‘Aggressive’ homeless camp sweeps begin in San Francisco!⛺️🤞

[Christopher Hitchens]

How many homeless have you taken in? Or what volunteering have you done to help the cause?

I haven’t taken any in because I don’t want my shit stolen but I have given money and food before and I’ve helped them when I was in NA/AA. There is a lot of homeless and former prisoners there.

i wish they would sweep the frigging homeless out of my town too

folks complain about hookers and drug dealers, but they have jobs and don't sleep under my porch...

What’s wrong with hookers and drug dealers? There would be no fun without them 😜🤣

Oh yea and I pay taxes so I guess that’s helping them in a way.

I hear they love stealing Hot Pockets and Jellybeans, so probably wise on your part to keep them locked out.

Come on Bu-Bu I thought I was getting through to you and you are starting up again. Throwing hate my way is not going to quiet the demons


That’s a good question actually. Im not sure. I know one person got a spot in a shelter so maybe they are going there. Hopefully this will push some of them to get clean so they can get there life back together and they can get a place and not shoot all their money in their vein.


lol you are literally voting for a traitor that put his in fucked up ability to not admit defeat ahead of the constitution and the country. You have the gall to pretend you are a patriot. Get fucking real dude.


It’s aggressive compared to what they were doing before, which was nothing.


Long time no see Goat. When did you crawl back out of your mama’s ass?

Said it 100 times, get a job.

Lol at retard saying he pays taxes.

"They threw out my clothes!"

Good. Please reintegrate back into society with a shower.

“Very aggressive” homeless encampment sweeps, as recently touted by Mayor London Breed, began Tuesday morning in San Francisco following a major U.S. Supreme Court ruling.

The Standard witnessed aggressive enforcement action under the Central Freeway, carried out by police, the Department of Public Works, Department of Emergency Management, Homeless Outreach Team and San Francisco Fire Department.

Homeless people were not notified of the sweeps ahead of time, as has previously been the norm, according to a schedule of encampment clearings and a city official who was on the scene.

Tiffany Tannahill was watching over friends’ belongings when the sweep started on 13th Street. She said city workers showed up around 9:30 a.m.



Tannahill, who recently landed a homeless shelter bed, said she was given 15 minutes to gather all three of her friends’ belongings but was not allowed to disassemble and pack up the tent.

“One of the DPW workers started hollering past me, ‘I’m taking everything today,’ ” Tannahill said. “They were adamant that there wasn’t going to be enough time to pack up the tent.”

By 10:30 a.m., all city workers who were clearing the encampment had moved down the block, to the corner of 13th and Harrison streets.

Brandon Cunningham, the fire department’s incident commander at the scene of an encampment sweep near 13th and South Van Ness streets, told The Standard he was unsure whether people living at the site were notified beforehand. Tuesday’s schedule of encampment clearances, obtained by The Standard, does not list the location.


Cunningham said the Healthy Streets Operation Center, a multi-agency team that conducts encampment clearings, finished its scheduled morning operation early — so the team of officials decided to begin moving down 13th Street to continue clearing encampments.

“We’re trying to utilize the time that we had … instead of twiddling our thumbs for the next three hours,” Cunningham said. “We’re doing the general area.”

City staff have previously given notice to encampment occupants days before conducting a clearing.


Musical Interlude:



“London Breed, the mayor, Gov. Gavin Newsom says no more on the streets, no more encampments. No more. This is what it’s come down to. This is our laws,” the officer said.



Max Gunn and Kara Sullivan, who have been homeless in San Francisco for roughly two years, told The Standard the city threw away some of their clothes. Gunn said members of the Homeless Outreach Team told him there were no shelter beds available.

“They got my clothes,” Sullivan said. “They laughed at me and did a mocking New York accent and acted like they were tough.”

A spokesperson for the Department of Emergency Management disputed the individual’s account, saying everyone was offered shelter during Tuesday’s action.

The actions taken by the city likely stem from a routine court procedure finalized Tuesday. At the beginning of the month, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals overturned a local injunction that limited how aggressive the city could be in its sweeps, part of a lawsuit filed in 2022 by the Coalition on Homelessness. The appeals court overturned the injunction as a direct result of the Supreme Court’s decision which allows cities more power to clear encampments. On Tuesday, the appeals officially modified the injunction to be in line with June’s SCOTUS ruling.

