The situation out on the streets in San Francisco has been alarming (to say the least) for long enough now that it’s almost become a footnote in the wreckage that the Biden administration has left in its wake, particularly when combined with the pro-crime, anti-police impulses of Gavin Newsom’s governorship. By this point, you’ve all seen the stories and we’ve covered them here often. Homeless encampments clog up the streets while addicts overdose on the public sidewalks.
Petty crimes combined with some that are far more serious have plagued formerly prime real estate. But now there are signs of a rapid transformation taking place. San Francisco Mayor London Breed, taking advantage of a recent Supreme Court ruling regarding ordinances forbidding public camping, has been cracking down on the encampments and clearing them out. But what could have brought on this sudden change of heart after the problem had been festering for years? Could it have something to do with the upcoming elections? (Associated Press)
Sidewalks once teeming with tents, tarps and people passed out next to heaps of trash have largely disappeared from great swathes of San Francisco, a city widely known for its visible homeless population.
The number of people sleeping outdoors dropped to under 3,000 in January, the lowest the city has recorded in a decade, according to a federal count.
And that figure has likely dropped even lower since Mayor London Breed — a Democrat in a difficult reelection fight this November — started ramping up enforcement of anti-camping laws in August following a U.S. Supreme Court decision.
The first thing to point out about these latest figures is that they clearly show that the homelessness problem in the City by the Bay has not magically gone away. Far from it, in fact. The same federal study that generated the figures linked above showed that homelessness in the San Francisco area actually rose by 7% in January of this year. The difference is that the homeless people and migrants have simply been moved elsewhere to areas where they won’t be seen by so many tourists.
But why now? It turns out that people have grown fed up with the swarming homeless population and London Breed is currently in the fight of her political life. Due to a recent change in the city’s election calendar, Breed will be running for another term in the general election this year, rather than an off-year election when turnout would normally be lower. She’s drawn multiple challengers, including Mark Farrell who served as interim mayor for six months in 2018. The polls are not looking promising for Breed so she obviously felt that something drastic might be required to save her from an unceremonious exit from office. […]
