    Flee or shoot.

    I really wish you'd get this -- especially you, Ken.

    I was homeless on the streets of San Francisco for nearly 9 1/2 years.

    The SFPD laughed in my face 20 years ago when they shot off their mouths about how I'd solve the problem (as they wrote me a ticket for not liking where I was sleeping), and I told them my solution THEN involved closing Golden Gate Park, rounding us all
    up, and turning us over to the National Guard.

    You don't get it.

    You really don't get it.

    It isn't a matter of lack of consequences.

    There's only two deterrents left in the criminal justice system: Prison rape and death.

    And for many homeless people and/or people who find prison or jail a rite of passage or a badge of honor, you have no prayer short of shooting them.

    Nut up or shut up.

    All of you.

    Mike

    When I'm in the position of making that choice, I will make a choice.

    Some of us think you already are and don't realize it.
