If Sen. Susan Collins would like to work to make her hopes a reality, it looks like ENDTHEBACKLOG.org has some concrete suggestions, both for Maine (endthebacklog.org/maine), and the US as a whole. I donated; if you can, all help is welcome: give.endthebacklog.org
Learned today that SF Bicycle Coalition opposes the SF "bike chop shop" legislation. I'm v glad, and think it's the right call. sfbike.org/news/on-legisl…
SF Bicycle Coalition Bike theft makes me furious, and on-street bike chop shops are angering and depressing, but IMO the proposal goes the wrong way.
SF Bicycle Coalition I don't support "sit/lie", I don't support asset forfeiture, and I can't see a lot of daylight between those and the bike chop shop law.
SF Bicycle Coalition US policing has horrific escalation/violence issue; pushing discretionary intervention when no crime/danger is evident is big part of that.
SF Bicycle Coalition Pro bike thieves don't operate in the open; warrantless police searches of homeless ppl & impounding things doesn't touch the base problem.
