KFI: The Citrus Heights Chief of Police and President of the California Police Chiefs Association, Ronald A. Lawrence is coming for Prop 47 ahead of Super Tuesday. He represents all 333 municipal police chiefs in California and blames Proposition 47 for the increase in homelessness and drug addiction.
“When you’re in the trenches, you know this is not a housing crisis, but a drug addiction and mental illness crisis. Prop. 47 is a dismal failure and an inhumane way to deal with drug addiction and homelessness. Before it went into effect, we had mechanisms and means to get people the help they needed,” says Lawrence who has spent thirty years in law enforcement. read more

Amen Tony R, Amen.
“Drug addiction and mental illness” – – in otherwords LIBERALISM.
“Never let a crisis go to waste.”
– some liberal, and lots of real estate developers and the legislators who serve them.
