The night scene in San Francisco – 2023

The final day of frankly miserable 2023 found the San Francisco Chronicle graphically displaying what this year, when all is said and done, was all about.

Misery. Whether it be the ongoing Russian aggression against Ukraine. The Hamas terror attack against Israel. The Israeli murderous response, bordering on war crimes, against the People of Gaza.

Locally the failed war on drugs in San Francisco which has resulted in the deaths of nearly 800 people from overdoses.

Kudos to the Chronicle for giving its Sunday morning hard copy readers something to think about when they see the front page photo and read the detailed reporting (see link above) as they sip their coffee.
