San Francisco... a city I love. Situated between the Pacific Ocean and the San Francisco Bay, the city itself is beautiful. Or once was.
Poor political leadership has taken its toll on the city. Crime is rampant and homeless people legally defecate in the streets. It's the only city I know of where you can download map to show you where feces is on the street.
In June of 2020, San Francisco mayor, London Breed, defunded her police department by redirecting funds from the San Francisco Police Department "to support the African-American community."
Fast forward to last week. Crime in San Francisco has increased exponentially. Police don't even respond to car burglaries and other petty crimes. Drug dealing in the streets is rampant, both in the city and the suburbs, according to the mayor. And her police department is hurting for officers. Go figure.
So after defunding her police force three years ago she now realizes crime in her city is out of control and she wants federal assistance.
If the request actually gets to Congress I hope it will be denied. Nothing against the crime victims in San Francisco but when you elect stupid leaders you get stupid leadership and you pay for your vote in one way or another. Good luck
