You could actually enforce the laws and put people in safe jails with better living conditions than they have now, outside the city limits. It seems like being more and more lenient is not a solution to a problem getting worse and worse.
Put homeless people in jails? For being homeless?
Honestly, I hope some homeless people shit in the mailbox of people suggesting such "solutions".
I prompted GPT-2 with the headline and date: Is the San Francisco Sh tuation Out of Control? Originally posted on November 18, 2019 9:30 am It continued: We may be the "parking hell" of San Francisco, but at least we're predictable about it. Just like how we've been screaming for a protected bike lane all across the city, and it still can't be found. Well, we're not going to have a protected bike lane in 9 months bec…
Funny it should mention Edmund Kemper: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edmund_Kemper
OK, how about "Uber for toilets"? Clean a toilet, get paid. Cameras and machine learning to check what a clean and dirty toilet look like. Sign up, and you get access to cleaning supplies and can turn the hose on. Works like retrieving dockless scooters.
I really don't get it.

I stopped replying because it's just classic entitled NIMBY-ism happening here. You're not going to get through to them.
I think it's entirely reasonable to not want human feces and strung out addicts IMBY.
More broadly, the San Francisco livability crisis is out of control. Poop is only a visible and easily disagreeable symptom of the broader problem. The local government can patch symptoms of the problem but some of them (housing, mental health, opioid epidemic) are state-level or national problems that the local government have very little power or ability to solve. Some of the law and order issues are issues the loc…
EDIT: RE downvotes, shame on me for not being familiar with SF politics, I guess. It is, after all, the center of the universe. (◔_◔)

I’m looking at the data portal and at least the last 300 waste complaints have no details (details field just says “Human/Animal waste” or is empty) - how did you figure out if they’re dog poop or misclassified? Edit: E.g this one https://sf311.org/track-case?ref=11716075&email=
Look at the mobile uploads. They have photos attached

I know you think this seems very logical, sane - but you have a tell "outside city limits" - you want these people rounded up and bused out. it's not a solution. Sane policing, treatment programs, and massive development is the solution.
Out of curiosity why is that not a solution? Why is it inherently better for them to live on the streets of SF than someplace with running water and electricity? It's also obviously better for the citizens of SF to not have to deal with human feces, dirty needles and massive amounts of property crime (at the least). There's tons of empty space in the US, it seems reasonable to move people who are breaking the law, ca…
(there's gotta be a word for that effect)

That’d be great if San Francisco had enough police to monitor for anything. As it is, drug deals happen in broad daylight on Market St anyway because nobody’s gonna stop them.
Even if you had everything monitored, you still have a drug problem.

for that you really need to have the toilets to begin with. SF, and in general American cities, have no public toilets ( i mean the number they have is just a noise around 0).
