Clueless San Francisco DA Chesa Boudin disses law-abiding citizens

NYP:

“We’re dealing with a small number of wealthy individuals,”said embattled San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin of the forces driving his recall vote, in an utterly clueless interview with The New York Times. 

Sorry, but numbers don’t lie: 83,000 people signed the current recall petition against Boudin in a city with a population around 874,000. If that’s “small,” we’re curious what he would regard as big.

Other numbers are crucial here, too. Crime is up significantly in the city Boudin works for, with burglaries up 40% from pre-pandemic levelsand homicides up almost 37%.  

Those increases mostly took place on Boudin’s watch, and citizens are sick of it. His soft-on-crime policies — including the elimination of cash bail, restriction of pretrial detention and letting out as much as 40% of the city’s jail population — have had the same results in the City by the Bay that they’ve had everywhere else.
