 TUESDAY MAY 16, 2017 UPDATE:

Serial Strong Arm Robber 
    Here's a first Rough Draft Sketch of the Suspect, as described above. 

  In reality, his hair is a bit shorter,  face a bit longer,  but the basic skin tone and body proportions are about right.   He also had a 'mini-hoodie' on his bright, white T-Shirt.

    He likes to put on his hoodie and 'crawl the walls' along store fronts as he stalks his targets for Strong Arm, Snatch & Grab Robberies.


     This is a First Draft Sketch that will be updated and become much more accurate as we keep adding info from witnesses, photos, videos to make the best, most accurate Sketch we can.  


  Thanks to everyone who's helped us so far.     


 May be living at local SRO Hotels or city housing units in the mission area, near 16th and Valencia Streets.

  HE IS VIOLENT.   DO NOT APPROACH HIM.

SATURDAY  -- October 15, 2016 UPDATE:

   The ZTE Phone stolen from the community advocate above, had Low Income Client Case Information and Photo Evidence of Crimes, to this Theft, may be transformed into a more serious felony, since it has documents we need for upcoming court appearances.  

     Very sad to have so much valuable information on a personal device and have it STOLEN out of your hands by Thieves that are plaguing our city.   WE MUST FIGHT BACK !


 Be Safe.   More photos and stories of other crime victims coming this week.   


Cheers!
SFAwareness Group Moderators


 We're going to post Posters about this theft and increase awareness of locals and tourists in the Mission about how rampant the thefts are.    Many of the Thieves live at local hotels and SRO Housing Units on Mission and 16th Streets.

We All Pay - Uber and Other Drivers' Misuse of Commercial Plates and Meter Space For Personal Use

Wednesday, January 14, 2015 - High Noon

        While checking out a cool S.F.F.D. Fire Truck parked in the red zone at the corner of Rondel & 16th Street, (where Esta Noche Cantina used to be, we saw an Uber Driver pull up and park in the Commercial Parking Only Yellow Zone, in front of El Cafetazo Cafe.  

     We took a picture and asked him about parking in a spot that is intentioned for commercial vehicles to come and go fast to do deliveries, loading and unloading.    He said, 'It's okay because I have commercial plates and that lets me park in any commercial zone like this.'   

     That sounds cool... but then we thought, wait a minute, if the intent of these spots is fast 'in and out' access to get goods and services into our local restaurants and shops, then what is the legitimate reason he is parking there, in fact ?

     Is he using the commercial space for bonafide commercial purposes, as intended or is he misusing or 'taking' that space, illegally for his own personal use, such as personal shopping or perhaps... eating a lunch at a nearby restaurant, but he doesn't want to pay for a real consumer parking spot... he'd rather slide by using a commercial space for personal stuff.

     It's our understanding that if a public servant uses city property for personal use, without legitimate approval,  it's considered to be 'an unlawful taking' or theft of city property.  

     If a caretaker uses a disabled person's car and placard to do personal shopping with, it's a criminal offense, like a kind of a fraud to use a valid thing to cover use of time or vehicles to do personal matters and errands with. It's a form of deception. 

  When people cheat like this, it tells us alot about their true underlying nature of their character and conduct 'when they think no one is watching'.   It's fun like babysitting bad spoiled children from afar.

    When the S.F.F.D. Firemen came over to their fire truck, we discussed slow emergency response times relative to increased number of amateur drivers for fire, who constantly block bike lanes, pull fast U-Turns,  leave 20 foot gaps in front and behind while sitting in traffic using their distractive devices and told the firemen the truth. 

    When our city is capable of STOPPING the renegades and regulation avoiders who are here en masse, clogging up our streets, stealing parking spaces and pissing off the entire town, slowing down all emergency responses and our normal local traffic & shopping patterns and flows --  we will NOT support using more tax money to buy more emergency response vehicles and personnel.   

    Why would any sane person support increasing the number of emergency vehicles and personnel on the road, not while we have ever increasing numbers of newcomer & other amateur drivers  IMPACTING OUR ABILITY TO MOVE FROM ONE PLACE TO ANOTHER QUICKLY & SAFELY, IN THE FIRST PLACE.

   Adding more emergency vehicles will just cause more conflict and delays. 

  When our city leaders cater to corporations that BLOCK OUR ABILITY TO SAVE LIVES QUICKLY and FAIL  TO ENFORCE OUR LAWS TO STOP THEM then we must replace our city leaders.

    They sucked up to the same global banks and corporations that are plundering our city and stealing local cash flows.     

   They are causing a clear and present threat and danger to our people walking on the streets.

   They steal from mom and pop shops who need affordable space and unimpeded parking and pedestrian traffic flows by using commercial spaces for personal errands and driving while distracted, as a habit that kills.

    We're putting in a call to SFMTA and City Hall to learn if it's illegal for anyone to use commercial plates, to avoid paying their fair share of parking fees. 

  Or when they are using them for their own personal or non-commercial purpose or some other use -- which is not the intended use, as expressed by local codes.

