San Francisco Votes for Police, Drug Tests; ‘Progressivism Is Out
Breitbart ^ | 03/06/2024 | JOEL B. POLLAK

3:07 Voters in San Francisco passed ballot measures on Super Tuesday that expanded police powers, required drug screening for welfare recipients, and reduced restrictions on commercial real estate development — a massive defeat for the left.

The San Francisco Chronicle declared boldly in its front-page headline Wednesday morning: “PROGRESSIVISM IS OUT — FOR NOW,” and “Voters make it clear: San Francisco can no longer be called a progressive city.”

It reported:

For now, at least, San Francisco can no longer be called a progressive city.

Not after voters approved ballot measures Tuesday to loosen restrictions on the police and screen welfare recipients for drugs, while a measure to boost developers was leading and likely to pass.

“PROGRESSIVISM IS OUT — FOR NOW”

**********

For now = a very short time.

SF will quickly revert right back to its normal state of insanity.

“San Francisco can no longer be called a progressive city.”

Right. Are they going to sweep all the bums out once and for all. Keep people in jail? Abandon “reparations” talk and efforts? Double the police force?

Trump beat Haley in SF. SF Republicans now favor MAGA over uniparty establishment RINOs.

Leftys are morons. They literally need someone to rob and shit in their house to vote for normalcy and decency.

Does Progressivism mean you’re in favor of high crime rates? Sounds like there is a correlation there.

How can having many of your cities citizens whacked out on drugs and alcohol to the extents they can no longer care for themselves, hold a job, be productive members of the society be called “progressive”?

It only take a minute and 1 functioning brain cell to realize that many on the left are actively seeking the destruction of this country.

Yes. 130 years ago, “progressive” meant passing child labor laws, 40 hour workweeks, ending chronic alcoholism, controlling huge monopoly corporations, and eliminating sweatshop conditions where you were virtually a slave.

Today “progressive” means teaching children homosexual sex, urging kids to “transition” and not tell parents, unimpeded flow of drugs, tens of thousands of whacked-out crazies on the streets, letting somebody be arrested 50 times and not spend a minute in jail, and not charging criminals with crimes.

As you say, this “progressive” agenda is all about destroying the country.

It really needs to be rebranded as “regressive” to, say, 3,000 years ago. Nah, it’s probably far worse than what existed 3,000 years ago. Has ANY society in the world EVER permitted and outright encouraged such lawlessness, depravity and licentiousness?
