Drug arrests prove this city is a 'magnet' for homelessness, crime, activist says

The vast majority of people arrested in San Francisco's crackdown on open-air drug markets have been from out of town, according to police data. One recovery advocate says people from other counties and states see the liberal city as a sanctuary for illicit activity.

"Everyone knows that San Francisco kind of takes a hands-off approach to law enforcement," recovering addict-turned-activist Tom Wolf told Fox News. "So they know that if they come to San Francisco they can get high, they can probably score a free tent, get money from the government and get food stamps and health insurance all while living on the street for free."

San Francisco Police Chief Bill Scott said two weeks of the crackdown on open-air drug markets in the Tenderloin neighborhood yielded 45 arrests. Of the drug users arrested, only three reported being from San Francisco.

"The majority of the people that we are coming in contact with … they don't live here," Scott said at a recent San Francisco Police Commission meeting.

Scott called the statistics "surprising" but could only offer anecdotal answers for why more than 90% of alleged users were not local. He said he has spoken with people on the streets, asking why they chose to do drugs in San Francisco.

"I’ve gotten answers like, ‘Drugs are cheap and plenty available, and you’ve got an environment where it’s permitted,’" Scott said.

Gee! Who woulda thought that?

San Francisco police are targeting drug sales and "blatant public illicit drug use," according to Scott's presentation at the police commission meeting. California Highway Patrol (CHP) and the California National Guard are also assisting local law enforcement at the behest of Gov. Gavin Newsom.

In just six weeks, CHP seized enough fentanyl in San Francisco to kill more than 2.1 million people, according to Newsom's office.

Fentanyl is up to 50 times stronger than heroin. It is responsible for the majority of accidental overdose deaths in San Francisco, according to the medical examiner.

Wolf thinks fentanyl is "changing the game" by increasing overdose deaths and causing more people to demand action.

Demand action? Excuse me, but YOU RET@RDS ARE THE ONES WHO VOTED FOR THE CITY GOVERNMENT THAT DID THIS. IT'S YOUR FAULT, @SSHOLES.

'Where do I sign up?' San Diego homeless woman says they’re ‘spoiled' with free stuff, phones

Kate Monroe dodged used hypodermic needles, discarded food containers and human waste as she navigated an area of San Diego known by locals as the Bottoms. The Marine Corps veteran and business owner was there to talk to as many of the city's homeless residents as possible, including one woman who said San Diego makes living on the streets "not that hard."

"Usually we're low income and when you're low income, you get free phones, free food, free clothing, there's so many resources that are just give and give and give," Mary said in a video Monroe shared.

"I think we're spoiled to be honest with you," Mary added. "My sister's like, 'Where do I sign up?’"

Nobody cares about your bullshit.

California is a disaster and has been getting worse for some time. The productive taxpayers are leaving and the poor looking for handouts are moving in. It's already at a point where it would be very hard to fix - soon it will be past the point of no return and we can start refering to it as venezuela north as it deserves.

Get woke go broke.

Wikipedia is reliable because they have to source their claims. That's why fascists don't like it. You only like right-wing media that just makes shit up.

Well whatever they're doing, it's working. Blue states have a higher quality of life than red states.

No they don't, you LIAR. Blue states have higher taxes, a higher cost of living, MORE CRIME and more homeless people. Califagula is a third world shithole. People are moving away in droves.

Regardless, this thread doesn't seem to reflect any news.. just an observation that's been so for decades if not longer.

OP is, as always, just shitposting. In this case, ironically, from a state with MUCH higher drug use and drug mortality than California. ?‍♀️

That's cool, but it's beside the point. Blue states have a higher quality of life than red states. All of the studies prove this, which is why the Right is against facts and data.

Nope. See, this is why conservatives reject data. Blue states actually lave less crime. Blue states do have higher taxes, but they also have better social programs which is why they have a long life expectancy. Things like that are why California is so successful, as much as the fashies hate to admit it.

That's very true except for the fact that it's entirely made up  
 

Which pretty much proves that it's the lefties that don't like their facts and prefer fiction

Turns out that's not really true.

Here's a map of violent crime rates, and a map of the last election.

What you can see is that crime rate really doesn't have all that much to do with whether they voted red or blue. Florida for example has a lower crime rate than cali, and texas and cali are about the same, north carolina and tenessee beat out kentuky and virginia -  it's literally kind of all over the map

So once again you lied. big shock

Oh  and california is actually doing horrbly. Nobody wants to live or work there.  As you can see from the sources below  - people are fleeing the state far faster than anyone moving to it (and the people moving to it are often just undeclared immigrants who aren't bringing jobs with them).

ANd businesses of every shape and size are also running like hell.

Soooo - turns out the high taxes and shitty living conditions in Californa AREN'T to people's liking.

To call the Frankenstein's Monster that is the current populist movement conservative is to give in to them.

American Conservatives brought the first federal civil rights act, the environmental protection agency, international environment cooperation on the ozone layer and many other sensible and pragmatic ideas.

By the 1980s they came under the influence of The Chicago school of economics, and an extreme servitude to corporate interests.

After the supreme Court decision on Citizens United, it freed up money to help money into massive amounts of advertising that set the tone for political discourse.

The last piece of the puzzle was a news agency designed to keep populist Republicans in office via unbalanced reporting an endless cultural conflict, targeted to an exploitating the ignorant. I'll let you fill in the blank test to who I'm thinking about here.

No true conservative would look at what's happening now and think that this is what the framers of the US Constitution were thinking about.

And yes I I'm aware that this is a true Scotsman argument.

The media outlets that acted unethically to try to promote the republicans and keep them in power?

Well that's easy - it must be cnn, nbc. npr,  vox......   hey, wait a minute.....
