" the weed generation didn't really hurt anyone compared to the crack of today"

the crack of today was caused by the drug-culture the white hippies dumped on the poor communities...of course, the hippies had bailed by that point, so it wasn't their problem...

SF "music" was self-indulgent drug-fueled swill.

You're way off. Where are you, the midwest? SF is now a gentrified city filled with yuppies, not hippies...

Around 1961 the mayor was republican for san francisco.

Hey slap are you jealous? Number one all those "hippies" you call burnouts have done pretty well and as everyone knows (except you) the weed generation didn't really hurt anyone compared to the crack of today. So go give your "righty" speech to someone who cares and don't preach unless you know what you're talking about. Frisco gave us a lot of great music and seeing how I was just there, seems to be doing quite well without you.
