I hope everyone in this thread talking about feeling unsafe understands they can leave San Francisco. Lived in the Tenderloin for almost 4 years now and this type of discussion always fills my throat with bile. Haven’t posted on HN for a long time but wanted to emphasize how little I think of this rhetoric. “Progressive policies”? Use your words.

@cosmicexplorer I just donated some money this weekend to help tihs kid and her grandmother escape the Tenderloin. Supervisor Matt Haney is in cloud cuckoo land, the local politicians are ideological idiots. This is a disaster for the D party (I'm a registered Democrat).

Kids shouldn't be growing up in streets littered with dead and dying addicts shooting up while drug dealers hover over them. It is an absolute disgrace. https://twitter.com/DTenderloine
