trust you. (Definitely not a fed 😎)
- 27 May 2022 : Steve Kerr has been one of the most effective voices on Uvalde and guns. Cool to have him lead our Warriors to the Finals! https://twitter.com/warriors/status/1530026108611006464
- 27 May 2022 : It’s fine you have a cop past, but you should probably disclose that when you are simping for prosecutors. And maybe don’t come at someone who has actually been doing the work just to back a prosecutor.
- 27 May 2022 : Your absolute lack of competence is astounding, even by Texas standards. https://twitter.com/hamasakilaw/status/1530008766669656065

- 27 May 2022 : What’s your question, officer?
- 27 May 2022 : keep simping for the police, bro
- 27 May 2022 : Appalling to think that if this ex-prosecutor had done her job, Uvalde might have been a lot better/safer place. Instead of this absolute learned helplessness. Oh, I worked with the dirtiest cops in town, poor me.
- 27 May 2022 : Prosecutors are the one check on the unbridled power of police. Prosecutors can: 1. report lying cops/misconduct 2. prosecute dirty cops 3. put them on "do not call" list, making them useless 4. do NOT bring cases from these officers 5. raise it with supervisors/dept.
- 27 May 2022 : You want credit because you allowed dirty cops to roam the streets, when it was absolutely your job to hold them accountable? GTFO. Ex-prosecutors want the glory but never the responsibility. https://twitter.com/Miriam2626/status/1529985370166906889
- 27 May 2022 : 2172 quote-tweets right now. It is effective, I get that, but it is also why we have so much unhappiness and anger in the City rn.
- 27 May 2022 : Walked to the corner store before the game, been going to same spot for over 20 years. Family-run, daughter working today. Uvalde popped on the tv and we just started talking about our kids. How she waited to watch her daughter walk in today and was late. It's unbearable.
- 27 May 2022 : Put them on the "do not call" list in the office, makes them unable to work in the streets. Don't bring cases from these officers. Prosecutors can have a huge impact on policing, but most of them just 😍cops, dirty or otherwise.
- 27 May 2022 : Cool, what did you do to change it? How many cops did you report for misconduct? How many times did you bring charges against police?

- 26 May 2022 : How much force should parents be allowed to use to save their child's life from indifferent cops? There's an argument that self-defense/defense of others law in California would allow force to be used against cops in this situation. (see calcrim 3470) https://twitter.com/paleofuture/status/1529652093354536961
- 26 May 2022 : Can't wait to hear how this was just a "bad apple" whole police department and what we need to really do is give them billions more to fix it.
- 26 May 2022 : Cops did exactly what they were trained to do, beat, harass, maybe taser, civilians - here trying to save their children's lives. What would you do if you showed up to an active shooting and your kid was in danger? https://twitter.com/paleofuture/status/1529669808228294656

- 26 May 2022 : Uvalde police could really use SFPD's ex-chief of propaganda Matt Dorsey, who managed to steer the dept through numerous scandals, killings, violence, corruption, & racism. The mayor just appointed him to be a city supervisor, even though he had no experience, just propaganda. https://twitter.com/savage_esquire/status/1529851066837135360

- 26 May 2022 : Gun stores, dealers, do not need to sell military-style assault rifles - even if the crackpot Supreme Court says they can. Hold the dealers accountable.
- 26 May 2022 : If you are wondering why the Uvalde police haven’t come up with a clear narrative of their actions - it’s because they are getting their story straight. Not the real story, the story that absolves them of responsibility for their failures.
- 26 May 2022 : If I was the democratic party, I would be absolutely flooding the NRA convention with demonstrators. Shut that shit down already. Fund buses, buy tickets, get out there and let them know killing our kids is not an acceptable business model.

- 23 May 2022 : Crime was much higher when we had a "tough-on-crime" prosecutor. Sacramento, with far-right police union prosecutor Schubert has one of the biggest violent crime & murder spikes. It has nothing to do with public safety. https://twitter.com/ryangrim/status/1528829296663470080
- 23 May 2022 : 1 million the first week, 2.3 I think for the month, all overtime. But it was more of a holiday bonus.
- 23 May 2022 : Tweet is correct, they would be on duty and being paid. Parades, protests, generally are overtime outside of regular duty assignment. They are permitted to march wearing SFPD logo clothes, but wouldn't be paid. This is a fight for more money, not about uniforms.
- 23 May 2022 : SFPD’s million dollar media unit is frantically trying to make Pride the story, not the 2 people they killed last week, including the victim of a violent crime. pic.twitter.com/LkeUOcTYnV
- 23 May 2022 : My guess is that all of this drama is because SFPD just killed 2 people, including the victim of an assault https://twitter.com/HamasakiLaw/status/1528834456299110402?s=20&t=9xIsyrMCgFkjIsePUElsew

- 23 May 2022 : SFPD apparently killed the VICTIM of an assault and the assailant last week and have gone completely silent. No weapons mentioned, dept and police union pushing out a lot of unrelated stories (Pride, etc.) rn. This is looking like a bad one. https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/California-DOJ-investigating-double-fatal-SFPD-17192807.php

- 23 May 2022 : The mayor and cop-supervisor Dorsey are turning their backs on Pride because cops won’t be able to make overtime for marching. This is what San Francisco moderate democrat politics have come to - by the police union, for the police union. https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/S-F-Mayor-London-Breed-won-t-march-in-Pride-17192906.php

- 23 May 2022 : Another inspiring SFPD police union story - when the DA made the big bust of the stolen property dealer operating under SFPD's nose, SFPD refused to help secure evidence. The police union wants increased crime to help the DA recall, so Boudin will stop prosecuting dirty cops. https://twitter.com/IDoTheThinking/status/1528772808930537472
- 23 May 2022 : @sfchronicle gets so close, but can't say it, it is all about cashing in, here police make it clear - they only will attend if paid: "she won’t march in Pride if she’s prohibited from wearing her uniform, she may help manage a police recruitment booth." https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/San-Francisco-pride-police-17188144.php
- 23 May 2022 : That is correct
- 23 May 2022 : SFPD won’t march in Pride because they can’t wear their uniform, even tho they could wear all the SFPD clothes they want. Real problem is - they won’t get paid all that overtime if they aren’t in uniform/on duty. It’s not about Pride, it’s about 💰 https://abc7news.com/sf-pride-parade-2022-san-francisco-police-sfpd-not-marching-in/11883428/

Basically you just created a bigger story about your extreme anti-abortion history. Dumb. https://twitter.com/pplscitycouncil/status/1527797468305297408
- 20 May 2022 : I've never seen SFPD slow to release that people they killed were armed, the weapons, etc. The last killing Dorsey's team put out that a real gun was involved and only later admitted a fake gun. The lack of a master like Matt around is really screwing up the narrative.
- 20 May 2022 : LA Superior Court judge on the need to provide mental health treatment and funding, to help people with their issues instead of just jailing them.

- 20 May 2022 : Anyways, the Marina ain't all bad, but there is a bad element that makes it uncomfortable for some of us. Maybe the only way to clean it up is to diversify it, build a shit-ton of housing there, of all types and income levels. Bring more good people in, drown out the right.
- 20 May 2022 : Now I am mainly there with my kid, soccer games on the Marina Green, we practice for his other sports there too. The reason that incident yesterday was disturbing was cause the incel did that in front of my kid, way outta line.

- 20 May 2022 : Quick follow-up on the Marina. I've commented before about the conservative nature & ultra-white makeup of area. That said, I genuinely love the Marina, just like other neighborhoods in the City. You can find me there 3-5 days a week for kids stuff, sports, socializing, etc. https://twitter.com/HamasakiLaw/status/1527453548824236032
- 20 May 2022 : The DA recall ghouls just want hard numbers of convictions and prison time. This is dumb. Everyone eventually gets out, why not give them the tools to succeed? Why not put guardrails in place to help them on the right track? This is what diversion does, we should do it more.
- 20 May 2022 : This is a story that local media doesn't cover often - the success stories of our criminal courts. Yes, they exist and happen when defense attys, prosecutors, and judges work together to try and help people get on the right track and avoid reoffending. Which should be the goal.
- 20 May 2022 : Our legislature, which isn't particularly progressive (whole state, duh), has enacted a series of diversion programs over the last decade or so, including mental health & juvenile diversions that have been game-changers. Kids in court can benefit from guidance, not convictions.
- 20 May 2022 : This is actually a good story about a diversion program (ignore the clickbait headline) and how our criminal justice system can actually help people instead of just incarcerating them (as the right-wing DA recall backers want). https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/boudin-diversion-recidivism-17185654.php?utm_campaign=CMS%20Sharing%20Tools%20(Premium)&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral via @sfchronicle
- 20 May 2022 : It's wild when you think of it - money that could be going to housing, social services, treatment & medicine - went straight to police instead. To send teams out to push homeless people from one block to the next. Literally nothing else police can do about it.
- 20 May 2022 : The reason police are handling homelessness is a simple one - cash money. As crime dropped over the past decades, depts had lots of police without justification. Answer - they will handle homelessness! What do police have to do with housing people? Nothing! But it is lucrative. https://twitter.com/JessPish/status/1527706992160215041

- 20 May 2022 : The reality is prosecutors protect dirty cops all the time - we usually don’t get to see it up close like this. Especially when there was such a clear link to the cop’s current crime. Basically if Rosen hadn’t protected the cop, maybe these other women wouldn’t be victims now.
- 20 May 2022 : Kinda different when the police get their encampment swept.
- 20 May 2022 : Oh prosecutors protecting cops who sexually assault people? It must be Thursday
- 20 May 2022 : The toxic and oft-criminal police union got involved and all hell broke loose. The business apologized gratuitously for offending them. Which is nice, but who apologizes to all the people on the street who get rousted, harassed, and told to move along by the police every day? https://twitter.com/welcometomannys/status/1527437807299399680
- 20 May 2022 : Interesting story. An employee apparently asked SFPD officers not to loiter in front of the business, maybe fearing they were harassing customers or setting up an encampment. Cops were like, hey harassing people just hanging out on the street is our job! https://twitter.com/stanleyroberts/status/1527433044549783552

- 19 May 2022 : Ohhhh...lol just learned that @AnnieLowrey is married to @ezraklein which pretty much explains everything about the article and platforming Richie. We the good white folks shouldn't have to face the reality of our policies, lock up the poors, arrest the homeless, jail the ill.
- 19 May 2022 : I get @TheAtlantic is supposedly center-right but this is mostly just discredited racism and hate in nice, elite framing. Oh we are very concerned about Richie the Republican and his hatred of Black people, which is absolutely representative of San Francisco. Really?
- 19 May 2022 : I mean, it takes 2 seconds to figure out who he is, it was an intentional choice to use him. There are plenty of DA recall crackpots who aren't openly racist and anti-Black.
- 19 May 2022 : Holy hell, what a mess. @AnnieLowrey platformed a notorious far-right extremist @richieSF2016 to argue for a more racist justice system. Richie is best known for his deranged rants against Black people living in San Francisco. Just an article full of angry white grievance. https://twitter.com/TheAtlantic/status/1527330698922582021

- 19 May 2022 : SF Standard argues that "immigrants are behind the fentanyl epidemic; immigrants can be scapegoated for the overdose deaths the city continues to experience; immigrants are using their lack of citizenship as a guise to engage in criminal activity to avoid harsher punishment ..."
- 19 May 2022 : "Buried in the piece is also a dangerous narrative around illicit drug dependence. It’s inferred that the lack of criminal prosecution is correlated to rising rates of drug addiction in the city and that less drug availability will mitigate this public health emergency."
- 19 May 2022 : "the problematic nature of the piece exists in many facets: how it misrepresented facts ... and that it adds fuel for xenophobic rhetoric, as well as builds a language around addiction shamming as it pertains to criminality." @thebolditalic https://thebolditalic.com/we-need-to-talk-about-how-dangerous-this-reported-piece-on-da-chesa-boudin-is-to-san-francisco-15daf69e8955?source=social.tw

- 18 May 2022 : Though, if I found one of my clients with a human-sized ball of wax cheese wrappers, I'd have questions.
- 18 May 2022 : Right, that is the proper distinction, the general collective delusion by white supremacists in their beliefs vs. people who are actually struggling with serious mental health problems who adopt those beliefs.
- 18 May 2022 : When we attack the mental health status of folks without knowing, it is harmful to all of the non-white supremacist people struggling with it. I know this take is well-meaning, but also feel it is sort of destructive to the people I represent.
- 18 May 2022 : That doesn't mean that mental illness excuses support for white supremacy, but to say that it can't or doesn't play a part is just absolutely wrong. We see it in the criminal justice system every single day, a large portion of the cases originate in mental health issues.
- 18 May 2022 : Might be an unpopular take, but the two are not mutually exclusive. People struggling with mental health issues may be more susceptible to delusional thinking - which is white supremacy at it's core, a delusion. https://twitter.com/ninaturner/status/1526619255780802560

- 17 May 2022 : The headline reads like something off of Fox News - just absolutely misleading readers to support the far-right DA recall. Perfect mix of “replacement theory” and drug war hysteria to energize their readers. Disgraceful to push this out days after Buffalo.
- 17 May 2022 : This is really grotesque and I am shocked they printed it. Arguing that families should be ripped apart because one member sold dope. Fact is they are STILL convicted by DA and face the same terms, just under a different code section so ICE doesn’t snatch them up.
- 17 May 2022 : Ugly anti-immigrant framing from @sfstandard . Because right-wing prosecutors worked with ICE to secure convictions to deport folks, the CA leg. passed a law REQUIRING DA’s to consider immigration in plea deals, plea is to non-deportation charge. https://sfstandard.com/criminal-justice/da-chesa-boudin-fentanyl-court-data-drug-dealing-immigration/
- 17 May 2022 : Why tho
- 17 May 2022 : “It’s for this reason and others that, while crime and domestic violence in San Francisco are serious problems that need to be addressed, this measure has failed to garner support even from the people it was designed to serve.” Ouch.
- 17 May 2022 : The @sfchronicle absolutely slams Prop. D, police union-friendly Sup. Stefani’s ballot measure preying on crime victim’s needs to promote herself for DA. So a strong No on DA Recall & No on politicizing crime victims for political gain. Nice. https://www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/editorials/article/proposition-d-sf-17174625.php

In return, Newsom went to court & fought for prison guards right to kill prisoners.

- 15 May 2022 : The reason police never stop these far-right, white supremacist killers, is because a lot of them are sympathetic/supportive of their views.

- 13 May 2022 : Did Ostly call some of his buddies in the police union and say, he keep an eye on this guy, I think he's up to something? Nope, just pushed the case along while a crime empire was built under Ostly's and SFPD's nose. No wonder Ostly was fired and hanging with the recall bums.
- 13 May 2022 : So here's a thing anyone who has ever watched TV or a crime movie knows - police are the ones tasked with investigating and solving crime (sometimes they even do!). In what world is the DA the primary investigating agency? This is why the cops get bazillions in their budget.
- 13 May 2022 : Ostly, the guy responsible for the case, didn't get additional terms of release to stop the guy, just pushed the case along, complete deadbeat. Now he's whining that Chesa should have done the job Ostly was too lazy or incompetent to do? What about the police, where were they?

- 19 April 2022 : “He simply took the [submachine gun] home for his own curiosity and he very much realizes that decision was a poor one and is appropriately remorseful for having created this situation,” Need to try that line sometime in court… https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/san-francisco-officers-charged-destroying-evidence-84177415
- 19 April 2022 : Fun fact, the SFPD police union is representing the officers, as it has for many other criminally-charged police in the past. Do other unions need to keep criminal defense lawyers on-call for their members? Interesting use of dues. https://sfstandard.com/criminal-justice/sf-police-officers-arrested-gun-charge/
- 19 April 2022 : Today is what you call a "bad news day" for SFPD. 3 cops arrested and the board of supervisors has to pass an ordinance to prevent them from criminalizing rape victims. https://twitter.com/meganrcassidy/status/1516530736819413001

- 19 April 2022 : Destruction of evidence case is just another in the many stories that San Franciscans have been sharing about police not doing the most basic aspects of their jobs. Unfortunately that is the culture that the police union has created & then blaming others. https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/bayarea/heatherknight/article/SF-police-crime-16931399.php

- 19 April 2022 : "At nearly $12 per submitted signature, the Boudin recall on June’s ballot has the highest per-signature costs in recent San Francisco history." Guess that's what you get when you have goofball republican billionaires funding it... https://sfstandard.com/politics/what-does-the-unusually-high-expense-behind-the-chesa-boudin-recalls-signature-gathering-efforts-mean/ via @sfstandard
- 19 April 2022 : So it's looking like SFPD sat on these two criminal cases involving 3 SFPD officers (one former), so as not to negatively impact Stangel trial. And only sought warrant here after the jury in that case came back with acquittal.
- 19 April 2022 : Remember SFPD & their police union launched a massive (and incredibly dishonest) media campaign to discredit the DA's office during the trial. Seemed like a pretty clear attempt to influence jurors not to trust DA. Which worked, even with clear video evidence of a brutal beating.
- 19 April 2022 : Here's the question: the destroying evidence case happened on July 3, 2021, 9 months ago. Why did SFPD sit on this case until now? Think the Ofc Stangel trial had something to do with it? Not wanting to release damaging info while another officer on trial? https://twitter.com/HamasakiLaw/status/1500971505647173635?s=20&t=oYUhypaaf6Gqq_CDxt5mcQ

- 19 April 2022 : Legit like, do you think this kid, his family, his community is going to have a good relationship with cops after this? Picture your kid getting treated like that over some dumb kid shit we all did. You think “coffee with a cop” is gonna fix this?
- 19 April 2022 : And you wonder why people don’t trust cops to do the right thing? Not one of these grown cops stepped in to say, hey maybe we shouldn’t treat a little kid like this over nothing. https://twitter.com/hunndohefner/status/1516069289362706437
- 19 April 2022 : Some cases may get higher or lower priority, but the most important part is getting it done within the 72 hours they have to make a decision if the person is in custody. Which is why some offices have prosecutors working over the weekend.
- 19 April 2022 : I’m not sure, but if I remember right, this was part of rebooking. Which is where DAs decide if there is evidence to charge a crime. If a person left rebooking, there would actually be no change because a DA still has to review every case that comes in the door. https://twitter.com/brandonharami/status/1516234524606164996

- 18 April 2022 : When the recall crowd bleats on about homeless people, or not enough prosecutions, this is the end result of a return to "tough-on-crime" policing and prosecution. Any one of them willing to spend 30 years in a cell to support their goal?
- 18 April 2022 : Imagine waking up every day in prison for 30 years knowing you didn't do it. Confined to a small cell, no amenities, dangerous conditions, away from friends and family, because...they wanted to catch someone, and anyone was good enough. Close the case, call it a win.
- 18 April 2022 : You don't have to like our DA's focus on working to instill legitimacy to the criminal justice system (a near impossible task), but who believes we should be incarcerating innocent people? That's how our system has operated forever in San Francisco & US. We need to change this.
- 18 April 2022 : 2 dirty SFPD officers, Art Gerrans & Jim Crowley (also busted for another wrongful conviction) stole 30 years from this man's life. Ciria was friends with victim, didn't match the description, 2 alibi witnesses, didn't matter to SFPD/DA. https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/He-spent-30-years-in-prison-for-a-murder-he-17088441.php?utm_campaign=CMS%20Sharing%20Tools%20(Premium)&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral via @sfchronicle

- 18 April 2022 : Anyways, I’ve never heard of a police commissioner missing 40% of meetings, that’s insane. Google “40% of cops” to learn more.
- 18 April 2022 : His other main supporter, the LAPD police union, has too many scandals to list, but a recent one was refusal to mask or get vaccinated. Caruso’s pals in LAPD insisted on spreading covid to as many people as possible, likely killing thousands of people. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/will-a-city-mandate-cause-thousands-of-unvaccinated-l-a-cops-to-walk-off-the-job-were-about-to-find-out-1237989/
- 18 April 2022 : Bratton was run out of NYC over his racism and corruption in NYPD. Even MTV called out Bratton for his racist policies and use of code words like “thugs” to describe rap artists. This is the guy Caruso looks to for policing advice? https://www.mtv.com/news/2885950/bill-bratton-ti-shooting-racism/
- 18 April 2022 : If you wondered why LAPD’s toxic police union and elder racist Bill Bratton are supporting him (even over a fellow LAPD officer!), it’s because Caruso never failed to “back the blue” when LAPD did crimes and violence against the community. With friends like those…
- 18 April 2022 : LA’s police commission has strong oversight power, but under Caruso they nearly universally failed to use it in any way that might actually challenge the old-school, old boys culture of violent and racist policing by LAPD. We’ve had the same problem in San Francisco.
- 18 April 2022 : Some of the meetings be skipped: “reviews shootings and the use of force by officers; a performance review for Bratton.” I’d guess he skipped to avoid having to maybe offer the slightest criticism or maybe ask LAPD why they are engaged in so much police violence and killings.
- 18 April 2022 : This is a perfect description of the failures of civilian oversight, Caruso basically let the worst elements of LAPD and notorious racist hack Bill Bratton run the show and just showed up to polish his badge and clap in support. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2022-04-18/rick-caruso-police-commission-absences

- 18 April 2022 : Police killings make the news, but the everyday police violence, the stops, searches, harassment, beatings, false arrest, wrongful imprisonment are part of the everyday existence in some communities. Pete is too busy polishing badges to see or accept that.
- 18 April 2022 : Petey cites the study for crime, but ignores violence, because that doesn’t fit his little racist theory. Black people in the US are subject to police violence unseen in any other country. Petey should know that as an ex-cop, who likely dispensed violence against Black community.

