San Francisco voters pivoted away from their progressive
reputation Tuesday night, as a number of ballot measures
meant to rein in crime and drug use overwhelmingly won
the vote of city residents.
San Franciscans voted in favor of two measures - Measures
E and F - which will, respectively, expand some police
powers in the city and require drug screenings for adults
receiving welfare.
Proposition E will, among other things, make it easier
for police officers to pursue suspects. It will also
provide the force with new cameras and drones that are
meant to make their daily job of fighting crime easier
and more effective.
And Proposition F is designed to help adults struggling
with drug addiction, by telling them that they will only
remain eligible for cash welfare assistance from the city
if they enroll in a treatment program. Drug testing will
be required to ensure they comply.
. . .
"Woke" seems to be OVER - if SanFran goes this way
by good margins ......
The question is why they put up with such a horrible
doomed philosophy for so long.
HOWEVER, what's MISSING is a law requiring DAs and
judges to ENFORCE THE LAWS in respect to bail and
sentencing.
