There’s glaring racial inequity in SF's Public Safety system. Black residents are victims of crime at rates significantly higher than their population. See chart below. We’re not surprised the Police Commission does nothing about it, but heck, could they at least talk about it?
@SanFranciscoPOA
Since your bring race into this which race is the majority committing these crimes against black people?
Why did you leave this part out?

It certainly warrants some intense screaming at the next
@sfbos
meeting. Sad reality SF D5 TL is losing a generation of Black residents to overdose and that's a tragedy that demands your attention Dean. ARREST and PROSECUTE drug dealers

That's called black-on-black crime. Like in Chicago, Detroit or Philadelphia, the subject of BOB crime is carefully maintained out of the conversation.
@SanFranciscoPOA
That's always been the case in every single urban area of the USA and has only gotten worse than past historical norms with less police in ALL neighborhoods in the post-George Floyd/De-fund world. What did people think would happen? It gets worse for everyone, ding-dongs!
@SanFranciscoPOA
When you live by your emotional truth, this data clearly exemplifies the great system racism of the White, Asia, and Hispanic community toward the Black community.
Factual data may prove otherwise.
But that's not the world San Francisco wants to live in.
@SanFranciscoPOA
The answer to this is to put more of the people committing the crimes in jail. But wait, then you'd complain that there is racial inequity in the jail population. You can't have it both ways.
