A skateboard shop on Melrose? Huh, I thought skateboards were useless wooden toys for broke a$$ losers. I used to get chased by rent-a-cops for being a filthy skater . Now it's a boutique industry? And said owner is now "carrying a gun to work, for safety ". Wow, what a unique and novel concept. He's definitely an innovator. I wonder how a humble skate shop owner has the local political connections to access his rights? I doubt the plumbers, electricians, and lowly maintenance staff in the area could get permission to carry concealed in the same area. Of course, they probably aren't living lives worthy of defending. F U kalifornia. As your former resident, I can honestly say I don't miss you much.
 
Residents and business were fleeing NY and CA because of high taxes and high cost of living.
Then more residents fled the congested cities because of Covid.
They did not worry about crime too much as the violence was largely confined to the gang bangers shooting up their own neighborhoods.
When the violence and crime spreads to the suburbs, more residents will move away.
Soon there will be no one left to pay the taxes to support all the socialist programs.
 
Good. I hope their neighborhoods burn to the ground. The elitists with gates and walls are the biggest reason for the decline of the once great state of California. bubblegum 'em all back to the bubblegumhole from whence they came.

Before long, all the major cities will be like Detroit. But, TPTB are not worried. There's always federal money to be had.

Fed will be happy to print and stimulate.
 
I dont think violent crimes are creeping into wealthier communities, many of those people might want to defund the police but they also have the money to pay for private security and elaborate home security systems. Their sense of personal safety is skewed and will always be as long as they are rich.
During the 80's and early 90's San Francisco had private policing districts. Private security with powers of arrest!
They were paid for by the community to keep crime out of their neighborhoods! The rich could afford more and better security!
I see that as the way this is going!
Think about it, The better neighborhoods of Portland and Seattle having their own private police to keep the homeless out! But hey they don't have to put up with those Racist Police anymore! DR

Does it come with a tax break for the curtailed services?
 
I read this stuff, and I am reminded of some of my former business travel to third-world locations, precautions people took, and even how are homes are designed with walls and gates facing the street.


People have to begin understanding that elections have consequences. When you vote these buffoons in don't be upset when crime rises. The funny thing is all of these idiots are doing what they said they would do, and have done it. Being weak on crime and criminals is just what SHEEP. do, and the wolves know it. As we all know the wolves will always take advantage of the SHEEP, that's why they are wolves.
 
….The dems will never do such things because they are too busy chasing rainbows and unicorns. They have their hearts set on this net zero carbon stuff so the world doesn't end in, 10 years now is it?

Laughing into my coffee.

Just Googled my way down a short rabbit hole on the links to restaurant website. Stuck up , northern California fart sniffing hippie royalty. Probably 3rd generation Lefty blue bloods. The titles that a Chef ( which I respect) , a bartender and a restaurant manager have assigned themselves is pure comedy gold. Any one with the time should make a bogus reservation or simply send them a snarky email.
A further search shows their neighborhood to be crime ridden, but with the disclaimer that actual strongarm robbery is rare. This must be the new wokeness dismissing "civility crimes " as being tolerable.

Oh San Francisco, you make me laugh.
Would be interesting if their patrons ate and walked out without paying. Stating, your prices made me uncomfortable. What would the owners do? Calling people with guns obviously isn't an option.

That was before Ridiculousness, now it is entrepreneurial.

And of course now they're apologizing. The left always reacts with emotion and then eventually starts realizing that maybe it wasn't a good idea.
