What did he think it was going to be another Woodstock?
Mayor Jenny is dumb as a box of hair.
This is NOTHING like “Hashbury” in San Francisco.
Hunter S. Thompson labeled the district “Hashbury” in The New York Times Magazine, and the activities in the area were reported almost daily. The Haight-Ashbury district was sought out by hippies to constitute a community based upon counterculture ideals, drugs, and music.
The Capital Hill Oppression Park (CHOP) is the antithesis of what “Hashbury” was in the 1960’s. No ideals, and not inclined to be mellow in the least.
Woodstock was way way overrated.....the filth, drugs, and rapes were never hardly mentioned....but I lived 30 miles from there then and our neighbor was a state police officer who was there every day.....he said it was a hell hole.