If we only had 100s more police, we would do our job, really this time. https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/bayarea/heatherknight/article/SF-police-crime-16931399.php
- 14 April 2022 : (1) For police unions, overtime is top priority. A recent example was the Union Square "holiday bonus" in which "$2.4 million in police overtime spending from Nov. 20 to Dec. 10, so cops could mostly just walk the area and stand near boarded-up windows." https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/justinphillips/article/In-San-Francisco-affluence-equals-influence-when-16911457.php
- 14 April 2022 : Good analysis. Also, police will always claim they are understaffed b/c: (1) It justifies the massive overtime spends, (2) They can blame it every time they fail to do their job, (3) Police unions want members, for money + political power https://www.sfchronicle.com/crime/article/Is-the-San-Francisco-Police-Department-actually-17079550.php?utm_campaign=CMS%20Sharing%20Tools%20(Premium)&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral via @sfchronicle

- 14 April 2022 : "To argue that racism is built into policing isn’t to argue that all cops are racist. It’s that policing as we know it today was conceived, developed and honed over a period in our history during which racism was quite literally codified into the law." https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/04/13/black-police-know-racism-law-enforcement/?tid=ss_tw
- 14 April 2022 : Mind you, it’s not fair to call mayoral appointees “puppets” as some are saying. They have complete independence on things that don’t matter, issue a resolution supporting blah. But when it comes to power & control, the mayor controls their votes.
- 14 April 2022 : It’s sad/funny/tragic to watch fellow commissioners agree with you and the community, only to get a call or text and all of a sudden change their position. But that’s the way it works, since well before I got on commission. If this map survives, the right will have total control.
- 14 April 2022 : BOS appointees are usually in the minority, so it is impossible to get anything done that isn’t supported by our conservative mayors. I never had a single supervisor tell or even suggest which way I should vote in 4 years. So BOS appointees have independence, but not the votes.
- 14 April 2022 : This is the dirty little secret of San Francisco politics. Mayoral appointees on boards & commissions follow orders from the mayor’s office. Mayor has majority appt on most, so mayor controls all the “independent” commissions. The people of SF have reps through supervisors, but.. https://twitter.com/mlnow/status/1514384970156056587

- 13 April 2022 : Anyways, Kevin has done good reporting, but holy hell this one is a stinker. I can't imagine what possessed him or LAT to run this, but I hope they will take a moment and think before adding to the racism in LA and especially policing and the criminal justice system.
- 13 April 2022 : LAT does some good criminal justice reporting, this analysis showed that LASD stopped 44,000 bicycle riders with 70% Latino, contraband less than 1/2 percent of the time. I'm sure a number of them were also labeled "gang members." https://www.latimes.com/california/newsletter/2021-11-08/bike-stops-la-sheriff-deputies-latino-essential-california
- 13 April 2022 : So in LAPD land, they stop you for no reason in the "wrong" neighborhood, you get a Field Identification (FI) card, labeling you a gang member. LAPD is incentivized to label as many young people as gang members, so that if they get arrested, it is a "gang case" & tack on years.
- 13 April 2022 : Are there gangs in LA? Sure, and there is a way to discuss this without racializing it and criminalizing Blackness. As Kevin knows, LAPD has a long and sordid history of fabricating gang membership for young Black men. Why not mention this? Seems relevant https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2021-09-15/prosecutors-suspect-four-more-lapd-officers-gang-labeling
- 13 April 2022 : A whole story, basically a press release for overfunding the police, and encouraging anti-Blackness. Let's start with the obvious - pinning it all on "gangs." We all know what they mean, just like "thug" "gang" has is now used as code for the n-word. https://www.ebony.com/news/thug-is-the-new-n-word-504/
- 13 April 2022 : I am actually stunned that LAT put out this type of racist fearmongering police propaganda. Black & Brown "Gangs" are sending out gang members to target YOU!! Only LAPD & the police will save the good white people of LA. https://twitter.com/PplsCityCouncil/status/1514021820344594432

- 12 April 2022 : (1) the price of oil has plummeted, it’s profiteering by US companies now, (2) ethanol (from corn) has been around for decades, we don’t use it b/c pollution/climate change, (3) Midwest corn growers have been lobbying for ethanol & Dems want votes, but they will still go trump https://twitter.com/speakerpelosi/status/1513981528598003720

- 8 April 2022 : Might be a good time to sit this one out
- 8 April 2022 : Please stop
- 8 April 2022 : Who?
- 8 April 2022 : If there was a single member of the SF DA recall crowd who was half as honest as this, they might have a point. But for them, it is all about winning, and returning to the harshest most racist justice system possible. They should be judge accordingly.
- 8 April 2022 : All this to say, I don't like Schubert, but it is also not fair to judge her on this one case. So when we look at simple prosecution stats, it never tells us much other than very basic info. And drawing conclusions from this info is hard, because criminal cases are complicated.
- 8 April 2022 : Even though DA Schubert is trash, it is hard to say what she should have or shouldn't have done, because we haven't seen all the evidence, talked to the witnesses, assessed the case. If it went to trial, victim doesn't show up, dude walks completely free.
- 8 April 2022 : DV can also be tricky, witnesses don't want to cooperate, especially with these types of sentences. They may think dude is bad, but also don't want to be part of a racist and cruel system that does nothing to actually address their safety, outside of imprisoning the person.
- 8 April 2022 : No wonder Sacramento is turning into the crime and murder capitol under DA Schubert's watch, right? Well, no. This is dumb and embarrassing. Cases and people are complicated. Could she have proved it all? Maybe, maybe not? It was domestic violence, which DA's always pursue, but
- 8 April 2022 : @SchubertForAG also let him off on PC 136.1, witness intimidation, which carries up to 4 years in prison, and is also a strike. So if she hadn't let him off with a sweet deal, he would be a 3-striker = 25 to life if he committed certain crimes in the future. Wow, that's crazy!
- 8 April 2022 : Schubert let him off for kidnapping, which is punishable by up to 8 years in prison, plus, because it was a strike and a violent offense, he would have to serve 85% of the actual time, unlike what he pled to, which he only had to do somewhere around 50% of the time. Sweet deal!
- 8 April 2022 : Let's play the right-wing DA recall game. Omg, omg, DA Schubert gave a sweetheart deal to one of the accused mass killers in Sacramento, dropping the most serious charges - kidnapping and witness intimidation charges, letting him out up to 12 years early. Plus both are strikes!!! https://twitter.com/gilduran76/status/1512225184874328064

- 7 April 2022 : Just like we are seeing in Sacramento, over-policing and “tough-on-crime” policies and politicians are causing violent crime to surge. Cop-mayor Adams unleashing police on civilians has already caused a loss of respect for our laws. https://nypost.com/2022/04/06/major-crimes-continue-to-soar-in-nyc-despite-return-to-broken-windows-policing/

- 6 April 2022 : Tucker, of course, did not link to the original thread, because the receipts are clear here. A white lady got caught looting schools, and tried to call the cops on a Black man to take the fall. Vile, despicable stuff. Here's the thread, judge for yourself https://twitter.com/minilek/status/1511358525179453440?s=20&t=4drghIIXha_6gQCgUlvwag
- 6 April 2022 : So Tucker could have simply asked, hey Boaler, did you really charge 5k/hour and enrich yourself while schools struggle to pay for supplies? Or did she actually get the answer and leave it out? A first year journalism student knows to check facts, why hide them here?
- 6 April 2022 : Tucker works overtime writing "Many public and private university professors often charge $10,000 or more for one-time speaking fees..." in an attempt to justify Boaler's looting. And then tries to deny that Boaler actually charged that much "seemingly." But she interviewed her!
- 6 April 2022 : Our history of white women calling police on Black men has resulted in a seemingly endless stream of police violence and killings, yet Tucker has no time for that. Nelson's life, to Tucker, does not matter. It is all about Boaler, who heroically looted schools for 5k/hour.
- 6 April 2022 : Tucker admits that Boaler threatened Nelson, a Black man, with the police. But then quickly transitions into how Boaler is the real victim here. Tucker, who has faced accusations of anti-Asian and anti-Black bias, ignores the impact of calling the police on a Black man.
- 6 April 2022 : Sigh, of course Jill Tucker had to jump in to support the white Stanford professor @joboaler who threatened Black Cal professor @minilek with the police for pointing out that Boaler she was looting the public schools for $5000.00/hour. https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/California-math-wars-get-ugly-Accusations-of-17060072.php?utm_campaign=CMS%20Sharing%20Tools%20(Premium)&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral via @sfchronicle

- 5 April 2022 : The problem for her and her police union pals is that she staked her candidacy on the idea that mass incarceration works, that if you lock up enough Black & Latinx people, you get public safety. It’s a lie, but the media has conditioned people to believe it.
- 5 April 2022 : I don’t think that Schubert is directly responsible for this mass shooting, but the culture of lawlessness she has created protecting dirty & violent cops set an example. It teaches people that the laws are only there to protect certain people, so why should you follow the law?
- 5 April 2022 : While never a serious candidate, this pretty much ends @SchubertForAG ’s run for AG. Her “tough-on-crime” policies have been a disaster for the people of Sacramento with crime, violence, and murder skyrocketing under her watch, and now this. Tragic. https://twitter.com/latimes/status/1511141624058814465

- 4 April 2022 : Whoa, bad news for little Alex. The problem with constantly lying and making things up, is that little oath and perjury charges. Al Capone went down over taxes, what’s gonna bring down Al Villanueva? So many traps to be set! https://twitter.com/pplscitycouncil/status/1511071390216110089

- 4 April 2022 : Amazon is banning workers from saying certain words, including “restroom” likely because of Amazon’s history of making workers pee in bottles, instead of restroom breaks. https://twitter.com/kenklippenstein/status/1511063770356924417

- 4 April 2022 : Exploiting the poor and working class has basically been Garry's life work, but the DA is the bad guy for wanting to stop wage theft. I dunno, to me, stealing tips from your workers, who are already only making starvation/poverty wages seems bad. https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/carolineodonovan/instacart-workers-revolt-over-tips-reveals-a-big-problem
- 4 April 2022 : Garry has been big mad at the SF DA for holding worker-abusing companies like his accountable. How mean! Garry apparently thought it was okay for workers to be paid 80 cents per hour of work. That seems bad to me. https://www.workingwa.org/instacart-eighty-cents
- 4 April 2022 : Angry pocket-NFT Garry Tan is at it again, railing against a reporter for...uh...reporting on publicly available information. Garry's claim to fame is investing in Instacart, a company with a long and storied history of abusing workers, stealing from them, and corruption. https://twitter.com/uhshanti/status/1511044704812425219

- 4 April 2022 : From the amazing advocates + some history of the case https://twitter.com/theamirali/status/1510982794385711117
- 4 April 2022 : In police brutality cases in California, prosecutors almost always charge PC 148, resisting arrest. I’ve been told that they do it to “avoid liability” aka getting sued. Getting the conviction makes a civil action harder/impossible, because resistance “justifies” use of force.
- 4 April 2022 : Amazing, but was wondering potential downside impact https://twitter.com/hamasakilaw/status/1511017126416760837
- 4 April 2022 : Important decision, wondering if this will lead to prosecutors not dismissing bad cases to avoid liability. It’s easy to squeeze a plea out of someone in our mass incarceration system. Facing 5 years, but wrongly accused, do you take conviction to get out and avoid prison? https://twitter.com/mjs_dc/status/1510981444042174464
- 4 April 2022 : What’s amazing here is that this McDonald’s is actually within feet on a police station. Overfunding police has never prevented crime, because cops don’t prevent crime. Ideally they investigate and solve it - but that has been getting rarer too. https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/S-F-s-fast-food-restaurants-make-a-high-number-17049881.php

- 4 April 2022 : @sacbee_news has at least 14 articles on the horrible mass shooting this weekend, yet none blame the “dumb-on-crime” far-right DA, nor the overfunded police. In San Francisco, someone spills a glass of milk, and we get a 13-part series of how it’s the DA’s fault. https://twitter.com/sacbee_news/status/1510748183822958592
- 4 April 2022 : I think they hope if they grovel enough maybe their startup will get funded? Sad way to do business, but tech seems structured like that.
- 4 April 2022 : It’s interesting that the DA recall’s main funders are tech VCs who profit from exploiting the poor and working class, and are facing civil and criminal scrutiny from the DA. Cool idea that you can buy your way out of accountability. https://twitter.com/lahepler/status/1510695189613998082

- 3 April 2022 : Gun control has failed to keep communities safe, just like mass incarceration, & overfunding police. Until we put money into communities to address the root causes of violence, don’t expect things to change. https://www.sacbee.com/news/local/article260068725.html
- 3 April 2022 : Exactly, both have been started, funded, and promoted by the worst-of-the-worst police unions scared of being held accountable for their crimes, with the support of the far-right media.

- 1 April 2022 : Kinda weird how the far-right in Sacramento isn’t recalling DA Schubert aka “California’s most deadly DA” over the crime/murder surge on her watch.

- 11 March 2022 : Overfunding police doesn't necessarily increase crime, EXCEPT when those funds (in LASD 10%! of the budget) are taking from education, social services, housing, treatment, etc. Which is what LA has been doing for decades.
- 11 March 2022 : Just like nearly every other police department in the country, LASD was overfunded again in the 21-22 budget cycle. A time when gun violence surged in LA.

- 8 March 2022 : The push to force workers back into offices to appease the real estate lobby is not only an attack on workers & families, but may result in ⬆️ 30 million gallons of gas/day + ⬆️ pollution. Workers bear cost of increased gas prices, $ which then goes to some pretty bad actors. https://twitter.com/will_bunch/status/1501216298033897472
- 7 March 2022 : With this attack on the justice system, Chief Scott & the police union ended any hope that I had for SFPD. One day we may have leadership in City Hall and SFPD that is willing to change the culture of corruption and brutality of this dept. That day seems further off than ever.
- 7 March 2022 : My term on the police commission is up next month, I will not be renewing. While I believe that we have done some good work, we have failed at changing the culture. The rape DNA and racist NFT scandals in just the last few weeks confirm that. But the MOU battle was it for me.
- 7 March 2022 : Instead of allowing justice and accountability, SFPD, once again, determined that they were above the law. Years of reform efforts, oversight by the US DOJ and Cal DOJ, out the window. To protect the right of SFPD officers to beat the shit out of Black people. Reform has failed.
- 7 March 2022 : On the eve of trial, Chief Scott issued a press release attacking the legitimacy of the prosecution, which blew up into national media. While the claims were ultimately proved false, relentless media coverage questioned the integrity of the prosecution. https://twitter.com/HamasakiLaw/status/1493280592028266498?s=20&t=ZB6O6E0Gf0LSGqlRTNivhQ

- 4 March 2022 : Even in summer the average person only spends 1-2 hours outdoors according to a lazy Google search I just did.
- 4 March 2022 : As noted below, yes, being that one victim can have a huge impact on the person, their families and people around them. The increased perception of danger/crime/violence. But what drives most of the fear is the histrionic reporting about high profile crimes without perspective.
- 4 March 2022 : Now, say we got more granular, break down cities by neighborhoods, race, wealth, and I would guess that the wealthiest neighborhoods, primarily white, would have to live even longer to be a victim of a crime of violence.
- 4 March 2022 : I mean, yes and no. I think that when you are in the moment, the emotion and impact are very real. But hopefully, once things settle down, we move forward. I realize each person is different, our fears should be based on the world we live in, not just what's on the nightly news.
- 4 March 2022 : Waiting for one of you nerds to correct my math…
- 4 March 2022 : 11 times for every 1,000,000 hours. So roughly 1 chance per 100k hours. Assume person spends 2 hrs/day outside = 1 chance in 50k days, 50k/365 = 136.99 years. So if you live to 136.99 years, maybe one chance of being victim of robbery/assault. https://twitter.com/aaronchalfin/status/1499746506898919425

- 1 March 2022 : This is the problem with a lot of police reform, it may look good in a press release, but when you peel it back, it leaves things the same or even worse than before.
- 1 March 2022 : My optimism was misguided, this is trash. In order to detain someone police must have reasonable suspicion. Adding in (5) lowers the standard for detention to basically anything, being in a "high crime area" would do, even if that is where you live, through no fault of your own. https://twitter.com/LAPDHQ/status/1498754320312897536

- 1 March 2022 : Not encouraging drug use, but dunno, lots of college kids also get through finals on this so I'm sure it is okay under that presidential medical supervision.