Wall of Shame - Mural in da Mission
   Stay tuned....   we think MANY VALID COMMERCIAL vehicles are now driving round and round the block, causing more pollution, traffic, delays and costs to us all.    

  Only because scores of amateur drivers like from Uber and perhaps Lyft, et al. are TAKING AWAY & MISUSING space and meter time that was NEVER INTENDED to used by them for their personal errand parking convenience, in the first place.


  WANT TO HAVE MORE FUN ?   TRY THIS:

   1.  Call up Uber & Lyft - ask them if it's Company Policy to allow Uber Drivers to Use Commercial Plates to use to park in Metered Commercial Yellow Zones to do their personal errands with ? 

   2.   Call up SFMTA - ask them if it's cool to have Uber vehicles parked in LOADING ONLY Yellow Zones while they run errands and go eat lunch down the street ?

   3.   Call up the San Francisco Board of Supervisors and Mayor Edwin Lee (aka Liar, liar, pants on fire, leave you to die in a bomb threat at city hall Mayor) - ask them:   

    Why Do You Let These Mega Corporations get away with grand theft, murder and causing over 5,000 local businesses and over 10,000 local residents become homeless in the past 3 years alone ?


       Why do you allow a climate to exist that results in over 3,000 Homeless children enrolled in schools to happen,  when there was only a few hundred, before Chase Bank & All These Global For Profit Monsters came to town starting in 2006-2007, to this very day.  

    SHAME ON YOU ALL !

      Why did you take away public bus lines on Valencia, spend a fortune on trees and bike lanes only to have Google Buses (often empty), Uber, Lyft and others come along and clog it all up and make it unsafe ? 

     They are over-running (aka Nazi Blitzkreig) our local mom and pops and local residents & existing public services and grass roots community groups (like in Our Bayview).   

    They continue to get away with this, only because of a general lack of protection and enforcement of laws that we wrote for our protection. 

Honor Given To Known Criminals
   To reduce harm, costs, risks and save lives and be locally prosperous, self-sufficient and independent of not from here banksters, corporations and bad higher government.

   Why Do You Honor Known Criminals Like Raymond Chow ?

      Ask them if they are Traitors or are they Honorable leaders ? 

    Ask them if they are going to admit they screwed up big time for short term personal, political and other gains by destroying the lives of over 10,000 San Franciscans who did no wrong, caused no harm.

  They were simply PUSHED OUT by renegade techies who do not respect locals, do not respect our traditions, customs, laws and ways of living.

  They are here to take, take, take and our current city leaders ARE GUILTY AS CHARGED.

   Gee, we sure wish the Honorable San Francisco Board of Supervisor Jane Kim would be OUR MAYOR & KICK ASS of all these carpet bagger, newcomer plunderers that our current Mayor kisses up to... 

What a piece of work Lee turned out to be. 

 His actions have spoken louder then his empty or much too late promises...  to many, it's a disgusting lack of honor or heart FOR THE PEOPLE.  


Bit Younger Jane Kim circa 2005
   JANE KIM TO THE RESCUE !?!?!

    We've watched her 'really grow up' these past few years and have gotten to know her and understand her better. 

    She's for real.  She's not for sale to greedy shortsided developers and carpet baggers from the East.      

    She has A HEART and IS VERY SMART and understands CIVIL RIGHTS.

    She WORKS WITH OUR PEOPLE, not making megabucks on the side harming them and making them become homeless.

   WE ARE BEHIND YOU 100% JANE! 


THINK ABOUT IT... THE HONORABLE MAYOR JANE KIM FOR THE PEOPLE OF THE CITY & COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO ...

 OR THINK ABOUT BECOMING CALIFORNIA STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL.  

WE CAN SEE IT NOW! 

Swearing In Ceremony for BOS Seat 
.... HERE'S THE HONORABLE ATTORNEY GENERAL JANE KIM IN FRONT OF SF CITY HALL - ANNOUNCING THE END OF PROHIBITION AND ELITE MONOPOLY STATE LAWS WE DO NOT NEED TO PROTECT US FROM CANNABIS.  

    ATTORNEY KIM EXPLAINS CLEARLY TO THE MASSES OF SICK, TIRED, ELDERLY PATIENTS, WRONGFULLY JAILED CANNABIS PRISONERS AND VETERANS AND COLLECTIVE MEMBERS, 

      "WE CAN LONGER RUN AWAY FROM THE TRUTH OF THE HISTORY OF CANNABIS & TYRANNY IN OUR CITIES, STATES OR NATION.

     WE ALL =KNOW= IT'S A SAFE HELPFUL GIFT OF NATURE AND POLICE ACTION TO ENRICH THE ELITE IS A RACKETEERING FRAUD THAT IS NEARLY 100 YEARS OLD.

       IT'S UP TO EACH ADULT AND THEIR LOCAL COMMUNITY TO HAVE ALL POWERS, BENEFITS, RIGHTS TO CANNABIS, FROM THIS DAY FORWARD...  
     THIS IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PEOPLE'S PRE-EXISTING NATURAL, HUMAN & CIVIL RIGHTS UPON WHICH WE STAND, UNITED, AS FREE PEOPLE.

