1/2 - Why I care about the SFDA recall/race:

A tale of two events. Same girl, before and after the police showed up to make things safe.
In one photo you have a group of thugs violently taking over a park, in the other you've got some friendly skaters stopping everything so a little girl in a unicorn helmet can participate.

Well, since you asked a question and then *turned comments off* I'll answer. I live exactly a block from there. And how I feel about it? Disgust with how instigative, violent, and bullying the police behaved for the 2 hours before you cornered the kids and that train was painted.
Our officers did their jobs & did them with restraint. Why do some make excuses for this dangerous and selfish behavior? Nothing stopped this group from getting permits, and no one forced them to hold a neighborhood hostage. How would you feel if you lived here?

If you notice in this video the POA posts, it's dusk when the train is stopped and painted, meaning 2 hours after the police began firing on the crowd, arresting kids, and hitting them with batons. The brave ones that broke the police line and got away did this in protest.

Chandler is not a Public School Teacher. A search at the state credential database shows Chandler earned his Emergency 30-Day Substitute Permit on 4/18/2023. He was added as a sub in Sept, taught a class, paid his union dues for 1 month, and I couldn't find that he's worked since
In my role as a public school teacher I know how important education is.

Today marks one year since the recall of DA Chesa Boudin—a night I will never forget.
I wish I could say the false attacks on reform DAs have stopped since then, but the recall was only one of a series of coordinated attacks on prosecutors & criminal justice reform.
