What happened at Locals Corner is NOT graffiti, it is vandalism. graffiti is not about screwing the small business person. In fact, there is a Graf artists code that would not allow the defacing of a property like Locals Corner. And also know that graffiti is hated throughout the world. Cities like NY have entire police squads with one purpose… Stoping grafittu. But you obviously don’t know that because you are an idiot. Your family, MeeNee and Funyun, would be proud of your stupidity.

not only that, but this place (and franchise) is now famous for vaguely racist discrimination. its vague yes, but anytime something real bad is vague — its still bad.

no other types of businesses are needed in the Mission? just overpriced food and cocktails?

some people are celebrating the vanishing of laundromats, obviously the ones with laundry at home (or who rely on some app). poor people are dirty anyway, right? plus they’re practically on their way out of SF …

isn’t it surprising how many people so deeply affected by the current ‘changes’ (i.e. destruction of community) are showing truly amazing self-restraint?

graffiti is done all over the world, no one cries about it … its a fact of urban life. you don’t like it? plenty of suburbs will take you back where you can bask in graffiti- and homeless-free sterility.

funny that you think “rich people” (whom i am not) see poor people and immediately see garbage and squaller. In fact, ALL PEOPLE see garbage, drunks, violence and disorder when there is garbage, drunks, violence and disorder.

The culture and the people of the mission are not going away, they (you!) are now sharing with other people that have just as much right to live there as asshole idiots like you. FYI, you sound more racist and judgmental than any “Rich White Tech” person that you loath. Funny how stupid people(like you) are always the meanest and most scared of changes.

Also funny that you think vandalism is a solution. Maybe getting rid of people like you in the mission is the first step to making it a better place than it has ever been.

If you’d rather have empty shit hole businesses, passed out drunks, heaps of garbage, graffiti and young people shooting each other on your doorstep, then maybe you’d better move somewhere else now because guess what the Mission is indeed changing, and definitely for the better.

I moved to the Mission (15) years ago, after living in the Western Addition for (12) years. Now called Nopa thanks to people like you, who need fetishize where they live.

I moved to the Mission because of the people and I saw the beauty and the soul and the problems, as just that…problems. Believe it or not, there were and are many people working on the problems, ie: non profits that are being kicked out all over the city and the local organizers protesting Local’s Empire.

People who disagree with you, don’t see rich white people, with no connection with the neighborhood, taking over the Mission as solving anything.

Admit it Schlub you moved to the Mission because it was “cool” and then you realized, in your eyes it is just “full of shit and garbage (ie:poor people)”.

And the neighborhood is gentrifying exactly as you had hoped because you won’t LOVE the Mission as we all do exactly as it was, until it is another Noe Valley.

OK, Schlub do you work for Twitter or Facebook or Dropbox

Wrong.

You continue to impress (kidding, you are an idiot). I live in the neighborhood, and would much rather have a busy street filled with people who want to spend money in my “hood” than walk over shit and garbage. You choose violence and vandalism over acceptance. You are really representin’ da mission right homie! (kidding again, you are an idiot)

I do understand that your feelings come from fear, and understand the emotions. You are watching a place that you love change. What you can’t see is that it is changing for the better – not for the worse.

I can’t wait to comment on another of your idiotic posts. The funny thing is that i just realized I am probably talking to a 10th grade kid.

there are people different than you out there.

even the owner admitted naming it that was a bad idea.

congrats to you living there prior to 2003 though. there’s not too many that can say they’ve been there that long.

Wise sons is packed with who exactly?

Were you at the last Sunday streets? There was no room for bikes anymore because of all the looky-lou’s pointing there camera at things instead of actually participating. I can imagine all the Facebook posts “…Chillin in da Mission”. “OMG I was there too!…”

Soon Sunday streets and the Mission will be just all you self absorbed, oblivious cultural parasites with nothing to say to each other except what the next cool place you want to move to.

Yes, shame on Wise Sons, they chose 24th St so they could make a boat load of money on day one. They knew they could sign a long cheap lease and would gentrify the neighborhood to ridiculous levels by their presence, as you have testified by your opinion that the neighborhood is better now that white, sheltered people feel safe to jog and eat there.

Rich techies and people with disposable income would have found Wise Sons where ever they opened. And if you don’t think Wise Sons understands why locals hate “locals”corner you really are a schlub. And they know they are no better.

Keep Hoods Yours hit Vara Apartments on 15th. Yeah! I have to suffer living next to those f* a-holes that I have met coming out of that place while walking there dogs. A great family that were my neighbors, were lucky enough to get a BMR rental at VARA and they hate it! They are paying 1/4 of what everyone else is paying and they say said if they could afford it they would live anywhere else but there. And Techies are climbing the walls to get in. Can you wrap your brain around that Schlub?

I would love to see Wise Sons next. These real local kids obviously feels powerless. So let Wise Sons spend a $100 dollars to pay someone to clean it.

The graffiti done on it is more than offensive – it’s criminal and hopefully these assholes will be caught.
