This is incredibly sad and disturbing.

Two women were killed last night by this man.

He was released last month after a burglary arrest.

(1/x)

According to the article he has a record of:
+ 2 counts of voluntary manslaughter
+ possession of a stolen vehicle
+ leaving the scene of an accident
+ burglary
+ driving while under the influence of alcohol and drugs

There is a question as to who is responsible here, beyond the suspect.

Apparently he was released on 12/23 for another crime.

There is an algorithm which makes suggestions, which judges and the DA office use as inputs.

Here is our DA's response:

It is my impression that the balance of justice is off-kilter in SF right now.

Feels like career criminals can act with virtually no consequences, until someone gets killed.

The "broken windows" theory is feeling truer and truer to me.

"The broken windows theory is a criminological theory that states that visible signs of crime, anti-social behavior, and civil disorder create an urban environment that encourages further crime and disorder, including serious crimes" (6/x)

Our streets are filled with broken glass and our sidewalks are covered with garbage.

Store windows are boarded up and almost nobody is out now after dark.

I want to live in a city where couples stroll at night, hand in hand, feeling safe and enjoying the stars... (7/x)
I believe we as a city can have that again.

But we need to be tough on crime.

When people steal, destroy property, drive inebriated, and sell drugs they should not be awarded the same freedoms as law-abiding citizens.

They need to be either a) reformed or b) detained.
My heart goes out to the wrongfully convicted, and criminals serving overly long sentences. We need to improve our criminal justice system.

But -- I'm sickened by the loss of life that occurred last night.

That man should have been in jail.

When criminals are released again and again with tickets and "stay away" orders, a certain tone is set.

The tone is that crime is tolerated here.

We need a standard of behavior, and a social contract.

When that contract is broken there should be punishments.

(10/x)
The social contract of SF is in trouble.

If we want to inspire giving back, community engagement, philanthropy... we need civic pride.

To feel civic pride we first need to feel safe.

To feel safe, our systems and laws must feel just. (11/x)
What happened last night wasn't just.

It was the opposite.

It was wrong, it was tragic, and it was avoidable.

I am hopeful that we do a serious post-mortem on this case, and reevaluate our approach to repeat offenders.

This should never happen again.

Just a taste of the absolute ignorance coming out of this failures mouth. He has had to withdraw from precious races because of his proven lack of ethics. A proven criminal, and here he is likely to lead America baring a miracle. Americans had best wake up.


For this to have happened in the US with the blessing of the Senate means the entire system has been compromised. McConnell has to say something because he knows Trump is on track to get a 2nd term. Otherwise he would have stayed silent and not risk the backlash he is going

To get with the base in Ga. He knows his antics are likely going to cost them the Senate. But at this point the establishment is all in to get rid of Trump. That is in spite of the fact Trump has done more for the party then everyone of the establishment Republicans combined.

He has increased the tent of the party and made significant inroads in breaking the Dems stranglehold on the blacks. His Latino support was greater the. Any Republican before him. He was on the way of accomplishing what no one ever thought possible, peace in the Mideast.

He brought record employment and growth to the US before they ushered in the virus scam, and even with that he beat them developing a vaccine in record time, and reestablishing the growth rate. Except the governors are hell bent on keeping their economies closed and

முதல்வரி: பிறவி என்பது முன்வினை விதையால் முளைப்பதோர் பெருமரம். அந்த ‘முன்வினை’ எங்கு ஆரம்பித்தது எனச் சொல்ல இயலாது. ஆனால் ‘அறியாமை’ ஒன்றே ஆசைக்கும்,, அச்சத்துக்கும் காரணம் என்பதால், அவையே வினைகளை விளைவிப்பன என்பதால், தொடர்ந்து வரும் பிறவிகளுக்கு, ‘அறியாமையே’ காரணம்

அறியாமைக்கு ஆரம்பம் கிடையாது. நமக்கு ஒரு பொருளைப் பற்றிய அறிவு எப்போதிருந்து இல்லை? அதைச் சொல்ல முடியாது. அதனாலேதான் முதலடியில், ஆரம்பமில்லாத அஞ்ஞானத்தை பிறவிகளுக்குக் காரணமாகச் சொல்லியது. ஆனால் அறியாமை, அறிவின் எழுச்சியால், அப்போதே முடிந்து விடும்.
