Street Lamps falling as San Francisco streets flooded with urine
One of the great things about San Francisco is that people always have a place to go the bathroom. Every street is a toilet. Don't believe me? Just check out the San Francisco human waste map.
Now SF is in the news again.
Concerns about San Francisco’s decaying light poles were ignited Monday night after one corroded by urine toppled onto a car, narrowly missing the driver. The three-story-tall lamp post at Pine and Taylor streets snapped around 6:30 Monday and landed on a nearby car, almost crushing the driver. No one was injured.
A perfect storm of conditions rusted out the base of the pole, San Francisco Public Utilities Commission officials say, and caused it to fall. At the time, the lamp post, which was already old, was damaged by urine and weighed down by an oversized banner.
“We believe there was some contribution of dog or human urine on the base of the pole,” PUC spokesman Tyrone Jue said. “It has actually been an issue for us in the past. We encourage people and dogs alike to do their business in other places, like a proper restroom or one of our fire hydrants, which are stronger and made out of cast iron.”
Urine accelerates the corrosion of the metal base of street poles, he said.
Despite the hedging of the PUC spokesman, the problem seems clear: people who live in San Francisco aren't toilet-trained.
It's all part of the collapse of the civil society. In suburbs, where people still have common morality, men exposing their genitals and urinating in public would be unthinkable. In San Francisco and other cities, it's the norm. San Francisco treats a morality issue as a "maintenance" problem. And that itself is part of the problem.
Why people pay millions to live in a city others literally treat like a toilet is beyond me.
