The curious thing here....they talk of legalized prostitution and legalized drugs in San Fran...until you explain to the local guy that the hookers and dealers will be in his neighborhood...a block away from his house. Then the local gets kinda freaked out.
These folks want taboo approved and within reach....until they realize just what it means.
Back when I lived in San Francisco, in a nice residential neighborhood in Oceanside, the pot dealer one flight up and the hooker across the hall were always within reach (not that I was reaching that way). Those activities were illegal, but that does not mean they were not there.
