Not only refugees, but the SF citizens who voted/vote for SF to be a shithole.SFGbob said:
I can't even imagine being in some kind of 3rd World shithole and then being dumped into the Tenderloin.

As always, most of the people who voted for SF to be a 3rd World shit hole, don't live anywhere near the Loin. But that being said, there are enough leftwing idiots here who think that crime and open air drug markets and human shit on the sidewalk are all just part of the urban experience that we just need to accept. The only alternative is to put people in jail and we all know that is racist.

There’s a case to be made for decriminalization, but it involves getting serious about mandator rehab and treatment for mental illness — not just leaving sick people out on the street to “self-medicate” themselves to death.
But that’s what passes for progressive compassion. -
Just then, a woman in a wheelchair approached, yelling incoherently and spouting Islamophobic statements about the girl’s hijab, according to the girl and police. Raghad, still learning English, only caught portions of the diatribe, but heard three words very clearly: “Are you scared?”
“After that, she came close to me, and she hit me,” the girl told me a few months later. “She punched me in the head. I felt dizzy after that. I couldn’t believe it.”
dang
Ahmed witnessed the attack and rushed to help. A security guard called 911. Police responded and arrested the woman on suspicion of committing assault, child endangerment and a hate crime.
thank god the attacker was arrested, maybe SF is tough on hate crime?
she’s seen the suspect several times since the attack despite a protective order to stay away.
lmao, nooooooooooooope -
My working theory is all the coastal tech workers know they're overpaid slackers, so they vote to help the less fortunates, without reading the voters guide or understanding anything outside the realm of their latest gaming obsession.
Since a lot of techies are social retards, eunuchs and cucks, they take their news from their fat girlfriends and vote accordingly. Rational humans would not act in such ways. -

We need to acknowledge the obvious: Some people can take drugs without fucking up their lives and burdening society. But too many can't, and they are, and will continue to be, drags on society who consume far too many resources because of their inabilities to handle or manage their addictions. You can appropriately call the war on drugs a failure. But you cannot point to any successes, either.
Read San Fransicko or shit, take a day trip to Vancouver BC to see the proof, first-hand. -
People will never stop getting messed up on drugs. They damage can only be contained. Not only did the war on drugs failed, it made things worse.

Decriminalizing drugs isn't a good play. Making them easier to get just makes more addicts. Some drugs are so highly addictive one use makes addicts. Addicts are not something we need more of. Almost everything you see when looking at the homeless is caused by three things: mental problems, drugs or alcohol.
