Please provide a cite for your claim as to San Francisco. Thanks.

What, you haven't heard of the problem on the streets of San Francisco? Seriously? I thought this was in the public consciousness by now.

Here you can see the shitstain all over. https://www.sfgate.com/local/article/map-street-sidewalk-poop-feces-311-report-waste-13278828.php

The data is compiled from people calling in and requesting the city clean it up. You know, to stop the spread of infectious diseases. Like just happened in China.

San Francisco is actually you know, somewhere where people shitting on the street isn't uncommon. This actually IS uncommon in middle America. That would literally make San Francisco an actual shithole. Just pointing that out for clarity.

So is this more of a problem in San Francisco than elsewhere? Without data it is just the next thing the media is telling you to worry about.

You can view the poop map yourself. Yes, it's a big problem in San Francisco. Other cities and towns don't have the problem of shitting in the streets.

I mean, that's fucking disgusting. Can you imagine walking down the street and seeing a human log sitting there, flies buzzing on it, stinking to high hell? And that's something that you see regularly.

You know why they call third world countries "shitholes"? It's because they don't use toilets and just shit wherever they like. The same as San Francisco.

I live in Saudi Arabia.

Just by the way, I was just reading the Seattle letters to the editor. Someone was complaining about people making poo on the streets. We need comparative numbers. Unless of course you simply believe what you are told.

The poop map comes from official San Francisco government statistics.

Yeah, Seattle has a shit on the streets problem too. In San Diego they had an outbreak of hepatitis caused by feces on the streets.

All these areas are run by progressives. You think there might be a correlation there?

Really does it? I am no expert. When I looked at it a month or so ago, I could see no attribution. That would be very interesting if true.

Now, how does SFO compare to other cities?

All US cities are run by Democrats. The largest with a Republican-dominated government is mighty Indianapolis. You are not complaining about cities run by progressives. You are complaining about all cities.

Oh, here is a story. The map was made by some lady using SF government data. From five years ago.

https://www.mercurynews.com/2018/02/28/san-francisco-poop-map-real-thing-or-a-rumor/

==eta 2== The "project, called Human Wasteland, is pretty exhaustive, listing reports made by individual 311 calls from 2008-2015." So 300 poops in a seven year period ending five years ago.

You really ought to check out this silly stuff before you post it.

The real estate company's map is based on current data. It was made by a company called Realtyhop. Look again and zoom in on the map: https://www.sfgate.com/local/article/map-street-sidewalk-poop-feces-311-report-waste-13278828.php

Dog feces are not the only type of poop we have to deal with, unfortunately. In many metropolitan cities, human waste is a big issue. It is the dark side of those cities that seem so great until you actually have to live there. Poop is not only a major environmental pollutant, but it also indicates the cleanliness of a city, which is a huge part of a city’s brand. No wonder that cities around the world, including New York, Madrid, and London, all have their ways of dealing with the poop crisis, such as enforcing poop fines and launching sidewalk cleaning programs. Unfortunately, we still keep seeing the word “poop” in the headlines, and we could not help but ask “has the poop crisis reached a whole new level?” To answer this question and further understand the poop crisis, we looked into 311 poop complaints in three major U.S. cities[1] — Chicago, New York City, and San Francisco.

The SF government keeps a portal where such data can easily be exported. That's why we know how filthy their city is. Here's the fucking raw data. https://datasf.org/opendata/

Yes the mochimachine site is offline. The site was taken down specifically because people kept linking to it to show how much shit was on the streets of San Francisco. This in no way discredits the shit on the streets. In fact, it does the opposite. Evidently letting the world know the truth is a big problem.

Look, people who live there know they have issues with shit on the streets. Why all the denial? SF is run by the far left, i.e. progressives. If they do this on the small scale, what do you think they'll do if they ever capture a national office, as Sanders is threatening to do?

Wonderful, Wonderful!

Excellent cites. As the keeper of the only list of mass killings in the US I am pleased to see that someone else has (or had) the odder habit of collecting poop reports.

This is great. Have an upvote.
