  1. They most certainly are.

  2.  @jholeify  Indeed, the Supreme Court has ruled that cops don't have to protect anyone. However, I should point out that overall crime is not increasing, but there's been an uptick in violence during the pandemic.

  3. There's other video from this same incident, showing a Proud Boy challenging someone to fight one-on-one in the middle of the street. Someone accepts the challenge, and said Proud Boy promptly gets knocked to the ground.

  5.  @saltyandgreen  A sizable minority of homeless people have jobs.

  6.  @panamafernandez4641  Not to mention the infuriating problem of NIMBYism. On top of that, homeless people drift to CA due to the weather, and other states are known to bus their homeless there.

  8. Good point.

  9.  @Bass_attack7755  That really, really depends. This is why there are organizations that rate charities, and it's why 501(c)3 entities have to make all of their finances transparent.

  12. Not to mention the NIMBYs.

  13. ​ @cowboyx9380  Not so. The curfews often make it impossible for homeless people to get jobs or keep the jobs they already have (a sizable minority of homeless people have jobs).

  15. Yes, that's what happened. You are observant.

  16. A Proud Boy did the stabbing.

  17.  @danevertt3210  That's been true for a while. Having faced some of them in the streets, I would know.

  18.  @MrJuvefrank  NIMBYism.

  19.  @mipadill9234  What would Republicans do about it?

  21. Asking for asylum is completely legal.

  22. No, that's not what "literally" means. It's not an independent country, for one thing.

  31. They aren't giving apartments to undocumented people. Asking for asylum is legal.

  32.  @Kaeroyal  That's Randroid nonsense.

  33. The government isn't giving apartments to undocumented people. If you're thinking about asylum seekers, there's nothing illegal about requesting asylum.

  34.  @Kaeroyal  "Have some dignity and work hard." Thinks like that.

  35.  @Euragone68  CA is a victim of its own success. Thanks in large part to NIMBYism, there's a severe supply & demand problem. SF's own geography has a lot to do with it as well; there's no room to grow.

  36.  @nameisnotrelevant Foreign aid is a tiny part of the budget.

  37. There's no connection. Foreign aid is a very, very small part of the budget.

  45. No, a Proud Boy did the stabbing.

  49. No, the problem predates the past 2 1/2 years.
