San Francisco now paying criminals to not shoot anyone

Recommended Posts

One would think this headline came from The Onion or The Babylon Bee, but no, it was dreamed up by SF's Human Rights Commission and Office of Economic and Workforce Development.

San Francisco will pay criminals not to shoot people (or get shot themselves).

Starting next month, San Francisco criminals deemed high risk will be paid $300 to $500 EACH MONTH in which they neither shoot anyone, nor get shot. 

San Francisco modeled their program after one in Sacramento.   Promoters of that program boast that ‘only’ 44% of participants were subsequently arrested on new charges, though another 33% dropped out of the program.   And presumably, some not-insignificant percentage of the participants shot someone without getting caught.  But other than that, it was an unqualified success, at least in the mind of the Office of Economic and Workforce Development.   Why they consider this program Workforce Development isn't clear.
