New law gives S.F. police authority to enforce street vending regulations

The law walks back the three-strike system Wiener sought when he introduced the legislation. It also still requires Public Works' support

So…beat a cop with a flagpole on Jan. 6 and get a pardon. Toss a sandwich at a Kevlar vest and suddenly it’s “lock him up”? That’s what passes for “backing the blue”? Please.

In the Netherlands, we’re closing our emptying prisons. What can other countries learn from how we did it?

The Dutch prison population has fallen by more than 40% – and awareness of the harms of harsh sentencing could explain why, says Dutch writer and journalist Renate van der Zee
