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.

From the article:

"Based on the findings of the Investigative Unit survey, Riley believes parts of the city may be even dirtier than slums in some developing countries.

“The contamination is … much greater than communities in Brazil or Kenya or India,” he said."

This is what decade upon decade of liberalism has brought San Francisco - slum conditions far worse than that in the Third World. I've had to walk through the South of Market area of SF several times in the last year, and can confirm what the article says - the conditions are as bad or worse than the areas of China or India I've been to.

Lots of poo and pee.

At first you just see nice restaurants and great architecture.

Later you see the poo and pee more and more.

And fags.

And bums.

I believe our President is purported to have a perfect one word description of such a city.

They have a poop map so you can stay away from those areas.

This is what liberalism unchecked does to a city. It is spiraling into a third world sh!thole.

Spent a week in San Diego recently. I wasn’t even downtown and I swear every other person I saw on the street was a homeless/bum

I'd have to say it passed Third World Sh!thole status a while back and is now plumbing new depths. As the article says, most slums in the Third World are better.

Yup, my son stepped in human fecal matter upon leaving the show Hamilton in the theater district. The theater district is a frikkin’ ghetto, filthy streets, filthy people laying in the middle of the sidewalks, stinks to high heaven -definitely not a sanctuary for people dropping 100’s of dollars to support those theaters/actors and ancillary businesses. A church tried to keep the “homeless” from pi$$ing on their church from the 1800’s....all He!! broke loose about how the church had no compassion.

Um, let’s see... a hole of some sort? I think that’s what it is.

Famous SF Columnist Herb Caen used to call it “Baghdad by the Bay.” Today, it sounds like SF is much worse than Baghdad. What a cesspool my favorite city has become. When I moved there in ‘73, it was such a great place and the only part of the city that was (literally) crappy was the Tenderloin. Now it is in every neighborhood.

Decades and decades of progressive democrat leadership does this to city after city after city. Don’t voters EVER notice cause and effect? Why are voters so damned stupid?

The Shitty, formerly known as The City, is both disgustingly filthy and downright dangerous. (Tourists, take note!)

“Unacceptable. Absolutely unacceptable,” said Supervisor Hillary Ronen. “We're losing tourists. We're losing conventions in San Francisco. All of this is happening because we aren't addressing the root cause, which is we need more temporary beds for street homelessness.”

Ehhhhh... that's not the root cause, Ronen.

But don't worry, she has a plan:

“We need to find a source of revenue,” said Ronen. “Whether that's putting something on the ballot to raise business taxes or taking a look at our general fund and re-allocating money towards that purpose and taking it away from something else in the city.”

Because throwing money at the problem has worked so BRILLIANTLY before. /s

The smell is what hits you. Step out of a hotel first thing in the morning and you have to step right back in; urine, feces perspiration — all at once. Last time I was there was ten years ago and I’ll never go back (and I live two hours away).

It’s hard to be erudite when you’re standing in someone’s pile of Shiff.

Actually its by design. The Left wants a huge dependent underclass to look up at them for adoration and needs. I bet SF has a section that the bums arent allowed to go in. It’s only for the elites.

“San Francisco is a Democrat s**thole.”

Yes, but it was not always so. It was the place of my birth in 1940, and what has happened to it should be a wakeup call to everyone in this country as to what will happen to the place where you live if you do not deal with Liberals before they get a toehold. East Coast Liberals, queers, you name it, all descended on California, because it was “such a nice place to live.”
I just found out recently that Adam “Schitty” Schiff, grew up here in Danville (”migrating” with his parents from Framingham, MA) and actually graduated from our Monte Vista High School. I just imagine that they’re still trying to get the stink he left out of the place! Even in CA, his “politics” wouldn’t work here.