- 1 March 2022 : I think Biden's biggest weakness right now is that he followed two big personalities, and is kinda a dud in speeches. JFK, one of the most popular prez in history used to get jacked up on stimulants, Ritalin & methamphetamine. I'd be ok if Joe got a little pep in his step.
- 1 March 2022 : My personal opinion is that Obama should have just dropped him with a solid right to that weak jaw last time they met. Would have lost all credibility as a tough guy, no matter how many shirtless photos he posts.

- 28 February 2022 : There are really good people inside the dept, trying to bring about change. But they need to stand up and fight for SFPD. Get rid of the toxic old guard, throw out the ones who have brought morale so low, who keep embarrassing & humiliating the dept. It's time for real leaders.
- 28 February 2022 : I wish that there was a simple solution to all of this, but 4 years on the commission, and the recent meltdown has convinced me that the police union is still very much in charge, and until leadership there changes, nothing will get better for the dept or the City.
- 28 February 2022 : Even @hknightsf has been documenting the failure of SFPD to do even the bare minimum work to protect the people of this city. And this is the fault of everyone else...but SFPD. It has always been this way, because City Hall has accepted it this way. https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/bayarea/heatherknight/article/SF-police-crime-16931399.php
- 28 February 2022 : I don't need to do another thread on the police union now, there are literally achieves on even just the recent racist, bigoted, homophobic scandals. And now, they are complaining that accountability for 1 officer is making them too sad to do their job? https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/sfpd-text-messaging-scandal
- 28 February 2022 : This is the whole bad apple vs. system issue. Yes, we have wed out some bad apples over time. But the system of policing in SF, the culture, is still led by the POA, an antiquated "old boys club" who think they still run the dept and city, and undermine positive reforms.
- 28 February 2022 : SFPD & the police union have constantly complained about morale, blaming reform, accountability, and even my twitter(?). But morale is always about leadership, from the chief, but primarily from the police union, which has set a toxic culture in SFPD. https://www.sfexaminer.com/opinion/opinion-s-f-police-chief-bill-scotts-complaints-of-low-morale-are-code-for-something-else/
- 28 February 2022 : I get that the goal is also to take out the DA and maybe this helps either way, but for a dept that has struggled to regain credibility, scandal-after-scandal - including the rape DNA & racist NFT in the last two weeks - it's time to look inward at the problem.
- 28 February 2022 : I think this trial has done a lot more damage to SFPD than whatever the verdict will be. While I believe that good incremental reforms have been made, the way the dept circled the wagons to protect what looks like a dangerous and violent cop, there's no coming back from that.
- 28 February 2022 : It really might go any way. But a win for the defense shouldn't signal open season for the police union to continue advocating violence by it's members. I think the dept lost a lot of faith in this City with its conduct the last few weeks, no win is gonna bring that back.
- 28 February 2022 : I don't know what the jury is going to do. The video looks horrible and the defense, at least as far as it has been reported, seems to just blame the victim with a heaping side of racism. The judge let in a lot of info about the victim that normally wouldn't be admitted, so...
- 28 February 2022 : The police union has managed to squeeze every last dollar out of this city, fought reasonable policy, and defended sometimes horrific misconduct by their members. The other side of all of the benefits, the slightest accountability - they have been protected from for decades.
- 28 February 2022 : If you didn't already know why SFPD's police union and the dept melted down so publicly over the last few weeks - this is it. SFPD has never in its history had an officer held accountable for violence or death. This feels existential to the "above-the-law" mentality of the union. https://twitter.com/NicholasIovino/status/1498416769765044224

- 28 February 2022 : I’ll add again for those in the back, fuck Putin and anyone that stands with him, but this is slimy political opportunism. Scott saw a chance to prey on the invasion of Ukraine to attack public school unions and teachers, and ultimately students.
- 28 February 2022 : Seriously, this whole ordeal is such an embarrassment for @Scott_Wiener and the rest of the union-busters/school privatizers. Using the horrors of Ukraine to try and tear public schools down is vile and beneath contempt. We can debate schools without the whole McCarthy tactics. https://twitter.com/armanddoma/status/1498186031660605443

- 27 February 2022 : Yea, I don’t agree with the statement either, but it’s in a personal capacity so who cares? Unless of course you are the errand boy for charter schools and destroying public education is your whole grift. Can’t wait for Scott’s next attacks on CRT and teachers.
- 27 February 2022 : This is incredibly dumb even by San Francisco politics standards. Commie hunter Scott has tracked down a teacher with “bad” opinions, let’s get the pitchforks out.

- 18 February 2022 : “The beatdown was at a level of savagery I just can’t wrap my brain around,” says a retired 30-year officer. “It couldn’t be any clearer that these officers just decided to go hands on and then beat the crap out of the guy.”

- 16 February 2022 : I’ve watched this battle play out for the last 4 years on the commission, the police union believing they are above the law. There are good people in the dept, but those good people need to speak up now. The City can’t take this lack of leadership any longer.
- 16 February 2022 : The police union sets the culture, it is that way everywhere in the country. The fact that some police feel sad and aren’t doing their job, is a public safety risk to the City. When cops are told that it’s ok to do a half-ass job cause they are sad, that’s on the leaders.
- 16 February 2022 : Leadership means leading your organization and staff - and if morale is low that falls on those in charge. For decades the police union in San Francisco has been one of the most toxic in the country - supporting biased policing, corruption, and indifference to the City residents.
- 16 February 2022 : Federal prosecutors have a new tactic to prevent people with serious medical/terminal illness, or whose children become orphaned, from being released - they force them to sign away their right to petition the judge.

- 14 February 2022 : What type of culture in policing says it is okay to use the trust and confidence of a rape survivor to then prosecute her for a property crime?

- 14 February 2022 : Right, another issue is how to separate out reality from the media’s saturation of all crime coverage since George Floyd. The police unions and the right have been preying on the community to get more money for police, not the people.
- 14 February 2022 : Only if we need to, as long as the details are good by Wednesday, meaning the MOU is maintained while any issues are resolved, I think we go that route.
- 14 February 2022 : I don't have answers, it is such a difficult topic. I think a lot of folks dropped out of the movement that was happening because of the profound anti-Blackness of some of those on the Asian right who the media was amplifying. Not sure where all this goes, but welcome discussion
- 14 February 2022 : The Asian community in America is not a monolith, 30% voted for trump and have been weaponizing this real fear to call for more police, longer sentences, even where there is no evidence that incidents are bias-related. Which, to me anyways, hurts the cause - which is important.
- 14 February 2022 : And even though the MOU will remain, whether the jury holds the police union member accountable for beating a Black man, breaking multiple bones, is an open question. As much as we might enjoying seeing the police union lose the MOU campaign, it's not over.
- 14 February 2022 : This was always about the jury, the MOU was never an issue that needed the immediate action the dept took. But it did create a lot of press coverage questioning the integrity of the DA's office who is prosecuting the police union member. Sure, they would like to escape oversight.
- 14 February 2022 : As many of us said at the time, there was no way on earth that the police union was going back to investigating itself, so why this whole press campaign? Because there is a jury in San Francisco sitting on the first case EVER brought for excessive force against an SFPD officer.
- 14 February 2022 : Here's the original post, who tf is the "founder" Eriq and why does anyone think that all of sudden Eminem called Eriq up and was like, yea, man, I was gonna kneel, but NFL said no. Can you put that in a story? https://twitter.com/eriqgardner/status/1492917469089918976?s=20&t=IsYeYTIrX6oEb6Y7aOnCdA
- 14 February 2022 : The other obvious point - why not Snoop, Kendrick, Dre, Mary? Why is only the white guy allowed to kneel? Everything about this reads like a brain-dead PR stunt.
- 14 February 2022 : Oh yea, reported through “puck” a startup media biz, not a regular trusted journalist. Definitely not a PR stunt https://twitter.com/eriqgardner/status/1493079799681613824
- 14 February 2022 : Eric Adams would have banned that super bowl halftime performance
- 14 February 2022 : it's okay, he later clarified that he's a "comedian" https://twitter.com/thatdaneshguy/status/1493063595839655937
- 14 February 2022 : LA are gonna wake up tomorrow shocked to realize that they actually have a football team
- 14 February 2022 : so the takeaway is the NFL is okay with kneeling, as long as it is a white guy doing it, cool
- 14 February 2022 : What do I win? https://twitter.com/HamasakiLaw/status/1493006280151080962?s=20&t=SQX86DcrxRmARp1IFTtBaA
- 14 February 2022 : Like I said, that story was fake. I'm guessing it was a PR op to get people talking about it and then add credibility once they did it. https://twitter.com/JuddLegum/status/1493034192971653123
- 14 February 2022 : Even for hardcore "war on drugs" types, you can have your failed war on drugs, while ALSO saving the lives of the people you claim are the target of your concern.
- 13 February 2022 : Eminem & Snoop Dog to prepare special dish "mom's spaghetti" live on stage and serve the whole stadium personally.
- 13 February 2022 : Dr. Dre to show up driving an actual police car, joining in a blue lives matter dance party also reported by same account, sings kid rock songs, also starts a chant of "let's go brandon."
- 13 February 2022 : This seems fake as hell, but folks are spreading it. Eminem asked permission before doing something that everyone knows the NFL absolutely detests and freaks out about? What about Eminem makes you think this is real? https://twitter.com/MattBelloni/status/1492926430434377733
- 13 February 2022 : Can't wait to watch the superbowl ads to find out which celebs are absolute soulless crypto grifters
- 13 February 2022 : "I just wanted to connect with people in my neighborhood and start building back the thin fabric of community," he said, "It felt like the right time to do it." We could use more community building right now in the City! https://www.kqed.org/news/11905016/san-franciscan-serves-up-800-plus-pancakes-to-bring-joy-to-his-neighborhood
- 13 February 2022 : Housing isn't really my lane, though it is everyone's lane now, I guess. Trying to learn a bit more, but dumbfounded at arguments like these that seem to only favor real estate developers, not people who actually need housing.

- 13 February 2022 : 4th protects against unreasonable searches & seizures, seems like shaking down passengers for proof of fare is clear violation, just like a baseless traffic and pedestrian stop.

- 13 February 2022 : Or police which is their other go-to source on criminal justice

- 9 February 2022 : There is always a separate justice system for cops, for decades prosecutors have protected them by refusing to file charges, even in the most extreme cases. Now that the LA DA is seeking to treat police like everyone else, judges are jumping in to back the blue.
- 9 February 2022 : LAPD wanted to put more Black & Latinx people in gang database so they claimed that people admitted to being in gangs. Body-cam shows it never happened.

Judge says, great, dismissed! https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2022-02-08/judge-tosses-case-against-three-of-six-lapd-officers-charged-in-gang-labeling-scandal
- 8 February 2022 : It doesn't, but especially with Black victims of police violence, the police and their media allies will share the criminal history, or anything else that might paint the victim as a "bad guy." Don't kid yourselves, tho, it works, and it may work here. But it is still disgusting.
- 8 February 2022 : We see this in every case of police violence/killing, Eric Garner sold loose cigarettes, so it was okay to choke the life out of him. Here, Stangel's whole defense is that Spiers committed DV at some point before officers arrived. How does that justify what Stangel beating him?
- 8 February 2022 : The problem with this is that there is video evidence of the victim calmly on his phone when officers rush to attack him. Whatever may have transpired before is of little relevance. Just because someone broke the law earlier, doesn't make it open season for a brutal beating.
- 8 February 2022 : One of the things the police union has been doing effectively has been putting the victim on trial. While generally the public recoils when defense lawyers attack victims, it seems to be the only defense here - the victim is a bad guy, therefore the police should break his bones. https://twitter.com/NicholasIovino/status/1491166472676470784

- 8 February 2022 : Should be more clear, I believe this process started in 2016, but the current MOU was signed in 2019. That is why the first prosecution arising out of it is hitting trial now, in 2022.
- 8 February 2022 : "When the Obama-era DOJ was brought in to recommend changes for the SFPD, one recommendation was that the DA’s Office take the lead in investigating police violence. In fact, SFPD itself in 2020 cited the MOU as evidence that the SFPD was complying with the recommendations."
- 8 February 2022 : "This is about the San Francisco Police Officers Association, the widely discredited operation that defends rogue and sometimes killer cops, pushing its weight around and trying to undermine a fundamental reform that can help hold cops accountable." https://48hills.org/2022/02/police-chief-undermines-his-own-departments-reforms/

- 8 February 2022 : “Police Commission Vice President Cindy Elias said the chief made a “hasty and poorly timed decision” when “there was no emergency.” She said having the department take the lead on investigations into police shootings by its own officers “seems like a huge step backwards.”
- 8 February 2022 : BOS President Shamann Walton joined Cohen in criticizing Scott for pulling out of the agreement. “We have all fought so hard for police reform and SFPD cannot be the lead on investigating officer-involved shootings,” Walton said. “That would most certainly be a backwards step.”

- 5 February 2022 : Doesn’t it feel like corporate media is absolutely burying this story? Totally destroys with the narrative that reform is done and now we can get back to tough-on-crime as usual. https://twitter.com/reneejon/status/1489787639628804096
- 5 February 2022 : There is a CA law that prohibits communicating in court with someone in custody - but there are actually a lot of decent judges and deputies who look the other way or even allow brief greetings, cause they aren’t monsters.
- 5 February 2022 : Our criminal justice system is designed to destroy families and support networks, judges and bailiffs screaming at families for saying “I love you” to their loved ones in custody is an everyday occurrence. https://twitter.com/asfleischman/status/1489981296738717700

- 5 February 2022 : “This is the result of a long campaign by the police union against the chief to try and bend him to their will,” Hamasaki said. “Over the last six months, we’ve seen indications that this was coming.” “But I honestly did not expect it to come like this.”
- 5 February 2022 : “Boudin said it was “no coincidence” the chief’s letter arrived ahead of the Stangel case going to trial next week. He also noted that the chief’s decision to pull out of the agreement will put public safety at risk, as police shootings have gone down since it was signed.”
- 5 February 2022 : Has any prosecutor caved to the police union quicker than Bragg? Ran undercover as a reformer and now bleating out “tough-on-crime” policies like a pro. What’s up in NYC? Low crime and act like it’s the 90s. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/04/nyregion/manhattan-da-alvin-bragg-memo-prosecution.html
- 4 February 2022 : My sense is that folks in the media are not happy about getting played by the police union stunt with the fake "missing information" and "suppressed evidence." Which a judge has now found was disinfo. I expect more pushback to follow.
- 4 February 2022 : "Instead of undermining faith in our justice system with these unfortunate spectacles, Scott and Boudin should get in the same room, talk through their disagreements, fix any problems, pledge to do better and — most importantly — keep SFPD firmly on the path of reform."
- 4 February 2022 : "Curiously, Scott’s public row with Boudin occurred one day before the San Francisco Police Officers Association was set to “discuss a possible ‘no-confidence’ vote against the chief,” The police union postponed the meeting after Scott announced plans to end the agreement..."
- 4 February 2022 : "the issue at stake here is more important than either [Boudin or Scott]. The agreement between the SFPD and the DA’s office, signed during the tenure of Suzy Loftus but renewed last July, was designed to fix a broken system in which police pretended to investigate themselves."
- 4 February 2022 : SFPD Chief "Scott accuses Boudin of “politicizing” police brutality, but the chief’s oddly-timed actions also smack of politics. He appears to be using a relatively minor paperwork issue as an excuse to blow up the agreement." @sfexaminer coming strong https://www.sfexaminer.com/news/editorial-police-chiefs-spat-with-chesa-boudin-no-excuse-to-cancel-police-reform/
- 4 February 2022 : This is it - all of the hard work the police unions and media have put in to erase the legacy of George Floyd is coming undone. https://twitter.com/BreeNewsome/status/1489729037463343116
- 4 February 2022 : This is what happens when police have no oversight or accountability. Why would these officers still be on the force after driving around shooting at civilians for fun during the George Floyd protests? https://twitter.com/deenafaywinter/status/1489707518498533377
- 4 February 2022 : A lot of us have had to shift our focus to the media for reform, since NYT and others have been advocating for a return to the bad old days of "tough-on-crime" policing. Will there be accountability for the media here? Scaring Amir & others into guns as a solution to low crime.
- 4 February 2022 : Gunned down as he woke, lawful gun for protection, where's the NRA? Where is the media? Where's the outrage? Is @nytimes going to do a glowing profile of Amir (a victim), like they did the LAPD officer (a killer) who murdered 2 people in a retail store?
- 4 February 2022 : Lots of people got guns over covid, while stuck inside watching the news and social media, amplifying that fear - even while most crime stayed stagnant or fell. Amir armed himself to protect himself after all of the media/police union hysteria, and was killed by the same police.
- 4 February 2022 : No matter the level of crime in your county, the local and national news has been relentless. We need to rollback the gains of the community, and re-empower police. But all of those hysterical stories, whether over shoplifting (see SF), or actual serious crime - scared people.
- 4 February 2022 : It's not just a single article, there are literally archives on the scandals and abuse when the police union has run the dept. As it seems set to do again today. https://twitter.com/HamasakiLaw/status/1433817605848977410?s=20&t=ORHHDxY9sDN4PfUtfOuedA
- 4 February 2022 : With SFPD's decision to unilaterally withdraw from accountability, the police union is in full control. And that is bad for everyone, not just Black & Latinx, the poor, homeless, marginalized who have been subject to so much abuse, but all of us. https://twitter.com/HamasakiLaw/status/1433815644139507721?s=20&t=ORHHDxY9sDN4PfUtfOuedA
- 4 February 2022 : Gascon noted that he was “much more worried today” about the state of SFPD than he was in 2009. He voiced particular concerns around the union, which he says “influences the ability for a chief or frankly even a police commission to effectuate reform.” https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Greg-Suhr-George-Gasc-n-at-odds-over-SFPD-6848158.php
- 4 February 2022 : "Gain, the former chief, agreed. “Whatever problems there are,” he said, “are the mayor’s problems. She has made the Police Commission a nonentity; she tells the chief what to do. She essentially runs the Police Department.” This is what SFPD is trying to do now, again.
- 4 February 2022 : “The mayor runs the Police Department,” said Supervisor John Molinari, a frequent Feinstein supporter. “She appoints the police chief . . . and has to decide if the chief stays or goes. It’s really up to her.”
- 4 February 2022 : The scandals at the time included "a veteran and rookie officers were honoring the latest Police Academy class. During the fete, two vice squad members paid a prostitute $55 to orally copulate a bashful recruit who had been handcuffed to a chair in the middle of the room."
- 4 February 2022 : Like launching two wars, killing 100s of thousands - based on lies? Or did you mean robbing Muslims (or anyone not white) of their civil rights? Seems like a perfect analogy for his administration so far. https://twitter.com/jccoltin/status/1489379137810796544

- 1 February 2022 : RT @DavisVanguard: It was stunning to see just how deceptive initial media accounts were on this. There was no there, there.
- 1 February 2022 : I don't know, maybe I'm missing something, but this looks like a suicidal guy who encouraged cops to shoot him, and they did. I wasn't there, but I watched the video. It seems like things could have been slowed down and maybe save a life instead of taking one.
- 1 February 2022 : So why the rush, why the aggressive approach? Even if dude does raise the gun, police are shielded. Back off. He's said he's trying to get them to shoot. He's thanking and apologizing to them. Slow down, create time for crisis negotiator to work, maybe figure out guns not real.
- 1 February 2022 : And in some mental health cases, there is no time to adjust, but this is clearly not it. The guy is isolated, the only people he could potentially harm are police. Which makes it a perfect case for the use of de-escalation, and creating time and distance. Distance seems fine.
- 1 February 2022 : When you have someone clearly suicidal, and telling the cops where to shoot him "center mass" and "make sure you aim." Now we know we are dealing with someone in distress. Can people in distress hurt others? Yes, of course, so caution is warranted, but mental health should lead.
- 1 February 2022 : Biggest mistake investigators make is just final frame/moment analysis. Did they have cause when he raised the gun? That's an open question. What appears problematic to me is that (1) dude has already said exactly what he wants (for the police to shoot him), so this is a suicide.
- 1 February 2022 : This doesn't seem great. Dude is isolated, contained in an area. Tells the police he wants them to shoot him, says “Thank you for your service. I respect you guys,” and apologizes, before raising replica gun & is shot/killed. https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/San-Francisco-police-to-hold-public-meeting-on-16819735.php?utm_campaign=CMS%20Sharing%20Tools%20(Premium)&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral via @sfchronicle

- 30 January 2022 : "Breyer found himself in company that should have given him serious pause, joining Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, John Roberts, and Anthony Kennedy to form a majority of five that allowed the state to collect the DNA of anyone who is simply arrested by the police." https://twitter.com/cristianafarias/status/1487481892630929412

- 26 January 2022 : Obviously it isn't a perfect solution, but it does give people a place to use that isn't the middle of the sidewalk. Also, a place to dispose of needles, that, again, isn't the sidewalk. Has already cut down on deaths, 3 so far. How is this not a good thing?

