  1. No federal funds for Minneapolis. My tax dollars aren't paying for this.

  2. I lived in the Bay Area for twenty years. Most special dining experience: Eating at a sidewalk cafe with some colleagues. A homeless man drops his trousers and takes an enormous dump on the sidewalk less than two feet from where we were sitting, then turned around and urinated on us. The waiter didn't turn a hair. Aberrant, antisocial behavior is normalized in San Francisco. When I described this experience to my boss, with no embellishment and no judgmental words nor profanity, she said "Oh here we go, hating on the homeless!" See, that's the problem right there: the homeless are saints and you cannot say a word against their antisocial, disgusting behavior, or you're an irredeemable bigot. I have lots of other stories, some of which involve saving women who were being chased/attacked by homeless men, but I think you get the picture. When I retired, I moved out of the Bay Area within twenty-four hours and I will never go back.

  3. I worked for LA Public Library for a few years. Our branch was a hub for social services for the homeless. I got to know quite a few homeless folk. Every single one of them told me they were not interested in a conventional lifestyle; being homeless was their choice and they scorned services designed to get them off the street. They got free everything and never had to work; indeed, most of them seemed rather carefree. I enjoyed talking with them, but I did note a huge sense of entitlement. Giving them a monthly stipend would just further solidify their choice. But it's Portland and you can't talk sense to those folks.

  4. Maybe Leonel Moreno should seek asylum from persecution in a safe country, like, oh, I don't know, Venezuela.

  6. I worked for years in the business district of San Francisco, only a couple of blocks away from the TransAmerica Pyramid, leaving just a few years ago. If I hadn't had that experience, I'd say the horror stories of homeless everywhere, public defecation/urination, out of control street crime, etc, were wildly exaggerated. They're not--they're accurate (and I understand from friends that conditions have gotten worse since then). The last time I ate at a sidewalk cafe in SF, a homeless man dropped his trousers and defecated a few feet from us, then turned, his trousers still down, and urinated on us. My friend's wife says she's been chased many times by homeless men who wanted to harm her, and I've witnessed that, too. I had MANY tourists tell me that while they enjoyed parts of San Francisco, the public misbehavior of the homeless shocked them--and they said they'd never return. Those people went home and told their family and friends about their experiences, folks. San Francisco's economy is heavily dependent on tourism, and its government is killing the goose that laid the golden egg.

  8. San Francisco isn't going anywhere but down under Mayor Breed

  9. The shoplifters will sue the store if they're injured.

  10. After Black Lives Matter protesters last year demanded that cities “Defund the police,” San Francisco Mayor London Breed held a press conference to announce that her city would be one of the first to do exactly that. Breed cut $120 million from the budgets of both San Francisco’s police and sheriff’s departments. A spokesperson for the police officers’ union warned the cuts “could impact our ability to respond to emergencies.” (NY Post 12/15/21)

  11.  @millylopez6913  BART went from "dangerous late at night" to "dangerous in broad daylight".

  13. Repeat after me: If you have a dick, you do not undress with the chicks.

  14. I'm surprised the city hasn't hired Meatball as a Reparations Facilitator. Think of that video as her job interview.

  15. Relax, we Boomers will be dead in no more than 100 years and then it's all yours, kids.

  16. I already experienced this with a family of Iraqi "refugees" who lived on the other side of a duplex I rented. Landlord claimed there were six people living there. It was twenty-two and they came and went 24/7/365. I didn't get a good night's sleep for my entire lease. Welcome to Hell, fellow Americans, brought to you by the Democratic Party and their Republican enablers.

  17. Oh, that's ok. The government can just raise taxes on us or print more money. Ukraine, Israel, illegals...it's all fine as long as it's not spent in any way, shape, or form to benefit the taxpaying US citizens who built this country. (Note: Youtube is likely to remove my comment because I called them "illegals" instead of "migrants".)

  18. I will give the Mexicans this: they came here to work. The new "migrants" came here to leech.

  19. I live in a small town in Kansas. Recently, a "faith based charity" has begun buying up every house for sale in the town--prepping to house our invaders? There'll be no sanctuary in this country.

  20. Democratic politicians have lost their damned minds. It's bad enough that all of these foreigners broke the law to enter the US, but then we're supposed to spend additional money to keep them here after they commit additional crimes??? This only makes sense if your agenda is to destroy American society. There's no other explanation.

  21. It's a start, but they used the rope wrong.
