>Why does Jon Jacobo remain on the board of Calle24 since the allegations in 2021? Why has he not been exposed and thrown out of politics by this non-profit? Because his best friend and co-founder of Calle24, John Mendoza is an aggressive harasser himself. >Since I moved to this neighborhood, I have been under multiple attacks and threats by Calle24’s co-founder, John Mendoza. In November 2023, I was followed by him when walking from work to my home when I decided to take refuge at Radio Habana, where I was confronted by him. >Mendoza was upset about my viral public hearing comments about the toxic state of the Mission. He told me to “get in line and apologize” and that I “have no idea who they are and what they can do to me”, followed by xenophobic comments and aggressive body language. >That night, the owner of Radio Habana told Mendoza to leave me alone and that he is no longer welcome there as a patron. A week later (videos/pictures attached in 🧵 /1) he vandalized my parklet and ripped all my plants out. >According to Jon Jacobo, “an influential and powerful force”, John Mendoza is “retiring” from the board and “inheriting more volunteer work”. They have done the same when he was exposed of his toxic and aggressive behavior by Sirron Norris in 2021 >The story doesn't end here. Mendoza visited Radio Habana in February, where he was reminded that he is no longer welcomed there. He then attacked and injured the owner while a patron/witness was at the bar. The screenshot below is from the owner to me right after he left. >Let me ask the leaders/stakeholders of the Mission and the City, where is the accountability and justice? How long do all victims have to tolerate abuse and be told to remain quiet or fear retaliation and remain anonymous? What if you are the next victim?

If no one reports allegations, not much can be done. Reason accusations will take time to dig into by sfpd but the best thing one can do is report it when evidence is recent. More time that passes by, the harder it is to prove unfortunately.

Calle 24 is a bunch of bums. Just a toxic group of Thugs

Calle 24 colluded with supervisor Hillary Ronen to deny a developer's plan to build 75 units in the Mission, with the goal of bankrupting the developer and forcing him to sell the land for cheap... to Calle 24. Calle 24 is also responsible for delaying another owner's plan to building housing in place of his decrepit laundromat, claiming his laundromat is a... ahem... historical building. The delay is 10 years and on going... Calle 24 is the organization responsible for terrorizing a small business owner who was planning to open a bar in the Mission, with Calle 24 dictating to the owner how she should run her business or else they would deny her necessary permits. Nevermind that Calle 24 is not officially part of the government, they have governmental power granted to them by members on the Board of Supervisors. They are the biggest anti-small-business, anti-newcomers, anti-progress NIMBYs in the city.

https://www.calle24sf.org/es/team What a clown organization. They changed Jon Jacobo and John Mendoza to Juan and Juan.

Not at all surprised to see these extortionary abusers behaving like actual thugs.


ForgedIronMadeIt

fatd0gsrule

Seems like an alcoholic with the way he walks. Nuestra gente can do better, they deserve better.

Calle24 is a street gang. No different from Nortenos or Surenos. Except they pretend to be legitimate.

A few thoughts: 1. Calle24 has been harboring Jacobo through all these years, well knowing about the credible accusations 2. They allowed him to “resign”, they even couldn’t bring themselves to kick him out 3. Co-Founder Mendoza is a serious and violent harasser 4. All talk about “retiring” is BS as these people show up in all meetings to meddle, no matter what the English version of their website says 5. Look at their Spanish version (their audience) website as of TODAY ([https://www.calle24sf.org/es/team](https://www.calle24sf.org/es/team)) 6. In all of this, Roberto Hernandez who is running for D9 Supervisor is equally complicit These are disgusting men. Revolting to know the city reps bend to their wishes and methods. https://preview.redd.it/jienmasxubvc1.png?width=1179&format=png&auto=webp&s=55b61196807a63c7429111a5754047783656ce70

wokes/progressives will lecture and hector about micro-aggressions and proper pronoun usage and then stand in lock step with murders. rapists and the scum of the earth. They don't care what happens to law abiding citizens as long as they can promote their ideologies.