- 24 January 2022 : This moment, we should step back, not panic and end up with more people hurt - we need to embrace what we have learned about responding to the right crisis, with the right professional. This is how you keep the community safe - and police too. Strength should guide us, not fear.
- 24 January 2022 : Rethinking public safety if it leads to better outcomes is a non-partisan issue. We all want to be safe, we want those struggling to be taken care of. We don't want anyone hurt. The quick reaction - more cops, more guns, as Adams & Biden argue, is not the solution to every prob.
- 24 January 2022 : As @ScottHech breaks down, what if it wasn't police that showed up, but crisis/mental health counselors? Would it be the same outcome? Hard to say, but counselors deal with people in crisis, on the edge of violence, every day, most don't end up having to involve police.

- 21 January 2022 : To be clear, police may have reasonably believed that there was a gun, not prejudging that. But the minute it was over, they would know exactly if it was a gun or toy. There is no place for dishonesty or prevarication in a police killing.
- 21 January 2022 : Not getting into what the officers believed, but having the dept spokesperson spreading misinformation about the shooting is a problem. If this is reporting is accurate there needs to be an investigation into why the public was misled. https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/Authorities-now-say-man-police-killed-at-SFO-was-16794835.php?utm_campaign=CMS%20Sharing%20Tools%20(Premium)&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral via @sfchronicle

- 19 January 2022 : Don’t be so hard on yourself, I’m sure others have been equally bold and confident while being absolutely wrong.
- 19 January 2022 : The other big question is what does being "linked" mean. Handing directions to a shelter? Or to a service provider? The linking has never been the problem, it is actually providing services that has been the challenge. Does being linked to treatment with a 6 month wait count?
- 19 January 2022 : Lawmakers "need to stay focused on the public interest — which includes taking steps to reassure the public that they aren’t all a bunch of corrupt, self-serving, money-grubbing, power-hungry crooks." https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/18/opinion/congress-trade-stocks.html?smid=tw-share
- 19 January 2022 : One time SF homeless dept appeared in front of commission, bragged about a high number of "exits" from homelessness. Didn't mention until asked, over 90% were just bus tickets to somewhere else. Devil is always in the details.
- 19 January 2022 : I hate to be such a skeptic, but I got played on HSOC w DEM, which was just a homeless/encampment cleaning operation sold as “services.” People can change, agencies can reform. Any positive change is good.
- 19 January 2022 : Before social media, NYT just ran this trash with no accountability. Read this thread and consider how NYT bias towards right-wing police propaganda infects it’s reporting. https://twitter.com/equalityalec/status/1483528176869466113

- 18 January 2022 : Thanks, but I don't think much of that is up and running yet, curious what it is offering now.
- 18 January 2022 : So the new “linkage center” is up and running which I was told would allow police to compel people to accept services here or be arrested.

- 14 January 2022 : The core of the problem with NYT's coverage of policing and criminal justice is the reliance on mushy liberal analysis, like that "defund" cause dem losses, instead of the fact that corporate dems haven't delivered on their promises, except to the utlra-wealthy and lobbyists.

- 13 January 2022 : Someone told Newsom that he could be president after surviving the recall and it has been all swerving right ever since. This is unforgivable, going against the victim's family, just to score a few points with the Fox News crowd - who won't support you anyways.
- 13 January 2022 : The article clarifies that there is no actual question, medical ethics don't require review of a person's social or criminal history. Nor should they. If we put a finger on the scale for treatment, who would end up getting the best/worst medical treatment? NYT suggests, not you.

- 13 January 2022 : It's not just that major media outlets continued to use the ambiguous phrase "officer-involved-shooting," it's that they actively work to cover-up police violence. Just last month, NYT went in full police union damage control after LAPD killed a child. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/police-violence-officer-involved-analysis-lapd_n_61df310fe4b0a26702885448?utm_campaign=share_twitter&ncid=engmodushpmg00000004

- 11 January 2022 : “That is really important to me to listen to the kids, listen to the principals, listen to the teachers,” he said in 2016. “I have to have relationships with these people or I can’t do my job as a philanthropist, as a leader.”
- 11 January 2022 : Outside of being a huge backer of Prop C, another big initiative Marc Benioff took was to fund our PUBLIC schools with $100 million. Such a positive change from the VC crowd who throw rocks from the sidelines, but don't actually do anything to help. https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Salesforce-hits-100-million-donation-to-Bay-Area-16471430.php

- 11 January 2022 : Enforcement by police has very little impact, if any, on traffic safety. They set up on a corner, issue tickets for a day. There is little impact beyond that one day, and hasn't been studied how this impacts driving overall. Do cars take other streets, leave backup speeding?
- 11 January 2022 : Ultimately, though, the answer is infrastructure. Cities need to design safer environments for everyone. As the article states "The best way to reduce traffic fatalities is to fix the underlying road infrastructure that contributes to unsafe driving."
- 11 January 2022 : "people who officers perceived to be trans women were 2.5 times more likely to be searched, detained, and/or handcuffed than cisgender women & police took actions against them over 60% of the time, and arrested nearly 29% of trans women stopped." https://www.them.us/story/california-police-search-detain-trans-women-study/amp

They did the same with "predictive policing" suck up a bunch of bad data and come up with garbage. The article is worth a read for hilarity. https://twitter.com/washingtonpost/status/1479110570129326086
- 6 January 2022 : The anti-vaxx activism of the police is the same you see on extremist propaganda, which should have cued depts in to who had likely ties to domestic extremism. If you want to address racism in policing, violence, killings, hate, you need to go to the root of this extremism.
- 6 January 2022 : Even after 1/6, police across the country, led by the police unions, joined with the far-right in fighting against basic public safety, refusing to get vaccinated, wear masks, protect the community. It should have been a red flag, why are police joining the anti-vaxx movement?
- 6 January 2022 : The government’s response to known connections of law enforcement officers to violent racist and militant groups has been strikingly insufficient. https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/hidden-plain-sight-racism-white-supremacy-and-far-right-militancy-law

- 5 January 2022 : Point is, arbitrarily tagging workers as “low skill” is a losing game and disrespectful to the people who make this country function. Without Dunkin’ Donuts, where would cops eat? Without cops, how would Dunkin’ survive. Circle of life.

- 5 January 2022 : The other part of this horrific story of police violence is the way Lyft & Uber make drivers buy/rent their own cars through sleazy apps/companies like HyreCar & CarMommy.

- 31 December 2021 : Being biracial, I've gotten that tag all my life. Who knows, really? I didn't grow up in a big Asian community in the US, but I did live & go to school in Japan as a kid. Being Asian is the US is always going to be complicated, by community, culture, class, experiences, etc.
- 31 December 2021 : Just for the non-Asians among us, banana used to be used by Asians to denigrate other Asians as being white-leaning, culturally.

- 29 December 2021 : Another great thread to share with your Fox News watching family members scared to go outside because of shoplifting. It’s all propaganda and disinformation peddled by those who benefit from fear. https://twitter.com/equalityalec/status/1476221720621166601

- 28 December 2021 : The other LA councilman, with a mushy statement focusing on the assailant. Yes, suspect was horribly violent and hurt people. That's what police are highly paid and thoroughly trained to deal with. This one is squarely on LAPD, no need to weasel around it. https://twitter.com/awalkerinLA/status/1475968723773059076

- 28 December 2021 : Excellent police propaganda machine at work here - Describes all of the bad stuff on security camera (which the police hadn't seen), makes it seem like suspect was still near woman (really 10-15 ft away retreating), and the officer has to shoot him. Trash https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2021/12/27/lapd-shooting-footage/?tid=ss_tw

- 28 December 2021 : I don't know how you put a positive spin, except that dude had definitely hurt people before. But that's not the question, it is whether they are posing an imminent threat. The "slow down" is what needed to happen here, and that little girl would still be alive. Time & distance.
- 28 December 2021 : Kinda wishing I hadn't watched that. There was a good moment, cop yelling to other cops, "slow down, slow down" trying to control emotions. But cop with assault rifle just freaked out and wasted two people.

- 24 December 2021 : You really have to wonder about the culture at @latimes that seems okay with covering up the killing of a little girl to protect the killer cop. I'm glad they finally admitted the truth, but the instinct to participate in a cover-up is still bad. https://twitter.com/chadloder/status/1474223772689338372

- 18 December 2021 : It feels like the 1980s-90s again, democrats chasing MAGA voters instead of listening the experts on the tough issues facing this country.

The Sackler Cartel created so much death and destruction across the country, and now can't have their name on fancy buildings as punishment. Street dealers get years in prison.
- 17 December 2021 : Instead of "making life hell" for the largest US drug dealers, the court here originally blocked people harmed by the Sackler Cartel from suing the cartel members.

- 16 December 2021 : So it isn't fair that someone shoplifting to survive goes to jail and executives who steal just to pad the bottom line don't. But I'd prefer to find solutions that address the problems without locking people in cages.
- 16 December 2021 : I support the bill, but do I think that incarceration is the best solution, no. I think that accountability, making victim whole, rehabilitation, can usually be achieved without incarceration. It's a difficult question tho, because our whole system is built around incarceration.
- 16 December 2021 : So, just to back up, you made an unsupported claim about the DA being responsible for a robbery. Then a second unsupported claim, which I asked for data to support. You had none. And I'm the one gaslighting? We can discuss public safety, but let's stay grounded in the real world.
- 16 December 2021 : Do you have any data to support the claim that "assaults in SF are are overwhelmingly committed by repeat offenders the DA has released." (also, see what you QT'd, judges make release/bail decisions and also set the length of the sentence.)

- 15 December 2021 : Also what completely innocent people do! Please stop slamming folks for asserting their constitutional rights, Stephen.

- 15 December 2021 : The folks at @sfchronicle put together a handy map so you can see where each death in the city happened. https://www.sfchronicle.com/projects/2021/san-francisco-drug-overdoses-map/
- 15 December 2021 : The complaining about the neighborhood is disingenuous at best, the data is clear that the majority of overdose deaths occur in the TL. Yes, that is terrible for TL that it is concentrated, but if you want to save lives, you go where the overdoses are.
- 15 December 2021 : We've been talking about this for years, while hundreds have died. How many more people are going to die on our streets before we implement this? Yes, there are issues, but it could have been open before NYC's if we wanted to. https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/S-F-takes-big-step-toward-opening-a-supervised-16702572.php?utm_campaign=CMS%20Sharing%20Tools%20(Premium)&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral via @sfchronicle
- 15 December 2021 : Everything wrong in the sense that it shows that it is a culture that prioritizes the members over the public.

- 15 December 2021 : Please donate to no stop us from profiteering on insider info.

- 15 December 2021 : And then the addiction calls and the friend runs to feed it. With all the resources, friends, family, counselors, working together, we were not able to succeed. And when we did, friend fled the center after a few days. We kept trying, trying, trying. It is heartbreakingly hard.
- 15 December 2021 : I think we agree on the problems, but the solutions are more complicated. Making things "harder" doesn't address addiction. It is very hard to just stop being addicted, so I'm not sure how moving a block or two helps. Just spreads things out, not sure if that is good goal?
- 15 December 2021 : Whew, luckily we have more police coming to solve this! https://twitter.com/MKushel/status/1471132125348851712
- 15 December 2021 : There is a role for police in the TL, don't get me wrong. But the police-heavy press conference suggested that they would solve the TL's issues, that's just objectively not true. Walk the streets of the TL and maybe 5% of the issues can be addressed by police, the rest?

- 15 December 2021 : As Adams promised to unleash police on New Yorkers, the most important qualification for a new police chief was the ability to handle police killing an unarmed Black man… https://twitter.com/sethmpk/status/1470913865688961027

- 15 December 2021 : So I think this is more about allowing police access to the CBD cameras so they can conduct surveillance in real time.
- 14 December 2021 : Exactly
- 14 December 2021 : I agree with you, gun violence is absolutely not acceptable, same with same with harassment.
- 14 December 2021 : I agree that circumstances in the TL are unacceptable, but flooding it with police isn't a real solution.
- 14 December 2021 : @ScottHech addressed the tired hateful tropes the AP used in pushing this story https://twitter.com/ScottHech/status/1469773625846747136?s=20
- 14 December 2021 : The way that the media, police and politicians have collaborated to push the tough-on-crime agenda has been well-documented https://twitter.com/equalityAlec/status/1470089954428551173?s=20
- 14 December 2021 : The story was obviously planted, but I assumed it was coming from the right-wing VC crowd. If you read the article alongside the medium piece and speech, it hits all of the same notes around "tolerance" and crime. This is how media works with politicians and police = same goals.
- 14 December 2021 : But if you really want to know what is behind the police overtime push, here's the police union 4 days ago https://twitter.com/SanFranciscoPOA/status/1469424727793930244?s=20
- 14 December 2021 : We also did a "surge" in mid-market last year and then got complaints from residential neighborhoods about unhoused people being driven to their neighborhoods. None of the problems went away, they just went...away down the street.
- 14 December 2021 : The issue is one of visibility. Everyone does drugs, from the Marina to the TL. Marina gets deliveries and sales in homes. People get just as whacked out, but they do it indoors. So why not get people into housing, so they too can use indoors? Or safe use sites?
- 14 December 2021 : The myth that we just need to "prosecute harder!" is garbage. Feds have been handing out 5-10 years like candy for TL sales. Dealing has gone up, supply has gotten bigger, violence increased. Is that success? Why are we doing same thing and expecting a different result?
- 14 December 2021 : 🥺 https://twitter.com/theyylovekj/status/1470391547233505291
- 14 December 2021 : Yea, I mean rallying the base is good, but I also think it can be negative when it is overturned or people see it doesn't actually do anything.
- 14 December 2021 : Yea, there was a point where I was like, ohhh Newsom is showing some fight, then thought it through and realized, ehhh it means little to nothing in practical impact.
- 14 December 2021 : Potential criminal charges for Amazon, conspiracy, false imprisonment, kidnapping, manslaughter. Not a clear case, but the Crumbley case is also super-thin, legally. We are trained though, to look at them differently, white collar conduct is less...criminal, even with deaths.
- 14 December 2021 : Former SF DA on the importance of prosecutor-initiated resentencing which "includes a meticulous review of an incarcerated person’s history, rehabilitation and in-prison behavior, as well as robust reentry planning." 26k people in CA could be home safely. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/12/13/prosecutor-initiated-resentencing-early-release-incarcerated-california/?tid=ss_tw
- 14 December 2021 : Seems that same mentality has remained...
- 14 December 2021 : I really wanted to like Newsom's move on guns, but when you peel back the layers, it is a pretty empty stunt with no real substance. It purports to push back on the Supreme Court abortion ruling logic, but ignores the simple fact that right-wing judges rule by ideology, not law. https://twitter.com/thenation/status/1470787174530433029

- 14 December 2021 : Every day our system finds new and unusual cruelties to impose. This is a case worth following for the insane machinations of the prison and parole board, keeping him in prison unlawfully, even against a court order. https://twitter.com/ScottHech/status/1470567037260996608
- 14 December 2021 : Some people just sipping that hate all day, every day and can't let someone have a moment. And again, you can criticize her for whatever you like, but damn. Look how happy she was in that post and people trying to tear her down for it. Thanking her dad who passed.
- 14 December 2021 : This is some hater nonsense. And not to say, don't criticize Kim for x, y, or z. But she got through the exam with her work and her brain, and failed repeatedly, and then succeeded! Good for her, law tests are hard for everyone. Maybe take a day off and let the woman celebrate. https://twitter.com/norarahimian/status/1470439955633631232

- 14 December 2021 : Wild that a wacko right-wing "news" network had so much influence over a very...unstable prez. How much policy was led by Fox personalities?

- 13 December 2021 : We need to address these problems thoughtfully and create paths for people to escape poverty. Jailing people generally makes things worse. Lock them up for 30 days a few months a year, but what about when they get out? What is happened to their family in the meantime?
- 13 December 2021 : Can you imagine if we actually did this - had police officers fight over dollar bills for tasers and handcuffs? Ridiculous, but we do it to teachers who often make 1/2 as much as cops and literally are responsible for educating the future of our country. https://twitter.com/dyjuantatro/status/1470184635875295232

- 10 December 2021 : I agree that faking a hate crime takes attention away from actual victims and also helps the right-wing fantasy that it doesn't actually exist. Hugely unhelpful and we can have that discussion without racists like Scott Adams chiming in.
- 10 December 2021 : Waiting to get your case called on Zoom court is far less enjoyable than being in actual court with your clients and colleagues. There should do breakout rooms for all the defense attorneys to hang out.

