    EastCoastBtm reacted to + BOZO T CLOWN in Senate staffer filmed amateur gay porno in hearing room!   
    Bozo would pay big bucks to watch a porn flick with young 3-named Aidan and seasoned George Santos.
    Perhaps the Federal Dept of Corrections could arrange for them to share a prison cell where the video would be filmed. 
    I'm not sure how the logistics would work since they are both obviously hungry bottoms.

    you forgot to mention obesity as one of the reasons of America's decline, how it's clearly linked to poverty, and also, the fact that many regions of the country look like 3rd world countries.

    These threads constantly attacking cities and their problems are ridiculous in their premise.  The real question, which is too political and really can't be debated - Why is America in decline?  
    Unemployed, unhoused, many drug addicts, and people with a whole host of problems gravitate towards cities because cities are the only locations with a high level of concentrated services that support their needs - government support, addiction treatment, healthcare, shelters, food banks, numerous churches.   I wonder why these people aren't moving to small towns and the suburbs en masse?  Because there is little to no help for them there. 
    My mother lives in Brunswick County, NC - a largely rural county in southern NC with large snowbird and vacation home population and one of the lower poverty rates in the state.  Low and behold poor people with problems still exist even there and shocker, Republicans run a large portion of county government.  Most 'services' are provided through churches.  Trust me.  If small towns offered everything a big city does in the way of support services, they too would have similar problems and be overwhelmed.  
    So can we please stop with the veiled political discussions about the 'Decline of [[fill in the blank Democrat run city]]' masked as some genuine intellectual discussion about the decline of cities?  Its pathetic and this website has been so much better off with the removal of political trolling by a few people desperate to sound relevant.

    I no longer live in the City but still watch the San Francisco evening news and I think we get a different mix of stories than the networks broadcast to the rest of the country.  We do see the homeless problems well documented, but we also see the tremendous range and number of groups and individuals using their time and talents to help the unhoused.
    The City itself has lots of programs, but no one believes they could or should do everything.  They tried setting up a drug use/education/treatment center but backed off because of liability issues.  They're trying to get a private organization to take on the challenge.
    There's a major church in the Tenderloin that provides a wide range of services starting with food.  There are dozens of food banks.  There are organizations providing clothing, health/dental/vision services, hygiene support, family counseling, financial and employment support and, if I recall, there was a veterinarian going around checking on pets.  There are also individuals going out on the streets to contact homeless folks with offers of help.  One guy built a portable charging device and goes through the homeless areas offering phone charges.
    No doubt homelessness is a big story but, in my opinion, the bigger story is the number of folks reaching out to help.  It brings a ray of hope, rather than a cloud of despair.

    I guess it's possible that some folks don't want to hear what's right with San Francisco and prefer to hear about decay instead of renewal.  I'm sorry their heads are filled with sad stories and I hope they will one day notice the good things that are happening.  There's a lot to see.

    And of course this isn't a broad overgeneralization about city and urban dwellers versus the rest of America.  The suburbs and rural areas are apparently shining examples of how Americans should treat each other.
    @nate_sf and @mike carey - This thread has turned political.  Please lock it down.

    I've been monitoring this thread, as I expect has @mike carey. It's definitely veering towards politics, and has been on a number of occasions. I'm OK with leaving it up as it has not become explicitly political, though I'll admit I'm tired of hearing the same old tropes over and over again. I'd be more inclined to lock it up just because everyone has already said their piece, and I'm not sure what more is to be said. That is the reason I've stopped engaging in this thread myself.
