Original Note:
Not all threats constitute a crime under California law and open carry of a machete is legal. SF in particular discourages officers from responding to 911 calls involving homeless people, instead opting to “deploy alternative responses” when possible. https://www.kron4.com/news/bay-area/san-francisco-police-defend-how-officers-arrest-unsheltered-residents/amp/ https://codes.findlaw.com/ca/penal-code/pen-sect-422/ https://www.shouselaw.com/ca/defense/knife-laws/
