San Francisco grapples with growing crime, blight after years of liberal policies

[alexw]

a leftist, marxist idealogue using reverse think.
Auto programmed response.
I love the fact he is trying to tout that only old people "YES" the same old people that always vote democrap and fall for the left fear mongering are now only right-wing.
OH yeah, wow you are so young and leftist and cool and hip. WOW! mega edgy. fight the power, dude!

Yeah the typical reply I expect from someone from the alt-reich. You forgot to put the word "cultural" before the word marxist. And forgot to call me a "cuck" too.

Now why don't you go back to stormfront where you truly belong?

[TrumpIsPresident]

The point is, you're blaming liberal policies without actually looking into why things are as they are like you are willing to do with Alabama.

San Francisco has high property crime because they have a high homeless population.

The only liberal position that I blamed were the ones akin to refusing to acknowledge the fact that certain people have certain behaviors and that the cultures of violence and thuggery thrive on the indulgence of bleeding hearts who seek to place blame everywhere except where it belongs.

The way I see it is that since the government is playing such an active role in funding the full existence of these people that makes it an excellent opportunity to address the behavioral and cultural side as well.

Now you seem fixated on Alabama but I'm not sure why so clue me in on that and tell me what you think their problem is.

Violent crime didn't go up. It was property crime that went up.

A lot of the programs that the homeless go to cities for are run by non-profit organizations. Homeless would go to cities even without those programs because higher population density means they're more likely to be given money from people on the street.

Ignoring the problem of homelessness or shipping them off to other states isn't a viable solution. That's why cities like San Francisco is trying to help them. Which unfortunately draws even more homeless into the city.

I don't know what solution you have in mind for the homeless or why you think San Francisco is bad for being "bleeding hearts" and trying to help the problem.

[matt4pack]

They just can't stand it when liberal states and cities are more successful than conservative bastions. That's why the "coastal liberal elite" is their new villain.

Well it's not that hard when the IT industry pretty much invented outsourcing using slave labor while at the same time hoarding the wealth that slave labor has provided.

And pretty much every city even in red states votes Democrat.

[Masark]

Mexico still exists.

Yes, and they also wish you would get your act together regarding gun control.

Yeah it's all those registered legal gun owners causing all the crime. Make more laws so they will stop doing it.

Basically, yes. Do you think that S&W runs a factory to produce guns for criminals or they just appear in criminals hands ex nihilo?

Someone, somewhere, almost certainly in the USA (given that guns go FROM the USA TO Canada and Mexico), legally purchased that firearm, then either turned around and sold it or was negligent regarding its storage and it was stolen.

Pretty sure people were already outsourcing to China and whatnot prior to the rise of the IT industry, but umm, nice attempt at shitposting.

The real deplorables, or just too much tolerance?

Fox news. get a real & reliable news source, not some propaganda outfit.

WOW, nice comeback grandma. you hit all the buzzwords. But really I am thinking of joining the alt-right because of ass hats like you. U mad bro?

im surprised people like that can afford to live in san fran, i hear its expensive there

[hellosaltygoodness]

liberal policies? well that would make it the one place that liberal policies weren't working out, since high crime rates and pretty much any other social ill that isn't even criminal are everywhere else in the united states strongly correlated with conservative policies.

feel free to go live in mississippi

it must be a paradise by now with so many years of christian conservative rule

gun laws don't work because criminals don't obey laws

then countries with strict gun control must have similar firearm homicide rates as the USA, right?

[Nathreim]

Yes, and they also wish you would get your act together regarding gun control.

Thats fucking rich Mexico makes Detroit look like Santa's Village. Point is if guns suddenly vanished in the US the cartels would just add them to the long list of smuggled items nothing would change except starting a new arms race among the criminal element.

Mississippi's rank as one of the poorest states is related to its dependence on cotton agriculture before and after the Civil War, late development of its frontier bottomlands in the Mississippi Delta, repeated natural disasters of flooding in the late 19th and early 20th century that required massive capital investment in levees, and ditching and draining the bottomlands, and slow development of railroads to link bottomland towns and river cities. In addition, when Democrats regained control of the state legislature, they passed the 1890 constitution that discouraged corporate industrial development in favor of rural agriculture, a legacy that would slow the state's progress for years.

It's gotten better yeah, but the state still suffers from Democratic incompetence.

Oh yeah, 19th Century, definitely the same party with the same ideology as in the 21st.

You know what makes places expensive to live in?

Lots of people wanting to live there.

[zhero]

grow government and ease law enforcement

those two things don't even belong together, and growing government is far from liberal.

[Deleted]

Shitting in the streets is the most conservative display you can do in remembrance of our history, these people are simply trying to upkeep traditions and are in no way toilet-using scum liberals.

[Deleted]

Good to know. But do they consider more than just penis in vagina rape?

Yeah, acts that can be compared to intercourse. Such as forcing someone into oral sex or inserting fingers.

[Barnabas]

Of course it is because they want the city to end up in bankruptcy so they can roll out a new plan for the city under bank rule. It's par for the course for them.
