I’ve never been to SF and it’s just as well.

I’ll stick with reruns of Ironside, McMillan and Wife, and Streets of San Francisco.

And there is plenty of fertilizer for those flowers! You may even get some in your hair.

If I weren’t so lazy, I would write a book about how government schools ruined American cities. Forced association drove the middle class out of the cities, so only the rich who could afford private schools, the childless, and the poor who can’t afford to move were left in cities.

They fouled their own nest.

Let them live (or die) in it.

“It’s unfair to just say this is a San Francisco thing,” Chiu said. “These are the same issues across the state and the nation.”

No, it’s not. People in flyover country don’t sh*t on the sidewalks and throw their dirty needles in the gutter.

Hopefully, they’ll secede before the “big one” hits ‘em.

That way, we will be under no obligation whatsoever to save their sorry liberal buttholes.

I wouldn’t go to San Fran-sicko if you gave me the city.

They rarely think of the consequences of their actions until its too late.

For example, they all thought it would be wonderful to allow people to run around naked... until they realized no one wanted to sit on a bus seat or restaurant chair AFTER someone’s naked fat butt was on it.

I never go to the city now except for work
And then I require secured parking
Now on the other hand Marin county is lovely
90pct is parks and my kids can roam the neighborhood freely
It’s all liberals ( I’m friends with the other 2 conservatives ) but I just keep my opinions to myself
Honestly. My little town of Fairfax is Mayberry ( on acid )

Here is a small list of Marin attractions ( liberals can’t screw up nature only cities )

Pt Reyes
Mt Tamalpais
GGNRA
Loma Alta ( my lair)
Seven 100000+ acre foot lakes that are always full
Mt Barnabe
Stinson beach
Sausalito
91% parkland and going up

Now houses are like 1M so I rent but it’s great great great

SF. ? Foggy. No parking. And high crime. They can keep up it

Happy New Years freepers !

Several years ago I was standing in line to buy a ticket for the cable car, near Market Street. A homeless man approached an Aussie tourist standing in line in front of me, then asked for a hand-out. The man replied;

“Not a chance, mate.”

That’s been my reply ever since.

This article solved a great mystery for me. I ride BART into SF for work, and I’ve always wondered why the escalators were so often out of service. Well, now I know, there’s so much crap in them, the gears get gummed up.

Actually, there are a lot of good things happening in Detroit, it just doesn’t get reported nationally. Midtown is growing rapidly. Long way to go still.

“I’ll bet even retired Detective Harry Callahan has moved on”

Yep, he packed up his Grand Torino and headed East for Detroit;)

A friend was recently in S.F. for business, and had her car broken into in broad daylight. The scum bag used a hammer to bash open the front, passenger window and stole my friend’s computer and purse. (Yeah, stupid to leave those kinds of valuables in view.) The car was parked in front of a busy restaurant at the time, with dozens of customers seated outside, several feet away. Cops showed up, and refused to file a report - literally said “No” when my friend asked if they wanted her info, what was stolen, etc. My guess was that was one little way to fudge the real crime rate in that feces-smeared hell hole. No report = No crime. Leftwing magic!

I’m confused. Why are they reporting this now?
This stuff can’t possibly happen until after Jan. 20.

Just one more cesspool of liberal politics.
