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

San Francisco is earning a growing reputation for more than just its unmatched tech sector – for critics, the city stands as a profound example of the damage ultra-liberal policies can do.

After 20 years of envelope-pushing changes to grow government and ease law enforcement, the once-shining City by the Bay has turned into a place where:

Property crime runs amok
An online map is needed to track human feces on city streets
Discarded syringes are common sightings
Public urination is so widespread it has damaged subway elevators and escalators, building walls and power poles

San Francisco also has a very high crime rate. The city is an epic failure with leftists running into the ground.

I once called San Francisco a "shithole," much to the howls of Leftists.  To date, they have yet to prove me incorrect.

It's been that way for a long time. I had to avoid bums and watch for crap back when I got my passport at the SF State Department office in 1999. SF park playgrounds are unsafe, due to discarded used needle (Thank you, free needle programs!)
