San Francisco's mayor has an idea to stop the homeless pooping in the street: ask them to stop - or to at least clean up. She blames charities for San-Fran’s poo-gate, saying they should teach people to “respect the community”.
The city is in crisis - vagrants brazenly use drugs on the streets and trash is strewn across footpaths and roads… but watch where you step, as you could also find yourself ankle-deep in human poop. After reports showed that complaints about human feces have doubled in the last three years, the newly-minted mayor, London Breed, pledged to tackle the issue head on - by simply asking the homeless to take more pride in their community.(snip)
Breed, who was only just inaugurated as San Francisco’s mayor last Wednesday, took aim at anti-homeless charities and advocacy groups that receive money from the city, arguing that they do not do enough for those on the streets.
“I work hard to make sure your programs are funded for the purposes of trying to get these individuals help, and what I am asking you to do is work with your clients and ask them to at least have respect for the community — at least, clean up after themselves and show respect to one another and people in the neighborhood,” Breed said.
San Francisco spent $275 million on homelessness services and resources in the last fiscal year - with spending projected to reach an eye watering $305 million in the next 12 months.
The new mayor denied that there would be harsher penalties for vagrants caught using the footpath as a toilet - but did pledge that San Francisco would have visibly cleaner streets within the first three months of her administration. She did not disclose how she would achieve that goal.

It sucked in 1973, when that show was on.
California may be getting ready to elect a former nutbag SF mayor as governor. They already have one as a senator.
London broil.....mmmmmmmm
Can somebody contact the moron Bookie in Ireland and ask him for a line on whether Einstein will get the homeless to stop shiiting on the street within 6 months.
Don’t feed them and they won’t crap.
Thank Sacha Baron for making that cool in Borat
Yeah, who are they telling not to poop? Illegals? Bwahaha idiots
If the alternative is to use a San Francisco public restroom, it’s reasonable to prefer the sidewalk.
Maybe he’ll ask them to get a job and quit drugs while he’s at it. There. That was easy.