     WE, MEANING THE PEOPLE OF SOUND MIND AND GOOD INTENT DO NOT NEED GOVERNMENTS OR CORPORATIONS TO EXPLOIT OUR SAFE GIFTS FROM NATURE ANY LONGER. 

    WE ARE WEARY OF THEIR MONOPOLIES AND INCREASED BURDENS AND COSTS THAT GO TO THE ELITE.  WE NO LONGER NEED THEM TO FULLY ACCEPT CANNABIS BACK TO OUR SELVES AND OUR LOCAL COMMUNITIES AS WE WISH"

   IMAGINE THAT PEOPLE!  

 A CIVIL RIGHTS ATTORNEY - FOR THE PEOPLE - AS OUR STATE'S TOP LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER.

Do you think she would let The Elite get away with destroying our local cannabis collectives and allow them to create Cannabis Monopolies For The Elite ?   

   WE NEED HER IN THE HIGHEST POWER POSITION WE CAN GET HER INTO!

 Cheers to you all.  Remember you are never alone.   There are new groups -not on facebook- growing all over many other Social Network Sites that do not track you or resell your personal data and habits and contact lists.    We've been reviewing a list of 49 Alternatives To Facebook and will update that Issue in a few months.   We're already on a so-far-so-good, steady-as-we-go 'secure' sites in Iceland which are on two sites.

   One site (https://seen.is) is for more public group social networking with forums and groups, classifieds and is very cool and clean.  You'd be surprised how many groups you know and don't know have scrambled like bees to Seen.Is to get away from the others we can't trust.

      The other twin site is ( https://UnSeen.Is) is very much more private. Great for secure, voice, text, video chat and group and team building for family, trusted peers, other group leaders, et cetera, so you can get real stuff done, without advertising or constant commercialized distractions or the taking of your personal data and content for profits like facebook and all like them have done, to us all for too long.

     Stay safe and never be alone on the Streets of San Francisco or the place where you live.

Story Teller Memorial for Poet Alfonso Texidor - La Leyenda de La Misión

CrowdFund Memorial and Laptop Story Telling Project Started in Honor of Alfonso Texidor - La Leyenda De La Misión:

  Many of you know our friend, Alfonso Texidor.   Most recently he was a columnist for El Tecolote Newspaper in the Mission District of San Franciso.    He was my friend and a bit of a Mentor.

Alfonso Texidor - La Leyenda de la Mision!

     I was working on getting him a laptop to write His Life Story with, when he passed away this Christmas Day, December 25, 2014.

   Truth be told, I've been crying all day, in part for losing such a friend; in part losing such a community treasure and because I feel guilty, like if I could have gotten the laptop together for him faster, maybe he would still be here... typing his story for us all to read.

     Like all the negatives that come my way in this life, this sadness in my heart is being transformed, with your help, into something that may absolve me of guilty feelings and be of tremendous benefit to us all and to our children and their children.

        Alfonso's life was vast. He lived in New York in the 60's during the riots and was as radical as being an original member of the break away group known as 'Up Against The Wall MotherFucker', notorious for community support and advocacy.

     He was also a poet, story teller and made me and my peers laugh, almost every day at El Cafetazo. He would play devils advocate and tell us our lawsuits against the City in the Supreme Court and all the rabblerousing and shelter standards of care laws, etc., wouldn't change nuthin!

     We think he did that to push us into fighting harder and more fiercely with more conviction.

      As Tribute to what this man has brought to our brothers and sisters on the East Coast & The West Coast, we're organizing a two fold Memorial Fund in his Honorable Name.

     The 1st goal is to have a wake or tribute to him and feed our fellow poets, rabblerousers with.

  The 2nd goal is to create an ongoing fund to purchase used laptops and get them into the hands of our beloved elderly, disabled and other folks with stories to tell.

     As I've painfully learned in this ordeal with Alfonso, time waits for no one, so, the faster we can fund laptops for all the poor folks in need of laptops and support to learn how to use word processing programs... the faster we can increase our awareness of our own people & history, from the minds and hearts of the folks around us who are walking history books that don't lie.


PLEASE SHARE TO ALL POETS, WRITERS, RABBLEROUSERS, ADVOCATES & ACTIVISTS.


    CROWDFUNDING NOTE:

     Since we're already testing CrowdFunding for several of our other projects (fraud, cannabis, cell phone drivers, mortgage fraud, et al.) we're going to ALSO post funds in Alfonso's Name, in order to see how well one fund site does or operates over another and publish the results.  

      Also, we have an attorney working with us and will set up a web site for all donors of all our funding projects to go to to SEE exactly how their donation was spent, with real life stories, pictures and video where possible, etc.

BLESS YOU ALL!

MAY ALFONSO REST IN PEACE AS WE CONTINUE TO HONOR & REMEMBER HIM.
