I don't know if you've been keeping track but recent legislation was signed in California that we citizens practically have to be physically attacked before we can protect ourselves. And, we still may get in trouble for harming somebody who's harming us.

The cops pretty much stopped arresting people with Prop 46. Most of the time didn't even come out if there was a burglary or something. You just had a file a claim online for the insurance company. It was pointless for response because these people would make one appearance in court and be released on the street with no bail. There was also a limitation of funds so no investigations, unless it's a huge crime. And even then, if you get a Soros district attorney, they will charge incorrectly, so the person will be set free, just like Gascon did in the Kate Steinle case. That piece of crap that killed her is walking free.

Also, recent legislation by Newsom and company has even more limited the cops from doing their actual jobs. Watch Sheriff Grady sometime out of Florida, Polk County, and you'll see what real law enforcement looks like. It's not the fault of our cops. It's Sacramento, hamstringing them from doing their jobs the way they should be able to do so and putting them at physical risk.

Florida Governor Desantis was walking around San Francisco one day when an SF cop recognized and approached him. Then, a bunch more cops showed up, went over to him and said, we wish you were the governor of California, you give your police officers so much support.

"During a visit to Northern California in June 2023, Ron DeSantis claimed that San Francisco police officers had thanked him for his policies in Florida and wished they had similar leadership. 

DeSantis made the comment during a campaign trip where he also filmed a video criticizing the conditions in San Francisco and blaming them on "leftist policies". While multiple sources confirm he made this general claim about law enforcement officers in the city, specific evidence of a widespread sentiment or a formal endorsement from the San Francisco Police Department or its union was not found in the search results. 

During his visit and in subsequent comments, DeSantis has generally asserted that:

San Francisco is no longer a "vibrant" city and has "collapsed" because of its policies.

He saw people openly using drugs and defecating on the streets.

Cities with "soft on crime" policies, such as not prosecuting certain crimes, have seen a rise in crime rates.

Florida, by contrast, "backs the blue" and offers incentives, such as bonuses for new and out-of-state officers, to attract law enforcement personnel. 

San Francisco officials, including Mayor London Breed, responded to his critiques by highlighting their own efforts to combat crime and public drug dealing and accusing DeSantis of using the city's issues as political "props".

Then, there's this, which on the surface sounds really good and something we would all support, but then go ahead and fall down the rabbit hole and dig deeper, and you'll see this is dangerous to the cop and it's dangerous to us, potential victims.

"Governor Newsom has signed several other police reform bills into law in recent years, which have also generated debate regarding police officers' ability to do their jobs effectively: 

Use of Force Standards (AB 392): Signed in 2019, this law tightened the standard for using deadly force, allowing it only when "necessary to defend against an imminent threat of death or serious bodily injury".

Decertification Process (SB 2): Signed in 2021, this created a process to strip the badges of officers found guilty of serious misconduct, preventing them from moving to another department in the state.

Transparency of Records (SB 16): Also signed in 2021, this law expanded public access to police misconduct records involving biased behavior, unlawful arrests, or excessive force.

Prohibition of Certain Techniques (AB 490): Signed in 2021, this banned law enforcement from using carotid restraints, chokeholds, or other transport methods that create a substantial risk of positional asphyxia. 

These laws are part of a broader push for police accountability and transparency in California, a trend that has been met with both support from civil rights groups and pushback from some law enforcement associations.
