I've been down on the whole “Haight Street gutter punks invading the Mission” thing in the past, but this conversation between a Mission kid and a crusty set of Caucasian dreadlocks that I overheard last night outside a bar (where else?) has me reconsidering my scorn:
[Following a 5 minute rant about Ron Paul and how dyslexics are the only hope for America]
Gutter Punk: How could you vote to reelect Obama?!
Mission Kid: The world is a complicated place…
GP: Did you know he voted for indefinite detention?!?!
MK: Obama doesn't “vote.”
And then he stole my friend's margarita.
