And further more, San Diego's mayor is a Republican. And San Diego has had Republican mayors in the past. Homelessness is rising in San Diego. Can't blame that on "liberals".
He's a RINO. Pro immigration, pro climate change, pro all that inclusion stuff.
What is happening throughout California is that the middle class are fleeing because they cannot afford to live there and it's morphing into a state of wealthy/poor.
What the hell has fecal contamination got to do with being liberal? Grow up and come to the table with a rational argument.
I lived in San Francisco for 3 years. It was disgusting. I could not wait to leave. I hated it. It has zip to do with being liberal.
You need to educate yourself why there is a massive homeless problem in California and it has nothing to do with being a Democratic state. Go away and research Californias homeless problem then come back here with an honest answer.
Well, to be honest those running SF make most liberals look ultra conservative and have for many years...
It's gotten so expensive in the Bay Area, that people with jobs are living in their cars, or in situations like that warehouse that burned down with all those people in it in Oakland. I was in Oakland last summer for work and people there were paying 3k a month for total **** shacks.
My HS buddy that live in San Francisco makes well over 100k a year, and all he can afford is a studio.
People are being priced out of their homes. Oakland apartments that cost 800 a month five years ago have tripled in rent.
I wish I could say that I hope that never happens to people, like those in this thread that are callous about the plight of the broke people, but I'm not that enlightened of a person.
Those days I spoke of were well before Google and their "ilk" took over SF making SF unaffordable to all except the wealthy. Some of this goes back to when good old Diane Feinstein was boss hog there. The SF stink and homeless takeover has been going on for well over 20 years...

I noticed the rich/poor contrast even back in the 80s. Now it's crazy. I don't understand the willingness to live like a pauper just to reside there unless one has a guaranteed track to becoming one of the "haves". Even then, the homeless are still drugging and crapping on the streets in ever increasing numbers.
Maybe the wealthy like looking down on poor and middle class even if they have to step over needles and piles of dung to get to their offices. In most places the working class/poor would be horrified at the sights and sounds and smells of what is going on in elite expensive cities.
I know many California cities have the smell of liberalism which is the smell of feces and urine.
I was in downtown Los Angeles very recently and the stench of urine and feces was absolutely
crazy. Streets full of tents line overpasses and many streets downtown, yet the liberal California
politicians ignore it and turn their back on the homeless and have no shame that just a trip to a California
cities downtown could sicken someone.
It is like a third-world country in California. A gilded elite class than tremendous amounts of filth at ground-level that is nearly as much of a health hazard as chicken sitting in a hot sun.
So this is what conservatives have resorted to? The "smell" of liberalism is feces and urine? Give me a break.
After all this complaining do any of you have any legal, let alone humane, suggestions about what to do to solve these problems?
Get Rid Of Democrats is their only idea of a solution for fixing any city's problems.
