[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If big stores are leaving SF (whole foods/starbucks), there is a poop map of the city, needles everywhere, and acknowledgment that more police are needed, it tells me that there are significant issues there.  In addition, there was the reparations discussion there that was approved by local legislative body which would concern me as well.  So many competing priorities and what will they fund with the pot of money they have?  It should be a priorities discussion, not raising taxes discussion.

People are leaving the city and for a good reason.  I’m no republican but this stuff makes me weary of super liberal politics as well.[/quote]

Yep.

In 2020, crime was going down and at lows in most of the country.  But with the pandemic, crime began to spike again.

The tweet was in August, 2020
Let's take a trip down memory lane.  What was going on in the US during the summer of 2020?

In San Francisco:

On May 30, a protest was held at UN Plaza in the afternoon.[19] Later that night, looting occurred at Union Square stores and ten arrests on felony looting were made. San Francisco Mayor London Breed issued a curfew.[20]
On June 18, city officials removed a statue of Christopher Columbus in San Francisco's Pioneer Park (near Coit Tower) after calls had been made on social media to throw the statue into the San Francisco Bay.[23]
On June 19, demonstrators in Golden Gate Park toppled or otherwise vandalized statues of Catholic missionary Junipero Serra, Francis Scott Key (author of the lyrics to The Star-Spangled Banner), Ulysses S. Grant, author Miguel de Cervantes and his fictional characters Don Quixote and Sancho Panza.[23] The archbishop of San Francisco, Salvatore Cordileone, described the toppling of the saint's statue as "an act of sacrilege [and] an act of the Evil One", and on June 27 performed an exorcism at the site using the Prayer to Saint Michael.[24][25]

Sure, a great time to defund the police.
Do you think we are stupid, pp?
