Despite claims to having its homeless situation on the mend and under control, San Francisco is a bigger hellhole than ever.
According to Fox News, overdose deaths have hit a historic record high:
The San Francisco Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (OCME) showed in its latest report that the city had the most accidental drug overdoses ever recorded in a single year, many of which involved fentanyl.
The report — released on the OCME’s website Thursday — shows the city had 752 accidental overdoses recorded during the first 11 months of 2023. The highest number of accidental overdoses recorded for an entire year was in 2020, with 726 reported by the OCME.
With a little more than two weeks left in 2023, the number of accidental overdoses is expected to rise by the end of the year.
Seems the situation is not under control, it's worse than ever, and all those "support" groups for the homeless and all those "services" for the drug-addicted that the city has laid out billions for, have brought more overdoses than ever.
As Lee Ohanian at the Hoover Institution has noted:
Since fiscal year 2016–17, San Francisco has spent over $2.8 billion on homelessness, and the city's politicians remain seemingly baffled, year after year, as the number of homeless in the city skyrocket, as opioid overdoses kill more than COVID-19, and as the city has become nearly the most dangerous in the country.Since 2016, the number of homeless in San Francisco has increased from 12,249 to 19,086, which comes out to about $57,000 in spending per homeless person per year. With a total population of about 860,000, roughly 2.2 percent of San Francisco residents are homeless, which is over 12 times the national average.

There’s hope to clear those streets then.
100,000+ ODs nationally/yr. But ARs are THE problem. Well, and any other privately possessed firearms. No, really.
WINNING!
Addition by Subtraction.
“ Since 2016, the number of homeless in San Francisco has increased from 12,249 to 19,086, which comes out to about $57,000 in spending per homeless person per year.”
That’s above the average middle class salary.

Now there's something to cheer about.
Proving it’s all about graft.
They would do well to distribute free fentanyl.
A self licking ice cream cone.
Population reduction plan working beautifully. Convince teens to lop off body parts so they will finally commit suicide is also on target, as is keeping white women so traumatized by carbon dioxide and so fearful of pregnancy that aderal is continuouslt prescribed. And young woen, especially blacks, keep killing their own in the womb. It’s all working so beautifully. Shout out to hamas for oct 7th.
Satan is thinking big plans for next year. We’ll see.
It will get worse before it gets better. It will get better after it gets worse. Once they hit rock bottom things will turn around. I hate to say it but overdosing is not the worst way to die. They just go to sleep and never wake up. I would say save their life twice but after that maybe we should tell them goodbye.
No such thing as an accidental overdose.
There’s no way that the number of homeless is that small. It’s like a layer of homeless population superimposed on the regular population. It’s that way in cities all over California and all along the west coast. It’s a significant portion of the population. They keep building houses but the numbers of homeless increase. Who is living in those houses? Also have people noticed that the homeless are mostly white and black people? There are hardly any Asian or Hispanic homeless people. I noticed the numbers of black homeless people have been growing a lot in the last 4 years. Before that it was mostly white people.
Libtards plan to let as many people kill themselves as possible to help “alleviate” the problem.
Yikes. With attitudes like that our country is doomed and not just the fentanyl addicts.
Bring back the hangman and the Pauper Prisons. We'll also need new insane asylums for the politicians and the people who voted for them.
The real answer in the long run is a Jesus Revival and a casting out of the Devil and his demonic host.