- 9 December 2021 : These professors teach the next generation of lawyers about criminal justice, but are afraid to stand up to a racist rant by their colleague. Incredibly disappointing, but hey, white law profs gotta stick together.
- 9 December 2021 : The reason academia is as toxic as it is, is the lack of accountability for people like @mldauber , who attacked ALL public defenders as "stupid and arrogant." But mostly it was an attack on the poor, Black & Latinx clients they defend. Her fellow @StanfordLaw profs won't condemn. https://twitter.com/d_a_sklansky/status/1469002537751646213
- 9 December 2021 : Okay, 6 beef jerky, 3 deodorant, 7 toothbrushes, 4 AAA batteries, + tax = ? The arguments against Prop 47 by the police unions and their media allies are beyond ridiculous. No thief in the history of thieving has ever tried to steal LESS b/c of Prop 47. https://twitter.com/lgsplace/status/1469017633378816000

- 9 December 2021 : Feelings aren't facts. Yes, you may feel different, but the data doesn't support your feelings. That doesn't mean your feelings don't matter.
- 9 December 2021 : The worst is the head of the corporate retail association saying "But it’s impossible under 47, she says. We’d rather hire someone than have them steal from us,” YOU RUN BACKGROUND CHECKS AND DON'T HIRE PEOPLE WITH RECORDS!
- 9 December 2021 : Good list of by-state limits "Making more minor thefts into misdemeanors will also spare more people from the often lifelong collateral consequences of felony convictions that can limit their access to public housing, welfare benefits, and even voting." https://www.prisonpolicy.org/blog/2020/06/10/felony-thresholds/
- 9 December 2021 : Maybe this is what they are really mad about: "Prop 47, along with other criminal justice reforms, has also narrowed—but far from eliminated—disparities in incarceration rates between African Americans and whites." https://www.ppic.org/press-release/prop-47-has-reduced-racial-disparities-in-arrests-and-bookings-in-california-but-serious-inequities-remain/
- 9 December 2021 : AP ASSESSMENT: False. Proposition 47 was passed in California in 2014 and reclassified felony theft offenses as misdemeanors. It did not allow shoplifting and petty theft to go unprosecuted. https://apnews.com/article/fact-checking-160551360299
- 9 December 2021 : “Many people assume that since rates for some types of crime went up after the passage of Prop. 47, that it must be the cause, but our study indicates that is not the case,” @cekubrin said. https://news.uci.edu/2018/03/07/proposition-47-not-responsible-for-recent-upticks-in-crime-across-california-uci-study-says/
- 9 December 2021 : All thefts are crimes and are regularly charged by prosecutors, even “reform” prosecutors. The 950 threshold elevates it to a felony, which is a low threshold nationally. Even good ole liberal Texas has a $2500 threshold to make it a felony. https://twitter.com/sanuzis/status/1468971873429966859
- 9 December 2021 : It is possible, but isolating one data point to the exclusion of all others doesn’t really provide much insight. That is the problem with crime data generally. So many other factors ignored to reach that conclusion.
- 9 December 2021 : There is zero proof that the police surge in Union Square “deterred” any crime. Correlation with no evidence of causation. The other concern is did this just push crime into other neighborhoods, hurting small businesses instead of the big corporations in Union Square. https://twitter.com/sarastinsonnews/status/1468964028579921923

- 9 December 2021 : “and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season." Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.”
- 9 December 2021 : “which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom;”who lives by a mythical concept of time”
- 9 December 2021 : So sad to miss out pic.twitter.com/kNKH0bNasm
- 9 December 2021 : Interesting research that prosecutors incarcerate more when facing contested elections. Consider this alongside the recall challenges in CA and the pressure they are putting on the DAs to be more cruel and vicious towards members of the community. https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2021/12/looking-at-role-of-prosecutors-politics-in-mass-incarceration/
- 9 December 2021 : Don't think it is unintentional, we could have made real progress on shifting resources to the community, to non-police responses. The relentless media scaring the heck out of people - it is all very deliberate by the people who never believed that Black lives matter.

- 8 December 2021 : This is what I would love to see in San Francisco. Instead of just throwing rocks at people trying to make positive change, why not pitch in and help? If you care about this community, why tear it down, why not try to build it up and make it better? https://twitter.com/JamesQueallyLAT/status/1468688475507466240
- 8 December 2021 : And yes, it is absolutely fine to be upset that someone stole some deodorant from Walgreens to sell to survive, but how about some of that outrage for the CEO who robs workers of their hard-earned pay for a bigger yacht?
- 8 December 2021 : The Walgreens shoplifting cases get wall-to-wall media coverage, while their CEO's theft only resulted in 1 story. A few hundred $$ in petty theft and Fox News has a reporter embedded in every Walgreens, a few million $$ and every major media except 1 was "too busy" to cover it.
- 8 December 2021 : the grift is getting old, move on
- 8 December 2021 : Rumors that police testify in criminal, misconduct, and civil cases according to a "script" devised by the officers and their union to protect the "blue" have circulated forever.

- 8 December 2021 : This has caused a lot of people to be jailed longer because their constitutional right to a speedy trial went out the window. But again, this was the management of the courts, but the delay by attys. So when they say that the DA or defense attys delayed trials, that is a lie.
- 8 December 2021 : San Francisco courts, like SF in general took safety measures that some considered excessive, but we also saved a lot of lives. On the other hand, there has been a backlog of trials waiting because of lack of courtrooms, not any delay by DA or defense attorneys.
- 8 December 2021 : There has been a pandemic raging that has taken nearly 1 million people in the US. Close contact indoors was the primary cause. Judges up and down the state did things different, but most trials were stopped everywhere and when restarted, took longer because of social distancing.
- 8 December 2021 : We should stop promoting it, that’s what they want
- 8 December 2021 : This is why supply-side solutions to drug use always fail, as long as people enjoy them, there will be plenty to sell. Demand generates supply.

- 7 December 2021 : "The knee-jerk, authoritarian response to perceived disrespect — even the most mild cases, as this one obviously is — is as terrifying in its scope as it is unsurprising."
- 7 December 2021 : "But we live in a country where anything short of full-throated support for the thin blue line can easily be read in bad faith as an endorsement of criminality and anarchy."
- 7 December 2021 : "Understanding both these cases requires knowing why some might disagree with the idea that armed police officers are inherently benevolent entities.

- 7 December 2021 : I agree the roll-out and fines need to be fixed and small biz owners need support and guidance to implement. But as far as the handbook, it is actually pretty well-done, especially as far as technical government handbooks.
- 7 December 2021 : Everyone who has been debating the 60(!) page handbook, should really take a look, so at least we can have an informed debate. Think @ezraklein and others just read @sfchronicle and assumed it was dense and complex, when actually it is remarkably easy to read/understand. https://twitter.com/HamasakiLaw/status/1468315797512605696

- 7 December 2021 : I wonder if they actually did cost/benefit analysis on protecting corporate profits vs. saving lives. I'm gonna guess they did and just decided that it was more important to keep the campaign payments and cushy jobs lined up than save lives.

- 6 December 2021 : “We are so far away from the epicenter of power, we have really had the freedom to be creative. If we were a neighborhood in Washington, D.C., we couldn’t do what we have done because people would be paying attention and sabotaging it.” Sound familiar, San Francisco?
- 6 December 2021 : Insightful article about a different approach to drug courts, a former prosecutor, now judge, father addicted, working in a high-addiction community - treating addiction as disease and users as humans, not using jail as threat. Worth a read. https://www.washingtonpost.com/magazine/2021/11/30/new-mexico-drug-court/
- 6 December 2021 : Playing "footsie with fascists regarding criminal justice matters" is probably the best line of the year to describe the DA recall race. @EskSF
- 6 December 2021 : "Playing footsie with fascists regarding criminal justice matters is ill-advised: The GOP is, once again, claiming that only it can fix it. Only it is the party of law and order and accountability and Democrats and “their cities” are bastions of lawlessness."
- 6 December 2021 : I genuinely believe that there are good people in this city doing good work who want to make these changes. But the constant push from the center-right/right media to focus on incarceration and policing, just as they always have, is literally why we are in this mess.
- 6 December 2021 : Great thread about the issues in the right-wing recalls of elected officials in San Francisco. I don't understand how anyone who believes in democracy can support these recalls. You can absolutely despise the targets, while also putting a higher value on free and fair elections. https://twitter.com/DeanPreston/status/1467909941285380096
- 6 December 2021 : Uh, poor people should die so I can have cheap sneakers is a hell of a take
- 6 December 2021 : Though the police union continues to call for more police and higher pay the evidence linking enforcement to traffic safety is thin. Say you enforce a high-injury corridor during rush hour 5 times a month, it has little if any impact on safety the other 25 days of the month.
- 6 December 2021 : Ultimately if we are going to get serious about Vision Zero for traffic fatalities and cut down on collisions in general it is going to have to be through design. https://www.fastcompany.com/90702355/40-of-san-franciscos-traffic-deaths-are-from-left-turns-these-design-fixes-could-change-that

- 6 December 2021 : I'm open to that idea. Might be a place for me to think it through.
- 6 December 2021 : Hmmm, my view is that they are both functions of the same system of white supremacy - caging poor, Black & Latinx folks and denying women freedom of their bodies.
- 6 December 2021 : Hmmm, I was definitely not trying to dunk. But yes, when asked "what other freedoms" the caging of human beings is always going to be first and foremost in my mind.
- 6 December 2021 : Not to dunk but people in the criminal justice system have been losing their actual freedom for the last 50 years and maybe we can focus on them a little too? https://twitter.com/mollyjongfast/status/1467833284528906251
- 6 December 2021 : I'll never join the bandwagon to destroy lives even of people whose actions I condemn. Maybe everyone won't turn it around, but we have to give people who want it the chance. I've seen lots of people prosecutors consider the worst of the worst change and lead good lives.

- 5 December 2021 : They keep churning out these articles with zero input from non-police experts. There is little to no correlation between increased police and reduction in homicides. Violence is reduced by addressing poverty, housing, social services, education, but no media interest in it.
- 5 December 2021 : We talk about police misconduct/violence, but the damage prosecutors do is often worse. Innocent people are locked away in cages every day, for years, by unethical prosecutors who lie and cheat to convict and tear apart families. Zero consequences. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/12/04/opinion/prosecutor-misconduct-new-york-doj.html?smid=tw-share

- 1 December 2021 : The other thing you might want to consider, is that if your friends in the gig economy actually paid decent wages and didn't steal from their workers - more people might find a way to make a living lawfully, and not end up on the streets or selling drugs.
- 1 December 2021 : Police make lots of arrests, follow the tenderloin sfpd account. Or you can check the docket in fed court, tons of cases. The problem, as you might have guessed, is that street level dealers are incredibly fungible. Arrest 10, there will be 15 the next day.
- 1 December 2021 : Well, yes, Ryan. Drug sales are just like any other type of sales, capitalism at it's most pure and transactional. The fact that it is illegal doesn't make it any less capitalist. There's lots of scholarship on this very point.

- 1 December 2021 : Cool, crime is bad! We agree, what are you going to do to help us change that? Do you want to support some organizations and non-profits working with youth, violence intervention? You "have all the capital" why not put some of it to good use?
- 1 December 2021 : Of course @garrytan was all over this one…you may be right about capital, but it would be great if both of you would learn some fundamentals of how government works, sit in on a few board of supes meetings, read all the budget docs, spend time with the various agencies. pic.twitter.com/EVaKK5EQdX

- 30 November 2021 : I think the difference between living in San Francisco and being part of the community is the root of whether you are happy here or not. I'm not sure how to best help folks make that transition, other than just encouraging to get out and about and meet people, we are really nice!
- 30 November 2021 : Also in the last 24 hours, various far-right personalities and white supremacists have been targeting our city for...shoplifting. Which is fine for them, I'd take a look at their cities/towns and can see why they'd be all salty. But we should stick together against this hate.
- 30 November 2021 : Local news has been one of the main drivers of what we call implicit racism, through using constant images of people of color associated with crime. It is a way of spreading racism to people who just want to learn what happened that day. Mugshots being prime example.
- 30 November 2021 : I 100% support the reform of our criminal justice system, but this ain't it. Trying to stretch the law to the extremes to satisfying the right-wing mob is wrong, no matter who is doing it.

- 30 November 2021 : The core of moderate/centrist democrats has always been the belief that they have to be “tougher” and crueler than the far-right. Clinton set the tone by killing a horribly mentally ill person for votes. More police, more prisons, harsher sentences, knowing it doesn’t work. https://twitter.com/donmoyn/status/1465399379678961673
- 29 November 2021 : There’s criminal corruption and then there is LAPD. Hard to see how this isn’t part of the culture when it is widespread, cover-ups, and even threats to investigators looking into criminal network. More like organized crime than law enforcement. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2021-11-29/allegations-lapd-gun-store-case-investigation-claims-corruption

- 29 November 2021 : It's easy to get so numb to these crime-scare articles that you just kinda take in the scary headline and think - oh wow, crime is crazy! And then gloss over that all of the sources are individuals who have a direct financial interest in scaring you. Crime pays. https://twitter.com/equalityAlec/status/1464647248139141123

- 29 November 2021 : Feed him!
- 29 November 2021 : I dunno, it's just sad that we implement a lot of good policies around covid in CA, but the minute it comes to the life and health of people in custody, all the science goes out the window.
- 29 November 2021 : The prison guard union is appealing the vaccine mandate order, Newsom joined them in requesting a stay until March 2022, right through the expected tough winter months of covid. Really disturbing stuff, but guess he has gone further right after the recall.
- 29 November 2021 : Yah, he backed the prison guards lawsuit staying the vaccine mandate, so more people could be killed by the virus in prisons, 300 body count so far.
- 28 November 2021 : Hard agree and always teach new lawyers - it's never about you. We may be taking on a system of injustice, but never let the bigger systemic goals take priority over the individual client. Clients first, always. https://twitter.com/ASFleischman/status/1464767415464738816
- 28 November 2021 : Right, I'm not sure how far back they go, but very much Bay Area culture. Wish there was a way that folks could enjoy it without disrupting neighborhoods. And yea, enforcement is always gonna be tough, because...cars move.
- 28 November 2021 : That's a great question, there were a bunch of articles a few months back when sideshows were the crime epidemic of the moment. Worth considering! https://sfist.com/2021/09/29/as-sideshows-spike-across-norcal-santa-rosa-considers-sanctioning-and-legalizing-them/
- 28 November 2021 : Is not a science and not an art, it is mostly guesswork and luck. Again, this is what we have been working on - putting the right experts in charge of homeless, mental health, substance abuse, well-being calls, so that police are free to respond quicker to serious/violent calls.
- 28 November 2021 : Again, this isn't a violent incident, so I don't know how high priority it is. But, every deployment is a policy choice. And when you pull officers off of patrol to guard stores, there are less to respond. Again, I'm not sure what the right call is, because predicting crime...

- 28 November 2021 : How many different ways do we have to learn about the gross failure of the war on drugs, before we start addressing it and saving lives? 100,000 dead in the last year and you think seizing some dope off a corner dealer is going to make a difference?
- 28 November 2021 : "The growing consensus among drug policy experts is clear: Until people have access to a safe drug supply and proven treatments for substance use disorder, overdose deaths will continue their stratospheric rise." https://newrepublic.com/article/164531/overdose-deaths-safe-supply Follow @newrepublic
- 28 November 2021 : I don’t understand that account, it’s posts the worst, most ill-informed criminal justice takes.
- 28 November 2021 : This is a good point to juxtapose with the shoplifting/theft stories that the right-wing media has been running non-stop. Instead of intelligent discussion of the VP, it's pots. Instead of intelligent discussion of criminal justice, its Louis Vuitton thefts. It is intentional. https://twitter.com/MollyJongFast/status/1464666530277380101

- 28 November 2021 : Also, you don’t have to comment! Nothing you say will likely dispel ideas people want to have about you, I was clear there’s no evidence now. But I see clients talk themselves into court every day. Better to have a plan or just chill and let it burn out.
- 28 November 2021 : To be honest, I am totally interested in roasting you, but also as a lawyer, I hate to see some one dig their own grave as it were. Think about any potential witnesses, everything in public/private domain before commenting. You already made one big mistake with last statement.
- 28 November 2021 : I’d advise against answering questions with answers that are easily proven false. “Calacanis said the meeting was 30 minutes or less and can’t remember details, other than the opulence of the surroundings: ‘His living room was the size of a hotel lobby.’” https://finance.yahoo.com/news/epstein-arrest-leaves-top-technology-110002468.html

- 28 November 2021 : Picture that for a second, the way we treat mental health and substance use with an often violent police response. Would we do the same to our parents with cancer? Both are medical conditions, why do we treat one with healthcare the other with criminalization? https://twitter.com/galvinalmanza/status/1464715088091389953

- 27 November 2021 : Garry is such a crypto goofball he thought he was investing in blockchain but just ended up with a lousy block-list
- 27 November 2021 : Each time misconduct arises, we should be asking those questions. But California mostly still protects the police over your right to know and be safe. So we have to trust that prosecutors and police will ferret out misconduct, which historically they have done the opposite.
- 27 November 2021 : When a cop is caught sharing racist texts with another cop, we just forget that this cop has been investigating people of color their whole career. How did that racism play into those investigations? And how many other cops either participated or looked the other way?
- 27 November 2021 : Seeing that dude was JA (Japanese American) is a little extra sad. So few left in the Bay Area…

- 27 November 2021 : How America deals with poverty https://twitter.com/NotFakeBrendan/status/1464598321968865286
- 27 November 2021 : Yup, been screaming into the void about it on here for ages. The problem with the simple narrative that it’s “criminals” just leads to more police spending which doesn’t address the underlying causes. So we never actually address the problems of poverty.
- 27 November 2021 : It’s a combination but the overarching theme is poverty. People stealing food and self care items to survive. Also people stealing items to re-sell to brokers, again to have some money to survive.

- 27 November 2021 : Curious that he has such an interest in crime in SF, while consorting with a child sex trafficker. He has issued some non-denial denials, just that wasn’t on yacht or island. But do you hang out and do business with this guy? Where does that leave your credibility on crime?
- 27 November 2021 : Ah much better non-denials, denies certain facts while leaving wide open the question of whether he used Epstein’s services as a child sex trafficker.

- 25 November 2021 : My friend @typesfast types awfully slow when we start talking about holding tech execs criminally accountable for stealing from their low wage workers. We can agree that the gov't should investigate and prosecute tech execs who steal workers wages/benefits/tips, right?

- 25 November 2021 : *So you do
- 25 November 2021 : Okay, so so would support the prosecution of tech executives for things like wage theft, stealing tips, stealing benefits from their poor/low income workers?
- 24 November 2021 : I'm genuinely sorry to hear about your negative experiences, I'm not a cop, my role is civilian oversight. Please lodge a complaint at @SF_DPA . Since you called and no one responded, there will be a record and this should be dealt with.

- 24 November 2021 : Whoa, City Family OG Nancy Pelosi’s son, a slumlord, is a potential target of the federal criminal investigation around the always-shady DBI for bribing inspectors to overlook violations. Wild how Mission Local breaks these stories over major media. https://missionlocal.org/2021/11/paul-pelosi-client-9-department-of-building-inspection-1312-utah-the-pit/
- 24 November 2021 : Today's verdict doesn't mean our criminal justice system "works" or is fair. It just means, that it got one right, one that would be near-impossible to get wrong. And only did so after a lot of work by the community, not the people in charge of "public safety." It is still on us.

- 24 November 2021 : It’s slow, costly, and difficult, but tactically using civil litigation to drive the far-right into the ground may be more successful than waiting for police to intervene. Take everything they own, go after their funders and backers, make nazis broke again.

