High Crime Forces San Francisco Federal Employees to Work Remotely

Everyone leaves leaving only the criminally inclined behind. Maybe this will work eventually.

Maybe we can nationally just start deporting all the criminals to San Francisco, like Australia.

Where's Snake Plissken when you need him?

I’m having lunch down the street right now. There’s nothing forcing them to work remotely.

It’s not THAT bad here. Different and a bit more dangerous than most places. More hectic, dirtier, homelessness, drug use, etc.

Some of the people on the street have hearts of gold. They deserve a narrative too.

But hey, if these negative stories keep undesirables (read: suburban people who complain about everything) out of the city, I don’t mind.

Not enjoying lawlessness and dangerous, dirty conditions with drug use nearby is "complaining about everything" now.

They just want the simple convenient narrative that all those people are "criminals" instead of the more accurate view that the city (and country) has neglected its responsibility to care for the citizens for so long that the resulting human suffering has become too large to convincingly hide by sweeping it under the rug. Give those people affordable housing, quality mental health care services, and well-paying jobs and there basically wouldn't be a problem anymore.

People (outsiders or not) should be complaining about the conditions in the city, but those complaints should be directed at the failure of the government to provide basic things like healthcare and housing, not at the addicts and homeless people who are sick and vulnerable doing whatever they can to get by.
