You can check it out it at the Masonic Trader Joe’s from atop the Geary Tunnel:

Now I think the SFPOA’s old slogan was “Double Dipping 4 Ever – It’s Our Way of Life.” But, as you can see, it’s now, “THEY WORK TO MAKE YOUR DAY.”
Get it? “Make your day?” I get it! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!. You so cray-cray Gary Delagnes! (But hey Gare-Bear, do the Warner Brothers know what you’re doing with their Dirty Harry catchphrase? Just asking, Bro.)
Anywho, here it is on the YouTube. I think it’s entitled “More Money for Us, Less Money for You.”
What’s coming up next week from this campaign? These are my guesses:
“Here are six different reasons why Public Defender Jeff Adachi totally sucks.”
I was thinking, “Man, I wouldn’t make a U-turn right in front of a cop,” but this cabbie just went for it, going from outbound McAllister to inbound to pick up a fare, as seen camera left
So the cop pulls up and then stops to roll down his window to start yelling.

Now if you drove like this cabbie, you’d get a ticket.
This was the scene yesterday, with a man trying to remove pro-OccupySF stickers from the railing installed for the bocce courts recently installed for and by the rich, WASPy one-percent.*
The cops who have been patrolling this area for months were nowhere to be seen at this particular moment yesterday.
There are three stickers visible here. They have words like “war” and “cops” on them. The uniform badge says “Embarcadero Center Janitorial.”

Apparently, Embarcadero Center / the Hyatt Regency Embarcadero Hotel have become clubhouses of sorts for anti-Occupy forces. Per the Counterpunch:
“On two separate occasions, I saw cops assembled in the Hyatt and a couple of other nearby hotels. I was sent by our General Assembly to do recon so I buttoned my shirt up, took off my bandana and put on my best English accent.
“Walking with a confident stride toward the Hyatt, wary security and bellhops opened the door for me. I found the cops relaxing in a conference room.”
When oh when will the one-percent reoccupy this part of Justin Herman Plaza?
*This includes former Mayor Gavin Newsom, also a rich, WASPy member of the 1%. For some reason, a small, Eurocentric lawn sport project was Job One for him, back in the day.
So, now that OccupySF is over, area property owners are happy? Really? Mmmm.
And who was it, was it Hawaiian Airlines or Disney what was demanding the end of OccupySF? Maybe I’ll look into that and see how they feel about Occupy. [Cough, boycott, cough.]
On It Goes…
*Owner of Embarcadero Center or someplace. (Now isn’t that a great name for a San Francisco company?)
You’d have to hang out down by the foot of Market Street to see how many cops are still there “protecting” the bocce ball courts from the 1st Amendment during the year-end holidays of 2011.
What you’d see is lots and lots and lots of police. Preventing a Reoccupation appears to be Job One for the SFPD this last month of 2011.
This was the scene last night in Sue Bierman Park just north of Justin Herman Plaza. Can you see all the tents?
People were marching in support of Bradley Manning, but just after 5:00 PM or so the Occupy tents started going up.
Then the 8:00 PM closing time for the park came along so the tents started coming down. (San Francisco officials want to make sure they don’t “pull a Quan,” of course.)
