Michelle Tandler, a San Francisco native and high-tech entrepreneur......

Is Michelle Tandler and her cohorts willing to step up and reveal who they voted for? And if/when they do, will they explain, in detail, why?

I’d be really curious to know.

Sure, there’s some inevitable outcomes from the policies that were enacted concerning crime. And the intelligent, informed democrats who overwhelmingly supported these policies with their vote will take great comfort this holiday season knowing that the poor criminals in their city will have a prosperous and joyous Christmas.

I guarantee that she and her pals, if they voted for DA, voted for Chesa because he’s so progressive and was going to pump social justice into the system.

As is the norm, I don’t care about the stores. I don’t care about the employees. I don’t care about Michelle Tander, one single bit.

What I do care about is the folks that voted for this nonsense, who have the money to move, move someplace else and destroy that place because at the end of the day, they’re all too stupid and arrogant to acknowledge that they’re the reason for all of this.

The law in SF now stipulates that one can loot on site.

How the mayor of San Francisco handled looting in 1906...

http://sfmuseum.org/press/clips20.html

“Let it be given out,” said the Mayor sternly, “that three men have already been shot down without mercy for looting.

Let it also be understood that the order has been given to all soldiers and policemen to do likewise without hesitation in the cases of any and all miscreants who may seek to take advantage of the city’s awful misfortune.

I will ask the Chief of Police and the representatives of the Federal military authorities here present if I do not echo their sentiments in this?”

Add that to the urine and feces soaked streets, the garbage and the tents pitched by the homeless in front of businesses and people’s homes.

They got their wishes granted.

“Upscale” in San Francisco is less than one human turd per block.

In 69 I was heading out (through Travis AFB) overseas (not far from SF). Had a whole weekend there. St. Francis Hotel, Haight-Ashbury Streets...... hippies galore.

Shot pool in a downtown pool hall, drank, caroused, went to some Go-go dancer bars... not one problem except for a smelly hippie (or a dozen).

Thinking back on it, I bet those wine snifter, fart-smelling liberals there now would take all that in a heartbeat over what they have now.

turned Union Square ... into an area resembling a blighted neighborhood in Detroit

Turned? More like, 'completed turning,' with its block-sized homeless park smack in the center, which has always been there.

LOL. It's been awhile since I last saw that turn of phrase. Or it's cousin, not burnt in a day.

Global elites will probably buy properties at distressed prices and the bring back law and order when they own it.

“The people of San Francisco have sent a powerful and clear message,” Boudin said in a statement. “It’s time for radical change to how we envision justice. I’m humbled to be a part of this movement that is unwavering in its demand for transformation.”’

***********************************************************

Chesa himself nailed it with the above statement. Meaning, he is DEAD ON RIGHT !! The people of San Francisco put this Soro’s bastard in office because Chesa’s looting is ok policies are what they want!

The Hollywood Creeps and Silicon Valley billionaire’s can just get on their jet and fly to Dallas to go shopping!
