doctors convention, which brings in $40 million in spending over 5 days decides SF is no longer a safe place to have a convention...

[Morpheus2009]

Forget safe. I think there are sanitation concerns as well.

I can’t think of a place that has a bigger incentive to keep attendees chaste.

[MrEdd]

This place stinks.

But wait a minute. Where’s the diversity and tolerance at over those less fortunate?

If the city hires people to go out and measure the shirt on the sidewalks, then that city is a shirthole.

what’s interesting is that the communistic leftwing D’s have created a HELLhole for the City (”Shitty” is now the common term for San Fransicko).

A stinking hell-hole for residents, visitors AND THE SOCALLED “Street People”... all alike.

This may catch on as word spreads to other groups as they consider alternative places to hold their usual get togethers.

This will not end well for San FRancisco!

At some point in time, reason, logic and common sense MUST prevail! The end result will not be pretty!

I went to a convention in San Freako in 1996. It was a dangerous place even then. The convention center was next door to crack houses and heroin dens.

I haven’t been there in a while but have heard that once beautiful Union Square has been overrun.

hmmmmm.....

I wonder if Joe D’Alessandro is any relation to Nancy D’Alesandro Pelosi. I know that they spell their birth surname differently.

Maybe she is an embarrassment to him.

[Gritty]

They probably plan to hold their convention in a safer and more sanitary place.

Calcutta comes to mind.

When a possible move to Baltimore or Chicago was brought up, the Doctors preferred Vegas or Aruba.

In 1972 the albacore boat I was working on spent a few weeks in SF for engine repairs and we had a great time. Plenty of hippies around but it was pretty clean in general - great food, loose women, all a 20 year old could ask for. I could have purchased a houseboat in Sausalito for $5K.
The idiots running that city should be strung up for what's been allowed to happen.

[Vendome]

I guess I hadn’t gotten out of my car much over the last 15 years but, I’ve had two appointments in the city recently and gotta say it was an awful experience.

SFO needs to borrow the Guliani book and clean this crap up.

...

They’ll need to raise taxes to make up for it.

[technically right]

What you mean that the good doctors don’t relish walking over puddles if p*ss and piles of sh*t to get to their $350 a night hotel room. Evidently a bunch of unsophisticates from fly-over country.
