The
Amount Of Human Feces On San Francisco Streets Is Going Up Every Single Year,
by Michael Snyder, 4/20/19.
Sometimes
the best metaphors come from real life. Today, San Francisco has eclipsed
Los Angeles and has become the most important city in America’s most heavily
populated state. It is the central hub of our tech industry, in many ways
it is one of the epicenters of our national moral decay, and the most powerful
Democrat in the entire country calls it her home. So somehow it seems
appropriate that the city is literally covered in human feces, and the problem
is getting worse with each passing year.
In
2011, there were 5,547 reported incidents of human feces found on the streets
of San Francisco, and by 2018 that figure had risen to 28,084. The
following numbers originally come from the San Francisco Department of Public Works…
2011:
5,547
2014: 10,644
2015: 13,326
2016: 18,276
2017: 20,668
2018: 28,084
And
the important thing to remember is that these numbers only represent “reported
incidents”. As Business
Insider has noted, the
true amount of human feces on the streets “is likely even higher”…
Notably, this is a chart of only
documented reports — the actual amount of feces on San Francisco’s streets is
likely even higher than these statistics suggest.
“I will say there is more feces on
the sidewalks than I’ve ever seen growing up here,” San Francisco Mayor London
Breed told NBC in a 2018 interview. “That is a huge problem, and we are not
just talking about from dogs — we’re talking about from humans.” If all of this
crap is a metaphor, what could it be a metaphor for?
One of the things that initially
came to my mind is that it could be a political metaphor. San Francisco
gave us Nancy Pelosi, and as Speaker of the House, she is currently the most
powerful Democrat in the entire nation. And without a doubt, she
certainly represents an ideology that is taking America straight down the crapper.
But of course, the Democrats
certainly don’t have a monopoly on corruption. Here in Idaho, there are
prominent Republicans that are giant moral sleazebags, and even the “good
conservatives” won’t say anything about the corruption because they are
concerned about the political ramifications.
San
Francisco’s human feces problem could also be a metaphor for our tech
industry. In particular, social media giants such as Facebook and Twitter
have been hit by scandal after scandal in recent years, and the extreme censorship
that they have been hitting us with has been absolutely nauseating. So it
would definitely not be too much of a stretch to equate the current state of
the tech industry with a giant pile of crap.
Last
but not least, could it be possible that all of this poop is a metaphor for the
moral decay that is emanating out of San Francisco? Certainly, Los
Angeles, New York and Washington D.C. are playing starring roles in our national moral decay as well, but there is something
about San Francisco that seems to attract the worst of the worst.
As
I noted the other day, San Francisco handed out 5.8
million free syringes in
2018 alone. And in a recent article by John Stossel, we are told that addicts can
shoot up in full public view and the police won’t even do anything about it…
San
Francisco is a pretty good place to “hang out with a sign.” People are rarely
arrested for vagrancy, aggressive panhandling or going to the bathroom in front
of people’s homes. In 2015, there were 60,491 complaints to police, but only
125 people were arrested.
Public
drug use is generally ignored. One woman told us, “It’s nasty seeing people
shoot up — right in front of you. Police don’t do anything about it! They’ll
get somebody for drinking a beer but walk right past people using needles.”
Each
day in San Francisco, an average of 85 cars are broken into. Could you imagine
trying to raise young children in an environment like that? At this point,
addicts are even shooting up in the bathrooms of San Francsico’s public libraries…
In
San Francisco, dozens, sometimes hundreds, of homeless people like
Martinez come to the
libraries daily.
Around the Bay Area, that number runs into the thousands.
This
can be a problem, when someone who’s mentally ill rants in the aisles or
addicts shoot up in the bathroom. But many libraries around the nation have
learned to keep those issues to a minimum — thanks largely to a pioneering
program in San Francisco that stationed a social worker on-site to help the
desperate, instead of just keeping a lid on them with police interventions.
It
has been said that “as California goes, so goes the nation”. So you may
be able to take solace in the fact that these things are not happening in your
area yet, but as our nation continues to go downhill it is just a matter of
time before virtually everywhere is just like San Francisco.
The
only way that we are going to take our country back is if we stand up
and do something.
Unfortunately, there is so much apathy among good people out there these days,
and meanwhile, there is a tremendous amount of passion among those that would
like to take America even further down the crapper.
You
are either part of the solution or you are part of the problem. And
unfortunately, there is no time to waste because our society is deteriorating a
little bit more with each passing day.
