These programs work. As much as i think scott is kinda timid and needs to be more assertive & proactive, his crime approach is the right way to address the problem. If anyone's interested in an overview of these types of crime prevention programs, check out focused deterrence and operation ceasefire: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Ceasefire

This is good. I'm not totally celebrating till we actually get convictions, but this is progress. Gotta crack down on the gangs. It's really the prosecutors that need to step up, you can arrest all the people you want but unless they're convicted they're still on the streets doing crime. But at least they're doing it right and going after the gangs, which is progress

Yep this is the right way of doing it. Problem is 311 kinda sucks, you have to schedule a time waaaaay in advance to have them pick it up so they won't even pick it up for like 3 months from now cuz they're apparently "booked" smh

It’s a waste of some of the city’s most valuable real estate, plus it’s just super seedy. Also, most of the clubs are only open for like 2-3 hours a day so yeah the space would be better used by businesses that attract a more diverse crowd and are open throughout the day & night. Personally I think local food would be great, especially since the harbor is a lot of tourist crap like ihop etc.

  • try not to make a bunch of trips out of your seat. The aisles are super narrow and it’s hard to walk down the row. Also v annoying to have to keep getting up cuz the dick next to you insists on gorging on his 13th hot dog

  • if someone in your row is getting up, you have to actually get up to let them by. Your knees block the aisle if you don’t get up. Yes it’s annoying but it’s part of going to a game. Was at the bills game and the kids next to me weren’t getting up (fuck yall) but shoutout to their mom for telling them off for it

  • don’t bring an umbrella they won’t let you in with it anyway

  • do NOT wait till the last second to head over. The stadium will be packed and it takes a while to go through check in plus it takes a while to walk to your seats. You’re gonna miss a lot of the game if you wait till 30 mins before the game to head over. Even in bad weather it’s gonna be packed

  • you need your ticket pulled up already when you’re in line- they scan the app so screenshots prob won’t work

  • ask stadium employees for help, they’re usually great and can get stuff sorted quickly. They’re there to help

  • be super careful when walking down the seat aisles, Fr they’re super narrow so if you’re planning on making 1 giant trip with a bunch of food/drinks you WILL end up spilling stuff on people and that causes fights. Honestly it’s better to pregame before the game and just get smaller food during the game, saves trips and money and the rest of the row will appreciate you not getting up constantly
