Well here it is, straight from the horse’s mouth:
“Our zero tolerance for quality of life violations is continuing. We are recovering many misappropriated shopping carts.”
So that’s why the SFPD’s Park Station spent half a day taking shopping carts away from homeless people
Check it, the log from January 29th, 2013:

Per commenter bd3517:
“According to the 1/24/13 Park Station Newsletter, in that week they recovered 11 shopping carts, describing it as misappropriation of property. An example entry from the report:‘Officer Diskin recovered a misappropriated shopping cart and admonished the culprit who had misappropriated it.’”
This is what it looks like.
Stage left – officer Diskin nabs yet another shopping cart in the Western Addition / Upper Haight areas, his fourth shopping cart collar of the morning of January 29th:

And stage right:

Park Station didn’t confiscate shopping carts like this before.
I wonder what led to this policy…

Dude was saying how it was better that he didn’t have some kind of permit, else all of his stuff would gave been taken away instead of just his cart.
That’s how it works in the SFPD’s Park Police District, San Francisco, USA.

The sun, we hates it, we hates it forever.
Mama always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun
But mama, that’s where the fun is

This was the scene on Ashbury near Haight in San Francisco. Maybe this guy was a firefighter for the California Department of Corrections or maybe he got his orange clothes from craigslist.com.

The ad from craigslist said that there’s nothing preventing people from wearing this kind of prison clothing out on the streets.
