Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire San Francisco, a liberal haven

Idaho's new castle doctrine law allows citizens to blow his sorry butt away if he tries it here.

Proposition 47, "The Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Proposition_47_(2014)

was a flim-flam trick by politicians in response to what FatCity67 mentioned,: prison overcrowding (Side question: So why does California produce so many criminals?).

By reclassifying certain non-0violent felonies (felony: over a year in State prison) as misdemeanors (up to a year in County jail), the State was able to meet Supreme Court standards by releasing into the wild close to 60,000 former drug addicts and burglars (yea, burglary is a non- violent felony-non-misdemeanor). The dopes of California were duped by nice sounding titles and so now have junkies shooting up on their doorways, which is only a misdemeanor, and the home owner wonders why?

When caught for a demeanor in a very busy city, you are given a court date on a citation. I skip the Traffic box and check the misdemeanor box. You are supposed to show up on the date, about 45 days after the initial capture-and-release, and deal with the justice system. If convicted (which is hard to do in San Francisco), you often get two weekends of picking up trash as a sentence.

Hence we are overwhelmed by property crime. OR restated, we are overwhelmed by car break-ins, burglaries, thefts, drug usage, drug residue, fecal matter from junkie ex-felons who will never hold a job in their lives, and other blight.

All from feel-good policies by liberal politicians who promoted "common sense" and "fair" sentencing reform and were also (rolling with thier voting base ) anti police.

For all those leery of police: Stay the course. We must keep law enforcement honest or else we are controlled. Who controls the police? The politicians and big donors. Whether it's Raymond "Shrimp Boy"
Chow or Twitter and Facebook .

But we should build more prisons to enforce sentences or redact the penal code and allow self protection.

Our society is splintered and the puppet masters love pitting us against ourselves.

Recently heard someone refer to San Francisco as "America's largest public restroom"...............

There any way to herd those fires into San Fransicko?

As a man I couldn't sleep a single night knowing that $1.00 of my money was going to that state government.

...and as a woman?

Waiting for your answer.

Watching SF politics is something of a spectator sport in Northern California. In 2005 SF put a proposition (Prop H) on the ballot to ban handguns. They KNEW it wouldn't stand up because it conflicted with state preemption laws. A nearly identical proposition had been previously overturned on exactly those grounds. After it passed, the NRA took it to court, just like everyone knew they would. The NRA won on state premption grounds, just like everyone knew they would. Then SF appealed it. And lost, just like everyone knew they would.

San Francisco squandered nearly a million dollars, including $380,000 to the NRA for legal costs, on a proposition everyone knew would be overturned. That's money that could have gone to fill potholes, run the schools and take care of the homeless.

But at least they "made a statement".

I know a lady that was offered a VERY HIGH PAYING office job there as the office manager and she told her firm....HELL NO...NO WAY!!

Just stay aware. The last time I was in Texas, I heard the usual liberal garbage about "fair" sentencing for criminals. It will appeal to the criminal culture of the lower class communities. Note that the decent people of the lower economic communities is crying for help with the thugs.

That stuff is creeping into everywhere.

San Francisco has been under Democrat control since 1964, go figure.

+1........... Coming soon to a municipality near you. It's all about "fair and equitable" so the poorer thugs among us can get a break. It's the so-called "new normal".
