On Friday, San Francisco’s police officer association called out Hamasaki for disrespecting the memory of an officer who died from COVID, saying those who are "anti-vaxx" are "killing" officers.
"Hey @sfbos @SFMayorsOffice @SFPDCommission, @HamasakiLaw uses lies to disrespect the memory of a police officer who passed, applauds when officers get injured & advocates for kids to carry guns. He lacks the judgment & temperament to be a police commissioner. #GiveTheStarBack"
Hamsaki retweeted the post, ignoring the over 97 percent vaccination rate among SFPD officers at the time and said, "You really wanna come at me on this one? You failed to show leadership and get an officer vaccinated and now he is no longer with us. This is 100% on you. You wanna play little twitter games, while a guy died on your watch. Have some respect."
On Sunday, Hamasaki attacked the second amendment and legal gun owners. "Peter Thiel’s little wannabe Rittenhouse is running for AZ Senate. Stanford-educated venture capitalist playing with guns for the white nationalist movement is next level cringe."
He added, "Like, what is that supposed to convey from a 1%er? At what point in your sheltered VC life are in danger such that you need an assault rifle? Or are you out hunting the poors? Nobody is buying the act."
Also on Sunday, Hamasaki compared worshippers at Rev. John Hagee’s evangelical congregation to domestic terrorists for chanting "Let’s Go Brandon" and insinuated that they should be investigated.
He added: "Just about every domestic terror attack since 9/11 has been by white nationalists, domestic extremists, all tied to the far-right and republicans. And somehow these groups never get investigated until they attack and then everyone is like, oh no, how did little Kyle get this way?"
The police commissioner also advocated for not prosecuting crime. "It is also fair in that it acknowledges that 'painful work' is necessary to change our current system. Like, no one wants the car break-ins or any violence, but we won't solve those problems with an arrest nor overnight. We need to roll up our sleeves and solve this together."
The radical has also been retweeting Chad Loder, an Antifa activist who also targets advertisers and accuses them of running ads on "neo-Nazi" websites.
In March, San Francisco Supervisor Aaron Peskin attempted to remove Hamasaki from his position after a series of controversial social media posts he made about teens, guns and other members of the Board of Supervisors. In one of the tweets, Hamasaki argued that it was dangerous for police to seize guns from teens.
Supervisors Catherine Stefani and Ahsha Safaí also called for Hamasaki’s resignation.
She added, "Shootings have spiked over the course of the past year, killing far too many young people in our city. If you’re not up for the task of keeping all San Franciscans safe, you should step aside."
Supervisor Myrna Melgar responded after Hamasaki attempted to blame the verbiage on nuance, "Arguing that GUNS can keep teens safe is crap. F nuance."
