Some community members want more officers and oppose CART. Leanna Louie, who has led citizen patrols in Chinatown during the pandemic, rallied on City Hall steps last week with a couple dozen others to support police funding. Louie said she doesn’t know anyone who calls the police simply when someone is homeless, but only when someone is “loud” or “violent.” “When that happens ... you need the police,” Louie said. “We are already at bare bones. You cannot keep cutting them.”
