      XPost: alt.politics.trump, ca.politics, or.politics       XPost: talk.politics.guns       From: move.out@california.com              She's as dumb as Kamala and sucked as many penises too.              San Francisco Mayor Breed is announcing new legislation to put a curfew in       a section of the Tenderloin district, a part of the city that is notorious       for high crime, homelessness and public drug use.              In a post on X, Breed touted the measure.              "Shutting down open air drug markets requires strong enforcement and new       approaches," she wrote. "Last year SFPD doubled the arrests of drug       dealers from the year before. This year we are continuing that work and       federal agents are bringing even more enforcement."              In a press statement from Tuesday, the Mayor's office revealed that it       would introduce legislation to "prohibit some retail establishments       selling prepacked food or tobacco products from operating between 12 a.m.       (midnight) to 5 a.m. in part of the Tenderloin."              The proposal has been met with mixed responses from police, business       owners and residents of San Francisco.              "Our challenges still occur at night," Assistant Chief David Lazar told       KTVU in an interview. "Crowds of people that are there selling stolen       property, selling narcotics. We have drug users all over. And the problem       is that when you have businesses that are open, like liquor stores and       smoke shops, it just attracts more people."              A local restaurant manager, Tim Benson, told the outlet that a curfew may       help the neighborhood deal with crime.              "The police have been much more active, [Department of Public Works] has       been out helping the cleanup effort," said Benson. "But, it seems to be       mostly a daytime issue. And at nighttime, it's sort of still a wild, wild       west."              CHINESE AMERICANS TURN ON SAN FRANCISCO DEMOCRATS OVER CRIME, EDUCATION:       WSJ              "The reason why we want it to stay open is because we have to make more       money to pay rent, to pay bills, phone bills, internet bills, and we have       employees," an anonymous store worker told KTVU.              "We have extra security because of the area," the worker said.              A local San Francisco resident told the outlet that the curfew plan       wouldn't "work at all" because "people are still homeless and they're       still out here all night long, so the markets don't really have anything       to do with the crime."              The San Francisco Police Department did not respond to a request for       comment from Fox News Digital.              https://www.foxnews.com/media/san-francisco-mayor-breed-proposes-business-       curfew-reduce-rampant-drug-use-crime              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
