New San Francisco District Attorney-elect Chesa Boudin said he won’t prosecute public poopers — urination and defecation in the streets — and other behavior like aggressive panhandling. Will decriminalizing anti-social behavior cut crime in the sh**ty by the bay? Would you believe Boudin was reared by Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn? Stephen Green, Bill Whittle and Scott Ott contrast this approach with Rudy Giuliani’s broken windows theory approach that turned Time Square from Sodom to virtual Disneyland.

Dan Bongino talks a lot about broken windows policing, because he was a NYPD officer while it was implemented. He said it works because the guy who is hopping turnstiles on the subway today will become the guy who stabs somebody on the subway six months from now. So over the course of a year, stabbing incidents drop dramatically. Either because the guy who would do it is in jail for hopping turnstiles, or he calculated that if he can’t get away with hopping turnstiles, there’s no way he can get away with stabbing somebody on the subway.
If a politician gives a speech on a city Street; is that street prostitution and/or public defecation?
Was in NYC with my family during the “Rudy” years. My sister asked if we wanted to go to Times Square… I asked if she was kidding and told me how much it had changed… (I had not lived in NY since 1972, so I was a little out of touch) We went and had a great time. Now, my sister says it’s very nearly as bad as under Dinkins again.. Soooo Sad.. Love that town….. I guess it’s true, people generally get the gov’t they deserve.
As far as the new DA of San Fran, Nature/Nurture ??? Just sayin’/askin’
I believe the solution is, “Intervention”.
The real beauty of the ‘broken windows ‘ policing is in the numbers, 15000 muggings doesn’t mean 15000 muggERS, same with thieves , it’s their job, each of these guys may commit one or two crimes a day. Since they live this way they also never pay for a subway token, they just jump the turnstile and hop on. Cops realized if you just grab them in the act of the little crime and check for warrants you find that most of the turnstile jumpers are wanted in connection with a bunch of other more serious crimes.
I haven’t been to Hollywood since 2016. But the last few times I was there, whole neighborhood smelled like bum pee.
