My theory is San Francisco evangelists have Stockholm syndrome. I stayed on Market St. last summer: Saw two car break-ins before I even got a chance to park at the hotel, got harassed by tweakers every time I stepped outside, watched 3 shoplifters waltz out the door while talking to a disenchanted police officer at the Target, caught a man shooting up on the steps of the federal building ... but I didn't see any human biowaste so I guess I should be thankful.

I've lived in rough neighborhoods before but even I was clutching my pearls! I can handle gangsters and cold shoulders, but this is another breed of degenerate. They're like zombies, slowly losing humanity!

The caveat being I met many kind folks too, homeless or otherwise.

[edit: I now remember I actually did see human biowaste.]
