Sf's police state, mass incarceration system, and war on drugs have failed abysmally,
Making our community evidence shows more violent.

[SFisaPoliceState @SFPoliceState]

@paulg The obvious and predictable result of our abysmally failed #WarOnDrugs making our community more dangerous.

We are suing the city on constitutional grounds for their persistent horrific practice of stealing unhoused people’s property and criminalizing them for having no home.

Our hope for this lawsuit is a transformation of the city's street response.

People who use drugs are denied basic consumer protections and quality controls. There is an FDA recall on frozen fruit currently which involves 212,000 CASES of fruit due to possible listeria contamination. Pulled from the shelves. 1/2

@Scott_Wiener And here come the homophobes in Scott's comments.

Yes!
Pleading or negotiating with an oppressive, corrupt and politically driven regime for an exception for your particular drug of choice is so wrong!

We have to be united and campaign like mad to end the tyranny of the drug apartheid and advocate for all drugs to be legal.

@TSFAction Except you all know the evidence shows that incarcerating addicts mostly makes things worse. Seems like you're more interested in just clearing the streets.

[Resist and Persist @chrsdcook]

How sadly simplistic and meat-headed: many centrists believe that b/c we don't want to repeat the War on Drugs and mass incarceration--which don't fix drug addiction and typically make things worse--this means we think it's just fine to deal drugs and die in the streets. Wrong!

More Drug War bullshit in San Francisco. And more reporting that fails to do the basic work of challenging their assertions that this time, it will be different.

I found out that a professor from my alma mater is a member of the US Prevent Services Task Force, so I wrote him the following letter. https://t.co/lmmhwGvlat

A chronic pain patient was sobbing in my office today. Chronic pain isn’t a crime, nor is it always “all in their head.” Treat it. With compassion.

San Francisco is the worst-run city of the 149 biggest in the U.S., according to a new ranking of their operating efficiencies.
