I see two things wrong with that statement: 1: the obvious attempt whip up racism/xenophobia, and 2:

Score means 20. Scores to me mean at least 40 (more than one score). Is the writer implying that there are at least 40 drug dealers in a tiny dead-end street [0]?

In the article linked by this one about the sanctuary policy, The DA defends not prosecuting drug crimes by claiming it's a way to deport offenders. It seems he and he author are of a similar mind on who police are arresting.

As I've said elsewhere, why do you think that statement was talking about just that street? It's totally reasonable to think there's at least 40 drug dealers in the whole Tenderloin.

And that they're all from Mexico/Central America right?
