My first view of Haight last August. On one hand you have a stenchhippie next to a tattoo shop, too lazy to stand and bum, and on the other hand, a nice looking couple walking by hand in hand.
Are they so bitter that they cling to their angry emails and sit-ins? Why, don’t they know this is the season of Change???
History repeats itself. Saw part of a PBS special on H-A that showed the Hippies taking over from the folks that had lived there and pushing them out, now the same thing is being done to those aging hippies.
Don’t these people care about GLOBAL WARMING? They expect folks to DRIVE far away to get their groceries rather than have a store in the neighborhood, just so they can keep their charming bum, er hippie/drug culture alive? SAVE MOTHER EARTH!!!!
So, because some hippies hung out there 40 years ago, the current hippies don’t want a food store to open there?
Makes sense.
Smith, do I recall the right park entrance......is this the corner that already has a McDonalds??
LOL
As if...
Why are they being so conservative about this issue.
I thought they were Liberals, pressing for change on all fronts; but here they are trying to keep things just like they were 40 years ago.
They’re just a bunch of ol’ fuddy-duddies.
’ “It’s not wealthy people,” Goldman said. “It’s young people with their first kids. They both work, and they can barely afford the place they bought.” ‘
If this is the case they need a Vons, not the very expensive and very limited Whole Foods. Actually, I’d love to see the hippies go nuts over a proposed WalMart in that spot.
One generation has the World War II memorial as a gathering spot. The next one has Haight-Ashbury. Enough said.
