 Is voting this guy out the only way Asians are gonna feel safe in San Francisco? Welcome everybody to the Hot Pop Boys, a new poll shows that Asian Americans are leading the charge in recalling San Francisco's controversial District Attorney Chesa Boudin after feeling like his softness on crime has not done anything and only led to multiple Asian deaths and an actual increase in crime overall. I mean I've been following this for a year. I mean we're talking about the stories of Vicha Ratapapaki, Hanako Abe, Kelvin Chu, the list goes on and on. Basically these Asians were all killed by people who should have been in jail. But obviously Chesa Boudin as a hyper-liberal DA, he's very soft on crime. He likes to give people second, third chances, hug him, he let him out. Yeah guys in this video we're going to talk about why so many people hate him right now. What this means for Asians who used to vote left and maybe now are feeling left behind by the left. But also how this can be inspiring for a lot of different Asian groups around the country. Let's get into it. Real quickly if we can, which it's tough, talk about why so many people are mad at him right now. Well basically he's got to be probably the most radical DA that America's ever seen. I mean I understand he got elected under like a very certain moment in time in this country. But basically Chesa Boudin Andrew was raised by like hyper radical people. His parents were in jail for like a robbery that where people ended up getting killed or whatever. So he really has this like hyper like 20 out of 10 restorative justice type like attitude. But he actually was a public defendant. Now he's the DA which is supposed to be the lead prosecutor in the system of the city. He's supposed to be a hard ass. So basically obviously theoretically cases come up to him. He's got to make a read on him. Should I go soft on it? Should I go moderate? Or should I throw the book at this criminal and give him the maximum sentence? Andrew he's been going soft and ultra soft. Now that means the criminals get second third chances. They don't get long sentences. They get to go in and they get to go out. Some of those criminals to be hyper fair go get their life on track right or do okay. But some of them come right back out and do way more crimes. And some of them come out and kill Asian people. And it seems like he does not give a if they come out and kill an Asian. So as long as maybe one person helped turn their life around. Yeah. Because he's sticking to his guns. He's like well probably in his mind actually not this is not what he says to the public obviously guys because he's very like PR centric. He's he probably in his mind he's like well yeah I mean some of the Asians are dying but uh I'm like I believe in what I believe in long term this is the right way and plus it's just an Asian. I mean I literally think that is it. No he probably thinks like well some Asians are going to get picked on and and killed anyway. So you know it's just just part of the growing pains in the process. And that is why Asians are particularly leading the charge against him to get him ousted from his position. And I'll tell you clearly he doesn't care about the downside of his policies directly impacting Asians. And this is a big deal that Asians are being political because usually Asians are not political and by the way the district attorney is a very specific like position. It's not like president of the United States where any like non educated person can just be involved in it. It's like well this is very specific. You got to really want this guy out. So that's why it is cool that Asians are leading the charge. I think it's important. I also think it's very very interesting David that the latest high profile case that Chesa Boudin has caught somebody in has caught the criminal is an Asian guy who is involved in some car burglary rings involving a quickly boba shop. And we're not defending this guy because we understand if you do bad things then you got to go to jail. No send him to jail. Send this Asian guy to jail. I don't care that he's Asian. But it's funny that it was a quick lease to be fair because that's like you know the crummy is boba. Yeah. But it's also ironic that Chesa Boudin doesn't care if Asian people die and then the only person that he caught recently was an Asian guy. Yeah that's his marquee like kingpin that he caught now with somebody stealing MacBooks out of the trunks. Listen good job Chesa. Great. Can you go catch the people who are terrorizing Asian people on the street now. But he doesn't care to be honest. I did a lot of research guys. I've read things in the middle. I've read things supporting Chesa Boudin. I've read obviously a lot of pieces against him. I've read a ton of internet comments ones that are upvoted downvoted. Literally I will say this Andrew I read a Stanford law professor that was like kind of defending him going well he is just doing exactly what he said he was going to do. It would be like almost he's almost like the inverse Trump like if Trump really would have got the wall done like right when he got elected like believe I'm not really that