No shit. I live a block away and never see any excitement. Careful what you wish for, I guess.

If you are white, mostly, unless ALL the other white people in this town are trying to hail cabs on a bad day.

The “look privileged” part is totally irrelevant, since all “black” people look, to cab drivers, like people who might, according to crime statistics, shoot them in the back of the head for $20.

yeah guess it started from gestalt. i was there, but was one of the last people to leave so i didn’t even notice shit (also too preoccupied by trying to get a 24pack before 2am). but i heard one fight broke up into 6 & someone got stabbed??

I was standing outside of Kilowat when all this went down. I heard what I thought was Gestalts window break followed my a massive amount of people spilling out into the street. Multiple fights, cars driving into people, A GUY RUNNING AROUND THE STREET WITH A SNOW SHOVEL LOOKING FOR THINGS TO HIT! Total madness. Ten of the most intense minutes of my life.

Yes, cabs are really easy to hail in this town (if you are white and look privileged.)

Some guy was swinging a large plastic shovel around. Knocked one guy out, but hit multiple people. Time to get some cops out for the 2AM club.

I dont understand this “cabs suck in SF” argument.

I have NEVER had a problem hailing a cab just about anywhere.

However, I see lots of people DOING IT WRONG.

1) standing on the wrong side of the street. the cab isnt going to flip a u-turn for you.

2) standing in an intersection or other place where stopping is not feasible

3) standing in a mob with 20 other people trying to wave at cabs

Really, its NOT that hard to get a cab in this town.

#3 would only be possible if there were cabs available.
