I think of SF as being liberal, but not socialist or that left.

Boon Mee

The People’s Republic of Berkeley tip-toes around its homeless problem, hoping for a peaceful coexistence while planning development in the sacred homeless haven called “The People’s Park:”

just came across this in the first few pages of this thread....

Well, you're likely to come across all kinds of stuff in this forum to grasp upon in desperation there, ray. San Francisco Values is a pertinent topic for these G_Dless times in which we find ourselves - surrounded as you will by secular-progressives who subscribe to the notion that 'if it feels good, do it'! Or, as Debby Boone so elequently stated: "How can it be wrong if it feels so right?"

I most certainly am but what about SF?

If you want to find a real bastion of San Fransisco values, check out the big island of Hawaii.
San Fransisco is notable to me for it's diversity- there are many more Silicon Valley yuppie types there than radical lesbians you know. And it's homeless problem, indeed. Union Square appalled me.

Yep...now I know this thread will never die - too much material.

How about Kao San Road?
Gotta few SF Values about there too, eh?

Last time I was on the Big Island all I got was the stare-down competition from the local mokes. He who breaks eye contact first loses. That was in the 80s maybe times have changed.


The lawn area in front of SF City Hall used to be a huge hobo camp complete with tents and porta-san toilets. They finally moved them out.

I work with this hippie chick from SF ( ganja and fishermans pants) and she is the most bossy demented twat you could ever imagine... If she is from the heart of "liberal" America God knows what the backwoods people are like

Maybe ray might know?

More evidence this thread will never run out of material!

Nanny Government out of control!

San Francisco's future burden is particularly heavy. Part of the reason is that San Francisco's health care benefits are among the most generous in the state. After five years of service, city employees are guaranteed lifetime health benefits for themselves and 50 percent benefits for a spouse or domestic partner. The state of California, by contrast, provides 50 percent health benefits after 10 years of service and full benefits after 20 years.

Those lovers of Free Speech in SF are at it again!
Attempting to silence a radio talk show host just because he's a little too-far right wing!

San Francisco fails in attack on Savage

Well, well, well, can you believe this? The bastion of left-wing moonbat values hates black folks!: Black Flight: Super-Liberal Totally-Tolerant San Fransisco Sees Black Population Fall By *Half*

"According to Census estimates, the number of blacks here shrank from 13.4% of the population in 1970 to just 6.5% in 2005 — the biggest percentage decline in any major American city."

Do you dispute the facts of the story?
It's also been picked up by your vaunted 'elite media' hacks.

Who are these "vaunted elite media hacks," specifically?
