Occupy SF accused of Ferry Building thefts, filth

Ferry Building merchants and managers are fed up with the mayhem that has come with the nearby Occupy SF encampment.

A spike in shoplifting, break-ins and reports of abandoned human waste — and a reported drop in foot traffic — has management fuming about the Justin Herman Plaza encampment. There even are reports of occupiers using the building’s restrooms as washrooms — with folks taking sponge baths from toilets.

And last Monday, eight men were allegedly escorted out of the building after they attempted to use the bathrooms wearing nothing but their boxer shorts.

Property manager Jane Connors has written two letters to The City, one sent Nov. 1 and the other sent Monday. In both, she highlighted merchant complaints and asked police to increase their presence at the building. But that hasn’t happened.

Expected diseases and infestations are already breaking out at most “Occupy” demonstrations. Some new, nasty ones, too. It's only a matter of time.

Why would the leftists of San Francisco think it odd that people would bathe in the toilets?

Hmmm... I was in San Francisco in September. Down at Fisherman’s Wharf (went to Aliotos for anniversary)

Sounds about the same now as then. I wish I would have taken pictures of all the bums urinating in the street and screaming at people because they were having their parkbench sleep interrupted.

San Francisco, at least near the Wharf, is a filthy toilet hole. I had to tell my wife this was the last time we would be going there.
