LA residents fed up with officials, demand change after homeless crisis spirals in city


"Our homeless crisis has increasingly become a public health crisis," Newsom said. "Last year, there was a hepatitis-A outbreak in San Diego. Recently, there was an outbreak of syphilis in Sonoma. And now, typhus in Los Angeles. Typhus. That's a medieval disease. In California. In 2019."

Drug abuse causes a ton of unnecessary BS. Tolerance of use is one thing, enabling public abuse is complete insanity

California Gov. Gavin Newsom says many homeless people on the streets of San Francisco are from Texas. Former California assemblyman turned Texas resident Chuck DeVore reacts.

[mrichartz]

Liberals...blame it on someone else or in this case just make stuff up...
If it's because people are taking bus tickets to Texas.??
Doesn't mean they are from texas!!! More likely the smart side of the family moved already!!! And got the hell out of the ****hole state...Texas..It's the first or second highest transplant area for people leaving California.... haha
But its Texas's fault California has a homeless problem
Who's next inline to blame for the progressive liberal failed polices...but give them all the needles and drugs they need and let them crap in the street..

San Francisco board rebrands 'convicted felon' as 'justice-involved person,' sanitizes other crime lingo


Crime-ridden San Francisco has introduced new sanitized language for criminals, getting rid of words such as “offender” and “addict” while changing “convicted felon” to “justice-involved person.”

[mrichartz]

Yea got carried away...just can't believe it..
Was really expecting to get to the end and be an article from The Onion

Ok where are the local liberal Dems on this? What say you? Because I know damn well they aren't all nuts..
I know plenty personally that think this crap is a joke..
And they arent voting Dem anymore either..

Holy... WTF...you cant make this stuff up..
They can't fix it..just rename it..haha progressive liberal Democrats are a joke..
Seriously, Justice involved sounds more like someone working for...not a convicted felon ...
And another can't fix the problem make it disappear so no more using the word addicts..just call them (enter ridiculous comment here..

"The local officials say the new language will help change people’s views about those who commit crimes."
That will not change the way I feel about these
assholes commiting crimes etc..will definitely
Change the way I feel about these jackasses in SF
govt well nope still think they are total morons
Putting it politely..
Really how's that work??
It's still a drug addict,homeless,crap and needle filled st ****hole no matter how you brand it..

A juvenile “delinquent” will now be called a “young person with justice system involvement,” or a “young person impacted by the juvenile justice system.”

"And drug addicts or substance abusers, meanwhile, will become “a person with a history of substance use.”
Next it will be the person committing crimes just call them good guys with with an attitude...

We don’t want people to be forever labeled for the worst things that they have done. We want them ultimately to become contributing citizens, and referring to them as felons is like a scarlet letter that they can never get away from.”

Yea we won't want to hurt their feelings now...

The sanitized language, though unlikely to do much to address the crime problem, may result in some convoluted descriptions of crimes in the future.

The newspaper noted an individual whose car has been broken into could well be known to police as “a person who has come in contact with a returning resident who was involved with the justice system and who is currently under supervision with a history of substance use.”..
Hahahaha

Actually yea let's start a post/thread of list of ridiculous things to rename all the different criminals and crimes!

In Seattle, arguably the country's most liberal city, homelessness remains one of the most divisive topics. Over the past five years, the city has seen an explosion in homelessness, crime, substance abuse and addiction. Residents say they struggle to balance compassion with growing resentment.

In all, the city spends $1 billion a year fighting homelessness. That's $100,000 for every homeless man, woman and child in King County and yet the needle has mostly been moving in the wrong direction. Residents say there is a deep disconnect between them and those in charge and say elected officials are tone-deaf and offer up simple solutions to a complex problem.

California’s Newsom signs bill allowing citizens to refuse to help a police officer


California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, on Tuesday signed a bill that no longer requires any "able-bodied person 18 years of age or older" in the state to help an officer who requests assistance during an arrest.

That is a good thing, in my opinion. A person should not be allowed to be ordered to help an officer while making an arrest. The potential for exposure to disease or injury is too great and then what? They are not covered by workman's comp and then they do what? Sue the city? The person being arrested? And the average person does not have the proper training to be effective and potentially puts the officer at risk.

Personally I would always help. But I realize that there are some people that are just better off to keep moving along.

If the cop is struggling to subdue a criminal and the criminal possibly has an advantage, I will jump in and help!!! Other wise I am saying out of the way!

A Democrat siding with a criminal (one of their own) is no surprise. Especially a Cali liberal Democrat!

Say one day you in the course of minding your own business happen upon a man who is on top of a uniformed officer. Clearly having the advantage over the officer and it looks he is trying to restrain him with force. What do you do?

[Forkin' Crazy]

What most citizens would do. Take care of business.

[SS Minnow]

And when it turns out that the man in plain clothes was actually a plain clothes officer struggling to restrain an im-poster in a fake uniform?
Take it up a notch. This happened in an anti 2A city, Chicago. You interfered in a police investigation, maybe with a firearm (I am always armed) how does that work out for you, or I? Just some scenarios presented to me at a recent training session.

Tricky questions, just intended to make one think. We live in interesting times. One can go from "looking to help an officer" to "just shot one in the back" way too quickly.

Oh come the fuq on!!!! 448140 How many times does that happen? BTW I KNOW what law enforcement officers look like.

Is not my argument. Was from a retired law enforcement officer that was teaching a concealed carry class. Not sure if story was true, or just told to make one think. Regular everyday Joe's and Paul's do not have blanket immunity. You and I want to help, and will help. At the same time we have to watch our 6.

My training says kick the one on top in the head or nuts and hold both at gunpoint till backup arrives.

Before I took the course, my reaction was to shoot the plain clothes that was on top. Now though, yeah, kind of what you say.
Look at the way sworn law enforcement are run through the ringer for doing the right thing, just doing their job.
Crazy times we live in. Glad I am not a spring chicken. Stuff is a gonna get interesting.

[XstreamVking]

We had a similar scenario happen here. Bad guy over came an older deputy on the side of the road. Was beating the crap out of him. CC holder pulled up and the guy pulled the deputy's gun and made the mistake of pointing it his way. 3 accurate rounds later it was all over. With the leo's testimony he was cleared of any wrong doing. Was kind of a local hero, which he was imo. It takes guts to get in the middle of deep stuff like that. Split second decision.....
