If there is one thing I know, only one maybe 2 of you retards have ever been to SF and have any right to talk about any of this shit like you know what you're talking about.

Crime in SF has become a big problem since prop 47

And BTW, to get back to the original video, even Snopes has debunked the whole "there's no law in SF" thing: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/sa...lifting-video/

Wow, a snopes article, real cutting edge argument you got there.

The issue isn't that police aren't arresting people. Although side note, they have been making many less arrests for these petty crimes, especially for minority suspects. The risk of a lawsuit against the city when one of these fuckers pulls a knife then gets shot by the police is just too high (not to mention the effect on overall economy when bleeding heart liberals block traffic and demand justice for every weapon-wielding shitstain that gets put out of their misery).

The issue is that, after arrests, they are either released immediately without bail, given a slap on the wrist, or have the charges completely dropped in the name of "restorative justice". They go on to immediately commit more crimes because the basic deterrent for not committing crime does not exist.

The video I posted is a symptom of this system. Please shut the fuck up with your snarky dismissal, it's clear you don't have a clue what's really going on.

Do have fun at the baseball game, though. I hope to god you don't get attacked by a homeless person or run over by a recently-released drunk driver. You don't want to join the growing cohort of law-abiding citizens who have their lives irreversibly changed without any recourse from a city more interested in protecting the criminal element.

Dude, if we can't cite evidence such as an impartial source to back up our arguments, what's left? Who can yell the loudest in text?

But since you didn't like Snopes, how about an academic study that specifically looked into the question of whether Prop 47 caused an increase in crime?

Quote:
“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,” Kubrin said.
(NOTE: That's the study's author talking about it in English; if you want the actual study itself you'll have to pay one of those journal sites, eg. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/...745-9133.12378)

I could have probably gotten free Medicare including SRS if I went homeless in SF.

Butt. Fuck. That. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

This is why the snopes article is bullshit, IF YOU READ IT.

Quote:
Prop 47, which California voters approved in 2014, reclassified some minor crimes as misdemeanors instead of felonies, with the intent of reducing what was at the time a severely overcrowded prison population. The aim was also to reduce the number of people serving long sentences and ending up with felony-conviction records for petty crimes.

Prop 47 increased the felony threshold for certain types of theft from $450 to $950 — meaning the simple theft of property valued below $950 is a misdemeanor. It also reduced simple drug possession (possession of drugs without the intent to sell) to a misdemeanor. The claim that Prop 47 is to blame for the incident depicted in the video is representative of misinformation that has been circulating about the law for years, said George Gascón, the former district attorney of San Francisco who is now running for the same position in Los Angeles County and who co-authored Prop 47.

Although the threshold for misdemeanor-versus-felony theft prior to Prop 47 was $450, it’s unclear whether the new law makes any potential difference in the San Francisco case.
IN the actual snopes article, it sys "it's unclear weather the new law makes any potential difference in the cited case.

YET THEY SAY FALSE that prop 47 had any affect on it.

THIS is why people dont listen to each other on the internet, because they site things that directly contradict what the thing they site claims.

What an absolute garbage website snopes has become (or maybe always was?)
