San Francisco is being engulfed by a “tidal wave” of overdoses with deadly fentanyl claiming 62 lives out of 71 total deaths from drug overdoses last month, according to grim statistics released by city’s Medical Examiner’s office.
The liberal Northern California city is in the midst of a crime, homeless and drugs crisis and the results were released on the same day as a new report which concluded “City hall is failing” its citizens. The overdose figures also place San Francisco on course to break a 2020 record for total number of overdoses, when 712 people died according to the San Francisco Chronicle.
“This tidal wave of fentanyl continues to overwhelm our communities,” Dr. Grant Colfax, San Francisco health department director, told the newspaper. “The department recognizes that the tragic, continuing rise of overdose deaths in San Francisco is unacceptable and we want everyone to know we are responding with urgency and with our full attention.”

“All across the board, you see progressive policies in California, Colorado, Portland, Washington, New York that support harm reduction. That is like trying to train a rattlesnake not to bite you. It’s a political issue at this point and until the politics are resolved, the criminality won’t be resolved either.”



Commentary:
Its quite obviously that the elected officials local, state or federal connected have no love or care about the city, or the people that elected them to office..
So Nancy Pelosi the Democrat Congress woman from San Francisco as nothing to say about this horrible state of affairs the city and its populace are in.
But let’s just keep tolerating drug use. Funny, how drug abuse keeps increasing the more we loosen up on marijuana laws.
Odd isn`t it the more tolerant we are about drug use the worse the problem becomes.
Under Biden and Maoist Democrat auspices we lose nearly twice as many young Americans each year than we lost in 20 years of war in Vietnam. Yes over 100,000 Americans killed by illegal drugs smuggled in from Mexico, Central America manufactured with precursors from China.
The Maoist Democrats with a lot a help by Joe Biden has allowed this to occur with their open border policy.
Of course Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. and his merry Maoist/DSA Democrat administration says everything is going 'well' so I don't know what the issue is. The Economy is up, unemployment down, Inflation down, Supply side up and our planes and trains are on time.
Yet, the fentanyl problem is going to continue to fester, flow, growing more tentacles into far reaching towns/cities, it's hit most of them already!

They should just stand back and let them have at it. Give them all the fentanyl they want.....give it 6 months....it will quiet down

That's good.... The way for San Francisco to fix it is to place large bins of free fentanyl on every corner in about 3 months the whole problem I'll solve itself.