Nisha Kashyap, an attorney representing the Coalition on Homelessness in the suit against the city, called the sweeps “alarming” and “unacceptable.”

“The city’s conduct blatantly violates the existing injunction against property destruction and disregards its own laws and policies that mandate advance notice and the provision of shelter and services,” Kashyap said in a statement Tuesday. “By ignoring the injunction, the city is not only acting unlawfully but also stripping people of their basic survival necessities, making it harder for them to exit homelessness.”

A statement from the mayor’s office said the city’s “street response will consist of offers of services and support on a daily basis, targeted encampment resolutions, and coordinated efforts to prevent re-encampments and new areas from being encamped.”



In a memo shared Tuesday by the mayor’s office, officials said they seek to prevent encampments from cropping up again once they have been cleared.

The city said smaller encampment clearings would be addressed by police and Public Works, working in tandem.

“District [police] station officers will conduct regular canvases of the areas to identify any encampments, and then work with Public Works staff to clear the areas,” the memo reads.

The memo also outlines the consequences homeless individuals may face if they continue to camp on the city’s streets and refuse shelter. These penalties include citations and possible arrest.

“The goal is not punishment, it is compliance,” the memo reads.

Good, Fuck em

 

[K.I.T.T.]

Aggressive? No. Aggressive would be sending in death squads to rid that city of habitual vagrants and set a real precedent for other potential sweeps...

Or, we take 25% of the income from anyone earning over $10 million per year and use that money specifically for solving the problem? Death squads wouldn't eliminate homelessness and couldn't possibly prevent it. Ever.

 

[Bruno Schulz]

Thanks hehe. I don’t know where that came from. I’m just creative, I got lucky because I choose to be lol.

I see where you are coming from. The thing is it is out of control and so is the theft. I was an opiate addict for like 3-4 until I realized I had to stop because I knew the road I was going down, I was heavy into benzos though, so I know what it’s like to be an addict. I just don’t see how letting these people do this, over 90% if not higher of these people are addicts, fentanyl and meth, and just letting them live on the street with no consequences doesn’t seem to be helping them. Nevermind all the benefits they get. It’s just you don’t go make it as comfortable as possible for an addict or they will never stop. Sure it sucks pushing someone off the sidewalk or arresting them and making them choose jail time or rehab but it has to be done I think. It’s like how Oregon recriminalized fentanyl and meth because the od’s were sky rocking because people who would be safe in jail are out using and dying. There is no “nice” solution to this and as you said when you are dopesick you’re not thinking like a normal person.

I totally agree. I'm just torn between my distaste for junkies and my hatred of yuppies. The former are redeemable, but the latter.....Idunno. It's a tough call. 😟

Idk what you’re talking about. Maybe copying what I say to sabu because you have no original thoughts Idk

i dunno what their issues are... they are probably just stick in the mud, unevolved, intolerant, holier than thou types
wait, they could be my mom....
Mom is that you?

ya, she's just judgemental as hell

You got a mom that’s a bit nuts? If so I feel the pain…

Good, Fuck em

I have more empathy because I know what it’s like to be addicted to something but ya know what, the whole “it’s just the drugs” thing to explain their behavior. I’m not sure I buy that because I was addicted and I didn’t do half the shit these homeless addicts tend to do. I don’t think it’s completely fair to blame all horrible savior on the drugs, we bring our own flaws and faults in personality to the drugs and the drugs just make them worse is my theory.

 

[Irishrepublic]

They're doing this in Dublin lately as well

 

[Denim Chicken]

Awww there goes your friends

 

[Christopher Hitchens]

Oh really? How come? New law or something?

 

[Fry_Swatter]

...So...

... People voted for this and now are SURPRISED that their beloved Democrats are flushing them out like the human waste they are for political gain?!?

...If you don't make 7 figures a year, then you are NOT a Democrat... If you make under 7 figures and still vote Democrat, then you are a minion tool and they will discard you too once your usefulness has run out...
