Ed Lee is just a tool. The entire city is dysfunctional: city counsel, bureaucracy, police department, sheriff's department, school system....
A recall would just be a distraction. The real issue is Obama's insane and damaging policy of open borders and non-enforcement of immigration laws.
Sanctuary cities would still be a seditious problem, but without Obama's open borders, they wouldn't be hosting repeat deportees.
Considering that Ed Lee has already been re-elected and that the majority of San Franciscans have supported Sanctuary City status- a recall not only would be a distraction- it would go nowhere.
Sheriff Mirkarini (sp)- he is more likely to lose his job over this.
As far as everything else in San Francisco- we are in shock about this horrible murder- but the city is functioning just fine.
Lights are on, buses are running, tourists are swarming into the city- biggest problem we have is too many people wanting to live in San Francisco.
As someone who frequently does business in and socializes with friends in San Francisco, I find the city to be in general a pit. The numerous homeless people cause it to stink of urine and feces. The city planning is abominable. Traffic is a nightmare. Parking is inadequate. And the tech hipsters are obnoxious. There are still many wonderful things about the city, but I don't see it as functioning just fine.
Well then you haven't seen much of the City.
We do have lots of homeless people- concentrated largely in a few areas. In my neighborhood we have one. I would love to end the homeless problem- but so far no one has come up with a winning solution.
City planning is pretty good- all things considered- I like the building that is going on South of Market and passed the ball park- speaking of which- been to AT&T Park? Fantastic place- we all love it.
Which city the size of San Francisco doesn't have 'traffic'? The reality is other than downtown, or at rush hour, traffic is pretty smooth. I can drive clear across town in 20 minutes.
Parking is inadequate- we have more cars than our city will really support. Build more parking garages? Where? So those of us who live here figure it out- we know where the parking garages are, and don't try to park on the street in China Town or North Beach.
The Tech hipsters are the latest wave of people coming to San Francisco- everyone has thought the newcomers are obnoxious. My only complaint is that they make tons of money and are driving up real estate prices- which most places would consider a good thing, but hard on average folks.
But the City continues to run just fine.
Like I said- our number one problem is we have TOO many people who want to live here.
Because San Francisco is just that cool.
I lived in San Francisco for a few years, and then moved out because I was sick of it.
The NUMBER ONE problem is the idiotic ideology of the most of the residents and their government.
