Diseased Streets (Of San Francisco)
NBC Bay Area ^ | Feb 18, 2018 | Bigad Shaban, Robert Campos, Tony Rutanooshedech, and Michael Horn

Posted on 02/19/2018 7:23:08 PM PST by AnotherUnixGeek

An NBC Bay Area Investigation reveals a dangerous concoction of drug needles, garbage, and feces lining the streets of downtown San Francisco. The Investigative Unit surveyed more than 150 blocks, including some of the city’s top tourist destinations, and discovered conditions that are now being compared to some of the worst slums in the world.

Even if they want to tolerate the people doing that, one gets an image of great fire hoses pumped with ocean water and used nightly to hose everything down.

Last year SD had 149 deaths by hep C. Now three days a week they power spray and disinfect some streets at a lot of money per month.

Let’s declare San Francisco an “Unsanitary City” and post travelers warnings that they will need shots before they go there.

Wouldn’t that be a hoot to see!

Might even help them promote a part of the city as the “Bunghole by the Bay”.

And I thought the persistent yellow smog I saw their in the early 70’s was bad.

Similar in Los Angeles (my home town — I now live in NYC, which is also similar).

I asked my brother, who still lives in LA, if downtown is as bad as they say, and he said, “It’s like something out of THE LIVING DEAD.”

All of this is happening because we aren't addressing the root cause, which is we need more temporary beds for street homelessness.

The more money you spend on something, the more of it you'll have.

Do more services for the homeless decrease the numbers of homeless...or increase the number of homeless in a city?

As liberals foist homosexualism, godlessness, and drug culture upon the entire United States, we need look no further than San Francisco to catch a glimpse of the "utopia" they dream of for us all.

I bet SF has a section that the bums arent allowed to go in. It’s only for the elites.

Well, I mean, they’re beautiful and wonderful people with wonderful intentions and they know better than the lowly serfs.

They need a place to relax feel safe.

San FranSh*thole

Is anybody surprised at these revelations? Anybody?

Cities like SF, Detroit, Oakland, Baltimore, Chicago, yada, yada, yada, have been controlled and governed by the liberals for decades.

They take something nice and trash the hale out of it so it's broke, dysfunctional and not recommended for human habitation.

They run these cities. Run them into the ground.

It is like taking a beautiful blond model and turning her into a pocked-marked, sullen, shallow-faced, sickly drug addict from years of sticking a needle in her arms.

The liberal democRATS are the meth and crack cocaine of American politics.

Reason number 709 and counting why I stay away from Cali and offer sympathy to any Freeper trapped there.

Pretty much how it was in the 80s when I saw it, with less crap and piss. LOTS of available women when our ship pulled in but you had to deflect lots of faggotous advances.

“San Francisco is a Democrat s**thole.”
Yes, but it was not always so.

Indeed, it wasn't.

A huge champion of the poor, Nancy Pelosi’s $22 million Napa home boasts tennis courts and a Bocci ball court. She is lucky enough to also have a helicopter landing pad.

Being poor is GREAT! Just not for Nancy...

A political creation of unions, she employs ZERO union people at her vineyard and at her luxurious bed & breakfast, Auberge de Soleil, where a buger and fries will set you back $22 before tax and tip.

The same is true of the 16-branch, upscale restaurant chain Pelosi partners in, Piatti, located in 5 states in the USA, shown below. Of the nearly 1,0000 employees working there, ZERO are members of a union.

Employing union people is FANTASTIC..!!! Just not for Nancy.

Must be nice, huh?

Let’s take a look at a different branch of Piatti, the photo below shows their branch nestled in La Jolla:

Pelosi also played a critical role in exempting American Samoa, where 80% of the island works for Starkist Tuna, from a mandatory minimum wage hike, from $5.35 per hour. Advocate For The Poor Pelosi is a major Starkist shareholder, you see.

Bad working conditions, and $5.35 each hour. Sorry Charlie..!

In a single year the bar tab for Pelosi’s huge government plane exceeded $100,000 —one time she diverted it over 1,000 miles in order to pick up a single order of chocolate-dipped strawberries.

In Feb 2018 Chris Matthews claimed the GOP's strategy to maintain its congressional majority was to relentlessly attack Nancy "because she is an ethnic sort of person".

Behold the highly ethnic, hard-scrabble Pelosi clan below, decked out in gangsta finery in South Central Napa Valley:

I couldn’t live in or even near that filth.

Many years ago (decades), I visited California. I loved the look of San Francisco. I have seen much of the state. The buildings were beautiful or at least interesting. The landscaping was also very nice. I loved the warm ocean and beautiful beaches and beautiful countryside, even the deserts. I hated the rude and reckless drivers. The smog in and around L.A. was horrible.

Today, I couldn’t be paid enough to visit that dead state.

I worry for the conservatives in that state. The lib leadership has destroyed it and I doubt the good folks will ever be able to turn it around.

We were at the Grant Hotel in the Gaslamp District of San Diego about 10 years ago for a corporate event. The homeless had taken over the pocket park nearby in this very nice tourist district. It was not pleasant.

I had doubts about that map, but it is legit.

https://www.citylab.com/design/2014/11/so-youve-decided-to-map-sidewalk-poop-in-san-franciscso/382975/

A long time ago, I enjoyed taking nighttime walks in some of those brown zones.
