San Francisco local businesses and employees are calling for change as they describe increasingly brazen shoplifting and car break-ins.
Many residents told Fox News they believe changing California law Proposition 47 is the solution.
"The police are actually wonderful, their hands are tied, that’s what’s going on out here." Gianni, a local who works in Fisherman’s Wharf, told Fox News.
San Francisco Police Department's Public Information Officer, Robert Rueca explained "There’s a threshold of 950 dollars that needs to be met in order for a misdemeanor to turn into a felony when it comes to theft."
"We have to enforce the current laws we have," Rueca added.

Sounds like another job for Kamaa. Let's find the root causes.

Under current California law, local law enforcement entities can arrest these less than $950 thieves and they can be charged with having committed a misdemeanor punishable by up to 6 months in county jail.
According to an explanation from California Courts, Proposition 47, known as "The Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act" provides:
"The proposition added to create a new misdemeanor offense called 'shoplifting,' punishable by up to 6 months in county jail. Shoplifting would be defined as 'entering a commercial establishment with intent to commit larceny while that establishment is open during regular business hours' where the value of the property does not exceed $950. Any other entry into a commercial establishment with intent to commit larceny is burglary. Any act of shoplifting as defined above must be charged as shoplifting. No person charged with shoplifting may also be charged with burglary or theft of the same property."

Not so much tied as sat upon, by choice.
An all-time insulting response from the powers that be.

And the Xiden regime is deploying "strike forces" to California to track guns. That'll show 'em!! But the thugs will continue robbing stores totally unarmed.
We are in for a wild ride.

No sympathy for these people. They are so enlightened in their beliefs that they elected the enlightened mayor, council, and DA who ate responsible for ruining the city as well as Hair Gel Newsom. God forbid they vote for a Republican!

I suggest since the left likes free-for-alls they should leave 47 as is but also make shooting anyone committing a misdemeanor also a misdemeanor or non-criime.

Those bible lessons come to mind. Never underestimate the depths of depravity to which a soul bereft of God will strive and reach.
Romans 1
24Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 25Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; 29Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: 32Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

Here's hoping that, in a rare moment of clarity, a conservative will be elected in the upcoming recall election. If not, I have no sympathy for voters who keep voting idiots into office.