- 24 November 2021 : Again, this doesn’t mean we shouldn’t talk about theft and stealing and that it’s not important. But when it is compared to a human life, a veteran, why can’t the media tell that story too? Maybe help us understand so it doesn’t happen again.
- 24 November 2021 : When I challenge the media to do better, this is a prime example. There were approximately 345,384.34 stories about handbag thefts from Louis Vuitton. This is the only one I’ve seen about a San Francisco veteran who was killed after serving the country and suffering from PTSD.
- 24 November 2021 : I agree the term “terrorism” is woefully imprecise and has historically been misused for biased purposes. Buuuut, if we are still using that word, read/watch this tell me how the Three Percenters is not a terrorist organization. Scary stuff. https://twitter.com/krisgoldsmith85/status/1463491068880732162

- 24 November 2021 : I’m neutral as hell on guns, I wish that they weren’t such a big part of American life, but also do believe in self-defense and that there are times where a gun can save a life. Mostly they take lives, so on balance meh. And as a substitute for “masculinity” they are sad.
- 24 November 2021 : Not sure if buying French weed is gonna boost those poll numbers, but worth a shot. https://twitter.com/mollyjongfast/status/1463278260138266628
- 24 November 2021 : Not commenting on the shooting itself, just the tragedy many veterans face on return from serving our country. And how much defense attorney have to fight to get them help and struggle for resources. A lot of social work in defense work.
- 24 November 2021 : It’s always easy to screw the poor, but the choice destroy lives, jobs, and families. Someone barely clinging on ends up in jail on low level offense, they lose their job, partner loses childcare, kids lose a parent. Shouldn’t we want to help people move on after crime/re-enter?
- 24 November 2021 : In appointed criminal cases, the county decides how much to pay attys to represent people. Counties that don’t pay well get the worst lawyers who plea the clients out early and get worse resolutions. This is policy choice by politicians who don’t care about liberty for the poor. https://twitter.com/cbhessick/status/1463544184221151236
- 24 November 2021 : Another interesting and sad self-defense case, luckily an independent witness was present cause dude shot pregnant woman outside her home after she pulled a gun. But I bet if she had shot, she could have argued dude followed her home and was scared. If neither had gun tho… https://twitter.com/shannonrwatts/status/1463525634919964672
- 24 November 2021 : As for duty, Mike, since you seem to have strong feelings that I'm not doing enough to serve San Francisco, why don't you let us know what you've done other than come on here and complain?
- 24 November 2021 : Oh, I wasn't even aware you live here, most of the VC crowd doesn't. Welcome! I'm happy to discuss public safety anytime, Mike. On here, in person, but it would help if you understood some basic concepts and theories on policing and criminal justice.
- 24 November 2021 : I'd probably stick with the VC stuff, but appreciate the effort. In what way do you imagine I am not interested in addressing crime in my city.

- 23 November 2021 : Bad cases make bad law, let’s not change the law in a way that impacts regular people defending themselves from violence. It also distracts from the reason he won - prosecutor sucked (the real cause here), the judge was biased (yes, but), or the jury was biased (big maybe!). https://twitter.com/therecount/status/1463153222479237131

- 23 November 2021 : No Care, No Cash! Really set the stage for current conditions.
- 23 November 2021 : Maybe I have too much "sympathy and empathy" but hey, I dunno, people are people. I was raised to treat people the same, whether they are a VC or a person living on the streets. Maybe no one ever taught him that? Kind of a sad thought.
- 23 November 2021 : Then we'd be in agreement?
- 23 November 2021 : Gotta read the jury, some might want that, but yea, most juries like to be led more than told. Yelling racism to an all white Fox News jury isn’t a winning strategy.
- 23 November 2021 : Reasonable prosecutor is the hardest to go against, I’ll take the fire-breathing true believer every day. Makes it easy to distinguish
- 23 November 2021 : What if they spent all that money on a recall Prop 13 campaign
- 23 November 2021 : The lesson that liberals seem to be learning from all of these far-right attacks is that they just need to be a little more racist and everyone will like them. Pick a side, you are with them or join the rest of us trying to fight to make a fairer and more just society.
- 23 November 2021 : Especially after the way the media has racialized these crimes, this type of language is what leads to hate crimes and violence. If someone isn’t human, we don’t have to treat them as human. Really disturbing seeing this coming from the governor.
- 23 November 2021 : I get that folks are upset and not in any way justifying the crime, but why not ask a deeper question about why this is happening so we can figure out how to address the causes so it doesn’t happen again. That’s the difference between smart on crime and just being angry.
- 23 November 2021 : I’d rather have a person start with the premise that racism is bad and maybe overshoot their mark, than someone who is like, America is a color-blind society, cause I know nothing intelligent is coming after that point.
- 23 November 2021 : Deleted lol sounded funky
- 23 November 2021 : lol yes I meant to add in “in” and of course just tweeted without reviewing
- 23 November 2021 : Talk about racial element if it is at issue and the jury is READY to hear about it. Usually you know in jury selection what your jurors are open to hearing. This is America and you might have a better shot by letting the jurors draw conclusions instead of being direct. https://twitter.com/shanlonwu/status/1462910619691237386
- 23 November 2021 : Gotta be in the room and know the jury. If the jury is open to that, then yes. But they have to be ready to hear it otherwise they might resent it.

- 22 November 2021 : “the declines in civil liberties and checks on government” and a “decline in the quality of freedom of association and assembly during the summer of protests in 2020” after the police killing of George Floyd” as the right no longer supports democracy. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/nov/22/us-list-backsliding-democracies-civil-liberties-international

- 20 November 2021 : What does this even mean? Did the verdict "speak" that little Kyle is innocent? Cause that's what it sounds like.
- 20 November 2021 : None of this would be necessary if the far-right wasn't wusses, but they are. Always have been. Can't handle a fair fight so they bring guns. So now what are we supposed to do? The police and courts aren't protecting us, they protected Rittenhouse.
- 20 November 2021 : I don't love this, or even like it. I don't like guns, but I believe in self-defense. I'm not showing up to a gunfight with a plastic spork. It sucks to even have to think like this, but this is the way our country has been for far too long, and we want to pretend it isn't.

- 19 November 2021 : found the worst take https://twitter.com/nycguidovoice/status/1461761790652686342
- 19 November 2021 : I said earlier, the prosecution in this case was what would have happened if Marcia Clark and Chris Darden had a baby - in other words, losing a case where you had all the evidence through spectacularly bad lawyering.
- 19 November 2021 : Because prosecutors put on the cases mostly through direct exam "and what happened next?" they are usually really bad at cross-exam. A lot of the time defense doesn't even put up wits, so they get no experience. So when KR testified, there was no one pushing back.
- 19 November 2021 : I watched all of the closings and some of the testimony and feel pretty confident I could have brought the jury to a different result. Not that I'm so great, it's just they had the evidence, they didn't use it well. I think they lost it in his testimony, pros inability to cross.

This is fine. https://twitter.com/cathyrusson/status/1461456083201904642

- 18 November 2021 : And I'm not anti-gun either, I think in the state of our country right now, there are too many cowards running around with them. And if my life was in danger from a coward with a gun, I don't have a problem under those circumstances. But a gun has to be the very last resort.
- 18 November 2021 : I don't like violence, I don't like to fight, but I sure the hell am not interested in killing anyone with a gun. I can live with the consequences of taking a beating, I don't want to have to wake up every day and think about a life I took.
- 18 November 2021 : I say this as someone who has taken a beating, but never thought to pull out a gun about it. It sucks and I've been mad lol, but that's a punk move, a coward pulls the gun when he can't handle it. There is nothing tough about it, it is the exact opposite.
- 18 November 2021 : Maybe the most entertaining thing has been watching all of us criminal justice reformers & defense attorneys screaming both “this is normal!” and “this is awful!” at the same time about the Rittenhouse trial.

- 16 November 2021 : Even at the worst reading, the judge in KR is biased and let KR pull the slips with jurors numbers on them. So what? Do we really think he has some magic number-picking skills, some sort of vodoo/esp/witchcraft at work? Like, it's gonna be random whoever pulls them, chill.
- 16 November 2021 : That's not to say that this trial is not a function of white supremacy, as is the hero-worshipping of little Kyle by the far-right. Just, let's stay focused on the real issues in the case, leave the conspiracies for the far-right wackos.
- 16 November 2021 : And, just like that, not a grand white supremacist conspiracy, mostly just a quirky judge who has made some iffy rulings. The problems with the case, including the iffy rulings, should be laid squarely on the prosecution for not litigating this trial properly. https://twitter.com/Andrew_Havranek/status/1460637073820557324

- 16 November 2021 : any thoughts here, @conor64
- 16 November 2021 : The prosecutor is the real victim, you know.
- 16 November 2021 : "Why did you have to be so mean!" - an actual prosecutor to me after a closing argument. https://twitter.com/fodderyfodder/status/1460395467020423168
- 16 November 2021 : I will 100% be absolutely wrong on this re specific verdicts, but think there's enough for the jury to work with.
- 16 November 2021 : Spent a sick day watching all of the KR closings and not so sure little Kyle is going to walk anymore. Juries notoriously love "splitting the baby" or a compromise verdict that gives a little to each side. Maybe reckless homicide on unarmed guy, 2nd degree on skateboard guy?
- 15 November 2021 : Why is little Gary so angry at women?
- 15 November 2021 : "Everyone takes a beating sometimes." KR prosecutor making a better case, the use of force was not proportional to the threat presented. Also the problem with cowards with guns in general, afraid to square up and maybe lose a fight. Kyle the Coward.
- 15 November 2021 : This second Rittenhouse prosecutor is actually better than the lead prosecutor, even though he's stumbling around a bit, he's putting a little bit of heart into his closing. Should have had him in charge from the start, maybe.
- 15 November 2021 : This Rittenhouse prosecutor is what would happen if Marcia Clark and Chris Darden had a little prosecutor baby.
- 15 November 2021 : Wild, now KR's attorney is arguing it is a "political case" after the judge has excluded all of the politics from the case, especially about Rittenhouse's ties to white supremacists and the far-right. No objection from prosecutor, sleeping through the defense closing.
- 15 November 2021 : Whoa, Rittenhouse's attorney just said he shares the views about the protest of Drew Hernandez, the far-right extremist who testified, much of which the judge prohibited the prosecution from introducing @RobertMackey https://theintercept.com/2021/11/11/rittenhouse-trial-judge-blocks-prosecutor-asking-far-right-videographer-biased/

- 15 November 2021 : It always amazing to think that Greenwald was once actually a lawyer, like Rudy Giuliani. The federal defenders are some of the best public defenders in the country.

- 15 November 2021 : Seen a couple of conspiracy posts, this article says the prosecution conceded that the rifle was not a "short-barrel" as charged. Again, the charge shouldn't have been filed, showing again the ineptness of the prosecution in a high profile case. https://twitter.com/lawcrimenews/status/1460302360987717640

- 15 November 2021 : Closings are staring now in Rittenhouse!
- 15 November 2021 : Honestly, I appreciate that he is giving America a view of what criminal courts are actually like (slightly insane), as opposed to the judges who put on a whole show when on camera.
- 15 November 2021 : Rittenhouse judge "Lunch has already been ordered. (*smirk) I'm not gonna comment on the lunch."
- 15 November 2021 : @neo_antiquarian I think he's trying to walk a line in tacitly supporting one and not the other, but more importantly, the key quote, once let the face-eating leopard into the room, don't be surprised when it eats your face too. (also our democracy)
- 15 November 2021 : yea it's a bit all over the place, I really just like that one line
- 15 November 2021 : I have some quibbles with the article, but the key point is above - once we cross this line, there's no going back. Every elected official will campaign fulltime to avoid recall, leaving little for effective governing. And while this round is by far-right funders, next time...
- 15 November 2021 : I have not, I guess I might be assuming some things based on the location of the trial. I don't recall if jury selection was televised, I didn't see it.
- 15 November 2021 : I guarantee both sides are feeling sick rn. Listening to the instructions (which can take around an hour) while waiting to get up and fight for your client is hard. I hate it, but once you are on your feet, you've been waiting for this moment the whole trial, it's your best shot.
- 15 November 2021 : Here's the statute with some analysis https://twitter.com/ASFleischman/status/1460279110194941957?s=20
- 15 November 2021 : Reading the statute, it seems like this is the right decision. It is a reflection again of the bumbling prosecutor not knowing what he is doing. I think he still has a chance to pull it out with a great closing, but there is nothing I've seen so far to suggest he is capable. https://twitter.com/Phil_Lewis_/status/1460271871744688132
- 15 November 2021 : Lawyers have been commenting, cases are decided in jury selection, in openings, by X witness, by the instructions. Closings are where the magic happens though, that's when you get to argue the evidence and law and your last chance with the jury. Gonna be interesting to see here.
- 15 November 2021 : Everyone on the left and right seem convinced that KR is gonna walk, except for one thing - the jury. Every lawyer has lost cases they should win, and won cases they should have lost. Juries do funny things and decide a case on facts that the lawyers aren't even focused on.
- 15 November 2021 : The judge in Rittenhouse is now reading the jury instructions, or the law that the jurors will have to follow in deciding the case. This is what the attorneys will focus on in their closing arguments, what the facts or evidence mean under the law as given by the judge.
- 15 November 2021 : Atlantic writers have never seen a problem that can’t be fixed by more police, for instance, the rise in homelessness. Should we focus on housing or treatment? Noooo, there’s a “new meth” that’s driving the nation’s housing crisis so clearly we just need cops, not homes. https://twitter.com/rottenindenmark/status/1459776097109872641

- 14 November 2021 : And honestly, no one should lose their civil rights or civil liberties, even miserable little far-right people, until there is a lawful basis to investigate. But the difference in how Muslims were treated and white folks is why good people lose faith in police and government.
- 14 November 2021 : Just about every domestic terror attack since 9/11 has been by white nationalists, domestic extremists, all tied to the far-right and republicans. And somehow these groups never get investigated until they attack and then everyone is like, oh no, how did little Kyle get this way?

- 12 November 2021 : Your coolness is established!
- 12 November 2021 : There are some subsets of civil litigators that do actually go to trial, but definitely not big firm attorneys. They might second-chair their first trial in their 10th year in practice if lucky. Ask a witness about chain of custody or something.
- 12 November 2021 : Just read that the Rittenhouse prosecutor is a former Big Law "civil litigator" which explains a lot. For non-lawyers, civil litigators mainly research, write, and send snarky letters, trials are exceptionally rare. The only real trial attorneys left are criminal lawyers.
- 12 November 2021 : I remember preparing for my 1st homicide trial and an experienced attorney told me, “Well, it’s just a regular assault case, with 1 less witness.” Which is more true in a self-defense case like Rittenhouse, where his 2 victims are unable to tell their side because he killed them.
- 12 November 2021 : Please stop all the bad takes about self-defense laws before someone does something dumb and weakens the prosecution’s burden. 99% of these cases are just normal cases without all of the political and racial implications.
- 12 November 2021 : Well not necessarily, we need to know if bias impacts witness testimony, but it is individualized analysis based on the facts of the case.
- 12 November 2021 : Disagree! Self-defense cases are often excellent cases for trial, maybe the favorite of criminal defense attorneys.
- 12 November 2021 : I will likewise limit my commentary on the rule against perpetuities

- 12 November 2021 : This is not true at all, btw, you can't defend yourself based on what someone "might" have (though cops have gotten away with this). Maybe read a few jury instructions on self-defense?

- 12 November 2021 : While someone’s political views are not usually relevant in a criminal trial, here the judge was completely in the wrong. The witness had a clear and established bias that was relevant to the subject of his testimony. These rulings get worse every day. https://theintercept.com/2021/11/11/rittenhouse-trial-judge-blocks-prosecutor-asking-far-right-videographer-biased/

- 11 November 2021 : In contrast to the judge beating up on the Rittenhouse prosecutor, this is more consistent with everyday criminal practice. Prosecutors lie, cheat, and steal, and judges clap along. It is the nature of the system, do not let truth or justice get in the way of conviction. https://twitter.com/davidminpdx/status/1458860865948569600
- 11 November 2021 : The judge was correct though, as much as it pains me to admit, the prosecutor violated a pretrial order, and put evidence in front of a jury that was excluded. Good ruling, I'm sure my poor, Black & Latinx clients will receive the exact same protection from the court.

- 6 November 2021 : Renee, I don't know what is going on with you, but I get attacked on here by extremists all the time and no one has gone after my kid. Yes, posting that you know where he goes to school and the cost can help one of the crazies find him. I don't think this is cute or funny. pic.twitter.com/0OJeXZLKJ9
- 6 November 2021 : Tell me a single thing that isn't true, Pete. I'll wait.

- 5 November 2021 : Renee, regardless of the crowd you run with, I expect better from you. Like I've told you a number of times, leave kids out of this. Have I ever one time asked where your kid(s) go to school? Or anything personal like that? We can debate issues without being creepy about kids.

- 1 November 2021 : I'm gonna learn math!
- 1 November 2021 : That would be great, let's get the best minds working on this.
- 1 November 2021 : I guess first problem for not-math-guy me is, there are still 4 votes unaffected. So a change of 0-3 can have an impact, but it depends on which way the other 4 vote. If they vote together, the recall is meaningless in this math problem, cause you only need 4 to pass.
- 1 November 2021 : Ok I’m not great at math, though I enjoy learning about it. What kind of math dictates that change in political leadership of 0-3 leaders on a 7 person body, will definitely change X vote resulting in a 10 mil savings? (We don’t know what X vote is, or which way the new 0-3 vote) https://twitter.com/peteskomoroch/status/1454888782721781762

- 30 October 2021 : Honestly, I have no opinion on the substance of the vote. Housing is an important lane, but it's not my lane and there are many brilliant people in SF working on it. But if ya'll start another dumb recall, even against supes I may not vibe with, I'll still fight for democracy.

- 28 October 2021 : Blame the DA, judges, the truth is the feds are handing out 5 year sentences for street-level dealers every day for decades. Has it made the TL safer, cleaner, free of drugs? No, it just makes us feel like we are doing something, while avoiding doing the hard work. /3
- 28 October 2021 : We all know, you lock 10 dealers up, there are 10-20 more in the morning. If there was stability, there is now war as new dealers fight for turf. This is why we have the drug war-related violence. We need to address demand, addiction requires treatment, jails fail at that. /2

- 26 October 2021 : One thing this discourse around use of the term "victim" at trial has me grateful for - practicing in courts all throughout California has taught me all of the unique and horrible ways our clients get treated based on the courthouse, prosecutor, and judge.

