But this isn’t a short term solution either. 50 additional beds isn’t going to cut it, and psych admissions to hopitals only stabilize the patient and then spit them back out. It doesn’t solve the problem of the individual not having a home and not receiving care for their condition.

This isn’t help, though. Psychiatric stays at hospitals stabilize the patient and then discharge them. It doesn’t actually give them a means to stay stable. What they need is a house with supportive programs to keep them clean and give them mental health care.
Leave it to a cop to never realize that not every problem requires a hammer.

Yeah, it’s very sweeping in the same way something like Lawrence of Arabia is. Especially with all those vista shots and the shot of the funeral procession marching towards the imperial blockade. It really makes turns it into this epic about people coming together to form the rebellion.

You’d think right.
We asked for this when we collectively went “muh crime” and voted in an ex-cop with delusions of grandeur.

No, it’s because the mayor is a pig who thinks such targeted policies are “socialism”

Garcia had a head on her shoulders while also having a bold vision for the city.

So much for the city of yes, am I right, Eric?
We deserve this chaos for voting in this clown.

> I claimed that I unlike you was born in this city and lived here my whole life
I fail to see how that matters, given we’re all transplants unless you’re a Native American, so don’t pull the “I was born here” card like it suddenly makes your opinions worth more.
> You calling me a fascist because I'm defending a politician that, in the window of American politics, is significantly on the left,
Bullshit. The man is a DINO through and through.
Funny how you can only resort to petty insults about me instead of arguing the facts. Get fucked, ya fascist.

Lmao
You’re being played if you think Adams is taking crime seriously. There’s a reason he never had a comprehensive policy plan on the matter outside of “be tough on crime and roll back bail reform.” He’s failed in both measures, so now you have no reduction in crime and no bike lanes

It’s almost like elections have consequences.
But no, he said what people in the “muh crime” camp wanted to hear, and that was it.

Because the city’s “solution” isn’t actually one.
