A long-planned and unprecedented Board of Supervisors meeting was held at UN Plaza, the epicenter of San Francisco's open-air drug market crisis.
It was meant to draw urgency to the deteriorating street conditions and worsening drug problem, but it was cut short soon after it began.
It wasn't hard for KPIX 5 cameras to find people opening using drugs nearby, in the shadow of City Hall. Within minutes, the meeting turned chaotic. Members of the public shouted down Peskin and the mayor. "I am putting everything on the line. I am doing this job without fear of losing it because at the end of the day when you know what it feels like to grow up in chaos you want nothing more than change," she said. "Why should someone else's rights be put before their needs and their safety and what they deserve, too, in a place like San Francisco that claims to be so compassionate and liberal. What about them?" she said.
