  • Last Thursday, we learned that the only Safeway grocery store in the Western Addition of San Francisco will close.
    Community members and those with the NAACP are speaking out, saying if this plan goes through, this will negatively impact the city's Black community with longterm implications.

    And it didn't have to be mentioned. Pictures speak a thousand words. And pictures of rows and rows of products being locked up is enough evidence for us.

      SF and Oakland seem to labor under the delusion that criminals just didn't get enough afterschool programs and bedtime stories. Criminals just need a big hug to get on the straight and narrow, y'all! For some reason these same far left voters can understand the greed of billionaires but greed from "regular people" must 100 percent come from some sort of trauma or neglect, and the remedy for that is to simply stop arresting them. The bay area is learning about basic human nature the long and expensive way what most kids who didn't grow up in an affluent, helicopter parent bubble learned by age 10. The saddest thing is the bay area thinks its naivete is some sort of virtue. To be suckers, to be lambs to the slaughter is somehow proof of one's virtue. Anyone who doesn't gladly volunteer themselves to be victimized is privileged and racist.
