Kathryn "Kate" Steinle was out for an evening stroll with her father along the San Francisco waterfront when she was killed by a man who police said she didn't know.
The shooting occurred Wednesday evening while still light at Pier 14 — one of the busiest tourist destinations in the city, a place where people gather to take in the views, joggers exercise, and families push strollers at all hours.
I missed this story, so thanks for sharing. Strangely, two different news crews were mugged and a cameraman pistol whipped the next morning while reporting from the scene. Kind of shocking for that part of town, because the Embarcadero is crawling with tourists this time of year and generally considered safe. So sad for the family. I can only imagine their grief.
Reminds of that woman in Helen Georgia who was killed while walking down the street last year.
Turns out some knucklehead had his gun accidentally go off and the bullet ricocheted across the street and killed a tourist from Texas who was just strolling along.
They just need more hugs and health care they really are good people they just had bad upbringings and drugs tempted them into a life of crime. Really these guys need permanent shelter and a safe place they need to be rehabilitated. Really these guys are the victims, they are just a product of a society with tons of socioeconomic and wealth inequality. They did not make any of their own decisions corporate fatcats and republicans are to blame here really.

San Fran has a really filthy underbelly. The city gives me the creeps. Most any huge, metro, gives me the creeps, but San Fran UST has a feel about it that makes me want to just stay plumb out of there. I'll take my vacations in the mountains, or out in the desert. The less people the better. And I can carry my own gun out in the scrub, and have my four legged, fur bearing alarm system with me too.

My guess is that he was high as the sun on some really nasty drug. Like meth, bath salts, PCP, Crack.
It'd keep destructive high people out of society, allow them to kill themselves/each other off, and once everything is established, reduce government spending in the long run.
The man suspected of gunning down a young woman at random at a popular San Francisco tourist spot on Wednesday has been “deported to Mexico several times,” according to a report by the local ABC News affiliate.
What happened to this young woman is what Donald Trump is warning us about. Even if you don't like the man, pay attention to his message. It's only going to get worse if we don't enforce immigration law.
Why is there suddenly so much crime at Pier 14? Why did news crews get attacked? What's going on around there?
