To be fair, the post in question:
In downtown SF the degenerates gather like hyenas, spit, urinate, taunt you, sell drugs, get rowdy, they act like they own the center of the city…You can preach compassion, equality, and be the biggest lover in the world, but there is an area of town for degenerates and an area of town for the working class. There is nothing positive gained from having them so close to us. It’s a burden and a liability having them so close to us. Believe me, if they added the smallest iota of value I’d consider thinking different, but the crazy toothless lady who kicks everyone that gets too close to her cardboard box hasn’t made anyone’s life better in a while.
I hate the contemporary pastime for witch hunts against the bad-think, but that strikes me as a pretty distasteful post. YMMV
- BillinghamJ 10y agoTo be honest, I fully agree with his post.

- darkengine 10y agoDistasteful, perhaps (I would question his use of the word "degenerate"). His phrasing is clearly warped by some long-building anger over a worsening situation. I don't think it's a fire-worthy offense regardless.
- scarmig 10y agoWe can agree to disagree about how distasteful it is. So long as we promise not to attempt to get each other fired ;)

- scarmig 10y agoAwesome. I was looking through HN formatting options to find something like this.