conservative where I'm like oh these ideas suck. I'm like yo the restorative justice decarceration it sounds really good but obviously how it's implemented and like generally how you're going to execute it very very hard. There's the theory and then there's IRL yeah maybe it might work for a smaller city but maybe not one of the top five biggest cities in America anyways guys I'm gonna let's let's talk about what this means for Asians who feel left behind by the ultra left you know they probably voted him in obviously now regretting it a lot of people are regretting it now even like the liberal non-Asians right so so so what now what do Asians do how do they vote? Well I do think that in the upcoming elections Asians will be way more careful about who they vote for and obviously I do think that a lot of Asians are feeling abandoned by like the hyper progressive liberal left or whatever you want to call them I don't even know exactly what it is but it's just gotten way like Asians generally like life like kind of in a moderate zone like if they go right they're not too right if they go left they don't go to left that's Asian culture but wherever SF is at is like outside of this safe zone it's beep beep beep beep beep I mean people there just want to be safe and what's wrong with wanting to be safe that's not that's actually good for everybody I think everybody wants more or less a stable society yeah if you do something really bad repeatedly let's say 20 30 40 times you should probably be in jail so you cannot do more bad things to people or the society I think that this is pretty cool though that Asians are leading the charge because I think it could be inspiring to other Asian groups and other cities that are also unhappy with elected officials now obviously SF has a huge high Asian population mostly Chinese mostly southern Chinese mostly Cantonese right and so not every city's gonna have that population but if they can get together and really get this guy out I mean I think it'll it'll it's a good sign I mean Chinese in particular are like known for being in disarray like it is just not a very organized narrative to be honest but it was gonna work it's got to be the Bay Area because that's where a lot of the politicalized Asians are from basically Asia's got to do two things they're not doing right now number one they got to protect themselves and they got to understand that right now you have leadership in place that does not fully value you and do they not fully value because you're Asian or because you don't vote well that leads us to our second point by the way I do think some of it is just that people just think we're perpetual foreigners and we don't you know whatever whatever not part of the cool kids or whatever but part of number two is that we don't vote most Asians literally statistically do not vote unless there's an Asian candidate on the ballot which obviously makes people care less about your your opinion because they don't really go off the populace you know a lot of politicians you know it's best they don't really serve the populace they serve they uh self-interestedly serve the voting populace no they just uh just the people who vote that's why almost like a person who votes is worth five times more than any other citizen that doesn't vote that's why people play to the voters that's why we do need to vote it's true listen I know a lot of people like voting and maybe voting is very inconvenient sometimes but if you can vote this guy out listen guys there's a lot of choices in life and whether you want to I get it you know if you had a hyper conservative throw the book at everybody da then there's some bad sides of that too to be honest and then now you have one guy on the reverse side trying to make up for what he views as like this guy's wrong doings and he's over compensating over here and the system's getting ripped from here to here to here when a nice equilibrium point would still have its downsides but ultimately would do the best to mitigate the downside and nobody cares because that's where we are as a country's hyper polarized and of course Asians getting hurt and of course you know everything's politicized even down to people's safety people safety is being politicized I think safety is like pretty simple literally guys when you can't solve simple problems it's generally indicative of a lot of other bad things please let us know what you think in the comment section below we're totally okay if people don't agree with us if people think over here people think over there I read everything for this piece I did my research this one this opinion that opinion you let us know what you think in the comment section below I think they got to get rid of that guy and I get it it's more complicated it's a whole machinery it's just because you get rid of them doesn't mean all the problems are solved but either way you guys let us know in the comments down below what you think thank you for watching the hot pop boys hopefully that was uh the hot take and we got heated so you know it's hot anyways guys hit that like button and again with the hot pop boys until next time we out peace
