Sounds a lot like NY post bail reform. Even in NY, bail reform has become wildly unpopular, yet the ruling elite keep refusing to take some of their bail reform efforts back. Even with the best of cops, people are going to have to get more used to being responsible for more of their own safety. I know that Austin is incredibly liberal, but it still pains me to see crap like this in the great state of Texas. “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” | |||

Section 230. Going to the SCOTUS already. Don't hold your breath expecting them to overturn it.

B-I-N-G-O!!!! Here's the problem in these democratic run, leftist utopias ^^^^ There's different LAYERS you got to get through! Get rid of the mayor, you now get rid of the chief of police, and the upper echelon of the department. Police only (can) do so much in the system- there's another layer. States / District Attorneys are at the next level. Prime examples; Garza, foxx, jenkins, krasner.... But wait, THERE"S MORE!!!! Judges! Can't do much if there's a whole mess of "Not Guilty" verdicts, or "Probation / Double secret Probation" sentences. Hold on, we'll toss in an ADDED BONUS! Parole boards! "Oh, this young rapscallion has learned the error of his ways, 27 years is way too long, we're going to let him out in 5!" ______________________________________________________________________ "When its time to shoot, shoot.

And with time "served", that comes out to 2.5 to 3 years.......Then everyone has a shocked face when said parolee commits a murder. | |||

Gee.. It's not like there isn't shining examples of what doesn't work very well. But in the true liberal mindset, others weren't doing it right and their way will work, if it fails then it was someone else's fault and not their idiotic decisions. | |||

Another rocket surgeon. San Francisco supervisor Hillary Ronen begs for more police in her district after voting to defund in 2020 "I'm going to cut my arm open with this knife." {slice} "Ahhhhhhhhhh! I'm bleeding!!! WHAT THE FUCK?????" ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||

Partial dichotomy |
^^^ And she said this? "I want to make it clear that I believe strongly in defunding the police and reducing the number of officers on our force," Ronen wrote. "For decades we’ve had an imbalance in our city’s budget, with hundreds of millions of dollars going to SFPD to have them do work they are not qualified to do." | |||

Back in the 80’s, Austin PD was one of the hardest agencies to get hired by. How times change. ______________________________ Men who carry guns for a living do not seek reward outside of the guild. The most cherished gift is a nod from his peers. | |||

SHE betrayed the City. Suck it up commie. "I’m not going to read Time Magazine, I’m not going to read Newsweek, I’m not going to read any of these magazines; I mean, because they have too much to lose by printing the truth"- Bob Dylan, 1965 | |||

This is the same genius who enthusiastically endorses paying reparations for slavery in a state which never had slavery. Five million dollars- one dollar a year for five million years. It's all about appearances and virtue-signalling, then being able to condemn all her political opponents for the choices she endorsed. They ain't too swift out in old 'Frisco, are they? ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||

Last week a guy at work was bitching about having his cars burgled and tore up again. I couldn't help it and burst out laughing. Seems the guy that is rabid anti-cop even though he has never been hassled, now wants more cops and do something about the poor "homeless" and rampant crime. Follow along next week on "What Could Go Wrong" | |||

SFPD is understaffed by nearly 600 officers, this is for a force that SHOULD be staffed by 2200 sworn members. Ronan represents the hipster center of the city, this chunk of irony is...delicious. So glad its on video, sadly she's not the most Left on the Board of Supervisors. Unfortunately, the alternative candidates resemble Portland/Seattle-level. | |||

What largely goes unaddressed is the fact that so much of these police departments' collective experience is lost due to these issues and no matter how many new officers are recruited, they are trained, evaluated, and led by less knowledgeable and competent officers, supervisors, and managers. The standards for applicants and trainees are reduced because the applicant pool is smaller and those that are hired aren't just less competent to start, those that they rely upon are less competent too. Look no further than the case of Minneapolis PD Officer Derek Chauvin and the inexperienced officers that were with him during the George Floyd arrest and ensuing death. MPD had these same issues and as a result of city "leadership" (lack thereof) decisions, created their own self-fulfilling prophecy. The long term harm from these anti-law enforcement/justice system pogroms will be felt for decades and I believe those promoting them know this.
