Rather than dangers, no tasers. I oppose the use of tasers and i am not from the city but i have friends and family here in sf and i am from southern county and i am here because i would oppose the use of tasers in my city just as would oppose it and i am taking steps to make sure that the county is addressing these concerns. And i lived in the city for series of years when i got my ba in psychology at San Francisco state and i am also a social worker. And general and i want to say that in does not take a Rocket Scientist to speculate that tasers will or will not do harm to someone who has been traumatized. It is obvious that it will. With Health Problems and heart, and traumaization that is a given. It is interesting that this is being brought up to, before the crisis team has happened. I could maybe, understand, maybe understand if they wanted to bring in the tasers after a few years of the pilot program, but to do this right away is obviously counter productive to a crisis team.

Two, as regards commander ali assertion that a person under the influence of drugs or exp
Antigay comments. About ten years can ago garrison hurst made comments about sharing a locker room with gay players. He, too, apologized as did the 49ers. And earlier this week it became known former 49ers lineman harris is gay. He was arrested for allegedly beating up an exboyfriend. They claim harris and hurst were on the 49ers roster together in 2003. Tonight harris released a statement exclusively to nbc bay area. It reads, its surprising that in 2013 Chris Culliver would use his 15 minutes to spread vi it t triol and hate. I recognize these are comments that he may come to regret and that he may come to see gay people are not so different than straight people. Win or lose sunday, here is something san franciscans do not want, chaos on the streets following the game. Thats exactly what happened when the giants won the world series and nowhere was it harder hit than in the mission district.
