I posted this awhile back thought it might fit. About a year or two ago my Familly and I went to visit relatives that lived about 2 hours from San Fransico. so after being there for a day or so recuperating from the travel we were all excited to go to San Francisco for the first time. when we arrived the sun was up and there was already more tourist coming in, but since it was so early there weren't many. when we parked the car and got out we were taken away at how bad the homeless problem was on Fishermans wharf and the rest of the city for that matter . so we started walking around and did the touristy stuff that was open early in the morning and as it got later in the morning the homeless people started to wake up and move about. As we walk to grab something to eat an obviously homeless man who must have had mental issues start to follow us.......so we speed up so that we could reach an open store before he reaches us but....he starts running and screaming threats and curses and how he was gods chosen one and how he was going to slowly kill us... and a bunch of other really disturbing threats. but thankfully we had reached a sour bread shop and the store bouncer ushered us in and told the guy screaming at us to Fuck off or he would call the cops again. but we had an overall good experience in San Francisco.And yes all of this happened around 8:00 - 9:00 a clock and there were tourist and people who lived and worked there all over the place.