- 26 October 2021 : Sorry for your loss 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
- 26 October 2021 : I think the problem though is when we, the defense community, dump on a judge for making the right ruling that we want in our cases, it lends credibility and cover for the judges to do the same to our people. Which is why I pushed back on this too.
- 26 October 2021 : Sorry, I fight for due process for everyone, because once we start picking and choosing who gets it - our clients lose. That means even people I may personally despise, because if they aren’t gonna give it to the little nazi, they aren’t gonna give it to the people I represent.
- 26 October 2021 : Any defense attorney sh**ting on the court’s ruling to exclude the use of the term “victim” in any trial is a hack and needs to switch sides. https://twitter.com/fodderyfodder/status/1453119459510693889

- 26 October 2021 : Funny, here in the Bay Area it is routinely granted. As it should be. Which says something I guess.
- 26 October 2021 : I genuinely hope the recall folks placed former ADA Perkins in a nice job, because I don't think an office in the Bay Area is going to hire her after all this comes out. Nor should they.

DA agreed to let judge decide, then reversed because of fear that judge might follow the law. https://48hills.org/2021/10/an-sf-courtroom-veteran-says-the-chron-is-missing-the-point-and-the-facts-on-boudin/

- 26 October 2021 : I think one of the most glaring problems around the DA recall is just simple ignorance about how our justice system works - and why the right wants to keep it that way. And when only one side is presented by the media, I understand how some decent people have been misled. https://twitter.com/panhandlehoops/status/1453035293993410561 pic.twitter.com/LaurOJWgfc

- 26 October 2021 : Turns out the dude who twitched just wanted to scratch his nose, but they came out with guns and had to act like tough guys, now one of them is dead. It sucks, which is why acting like a tough guy isn't always such a good idea.
- 26 October 2021 : Imagine both people with guns, talking smack and both reaching at the same time. One sees a twitch thinking the other is moving, the other the same. They both move, pull, shoot. One is left. Was it self defense?
- 26 October 2021 : So the answer of who is a victim is one for the jury to decide, though we may have already decided for ourselves. The judge made the right ruling, against a sh**ty miserable little person. And I support it, because I expect the same ruling for my clients /fin
- 26 October 2021 : I want follow up, since I see a lot of folks posting outrage at the AJ/Rittenhouse post re lawyers calling the people killed victims. To any of us who watched the videos it seems obvious that they were victims of Mr. R, along with nasty little white supremacists around him. /1
- 26 October 2021 : After we shoot your family, you get a pink patch from one of @LACoSheriff deputy gang members. And what's with the murder bear in the middle? Poor little Alex, the pink made him feel less manly so needed to add a murder bear. Tough. https://twitter.com/LACoSheriff/status/1453046620413575170
- 26 October 2021 : We usually call the person the “complaining witness” which is more accurate and less prejudicial. Good prosecutors do this as well, screeching insults at the defendant usually doesn’t play as well either.
- 26 October 2021 : Yea, it’s a weird distinction and they better be able to prove it up - that they were engaged in rioting, etc. But as a defense attorney, I generally don’t go after the person who was hurt or killed in that way, I don’t think it is helpful.
- 26 October 2021 : His argument is going to be self-defense, so it is an argument whether the others were victims. It’s a triable issue, eff this guy but I think a good attorney could walk him.
- 26 October 2021 : That’s why SoCal is so effed. It’s a standard in limine up here and almost always granted. They can say it in argument, but it is a legal conclusion and improper otherwise.
- 26 October 2021 : “Our congregants essentially had to answer for what we were doing at a personal level,” he said. “We had to do a lot of work around the idea that just because someone is poor or a person of color, it doesn’t mean they’re dangerous.” https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/He-wanted-to-let-homeless-neighbors-sleep-in-cars-16563651.php

- 14 October 2021 : Two issues became crystal clear last year (1) there are a lot of police across the country with ties to domestic extremists like Oath Keepers, Proud Boys, 1/6 Insurrectionists, etc., and (2) many police are fighting vaccines. Anyone wanna sketch out the Venn diagram on that one?

- 14 October 2021 : will review, thanks
- 14 October 2021 : I've read some of his writing around policing and the problem is that it is not particularly well-informed. And seems to deliberately ignore the details that don't fit his narrative. Drop an article, I'll read it.
- 14 October 2021 : Matt has how many followers? How many of them have taken the time to do the work underlying reform? They read Matt dumping on reform efforts and it undercuts the actual work. People are hurt every single day by our collective failure to reform policing. Ignorance hurts people.
- 14 October 2021 : I guess why is that even the question? Did "defund" succeed? It's a cheap strawman to drown out real discussion of the need for reform for public safety. Which I think we all agree on, but when that is the narrative, shifting the focus to a false choice - reform or public safety.
- 14 October 2021 : There's fair criticism of certain views and ideas of any activists across the board, but just dumping on police reform without doing the work causes real harm. People get hurt because people like Matt refuse to engage with reality and promote falsehoods.
- 14 October 2021 : I think it is insulting to all of the people working hard to try and reform policing and keep our communities safe to blithely state that reform failed and you were dumb for trying. If I sound frustrated, it has been an ongoing narrative from Matt and others in this area.
- 14 October 2021 : Facts > feelings
- 14 October 2021 : But wouldn't it be better to comment on things that are actually true? Vs. "what he believes to be true." I could dump 100 articles under here about reforms that have taken place since Floyd. He's just wrong on this one, I don't understand why he is still fighting this battle.
- 14 October 2021 : And what the f- is the goal of dumping on activists for advocating for positive change? Why not focus on those in power who have fought police reform for decades leading to the numerous tragedies/crimes of recent years.
- 14 October 2021 : Not this John!
- 14 October 2021 : Prove that, even by inference, even by analogy, that is garbage.
- 14 October 2021 : Depends, he seems to be limiting it to transferring money from the police to the community. I don't think that is anyone's actual perspective of what the campaigns arising from the murder of George Floyd sought to achieve.
- 14 October 2021 : And how did it detract from other campaigns? Police reform is not a linear process, just because not every reform was enacted in every department across the country, denying it happened is dishonest.
- 14 October 2021 : Absolutely, the activist campaign (not that there was a singular campaign, nor complete agreement), has had numerous successes across the country. A simple google search for police reform would have answered that question.
- 14 October 2021 : Matt, ever think about sitting this one out? Or at least learning something, doing some basic research, talking to experts (other than cops). You can do a ride-along for free, this seems excessive.

- 10 August 2021 : "When I was a child, San Francisco was known for streets so clean you could eat off them. Sometime after the 1960s, that fell by the wayside. I blame it on the Summer of Love." This has to be satire. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/08/09/san-francisco-has-problems-12000-trash-cans-are-not-answer-any-them/?tid=ss_tw
- 10 August 2021 : I think in my little bubble, the folks I respect were against Cuomo from the start. Said all the same things that are being said now, the democratic party just didn't want to hear it. He was their guy. So I'm a bit skeptical of their condemnation now. Sorry he got caught, maybe.

- 9 August 2021 : It’s a con, it’s always been a con. They are freaking out rn because we are onto the con. But if you want to stop murders, address the causes first, instead of just cleaning up the mess after. And stop hurting the communities you claim to be helping. /6
- 9 August 2021 : Even when you think you know who did it, witnesses explain why the murder happened, past disputes, rivalries, disproving an alibi, motive, intent, and opportunity. How does policing impact what a witness will say? That’s where over-policing comes in. /2
- 9 August 2021 : Since the whole Vox/Atlantic police union fan club have turned their sassy energy to solving murders, let’s talk about how murders get solved. You know what the key to most murders is? Witnesses! Even with cell phones, social media, surveillance, you need witness to tie it up /1

- 3 August 2021 : if only alcohol killed covid...
- 3 August 2021 : Fun fact, courts allow police to stop and search (usually Black) people because they live in a "high-crime" area. Doesn't matter that is where they live, no matter that it is high-crime because it is over-policed. Just by living in certain neighborhoods, you lose your rights.

- 1 August 2021 : Prosecutors are all about accountability, literally every other word out of their mouth, the “defendant” needs accountability. Ever see a prosecutor get held accountable?

- 28 July 2021 : True, but that's the difference between state and federal practice. Feds are generally excellent writers, but don't do trials. State do a lot of trials, but aren't as good writers as the feds. Judges barely read briefs in state, fed judges are great in that regard.
- 28 July 2021 : Law school is entertaining, but spend as much time in/near the practice of law if you want to be a lawyer. Every credit hour you can take doing intern/externships is where you will learn the practice of law.

- 27 July 2021 : Looking back, it seems clear that a lot of the news and noise generated by the conservative media (police, critical race, crime, recalls) this year was driven to distract us from the fact that the republican party staged a terrorist coup attempt on the Capitol on 1/6.

- 25 July 2021 : Police searches can lead to guns and drugs, this is true. But that goal has led to the complete lack of trust many communities have with police. If you are getting stopped and searched every time you walk to the store, you probably aren't going to respect cops so much.

Politicians who select members can either entrench bad policing and corruption or appoint people willing to take it on.

- 9 July 2021 : One of the biggest causes of police violence is simple fear, but it’s not always rational fear. It is the result of indoctrination by right wing police unions who create an us-vs-the animals mentality. Police work can be dangerous, but irrational fear puts the community at risk.

- 2 July 2021 : If you are charged with a crime, you have a constitutional right to know if the police are dirty (Brady). Problem is police don't actually turns it over to the prosecutors and prosecutors don't work to get it. Jury doesn't know, innocent people convicted. Good guide: https://twitter.com/IIP_JohnJay/status/1410655566884753411
- 2 July 2021 : What's the Uber/Lyft business model now that VCs have stopped subsidizing the rides? It's like $30 to go 10 blocks in SF. Seems un-American.
- 2 July 2021 : Yet another example of a prosecutor cheating to win, imprisoning an innocent man, and facing ZERO consequences. Thankfully DA Boudin fired her, but she just went to Santa Clara to keep imprisoning people. This is why people have no faith in our prosecutors and courts. https://twitter.com/larabazelon/status/1410964097131110404

- 2 July 2021 : He’s so little tho! I just want to put him in my pocket and carry him around.
- 2 July 2021 : He’s keeping the door open for the next trump to kill people. It’s an act of cowardice masquerading as integrity.

- 1 July 2021 : Justice Breyer should probably retire. But right now that means the coward Joe Manchin essentially gets to pick who replaces him. We will certainly get a younger justice, but also likely far more conservative than Breyer. Am I wrong?
- 1 July 2021 : Keeping Black people from voting used to be the job of the KKK, now it is the Supreme Court that fills the role. As the number of minority voters increases, expect the white supremacists (what else can I call them?) to enact more of these laws. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/07/01/supreme-courts-new-ruling-confirms-its-enemy-democracy/?tid=ss_tw
- 1 July 2021 : Yea I don’t care if it’s trump’s buddy or some poor kid on a 187, these types of perp walks are outdated, usually racist, and absolutely unnecessary. It is usually the prosecutors who stage these because they want the media attention. Not how our justice system should run. https://twitter.com/acyn/status/1410663122956734464
- 1 July 2021 : If wasn’t prosecutorial incompetence it was willfully breaking the law.
- 1 July 2021 : It could be the union driving it since it is a promoted post. If they get the airport gig, they get more members, more members = more money.
- 1 July 2021 : Berkeley’s @NancySkinnerCA has authored or led some of the most important reforms for California, including police and criminal justice reform. We are lucky to have her. https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2021/06/30/first-name-image-likeness-law-california-nancy-skinner/
- 1 July 2021 : I think it’s that plus jobs plan. With jails closing lots of spaces to fill. Plus, it’s an awesome assignment you just hang out at the airport. I’d take it!
- 1 July 2021 : Weird San Francisco police turf battle taking place on twitter, sheriffs are lobbying for the airport assignment which belongs to SFPD. It is the cushiest assignment with 100s on waiting list. My view is that better trained cops should be in the City, where there is actual crime. pic.twitter.com/AnOlKPotvs
- 1 July 2021 : It’s more about their love of Taylor Swift than anything.

- 1 July 2021 : This is the dumbest trend that police have been using across the country, playing copyrighted music so it will get taken down if posted to YouTube. Every one of these cops should be fired. It is very simple don't hurt people, do corrupt stuff, and you have nothing to worry about. https://twitter.com/verge/status/1410629294729084933
- 1 July 2021 : Interesting, I haven’t seen this before in an actual newspaper. Or maybe I’ve never noticed it.
- 1 July 2021 : It may feel good to blame the republicans, and we should, but ultimately it is the losses by democrats in nearly unlosable elections that put us here.

- 1 July 2021 : “We need to refuse to continue being duped by the fearmongers, by a self-interested police force, and the leaders beholden to them.

- 30 June 2021 : Absolutely dragging the prosecutors in Cosby is in no way defending him or anything about the case. It’s just so rare to see prosecutors be held somewhat accountable for their lack of ethics and cheating, that yea, I’m glad they got caught. It happens to non-Cosbys every day.

- 30 June 2021 : They are worried about being disrupted
- 30 June 2021 : There's a new breed of innocence/social justice defenders who only want to take on criminal cases when the client is innocent and hasn't done something harmful to white people. They aren't real defense attorneys and should never be mistaken for one.
- 30 June 2021 : Amazing news for San Francisco!! ❤️ https://twitter.com/cart_sf/status/1410073269688958979
- 30 June 2021 : Every true believer public defender and criminal defense attorney would gladly be out of work tomorrow if the drug war and mass incarceration ended. Contrast that to the police and prosecutors fighting to suck every nickel of tax money out of our communities.
- 30 June 2021 : There are so many fun things to do in life, nobody wants to be working on police and criminal justice reform. But the people who f'd it up won't do it without all of us pushing back on the racism, cronyism, corruption and incompetence in the system. https://twitter.com/msolurin/status/1410050714190102528

- 29 June 2021 : No reform or policy can change the worst parts of police culture as long as the blue wall of silence/omerta exists. Policing can have no legitimacy as long as it is guided by organized crime principles. https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2021-06-29/george-floyd-officer-lane-thao-kueng-criminal-charges-policing
- 29 June 2021 : Or even one night a week. Unless you are in or around the criminal justice system or impacted by it, most people never understand the impact of all those crime-hype news (even when it’s not fabricated by @abc7newsbayarea ) on children, families, ordinary people. https://twitter.com/adamjohnsonnyc/status/1409849311542886400

- 27 June 2021 : Thoughtful thread on Chauvin sentence and the complexities of undoing mass incarceration and its impact on the Black community. It's fair to feel a little "max him out" energy at the sentencing.

- 27 June 2021 : If you think Biden has changed since his crime bill/drug war days, I haven’t seen the evidence. He sent this little old grandmother back to prison for missing a call, while she was trying to better herself through classes. Away from her family and children/grandchildren. https://twitter.com/dyjuantatro/status/1408979290562121728
- 27 June 2021 : “The root problem comes from economic reasons related to COVID. We need to address those economic reasons first,” he said. “If they want to add more cops and increase the budget, that’s another dollar that can’t go to nonprofits or preventative programs.”
- 27 June 2021 : It's not just that some of the local news folks are still in 2021 posting mugshots, it's that you are pretty much only posting Black mugshots. Wonder why that is? #racist
- 27 June 2021 : Holy unhinged reply guys on this one. No one is arguing on facts, data, evidence, just feelings. Which is fine, we all have feelings, but we should set policy based on facts. https://twitter.com/susieneilson/status/1408452914285264900

- 25 June 2021 : We now return to our regularly scheduled broadcast of manufactured crime stats and hyperbolic police sources.
- 25 June 2021 : Nobody is born a monster, but how you are raised, what you experience, what you learn, can lead you to do some pretty evil things. Was Chauvin this way before he became a cop, or because he became a cop? Because if it is the latter, then there is a lot we can do to change things.
- 25 June 2021 : Yup https://twitter.com/breenewsome/status/1408517828953751553
- 25 June 2021 : This changes nothing about the fundamental problems with policing in this country.
- 25 June 2021 : I sincerely hope that Chauvin finds redemption and rehabilitates himself, contributes back to society for the damage he has done. I believe that anyone can change.
- 25 June 2021 : George Floyd will never be back, but I hope his family can find some peace. There's rarely any real "justice" in our criminal system, no matter the length of the sentence.
- 25 June 2021 : I think the aggravating factors were pretty strong in this case, it was cold, calculated, under the color of authority, murder of a helpless man drawn out for 8 minutes, 46 seconds. I don't see how the judge could have given him much less.
- 25 June 2021 : 22.5 years for Chauvin.
- 25 June 2021 : Uh oh
- 25 June 2021 : He did say, my condolences, but again, I think his attorney has some hare-brained idea about how it will impact the appeal. As @JuiceandJustice knows, there's a way to give a meaningful statement AND protect the record.
- 25 June 2021 : If you are a defense attorney and you don't have control over the entire defense presentation, including letters, statements, etc., you are doing a shit-poor job of representing your client. Normal people don't know what to say and not to say, that's on you.
- 25 June 2021 : Oh no, Chauvin lawyer guy, please stop.
- 25 June 2021 : Oh god no, Mom. This is malpractice, she is talking about his innocence, still not a word about George Floyd.
- 25 June 2021 : Chauvin's defense lawyer starts by calling his client "the defendant." Big no-no, dehumanizing, first year lawyers know better than that.
- 25 June 2021 : The Chauvin prosecutor started by talking about the officers that testified against him, recognizing the danger that put them in. That's insane to think about, that's how organized crime prosecutors talk. Why do we allow the same gang culture to exist in policing? https://twitter.com/KatiePhang/status/1408497925395783689
- 25 June 2021 : That's probably true, that's what he started with.
- 25 June 2021 : He looks like he lost a bet and was forced to do this.
- 25 June 2021 : The Chauvin prosecutor handling the sentencing is uninspiring at best.
- 25 June 2021 : If you are serious about criminal justice reform and ending mass incarceration, this is the only consistent position, as difficult as it may be. We have to believe in a better system, more based on rehabilitation and reform, even for the worst of those among us. https://twitter.com/NiggaTheory/status/1408488179863150598
- 25 June 2021 : The media as neutral and objective about crime - what a fascinating idea! Wonder if anyone is gonna try it. https://twitter.com/davidminpdx/status/1408152012273774592
- 25 June 2021 : Watching the surfside situation in Miami continue to unfold reminds me of 9/11 and hoping that they find some people in the rubble. Devastating.
- 25 June 2021 : @LyanneMelendez and @abc7newsbayarea might want to take a look before tagging the DA in your news posts. Police aren’t arresting and shoplifting is down. https://twitter.com/susieneilson/status/1408452914285264900
- 25 June 2021 : Go back to promoting the Iraq War, idiot.

- 25 June 2021 : It’s all a propaganda push by the police union and republicans/VCs trying to recall the DA. Their rallying cry is “VC Lives Matter.”
- 25 June 2021 : “While shoplifting incidents haven’t surged this year or last, the rate of shoplifting incidents ending in citations or arrests did go down.” DA can’t prosecute if no arrest. No surge. It’s all right-wing propaganda, stop spreading it. https://www.sfchronicle.com/crime/article/Is-shoplifting-rising-in-San-Francisco-Here-s-16272907.php

- 23 June 2021 : Oh btw, Walgreens or anyone else can hire SFPD officers at time and 1/2 pay, which police love because of the rate and relative ease.

- 22 June 2021 : C.W. Nevius! There's a name literally no one has heard of in years, or since his days on the San Francisco homeless-bashing beat at the Chron.

