[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Amazing how much hate the right has for SF when it has one of the lowest murder rates amongst big cities in America.  Here is the list for most dangerous cities in 2019 and SF does not appear in the top 65:

But Trumpers are conditioned to hate SF. Despite the average citizen being much safer in SF than in Peoria, Shreveport, or Tuscaloosa, Cleveland,Milwaukee, etc.

Interesting that you quoted numbers from 2019.  It is now 2021 and those numbers have increased considerably.

2019 is the last year with completed FBI data.  Violent crime is on the rise everywhere. Smaller cities like Peoria, Tuscaloosa, Birmingham, and Dayton are waaaaay more dangerous than SF. But republicans don’t care.  They just care about bashing SF because it fits some weird political narrative.  [/quote]

Um didn’t you just disprove your own narrative saying it’s gotten worse nationwide? Crime is going up? Why? Are you going to blame it all on Covid woes or are there aaaaany other reasons it might have gotten worse in the last few years? Any ideas?[/quote]

My point was not that crime is not a problem. As you mentioned, I stated crime rates are going up everywhere. [b]My point is that I don't understand why republicans always care so much about San Francisco's issues compared to everywhere else[/b].  It is weird.  I think the rising crime rates are multi-factorial, and that public antipathy for the police among a segment of the left is a factor.  I don't think a particular District Attorney's political leanings are an important factor for violent crime rates. For example, Joe Deters, the head prosecutor in Hamilton County, OH, which includes Cincinnati, is a pretty run-of-the-mill prosecutor. Murder rates are high in Cinci to a much greater extent than SF. The same could be said for Louisville or Dayton, or many other cities. Rising crime is only mentioned by republicans where it fits a political narrative, which is disingenuous.

We have seen - far too many times - that what happens in California eventually rears its ugly head in other parts of the country.  We have seen a wave of progressive prosecutors installed in formerly moderate areas of the country (Fairfax County, for instance).  
The goal is to oust these progressive prosecutors that have been bought and paid for by Soros.  Get. them. all, out.  [/quote]

It goes way back, it's San Francisco's LGBT friendliness, and even earlier as an outpost for hippie counterculture types in Haight-Ashbury.  The right views San Francisco as some kind of evil Sodom and Gomorrah.[/quote]

:lol:  :lol: 
Really?  This is the narrative you're going to push?  That "the right" views SF as a sinful cesspool?  No, honey.  Plenty of people, across the political spectrum, see SF for exactly what it is - a beautiful, once vibrant city that is now a crime-ridden, drug-laden, homeless magnet.  This has nothing to do with "LGBT friendliness," you moron.  Makes you feel good to gaslight, I suppose.  Grow up and face reality.

LMAO - the right wingers are triggered by the harsh truth.  We see right through you.[/quote]

Right back atcha.  The left wingers are so triggered by the harsh truth of what San Francisco has become that they're resorting (as usual) to deflection and outright lies in the hopes of changing the subject.  Not going to work.  We see right through you, and it's not pretty.[/quote]

Already exposed as bullshit because a lot of other cities including Republican-run ones have also had an increase in crime.  [b]Not to mention that a lot of San Francisco's mentally ill homeless were sent there by red-county Sheriffs including the population of a 1000-bed mental institution in Utah that was bussed to San Fran[/b].[/quote]

We'll wait while you provide *legitimate* links for the bolded.  As for your first sentence, there are far, far fewer Republican-run cities, as we all know.  And they are simply nowhere near as dangerous as the Democrat-run cities.  Please do continue to deny, deflect, and throw out strawmen.[/quote]
