RIOT POLICE AT DOLORES PARK
Milk Club Slams SFPD Excessive Force on Teens

The Harvey Milk LGBTQ Democratic Club is outraged by the large scale show of force by police in military gear against teenagers at Dolores Park, which led to the arrest and mistreatment of 81 juveniles and 32 adults. The San Francisco Police Department (SFPD) response was excessive,  disproportionate, and resulted in one of the most violent police actions in recent memory involving riot gear, batons, rifles, and the drawing of guns. 

The video footage captured by Mission Local was especially disturbing, as it clearly showed police officers pointing rifles at young individuals who posed no immediate threat from the opposite side of barricades. This display highlights a clear lack of understanding and practice of de-escalation techniques within the police force.

    At a time of rising political violence, including the assassination attempt against Speaker Pelosi just weeks ago, the @sfexaminer’s decision to put a literal bullseye on @DeanPreston and run it on their front page is deeply irresponsible and contemptible.

    Harvey “ban cars” Milk! Harvey understood the necessity of reimagining our streets to prioritize people. That’s one of many reasons we’re asking you to vote #YesOnJ #NoOnI “We have to go to an amusement park for a good transportation system” — but we can create it here!

    We’re out on Castro Street today talking to voters! Let’s vote No on H by June 7 and #StopTheCon
    Chesa Boudin stands next to members of the Harvey Milk Club in front of a booth on Castro street. There are “No on H” signs surrounding the booth. One member holds a “Stand with Chesa” sign.

    100 supporters, incl #Bernie2020 #BayArea team, joined #Moms4Housing + @CalOrganize after Christmas to participate in eviction blockade + risk arrest after formerly homeless moms filed right to possession of this vacant home on 12/17. Who do you fight for? #ifightforthem

    Harvey Milk Becomes First Rank-and-File Democratic Club to Rescind Primary Endorsement of @JoeBiden

    Commissioner Ann Hsu’s racist assertion that Black and Brown families do not “focus on or value learning” is inexcusable, and she must resign. We appreciate her service, apology, and acknowledgment of her own bias and ignorance; and that bias and ignorance is disqualifying.

    A year ago today we marched, because 41 years ago today we rioted. When Dan White got away with murdering Milk and Moscone, our community took the streets in grief, anger, and power, and the White Night riot became a watershed moment. History is a riot. No apologies.
