I was told that when George Bush became president that this kind of stuff would happen, squashing of property rights and a Stalinist regime that would seek to invade and control our private lives… who knew it would actually happen in San Francisco.
Building inspectors would receive police training and have new powers to inspect properties and fine owners, said a Building Inspection Department official.
