Quote:San Francisco's lax policies on crime are pushing droves of people out of the city. One of them, 87-year-old Rongxin Liao, has had enough, and he's moving somewhere safer: China.

Rongxin Liao, 87, is taking a flight to Guangzhou, China, on Saturday to live out the rest of his life there, his son Jing Liao told The San Francisco Standard this week.

His son relayed to the outlet that his father finds it "too dangerous here." In Cantonese, Liao added, "Public safety situation in San Francisco has become worse and worse."

According to the family, their father is going back to live with one of his other sons who currently resides in China.

The elderly man has been the victim of multiple assaults while living in the city in the last few years.

In 2020, Liao was jump-kicked out of his walker onto the street by an assailant while waiting for a bus in San Francisco. Following the attack, Liao appeared in court several times to urge a harsher punishment for his assailant.

Surveillance footage capturing the assault was used in a viral ad calling for the recall of then-San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin, who was eventually recalled due his soft-on-crime policies that the ad said contributed to a 567% rise in anti-Asian hate crimes.

First thought: What kind of absolute savage jump-kicks an elderly man out of his walker? What a coward.

There are many facets to this problem, from unchecked illegal immigration to lax, Soros-funded city prosecutors.

The attack mentioned above, where Mr. Liao was kicked out of his walker, was just one of several attacks on the elderly man.

His son revealed to outlet Sing Tao Daily that he was punched in an unprovoked attack last October while he was on his way to buy medication at Walgreens.

The San Francisco Standard reported that a police report from that date showed that "an 86-year-old Asian male matching Liao’s description was the victim of an unprovoked attack in which the suspect punched him. He was transported to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries."

Meanwhile, one prominent California pol thinks it's appropriate to regulate mousetraps (since the state has no other problems). You really can't make this stuff up.

California in general, and Los Angeles and San Francisco in particular, are now to the point where people who have the option find Communist China preferable.

Like many of our major cities, San Francisco is out of control. The streets are strewn with Bidenville enclaves of tents and cardboard shelters housing the homeless, many of whom are addicts or mentally ill; open-air drug bazaars seem to be open for business in every city park, without interference by the disheartened police. It's not safe to walk on the streets, particularly for the elderly, who are subject to just this kind of cowardly attack all too often.

The cure? That will begin when the residents of these cities stop voting for Democrats; the problem is that many of the wealthy urban elites who not only continue to vote for these same Democrats but who fund their campaigns are insulated from the mess their cities have become, and what's more, they care little about what the everyday people are dealing with.

And so the exodus continues.

Now other immigrants are leaving….lol
This isn’t going to set well with our president’s handlers.

I would expect this month’s payment to be a little light.

Might force Hunter to cut back on the hookers and blow in February.

Lucky for him it’s a short month.
