SF residence sue the city because of the drug problem

[YoursTruly]

I doubt this will do any good. The local government over there don't seem to care much for decent citizens or business owners.
But who knows. Maybe it'll wake them up.
Maybe the democrats on the city council and those leftist judges and prosecutors will get the hint.

Terrified residents of San Francisco’s Tenderloin district sue for streets free of drugs, tents​

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Two hotels and several residents of San Francisco’s troubled Tenderloin district sued the city on Thursday, alleging it is using the neighborhood as a containment zone for rampant illegal drug use and other vices, making residents terrified to leave their homes and businesses unable to recruit staff.

Plaintiffs do not seek monetary damages, according to the complaint filed in federal court. Instead, they want officials to clear sidewalks of illegal drug dealers and fentanyl users, violent behavior and tent encampments and to treat the Tenderloin as it would any other neighborhood where crime is not tolerated.

They say city officials have allowed such behavior to flourish in the area — and not spill into other neighborhoods — by refusing to keep sidewalks clear for people using walkers or wheelchairs and failing to ban sidewalk vending, among other acts of omission.

“They demand an end to the rampant illegal street vending, and from the squalor and misery that exists throughout their neighborhood because the city has decided that people in the throes of addiction can live and die on the Tenderloin’s streets,” said Matt Davis, one of the attorneys, in a prepared statement.

The only time it'll do any good is when foreign leaders, like Xi, visit the city. This is when democrats jump into action and pull an El Paso to put lipstick on a pig. Then it's back to usual.

SF has begun to wake up. How far it will go is questionable.

The Tenderloin has always been where hard times lives. This suit is going nowhere.

I worked in the TL for over 20-Years. Drugs have always been a problem, but under the current mayor it has become living nightmare. London Breed has almost nothing about fentanyl. She like fast easy and very public answers, if she does do she will hype it. When she fail there is alway a convenient explaination. She is up reelection and she does not deserve the job.
