  1. My theory is this tax is not to raise money. It is to disincentivise residents from moving away and taking their taxable incomes with them.
    218
  2. San Francisco has been a one party county since 1980. Liberals need to blame themselves for their own failed policies.
    180
  3. Why is Sean, a real estate guy, doing better investigative reporting than mainstream media!?
    157
  4. And people wonder why nobody wants to use public transit in America. You do not see this in Japan.
    143
  5. Why is Wheeler pepper spraying a mostly peaceful protester?
    139
  6. Makes sense. Just like insurance stopped covering CA for earthquake damage, why would anyone insure Portland businesses for riot damage. It is not if, but when these events occur.
    138
  7. The poverty defense is an insult to the 99.98% of people who work, save and follow the law.
    119
  8. And this, boys and girls, is why we do not want liberal city politics applied to every county or across every state without considering their local situations.
    116
  9. Texas can tell the DOJ to come down to Texas and enforce the courts decision themselves. Texas can ignore the court order just like California ignored the Bruen decision. Protect the border one way or another, Texas!
    95
  10. Liberals in cities have always told conservatives they can leave. This is the best solution.
    95
  11. $600K is still too expensive to live among the drug addicts and crime.
    93
  12. I blame BLM for defunding police, burning neighborhoods and attacking people. Cities are now a third world country.
    91
  13. Remember the criminal has no interest in fighting fair. Therefore law abiding citizens should not hesitate to do the same. Use whatever gun you can get your hands on to defend yourself. Self defense is asymmetric warfare.
    85
  14. The residents of Portland voted for this. Don't regret your decisions now. Portland voters are to blame for this mess.
    84
  15. Shut down all grocery stores in Seattle. Krogers shut down in Long Beach for the exact same law.
    83
  16. If only the people of AZ elected Kari Lake for governor. The National Guard would have secured AZ's border last year.
    82
  17. CVS closed 17 stores the last 2 years in SF for this same reason. It is like criminal coddling is a bad idea.
    80
  18. Offer these people one chance to get off the streets. If they refuse, leave them be. If they freeze, so be it. The 9th circuit has made it clear the homeless can not be removed by law. If they have an issue with their own ruling, the judges can go to Alaska and take them themselves.
    76
  19. That work requirement is a federal law. NYC wants to take their sanctuary status up to level 11 now. This will collapse wages in NYC and will be an economic death sentence for low skilled and entry level workers.
    74
  20. It only takes ONE incident for emergency services to be overwhelmed. No amount of money will help if they can not find bodies to fill the jobs.
    74
  21. If I were the Native American tribes, I would ask Walmart to open stores on tribal land. Then enforce laws to remove the drug addicts and prosecute thieves under federal law. This would be an excellent opportunity to eat Washington state's lunch.
    72
  22. That is one hell of a tax base reset. Think of the homeless industrial complex!
    72
  23. This is tantamount to illegal government seizures. I want to know if these landlords voted Democrat.
    68
  24. What did these liberals think would happen when they tried to bankrupt small business owners? Costs will always go up.
    67
  25. If the federal court blocks homeless sweeps, let the drug addicts camp out in front of the federal courthouse. Let the judiciary go deal with the problem they contributed to.
    64
  26. What exactly are CA taxpayers paying for? Also since police will not respond, what will people use to defend themselves with such restrictive state gun laws?
    63
  27. Yeah. No. Not a chance in hell. Not with rent control, lopsided tenant rights and progressive policies working against landlords. It is committing financial suicide.
    62
  28. Any politican that screamed defund the police and change their mind need to resign first. The voters that elected the clown must also stop voting immediately.
    62
  29. Oakland is a lost cause and even Newsom is quietly conceding.
    62
  30. My 2nd Amendment rights enforce my other rights including ownership of my home.
    62
  31. Harris was the former DA for San Francisco. 78 million voters across America thought they want to implement SF policies nationwide. And conservatives are called the backwards and crazy ones.
    58
  32. Insurance companies need to stop insuring break in compensations for San Francisco, Oakland and Los Angeles. The voters need to experience the consequences of their vote.
    58
  33. I love a feel good story. Nobody in their right mind will let a criminal take their kid. The father did right.
    56
  34. Texas needs to remind those lefty liberals they are refugees, not missionaries. They need to leave their politics at the Texas border.
    55
  35. A wise man once said "everything woke turns to shit".
    55
  36. But that firebomb on his condo was mostly peaceful. So were those 100+ days of seige on the Portland Federal courthouse as he defended the rioters and cut them loose. Yup. Wheeler did nothing that constitutes sedition.
    54
  37. I guess criminals did not get the edict to shelter in place like Seattle's law abiding residents and businesses.
    53
  38. Do it! Close the locations in the areas that voted for politicians that supported BLM and defund the police. Let them experience the consequences of their vote.
    53
  39. This is why these non profits need to be audited regularly.
    50
  40. Giving people free stuff is the root cause of the homeless issue. These people need to stop enabling these leeches.
    48
  41. Just put the homeless in these spaces. SF needs to do more to drive out its remaining corporate tax base. It is the progressive thing to do.
    48
  42. If one party like the owner is telling the cops the lease is fake, then the lease is fake. A contract requires two parties. No new laws are needed. It is a problem of the police to stop siding with criminals. Do you think the police will have any problems arresting squatters if they did this to the Mayor's home?
    48
  43. This story reminds me of the premise of 80's Robocop movies. Before you know it, the private security will be contracted out to Omni Corp.
    48
  44. The CA liberal voters are responsible for the horrors in this state.
    47
  45. If sanctuary states and cities can defy federal immigration laws, then Texas can defy ineffective federal immigration law enforcement.
    43
  46. Just watch the next closest Safeway at 99 Jackson in SF to close. That one is tiny and constantly has homeless and addicts shoplifting on a daily basis.
    43
  47. Just get some social workers on the case. I am sure that will not hurt the criminals feelings.
    42
  48. It only took 40 years for someone in CA to finally call in the National Guard to take care of San Francisco.
    42
  49. SF's tax base is collapsing. This reckoning was about time. The commercial hubs need to be decentralized. Other cities should benefit from people working closer to their homes that are affordable and travel less.
    42
  50. In CA, the senate race has Barbara Lee proposing a $50/hr minimum wage. It is going to get wild if she wins the senate seat.
