New San Francisco Initiative to Pay Individuals Not to Shoot Others
A new program in San Fransisco will pay people at high risk of shooting someone not to pull the trigger to help alleviate rising gun violence in the city.
The Dream Keeper Fellowship is set to launch in October and pay 10 individuals $300 each month to not be involved in shootings, Sheryl Davis, executive director of the Human Rights Commission, told Newsweek in an interview Tuesday.
Davis explained that the program is not “transactional,” but will rather focus on making investments in communities most impacted by violence.
“It’s not necessarily as cut and dry as folks may think. It’s not as transactional as, ‘Here’s a few dollars so that you don’t do something bad,’ but it really is about how you help us improve public safety in the neighborhood,” she said.

The good part is, now that they are paying criminals maybe some of ours will move there.
The bad thing is with Texas' new abortion law all our sluts might move there too.
LOL
That was awesome. You're on fire.
