San Francisco approves funding for Golden Gate bridge suicide barrier

Friday's passing of a $76 million bill to build such a barrier



76 million dollars wasted.

Agreed. They should build a suicide observation deck instead.

That's a great idea.. Could have turned it into a morose tourism industry thing, kind of like viewing slums in South America.

They did make a documentary on the jumpers- there is more than one a week.. pretty bizarre stuff. Called "The Bridge"

Definitely wasted money though pretty much the exact definition of the nanny state.

Reminds me a little bit of this interview with a nanny state anti-gun fool who thinks forks and knives should be banned (and is serious)

The stupidity of politicians/other people in Los Angeles and San Francisco should NOT reflect on those who live in San Diego or the Central Valley. We would NEVER have wasted money in that fashion....
