San Francisco Is The Place To Be

I get the desire to go for security, but how did McAfee work for Intel? I think security is just too different to create any synergies. Security companies need to merge with each other. I get it though. Cisco needs to do something with the cash and where is the growth with networking gear?

Do they think it’s normal for people to break into cars and steal anything visible? That’s not how the rest of the country lives. SF really is its own bubble of a different reality.

It was very common in the late 1980’s in New York City to have unlocked cars, or “NO RADIO” signs on parked vehicles, to prevent break ins and thefts. I was at Columbia University visiting friends the summer of 1986 and saw rampant thievery as well as crack dealers all over mid-town selling product. It took a heavy hand and increased policing/jailing to clean up the city. It can be done, but only if the will exists, and everyone stop listening to the soft headed “boo-hoo’ers” lamenting how many criminals are finally being taken off the street.

NY in the 80’s was so bad they made a film called “Escape from New York” where the whole city had been turned into a giant prison. It seemed plausible at the time.

Yes, we need our own Rudy Giuliani (Before Version please)… LOL

Arresting criminals is racist though. That can’t happen in Woketopia.

You are too extreme.

Arresting over-represented minority criminals is racist. Putting more whites and Asians in jail is called justice served and people are absolutely fine with it.

For a long time, I do think it’s like the local auto glass “cartel” paying kids to just smash every window. Seen whole streetS of smashed windows but nothing ruffled through.

Maybe I been spending too much time in Oakland.

Um, how on earth can that be a thing for a political party that is:

  1. Anti private prisons
  2. Anti police

Do they really think this is a better solution than actual police?

Come on, brother, just shut up and sing will ya??? LOL

(My coworker was there, said concert was good)

My village was there too but most say it was not that great
:man_shrugging:t2:

My coworker loves him though. He cant do wrong. I believe she named one of her sons Eason…

.My brother in law is named Eason, after him. :laughing:

When you say your village, do you mean Chinese folks in general or that you are “same village” as Mr. Eason Chan?

People from our village in China, extended family members and their plus ones
