I’m curious how many people would agree with this comment. If Chesa and his policies are not considered far left, who/what is? It seems that his polices were on the extreme end of the progressive spectrum, and that both his supporters and critics would agree with that statement.

Politically I think the "don't enforce the law" camp includes the median democratic voter, especially in SF.

People keep getting shot and burgled in my neighborhood which used to be quite safe, the only thing keeping me from voting Republican until Democrats learn to stop being stupid is that the Republicans are so opportunistic and unprincipled that they'll gladly cheer while the republic is overthrown.

I dunno man, seems like he's a strong law and order DA. The only problem is he's applying the laws to people who normally get to do whatever they want, so yeah a well funded recall campaign.

Oh yeah, and those people who normally get to break the law with impunity are the cops.
