Happy highly fortified Wednesday afternoon from Grant Street #SanFrancisco

Tenderloin and Soma are disgusting for no reason other than San Francisco’s politicians choose to let it be disgusting. This is not rocket science, almost all cities have it solved. Our electeds simply refuse despite having the richest per capita budget in the entire US.

If you listen to SF politicians speak, they make it sound like the drug markets and ambient crime is some unsolved fundamental physics problem. It’s not: it’s completely solvable. They just choose not to bc they value the traffickers and crackheads more than they value you.

Every time a sidewalk or library or playground or bus station is overrun with junkies in San Francisco, it’s because City of San Francisco has made the explicit decision that they are more important than you and have a greater claim to those spaces than you.

San Francisco in a nutshell. I pass well over a hundred drug users every morning, including many milling about outside our hospital and parking garage. I care for them when they land in our hospital and I’m proud to do that work. But the city refuses to revoke sanctuary

EXTRA, EXTRA, READ ALL ABOUT IT: San Francisco’s Dept, of Public Heath aims to pass out @ 150,000 doses of narcan - costing CA taxpayers $7,500 a day - but no goal for city’s 35,000 drug users to stop using. SFDPH thevoicesf.org/san-franciscos…

You can solve this conundrum with one word, but NYT doesn’t want to print it: Crime. You can’t visit Westfield Mall without seeing fentanyl. You can’t visit 5 times without seeing theft. Neither of which you will see at Stonestown. rly makes u think

So here's the problem in San Francisco. We've got 4,000 drug addicts roaming the streets. And despite the crackdowns, we generally haven't removed them because there's nowhere to put them. Lurie is finding out now just how hard of a task that it is. 🧵

Everett Blair Correct. Drug tourism is a real thing.

4th largest economy. I will never get it. So much rhetoric and grandstanding. The “most vulnerable,” “marginalized neighbors” its a fentanyl disaster. They made this normal. I will repeat again, this isn’t normal. Tell them you are tired of watching humans suffer in the gutter.

I thought about this over the weekend and the reason this is so frustrating is that it’s just BART Directors and a state politician congratulating themselves for 1) raising taxes to 2) cover for lost revenue due to 3) problems their incompetence created in the first place.

Hey Daniel Lurie - Crime is not down in Haight Ashbury. Daniel Lurie 丹尼爾·羅偉 Brooke Jenkins 謝安宜 The San Francisco Standard 💥Susan Dyer Reynolds🗞️ Residents are discouraged from filing police reports. San Francisco residents have stopped reporting crimes because nothing is ever done. Does that mean crime is

Today at Market & Castro, I had one of the scariest experiences I’ve had in SF. My friend and I had just finished breakfast and were walking out of a café at the intersection when a man in a red hoodie approached us, muttered things, and we avoided him. We thought that was it.

Pink shows the parts of San Francisco zoned for single family homes. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a map of an American city that showed a bigger failure of governance.

Saw this today on the street. Anyone who says homelessness isn't a drug crisis is absolutely lying to protect their ideology and funding. By the time you get down to the street, it's drugs and mental illness. That's the truth.

A grid this perfect being strictly zoned for single-family homes is a failure of epic proportions.

Just once I would like to hear a San Francisco elected say “fuck the junkies, petty criminals, and drug dealers—we’re taking back the city for normal people.” In Chinatown, it should be District 3 supervisor Danny Sauter 李爾德 making the statement.

Cut the head off the snake. running the dealers out of town is the easiest, most efficient way to create a healthy San Francisco. the remaining users get essential addiction treatment. boom. so why aren't we doing this?

Delete the drug scene or face the feds. the clock is ticking. if city "leaders" don't spring into action and finally fix this criminal, deadly, squalid mess they will be the ones to blame for a federal takeover. Will they finally take real action, though? to finally care enough
