Good luck with your campaign to save unjustly maligned words. Don‘t bother trying to save “welch”, “gyp”, and “paddy wagon”. Those ones probably deserve their fate.

You seem to be using “obvious’ to mean “something that Kicker believes”. I still have no idea what point you think you were making. The topic was whether to rename places like Squaw Valley, and you pivoted to a meaningless insult with no context.
It’s not much of a conversation if your points exist only inside your own head. If you have a point to make, then take the time to make it clear. If you don’t have a point to make, shush.
You and I have VERY different viewpoints on what the critical matters facing this Country are so let’s agree to disagree.
This Country is becoming a victim of its own “Wokeness” especially when the politicians start to pander to it.

California cities rattled by prostitution, human trafficking in broad daylight as cops pin blame on new law
Cities in California are seeing prostitutes soliciting openly on the streets while accompanied by pimps, causing alarm among residents and condemnation from cops over a new law.
www.foxnews.com
It’s absolutely out of control and dangerous — not just for the sex workers but for the community," San Francisco Supervisor Hillary Ronen told the San Francisco Chronicle this week.
A road in the heart of San Francisco’s Mission District has become lined with prostitutes and pimps, prompting city officials to install barricades as residents sound off that not only do they feel less safe – especially at night – but that they are worried about the women working the streets.
"From the window right there, I’ll see three [people] ganging up on a girl," one San Francisco resident told the Chronicle while pointing toward a bay window that overlooks an intersection. "They’ll be hitting her."
A big sting arrested 380+ Johns last week. Top cop said they are doing something different this time around. Their not arresting & blaming the girls working the street this time. Gee, I wonder why Chief. Nope, their rescuing the women(girls) because they can't leave because of asshole Mr. Pimp, who manages them to pay off their debt to the Pimps boss. WTF up you guys.

MTS Has Known of Fletcher Concerns Since February
Last week, the spotlight turned to the Metropolitan Transit System after one of its former employees alleged agency managers fired her after she endured months of sexual harassment from Nathan Fletcher, the county supervisor and former chairman of MTS. The agency released a statement claiming that it had fired Grecia Figueroa for “performance concerns” and officials didn’t know until last week about her claims.
“The filing of Ms. Figueroa’s lawsuit on March 28, 2023 was the first time that MTS executive management was provided with the specific details of Ms. Figueroa’s allegations,” the statement read.
That’s not the full story. The lawsuit did have many specific details about what Figueroa says occurred but MTS staff had known for six weeks that a complaint about sexual harassment and assault involving Fletcher was coming. Wednesday, Voice of San Diego obtained the demand for records letter Figueroa’s lawyer sent to both MTS and Fletcher Feb. 17.
It was pretty specific: It listed her potential legal claims against Fletcher and MTS addressing them directly “including allegations that YOU: (1) discriminated against MS. FIGUEROA; (2) sexually harassed MS. FIGUEROA; (3) sexually assaulted MS. FIGUEROA; and (4) retaliated against MS. FIGUEROA because she complained or otherwise protested against sexual harassment that was perpetrated against her;”
The board of directors of MTS is meeting this morning for a special closed session. The acting chair, Whitburn, has said he will press for an independent investigation.
At least one board member is not pleased with how information has been coming out.
“I’m deeply concerned that MTS may have known about this in Feb. 17 and yet I found out about it in the media. We’re going to address that [Thursday] morning and find out why. I know I’m not the only board member who has the same concerns,” said Marcus Bush, a City Councilman in National City and member of the board of MTS.

Not to be outdone by the legitimately mentally ill in CA, the elites in CA want you to hold their beer as they compete in "California Crazy". Chesa Boudin did his part in the shittification of SF. His genius woke idea that drug dealers shouldn't be arrested as many of them were human trafficking victims coerced into the business has created a McMansioin housing boom in Honduras. Obviously, this and the rest of his complete failure as the SF DA qualified him for Executive Director at the new Criminal Law and Justice Center at UC Berkeley. The biggest shock to me is that this story was broken by the SF Chronicle. There are cracks in the unholy alliance. I hope Chesa is in a safe space.This is just crazy.. dude wants an abortion.

Reality Makes a Cameo at the San Francisco Chronicle
Michael Shellenberger (tweet source follows)
In 2021, San Francisco’s infamously lenient former District Attorney, Chesa Boudin, warned against arresting and prosecuting the Honduran drug dealers that crowd the city’s downtown sidewalks on the theory that many of them were human trafficking victims coerced into the business. It’s a claim that has become a talking point of radical activists, and drug dealers’ lawyers routinely use it in court to get their clients off the hook. Last year, I reported that Boudin’s human trafficking claim was specious, and now, in a blockbuster two-part series last week, two San Francisco Chronicle reporters, Megan Cassidy and Gabrielle Lurie, further debunk that claim. The two traveled to the tiny village in Honduras where most of San Francisco’s drug dealers come from. There, dirt roads lead to sparkling new mini-mansions owned by the families of the Tenderloin’s drug dealers, emblazoned with the logos of San Francisco’s professional sports teams: the Giants, the 49ers, the Warriors. A teenager was financing one mansion under construction. Dozens of drug dealers interviewed by the Chronicle’s reporters told them they had never heard of anyone trafficked. One dealer laughed at the idea, and told the Chronicle that the claim was just a defense strategy: “I told myself, ‘That’s what I’m going to tell my lawyer too,’ ” he said. “It went through my mind like, ‘I’m going to tell my lawyer they’re going to kill my family.’ ” The Sinaloa and New Jalisco Generation cartels, which dominate San Francisco’s drug trade, don’t need to force anyone to sell drugs in the Tenderloin and SoMa, because the work is so lucrative — as I reported a year ago, dealers can make up to $1,000 a day. This too, is born out by the Chronicle’s reporting: dealers told Cassidy and Lurie they can make $350,000 a year doing it. “San Francisco gives me the money, the free money,” one dealer told the two reporters. “San Francisco is my city.” Dealers told the Chronicle something else that’s obvious to anyone paying attention: San Francisco’s well-intentioned sanctuary protections are being exploited by Honduran dealers to keep them out of jail and the drug market open for business. “The law, because they don’t deport, that’s the problem,” one dealer told the reporters. “Many look for San Francisco because it’s a sanctuary city. You go to jail, and you come out.” That’s precisely the case that San Francisco Supervisor Matt Dorsey made when he proposed a carve-out to the city’s sanctuary laws to allow for the deportation of fentanyl dealers. For that, San Francisco progressives vilified him. Public Defender Mano Raju depicted Dorsey’s proposal as a racist attack on immigrants, invoking, once again, the human trafficking myth. This has been the pattern in San Francisco politics: call anyone who acknowledges the obvious realities of the city’s transnational drug trade a bigot. Mayor London Breed was called “racist” merely for publicly noting the well-known fact that many of the city’s dealers are from Honduras, and pressured into apologizing. Given the depth of the Chronicle’s reporting, dismissing the paper’s findings with such cynical smears will be harder. But that isn’t stopping the coalition of activists that has been shielding the cartel from the police for years from trying. In any other city, a report like this might radically change the political dynamic. But in San Francisco, the political rot is so deep that it’s hard to be confident that anything could dislodge it.
