The book's author was recently on Joe Rogan where they discussed the book and many of the policies in SF.

They discussed: de-criminalization, the "Portugal approach", progressive policies, policing, etc. Also the use of language such as "homeless camps" which envisages a camp of homeless people just trying to live. Versus the reality which when social workers and mayors (mayor of Denver) went into these camps undercover only found that everyone was a drug abuser and were being enabled to self-destruct.

Highly recommended, the author is a resident of "San Fransicko".
