Supervisor @Ahsha_Safai also banned new dispensaries when existing dispensaries in his District 11 asked him to block competition, effectively forming a cartel:

incredible, this entire article hinges on editor @AlexShultz being upset that a reporter quoted the mother of a toddler shot to death who is distraught bc the DA is trying to remove gun charges
“how dare these reporters report when it inconveniences my ideology!” 🤡
Wildly condescending for @AlexShultz to scoff at constituents for protesting the DA saying she wants leniency for the toddler’s shooter
Editor @AlexShultz: “it’s not my place to weigh in on how the parents feel”
Also Alex: “the parents are only expressing grief bc they were tricked by a reporter! They would never do so otherwise! They should shut up!”

This combo removes the arbitrary power of politicians like @DeanPreston from blocking new housing bc it lowers their own property values or bc they don’t like the color or whatever.
