SAN FRANCISCO, Cali. — If you’ve committed a crime and served time behind bars, you’ll no longer be classified as a “convict” in San Francisco.
According to the San Francisco Chronicle, those types of labels are being replaced with new ones approved by the Board of Supervisors.
They recently passed a resolution containing “person first” language guidelines that all agencies and departments are urged to used.
For example, an offender will now be called a “formerly incarcerated person”, “justice-involved person”, or “returning resident.”

Tucker on Fox said tonight that drug addicts will now be called substance users,
puts them on the same level as those who take insulin for diabetes.

Ridiculous. Sad. Mind boggling. Disheartening. Confusing... wait, no, that one doesn’t fit; they’re clearly the confused ones!
 
Being able to crap on the sidewalk is almost enough to attract me back there. Not having to flush would be a tremendous time saver. :cool:

Lots of new Sidewalk Defecation Engineers in SF now, from what I understand.
 
Will the ATF issue a 4473 form specific for San Francisco - questions: 11b, 11c, 11d, 11e need to be adjusted to comply with San Francisco board of supervisors directive.
Oh wait, San Francisco only allows criminals to own firearms so no 4473 is required.

Just 'borrow' them from a Federal agent's vehicle, kill a woman out with her family, and and claim that you were illegally shooting at seals on a public pier. They'll let you go free as a bird esp if you're an illegal criminal

Calling inmates and criminals something other than inmates and criminals isn't going to make them become better people.

Progressives will never learn that you can't simply 'word salad' something better.

Just like they can't solve their feces and needle-ridden sidewalks by telling themselves that its a good thing.

Reminds me a bit of that fairy tale, The Emperors New Suit.
 
They forgot to include immigrant replaces Illegal Alien.
 
The reality is SF, Seattle, Portland and LA are getting all the press, but this is all coming to a big city near you. It’s a predictable path for Marxist economics in cities and states. They can’t print money like the Feds so their policies squeeze the middle class out while excusing any behavior or crimes by the downtrodden. The wealthy generally have so much money that they are not really bothered by tax increases and they can afford to pretty much isolate themselves from the riff raff. Those cities become filled with high wealth people, people to serve them at restaurants etc, and the people that were on the bottom wrung and couldn’t afford to escape. Look at Manhattan. Similar situation. Given enough time De Blasio will create the same mess. Chicago? Baltimore? Atlanta and Miami. They are all there to certain degrees. When I stayed at a buddy’s place in a suburb of Atlanta the news was surreal. Thought I was watching a live PD greatest hits show. I looked at him and said I’d move.

Big cities are all pretty much expensive, dangerous and run by believers in nanny states that eventually make thing worse.

Next week, @drypowder can chime in with a demographic study pf these places. :p

Not at all. This is deliberate control of language. Just like "assault weapon".

When you control the language, you control the discussion.

Newspeak.

https://www.cliffsnotes.com/literature/n/1984/critical-essays/the-purpose-of-newspeak

"A living language, such as English, one that has the capability of diverse expression, has the tendency to gain words and therefore broaden the awareness and knowledge of its speakers. Newspeak, on the other hand, loses words, by removing words that represent opposing concepts."
