And we're sure that this is statistically different than any other period of time and that the policies of the DA are behind it?
Despite this being Hacker News, I see a lot of people here reacting to sensationalist single data points and not a whole lot of discussion about trends on this issue.
- refurb 6y agoNot sure how that’s relevant? If people in SF are unsatisfied with policing matters, then recalling their DA seems reasonable whether or not it’s a recent problem or one that’s been on-going. And Chesa hasn’t done himself any favors in his response. The latest issue is pretty disheartening with a women being raped by a guy who had attacked another woman only a few weeks prior.
- throwaway2048 6y agoHacker news is full of reactionary types and has been for a long time
- refurb 6y agoSome woman was attacked and restrained by some guy known to the police then 2.5 months later rapes a woman while wearing an ankle monitor and you're trying to dismiss those concerns as "reactionary"? This is just one example. There is the young woman run over by a driver who had a string of serious crimes in the past. There are others. https://abc7news.com/potrero-hill-attack-san-francisco-crime-woman-attacked-sf-ankle-monitor/10396172/ https://abc7news.com/potrero-hill-attack-san-francisco-crime...
- jahaja 6y agoWhat's reactionary is your comment history.
- lawnchair_larry 6y agoYes we are sure. They campaigned on it and are very open about it. Nothing sensationalist about it. It’s underpublicized in my opinion.
