        RIP Mr. Lee. I may not have always agreed with your policies, but I believe you had my hometown's best interests at heart and for that, I thank you for your service to SF. You will be missed 😢

        Incredibly sad for me and our family. Mayor Lee was a champion of civil rights. Our family got to know him when he headed the Human Rights Commission. Great sense of humor. He will be missed. Prayers to his family.

        What kind of insanity is it to support a sanctuary city policy that resulted in the murder of an innocent citizen?!!! Liberal political correctness is above a citizen's right not to be murdered by anyone much less an ILLEGAL?!!!

        That has nothing to do with Mayor Lee's death. He was a human being. Regardless of whether or not you agree with his politics, show proper decorum and save your politics for the appropriate forum.

        Where was your decorum when Kate was murdered? Steinle's death was the direct result of Lee's policy for Frisco being sanctuary city in case you cannot connect the dots.

        Sure. We all know that “cardiac arrest while shopping at Safeway” is code for AIDS.

        Still don’t care, anyone who has disrespected the president and this country , is a traitor. Ignoring that San Fran is pro gbltqwhatevet, is stupid, they are so proud to be gay , so call it what it is, or are we not allowed to identify anyone as they want to be identified as?

        I'm astonished that there's a hospital named after MARK ZUCKERBERG already. Wish there was one named after Tom from MySpace #TuesdayThoughts
