The wealthy San Francisco residents who launched a crowdfunding campaign to block construction of a new homeless shelter in their waterfront neighborhood are employing a new tactic: arguing that homeless people are bad for the environment.
In a lawsuit filed against the city of San Francisco and the California State Lands Commission, the residents called for the project to undergo an environmental review before breaking ground.

Let’s face it. Most “progressives” would gladly sacrifice a sizable number of human beings if it meant they can continue their lifestyle of fresh air bicycling and virtue signaling.
Homeless people cause Global Warming.
All that poop on the street, dontcha know.
They dictate and conspire to overwhelm the common man with the unwashed, unwanted savages of the third world while they themselves continue to live in safety and comfort in their mansions and on their yachts.
Meanwhile, we have no one, absolutely no one who is trying to protect us.
😂
With the continued influx of hundreds of thousands of illegals - I don’t see how California’s economy or environmental systems survive under the load.
So Nancy doesn’t want the hoi polloi on her lawn in Pacific Heights?
Tres gauche!
This is Awesome..

Pelosi is a racist
Homeless people CAUSE global warming..
Just keep alienating EVERYONE!!
Picture “ the big one” disrupting the water supply of SoCal for a couple of months. Coupled with EBTs going down, I think we’d see a true picture of just who lives there.
The utter hypocrisy of the elite Left. It is so predictable.
Maybe the elites would just like to “remove” them???
Tell them homeless people are responsible for climate change. They’ll crack down asap.
This is Awesome..

In their neighborhood, ha ha. So sorry.
We need an EIR on federal immigration and asylum policy. What’s the carbon footprint of an illegal alien living in the US versus the same person staying home in Central America or wherever?
“They dictate and conspire to overwhelm the common man with the unwashed, unwanted savages of the third world while they themselves continue to live in safety and comfort in their mansions and on their yachts.”
Very true. And they, collaborating with each other, hold down the entire population beneath them. That’s socialism, isn’t it?
A hint: It's a saga that features Harvard's elite,little black school kids and a neighborhood petition which was signed by Laurence Tribe and Julia Child (among others).
If it wasn't so nauseating it would be comical.
Does a bear Shiite in tiger’s woods?
Is the pipe catholic?