- 18 June 2021 : The lack of coverage of LimGate and @abc7newsbayarea has been abysmal. When a “reporter” fabricates a story, that implicates all journalism, but especially the media that covered it up. Is SF media more interested in protecting one of their own over the truth?

- 20 April 2021 : If your police leaders can’t come out and say the simple facts - George Floyd was murdered by Officer Derek Chauvin, violating every legal and moral standard for use of force - they stand with Chauvin.
- 20 April 2021 : Our system of mass incarceration is built on the belief that there are such distinctions. Horrible people deserve the same justice and due process as the innocent.
- 20 April 2021 : It's important to remember that the opposition to Gascon is led by the police unions and their allies - who are afraid of being held accountable like Derek Chauvin. Same in San Francisco with Chesa. https://twitter.com/CarpendiCacoeth/status/1384638869832814595

- 20 April 2021 : This is the message that is going to be pushed out - justice was served, the system works, everyone move on. Except how many other cases of police violence/killings have happened since George Floyd? A 13 year old child. Come on! Every time we move on, people die. https://twitter.com/ztsamudzi/status/1384607463970787340

- 5 March 2021 : This is the problem here with many of our leaders. The debate around gun control has never expanded beyond locking up Black and brown people for carrying them. Without ever bothering to ask why. And how can we change that. https://twitter.com/uhshanti/status/1367730693900357632
- 5 March 2021 : Investigation just released links one of the SF supervisors who has been attacking the me with the horrible police killings/badge-bending celebrations in Vallejo. @myrnamelgar , do you support police officers celebrating killing civilians? https://twitter.com/geoffwking/status/1367710880763244545
- 5 March 2021 : Don’t listen to me, listen to the people who lived survived that life. And thrived after getting through it like @NiggaTheory . And if you haven’t read his work, order it tonight. It’s on my desk at work every day. https://twitter.com/niggatheory/status/1367694431722172417

- 4 March 2021 : Who exactly are you @EmbarcaderoSafe
- 3 March 2021 : There's always next year! 😅
- 3 March 2021 : Really the lunchables feature made the song.
- 3 March 2021 : I just don't feel that I have the right, from the comfort of my life and relative safety, to tell him not to protect himself. What would you have him do? Because there are two real choices, carry or die. And yes, he went to prison for carrying in this case. But he also lived. /4
- 3 March 2021 : Someone in his car pops back and they high-speed away. Survived another day. Wasn't looking for trouble, but someone tried to kill him, again. Firing back sent the other car away. None of this should happen, but it did. And it wasn't the first time. /3
- 3 March 2021 : He starts carrying guns. Catches 2 gun cases, so now a felon in possession. Has to go to probation, but the other side knows he will be there. Goes in, pee tests (even though never drugs), and leaves. Immediately ambushed by gunfire from another car. /2
- 3 March 2021 : @myrnamelgar & @SupStefani a real-life scenario: A young man in I represented had been shot multiple times in his teens (I've seen the horrible scars and bullet holes). Best friend died in his arms after catching a bullet in his head in the backseat of a car together at 15 y/o /1 https://twitter.com/myrnamelgar/status/1367147932307230720
- 3 March 2021 : Just last year, a young man I'd known in the Richmond community for years was gunned down outside the corner store. His mistake was posting that he was going to the store on social media. One of his best friends called me to tell me the news. He said, "He didn't have a gun." /3
- 3 March 2021 : So I agree. And I don't. Unless everyone is willing to disarm, you can get killed for being on the wrong block, having the wrong uncle, wearing the wrong clothes, or just by being mistaken for someone else. It is a real ever-present danger. /2
- 3 March 2021 : The hard thing about this discussion is responses like this make intuitive sense. Kids shouldn't have guns. We can all agree on that, right? But many of my clients have been shot or shot at since they were 10-12 years old b/c of their neighborhood. Just kids playing outside. /1 https://twitter.com/celesteperron/status/1366965649935769603
- 3 March 2021 : How about instead of just spending your days trolling, come down and meet me? You can bring some sandwiches, I’ll get coffee. It’ll be a public safety picnic.

- 3 March 2021 : This includes Black kids in rough environments as much as it does our friends in the suburbs.
- 3 March 2021 : People absolutely have a right to defend themselves within the confines of the law. Defending property without any danger, you might want to get a good lawyer on stand-by. Start here https://www.justia.com/criminal/docs/calcrim/3400/3470/
- 3 March 2021 : It would be a stretch to read it that way, but no. Nor am I justifying the way we have allowed our communities to become so dangerous that it is a life or death decision kids and adults are forced to make. https://twitter.com/hamasakilaw/status/1366909073833136131?s=21
- 3 March 2021 : I broke the news to another client that his little brother was killed, shot dead in the street in SF walking his little nephew to school. I sat in jail with him as this "tough" kid sobbed for hours. His remaining brother was shot and killed the next year. I sat with him again. /4
- 3 March 2021 : Years ago, thinking I knew best, I agreed to represent a young man only if he would not carry guns. (2 open gun cases.) He was killed along with a child a few weeks later, both shot dead in a car. No gun. His friends were posting "pull through" on IG as he was dying. /3

- 2 March 2021 : It’s hard to argue with the alt right in SF because there is always “a very important person” who they won’t disclose that sees it the other way. All anonymous, emotional, and anecdotal, no facts, figures, and data.
- 1 March 2021 : Are you suggesting that they should sell naming rights instead? Bold, but kinda gross 🤢

- 28 February 2021 : The NYT and other East Coast media outlets created the myth of Andrew Cuomo as a covid-savior despite all of the evidence to the contrary. They also sometimes write articles about San Francisco which are even dumber.
- 28 February 2021 : The difference between private and public schools opening has always been about resources. Wonder why the "reopen now" crowd isn't fighting to actually spend the money to reopen schools. https://twitter.com/thehill/status/1366123759338278913
- 28 February 2021 : You gotta love when the @latimes just runs the police and prosecutor union (and notorious anti-Semite Steve Cooley) press release and calls them "victim advocates." This is embarrassing. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2021-02-27/group-plans-to-launch-recall-effort-against-newly-elected-l-a-dist-atty-george-gascon

- 27 February 2021 : That's some pretty terrible framing, the complaint is public record by law. It is the county counsel that is trying to block release of the names of the perps. Maybe consider the victims next time.
- 27 February 2021 : Asians are not your effing prop to promote your anti-Black agenda. We are allies against you.

- 26 February 2021 : You never realize how absolutely ridiculous prosecutors can be until you watch them try and turn literally vandalism into the crime of the century. They tried to give @IamMRMOSELY brother Ralfy life for tagging. https://twitter.com/joshgerstein/status/1365381145093943298
- 26 February 2021 : @NiggaTheory @JuiceandJustice My question is, where is Kamala and the #KHive when it is another Black woman prosecutor being attacked?
- 26 February 2021 : There is absolutely nothing stopping the Democrats from including it, less than nothing even. This is a cheap tactic to avoid a policy that most of them never supported - living wages. https://twitter.com/SenFeinstein/status/1365368255737643012
- 26 February 2021 : Much of mainstream criminal justice reporting is simply rehashed press releases from police and prosecutors. It is important to challenge this type of propaganda, even at major outlets like WaPo. Solid thread below. https://twitter.com/JohnKRoman/status/1365252896477110272
- 26 February 2021 : I think that this city lost tens of thousands of long term residents and natives over the tech boom. Many/most of them working class, BIPOC, etc. I’m sorry about your two friends, but also hopeful that we can rebuild this city. Aren’t you?
- 26 February 2021 : There is nothing that makes team trump more angry than a Black woman prosecutor. Is the left just going to let them come after Tiffany Blacknell like they did Kamala? KHive? https://twitter.com/BillFOXLA/status/1364993969399103490
- 26 February 2021 : I remember when tech started pushing out the working class, creatives, nightlife and artists that built this city they said that we should just accept that a brighter, whiter future. I’m glad lots of good ones stuck it out and welcome everyone trying to rebuild from the ashes. https://twitter.com/brokeassstuart/status/1365003414149632003

- 26 February 2021 : Not gonna be mad when he’s right.
- 25 February 2021 : The CA Supreme Court had to step in and force certain prosecutors from preying on 14-15 year-old children. Keep kids safe, support reform prosecutors. https://twitter.com/antirecidivism/status/1365006437957599236

- 24 February 2021 : The prosecution of Bobby Shmurda was really a landmark case in the criminalizing of rap by police and prosecutors. NYPD police commissioner and noted racist Bill Bratton admitted he was upset about Shmurda's "vile dance moves" at the time. @shwinyo https://t.co/kqGYsrtQVi
- 23 February 2021 : We need to start thinking of wrongful arrests and prosecutions as hate crimes.

- 22 February 2021 : Parents have every reason to be tired and frustrated by schools being closed. Pay attention to your new friends, though, who are using your pain to elevate the trump agenda. The far right has been trying to tear down public schools since they were ordered to desegregate. https://twitter.com/girlsreallyrule/status/1363485966095245313
- 21 February 2021 : Toughest topic for the API community to address because of the complex historical history. "We need to address the anti-Asian racism and we need to address the anti-Black racism. We need to hold all those things at the same time and not be against each other.” @CAAsanfrancisco https://twitter.com/VivianHo/status/1363549834775392257
- 21 February 2021 : People talk about their communities the way they talk about their partners, friends, co-workers, and children. If you spend your energy trashing the ones around you, we don't need to be friends.
- 20 February 2021 : Hear me out, DoorDash, but for teachers. 😕
- 20 February 2021 : "The problem of rising crime is real, and addressing it requires that we consider more than simply the menace of bad boys with guns. It demands we take into account needs of neighborhoods that suffer most from its fallout — and that means more than warehousing folks in prisons." https://twitter.com/CristineDeBerry/status/1362862699848241153

- 18 February 2021 : I don't handle cases involving SFPD, because...I oversee them.
- 17 February 2021 : Here are the SFPD crime trends for violent and property crimes for the last week and 2020-2021 comparison. There tends to be a lot of misinformation out there, but it is important to see the whole picture. Clearly a lot of work to do, but some bright spots. pic.twitter.com/3jg3oTe1dn
- 17 February 2021 : Some categories of crime are up, most are down. I think that is actually a great suggestion re BWC, assuming it is turned on, it should reflect the encounter. I would encourage people to report it directly to @SF_DPA the complaint form is here https://sfgov.org/dpa/complaints
- 17 February 2021 : This has come up repeatedly and needs to stop. When police discourage individuals from reporting crime, we aren't able to accurately assess our crime rates. In addition it decreases community faith in law enforcement across the board. New policy may be in order. https://twitter.com/dana_dru/status/1361879271355027456
- 17 February 2021 : Not to say that bloated police budgets lead to an increase in crime, but it does suggest that we need to be more mindful of how we allocate our taxpayer resources. I do not believe police should be held responsible for homeless, mental, and public health issues.
- 17 February 2021 : We have some tough decisions to make at the Police Commission. Shootings and property crime surged after record budgets and 6% police union raises. Implementing programs like @CART_SF will free up police resources to deal w violent crime https://www.sfexaminer.com/news/sf-police-consider-laying-off-11-percent-of-officers/
- 17 February 2021 : Sure thing, Fredo.
- 17 February 2021 : Thank goodness they have you to carry water for them.
- 17 February 2021 : trump and his minions really hate our system of democracy. If voter suppression doesn’t work, then it’s launch a terrorist attack on the Capitol. The same folks are calling for recall after losing miserably in elections throughout CA. It is all the same grift.
- 16 February 2021 : Bro, what? “Cooper’s therapist reported that it was a moving experience and that Ms. Cooper learned a lot in their sessions together," the prosecutor added. "Having completed the restorative justice program to our satisfaction, we now move to dismiss.” https://on.msnbc.com/3rYT1ca https://twitter.com/barnes_law/status/1361690656066867201

- 12 February 2021 : This is the worst framing. A grand jury is locked in a room with a prosecutor who decides what evidence to present and arguments to make. 99.99% of the time the grand jury does exactly what the prosecutor tells them to do. This was exactly the outcome the prosecutor wanted https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1360258625009307653

- 11 February 2021 : Now this is a drug arrest. Back in July/August 2020 did meth dry up in SF/Tenderloin? Were our streets safer? Not saying it’s not significant, but it didn’t change a thing on our streets. We need a comprehensive approach, not just buy/busts and press releases https://twitter.com/nategartrell/status/1359936909590470656

- 9 February 2021 : The greatest beneficiaries of the War on Drugs has always been...drug dealers. Too many dealers, too much supply = prices go down. Dealers rat out other dealers who are selling better product for lower prices. Police make a bust, post some pictures of dope. Circle of life 🦁

- 31 January 2021 : In San Francisco, the Police Commission has required that all cases of misconduct be concluded and findings made when an officer resigns.

- 30 January 2021 : One thing you learn quick in criminal defense, cops that lie to suspects, lie in their reports, and lie in court. It’s legal, but only dirty cops lie. Prosecutors can stop this in a second by telling police they won’t use this tainted evidence. https://twitter.com/nytopinion/status/1355269402200047627
- 30 January 2021 : Ash, Bonta, or Goodwin Liu are all solid picks. Schiff is a bad #resist joke.

- 27 January 2021 : Mainly is misdemeanor land, there is pressure on both sides. Some offices tie promotion to felonies on some set number of trials. Ultimately, on the defense side, all that matters is the best interests of the client. If that is trial, go forward!
- 27 January 2021 : Doing criminal jury trials to “get experience” is one of the most racist and predatory practices new attorneys engage in. Pushing “trial stats” by supervisors is unethical.

- 25 January 2021 : Police and prosecutors spend a lot of time upset that they don't have respect in the communities they work. Here's the question though: Outside of work, collecting a check, what have you done to serve the community? What public service, volunteer, or pro bono work?
- 25 January 2021 : Black & Brown people, Muslims, women, LGBTQ, etc.

- 25 January 2021 : The "thin blue line" is no different than gang/organized crime "no snitching" rule. Until police departments are willing to challenge that culture, the dangerous and extremist officers will continue to hide in plain sight within police depts. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/police-capitol-riot-extremists/2021/01/24/16fdb2bc-5a7b-11eb-b8bd-ee36b1cd18bf_story.html?tid=ss_tw

- 22 January 2021 : I still use "criminal justice system" even though people aren't "criminals" there is rarely "justice" and it's an incredibly cruel and racist "system." I only use it because it is how people who don't work in it understand what I am referring to. But here for better term.

- 16 January 2021 : Every defense attorney, public defender, activist, and advocate has been begging @LASuperiorCourt to stop putting lives at risk.

- 15 January 2021 : I should also add that I was exposed by an anti-mask prosecutor so had to quarantine for 2 weeks.
- 15 January 2021 : @LASuperiorCourt has put attorneys, the public, and the court staff in danger every day with an incredibly reckless approach. Worse than I have seen in numerous counties. No masks, no enforcement, laughable safety protocols. It is genuinely scary to be an attorney there.

- 7 September 2020 : We need to focus less on demonizing immigrants and more on addressing the demand and use of drugs.
- 7 September 2020 : Nobody is happy with the state of opioid abuse in our city, nor the people selling on the streets. But every time we do a big operation, charge people federally (mandatory minimums), there is ZERO difference on the streets. As long as drugs are profitable, someone will sell them.
- 6 September 2020 : Yea, it's nice the Post has a go-to police hack to back up their idiocy.
- 6 September 2020 : Two of those have AC, one does not. Like San Francisco rn.
- 6 September 2020 : Holy hackery: Maria Haberfeld, at the John Jay College “We cannot be ignorant of the fact that police are under a microscope,”. “[It] does not encourage the average officer to out of his her way clear the cases, because even when they do there are accusations of misconduct.”
- 6 September 2020 : Okay, so there are some preconditions. Person must be: 1) Dangerous 2) Criminal 3) Sells "deadly" drugs 4) AND carries a weapon. That's going to be far less people than you imagine.
- 6 September 2020 : My only point was that life is much more complicated than your deport-them-all approach. Glad we made some progress today.
- 6 September 2020 : Great, so we agree that perhaps not everyone should be deported for selling drugs?
- 6 September 2020 : We have fought a drug war in this country and in SF for 50 years and guess what? Drugs won. They are more accessible than ever. Even if we followed your plan to deport every immigrant who comes into contact with drugs, nothing would change on the streets.
- 6 September 2020 : I appreciate the passion, but like much of life, it's not that simple. I understand the build-the-wall-deport-them-all approach you are suggesting, but in real life things are more complicated. Many of the sellers are human trafficking victims, would you like to deport them?
- 6 September 2020 : So first time person sells a tiny amount of drugs, you want to send them to another country? How about if they came here when they were five? How about if they don't even speak the language and have never lived in the country. You may not like it, but you sound just like trump.
- 6 September 2020 : I think you would have better luck tagging trump and his friends if deportation is your thing. San Francisco isn't really into tearing apart families and putting kids in cages.

- 3 March 2020 : Thank you, Bloomberg, for reminding us all what happens when we completely racialize law enforcement and criminal justice.
- 3 March 2020 : LAPD seems completely incapable of just arresting the suspect and taking him to jail. He isn't any normal suspect though, just like Ed Buck and Harvey Weinstein, he's one of the people that law enforcement and Jackie Lacey's office has protected from accountability. /4
- 3 March 2020 : And generally, to punish and imprison those with no power. Lacey's husband committed 2 clear felony 'strikes' in threatening to shoot the activists. Any other person would have been in cuffs immediately and in front of a judge within days. Instead, nothing. Except... /2

- 15 February 2020 : Said perfectly, in theory. You can raise an affirmative defense at preliminary hearing. But the prosecutor can still re-file after a dismissal at px, or indict to avoid pesky judges who follow the law. Not sure recourse in FL.
- 14 February 2020 : I believe you can raise it before trial and have a hearing that will determine whether the court will determine whether you immune from prosecution. So instead of a trial defense, you have a judicial finding that the law bars prosecution.

- 10 January 2020 : Thanks to @PaulDetrick and @reason for continuing to bring attention to the misuse of rap lyrics by prosecutors!!
- 10 January 2020 : The DNA PROVED he wasn't the killer, and the Yuba County DA's Office still sought the death penalty. Innocent young man sat in jail for 3.5 years, before the case was finally dismissed. The evidence ID'ing the real killer was available the whole time, no one bothered to look. 2/2
- 10 January 2020 : Great reporting by @mgafni showing everything wrong with our criminal justice system. Cops coerced a obviously wrongful confession from mentally ill young man, the DA's office ignored the forensic evidence which ALL pointed at someone else. 1/2 https://projects.sfchronicle.com/2020/suspect-next-door/

- 30 December 2019 : Looks like we are neighbors. North Beach is where I first heard the classification of new arrivals as tourists, which does make some sense. I do think it takes longer than a few years to really understand and appreciate this city with all its complexities.
- 30 December 2019 : The original post was definitely a tad flip, I was annoyed with the constant complaining about the city by new arrivals. Esp those that don’t do anything to help make things better.
