I was born in San
Francisco and lived there until I was two years old. I asked my
mother when I was older, why she moved us to San Jose. Her answer was
“San Francisco was not a place, she wanted to raise her children.”
She told me that when she was growing up there it was hard and that
the people there were very strange. Even though I did not grow up in
San Francisco, I always enjoyed going back when I was older.
Especially going to the famous Fisherman’s Wharf, China Town,
Golden Gate Bridge and walking the piers. San Francisco is one of the
world’s famous tourist destination. Millions of people visit San
Francisco in a year. Is this going to hurt San Francisco’s tourist
trade? I say no, because people are becoming so emotionless about
events like this.
On July 1, 2015 Kathryn
Steinle was walking along one of San Francisco tourist destinations,
Pier 14 with her father. When she was shot to death by Francisco
Sanchez, an illegal alien from Mexico. He had been deported five
times. I know San Francisco is supposed to be a sanctuary city, but
come on. Five times deported, that should have told somebody that
this man should not be in this country. All of the city officials
from the Mayor to law enforcement are blaming each other. I think
their all of them are to blame. Especially I.C.E. for not coming to
pick up Francisco Sanchez. This should not have happened. My prayers
go out to Kathryn Steinle family and friends.
