So we're going back to the good old "tough on crime" method?

Edit: the "good" is sarcastic in case anyone misses it

From what Ive read on it, his progressive approach to crime led to even more problems and he often sided with criminals over victims. Sounds like he had no business being elected.

Be tough on those who have committed crimes (other than victimless or extremely minor ones). Try to help those who have not done so, avoid ever doing so; and those who have been tough on and completed their sentence, also help them not repeat their mistakes. These are not fucking mutually exclusive.

Look into who raised the man and how he grew up. Considering it was literal domestic terrorists who reared him I am not shocked he sided with criminals and allowed the city to be trashed under his watch.

Dr. Dre calls it Frisco, so I call it Frisco.

Also, looks like the mayor is going to pick the replacement, so instead of soft-on-crime, Frisco will probably get a slightly-less-soft-on-crime DA:

He was blamed for stuff that didn't do. Like it was claimed he let someone who attack an old Asian go. But it turns out to a little kid hit him with a plastic back after the old guy attacked him. And the right just ran with that.

Yep, I would also add that prison itself should be less a punishment, more a place of reform, teaching, preparing for a return to society, etc. But all that still requires stopping crime and catching criminals.

I would argue that it should be both punishment and reform. Where I'd draw the line is that it shouldn't be slave labor.

"The truth doesn't matter if enough people believe the lie," while true, is maybe not something to say with glee.

The truth is that violent crime was down under Boudin's watch.

Randomly saw this when scrolling

If I were a liberal, I would frame this a @mattyglesias style "popularism" take: if you want real criminal justice reform to stick, you have to be keep the streets clean.

It really is all about the vibes and the narrative isn't it.

Facts don't matter bro. People's perception of crime depends on if a place looks clean or not. We all do it sadly

I believe in other red states, the limit for it being a misdemeanor is actually higher.

For example, Ohio has it as $1000 and below is a misdemeanor. No one is bitching about the progressive soft on crime laws of Ohio though.
