That particular intersection is just on the edge of the Tenderloin district, which is ... uhh ... NOT a real nice nor safe part of town. It's shady as hell there, frankly.

I'm inclined to take a wait & see til we get some more news before we lose our collective shit.

That said, if it IS a hate crime though, then I absolutely vote for losing our shit.
