Complete Headline: San Francisco board rebrands 'convicted felon' as 'justice-involved person,' sanitizes other crime lingo
Crime-ridden San Francisco has introduced new sanitized language for criminals, getting rid of words such as "offender" and "addict" while changing "convicted felon" to "justice-involved person."
[Snip]
The local officials say the new language will help change people's views about those who commit crimes.
[Snip]
[F]rom now on a convicted felon or an offender released from custody will be known as a "formerly incarcerated person," or a "justice-involved" person or just a "returning resident."
A juvenile "delinquent" will now be called a "young person with justice system involvement," or a "young person impacted by the juvenile justice system."
And drug addicts or substance abusers, meanwhile, will become "a person with a history of substance use."

From now on, San Fran-sick-o Libtards would appreciate it if you Right Wing Freeper Nuts would stop referring to this nice formerly incarcerated justice-involved person with a history of substance use impacted by the juvenile justice system as a criminal !!
Oh my, out-Orwelling Orwell himself I see.
LOL
I think men who batter women should be referred to as “Impulse control sufferers”.
Yeah that’s sick. Just as sick as this nonsense.
Newspeak for brain dead idiots.
Former dirtbags will now be called bags of dirt.
JIP?
lol
I wonder what they will shock me with tomorrow, the insane left.
Pedophiles will be labeled “Age challenged people who are addicted to sex”
Amazing that even while swimming in feces, dirty needles and homeless they continue to protect those who will do them harm as well. THIS IS TRULEY MENTALLY ILL there could be no other explanation
Just say no to SF insanity. We will not be reprogrammed.
I must have missed the ‘/satire’?
Bags of earth or erf.
While my expungement hasn't really worked, I am now EXONERATED by the lefties in SF.
I knew if I lived long enough, I'd be re-rated as one of the good guys.
Eventually, euphemisms become as noxious as the things they were meant to euphemize.
Lefties have read all kinds of commie screeds and are now in a position of power to enact all their theoretical claptrap.
They realized a long time ago that their ideas go against history and common sense. So their solution: change history and common sense to fit their worldview.
You must use the proper pronoun as someone rapes or murders you.
Then they'll get an idea of what its like to be in Sweden now that it's been declared to be the rape capital of Europe.
A rose by any other name .... Changing the name is only a temporary thing. How long before people associate the new label with the same bad old crimes. Whatever the moniker, they are still guilty of serious crimes and a risk.
Now referred to as Sidewalk Muffins
Bank robbery will now be called an “undocumented withdrawal.”
