San Francisco liberals
If you have heard the disparaging term "San Francisco liberal," perhaps you were wondering what it means in practice. Well, now you know.

Awesome commercial.
No surprise that SF wouldn't let them film, but ironic that Corpsmen fight for the "rights" of SF "men" as well as all other Americans.

Hello,
Thank you for contacting Mayor Gavin Newsom regarding the United States arine Corps' recent filming of a television commercial in San Francisco.
There has been a great deal of misinformation about the filming and we ould like to set the record straight:
The United States Marine Corps' film production company, Tight Productions, did recently film part of a commercial in San Francisco. Reports claiming that a film permit was denied are incorrect.
Initially, Tight Productions requested a permit for a specific location at a time that could not be accommodated. (The request would have required closing a busy downtown intersection for the majority of a workday including commute hours.) Tight Productions was immediately offered a
variety of other San Francisco locations that could accommodate their filming at the time requested OR the specific downtown location at another time. They chose to film at their original location at another time and a film permit was promptly issued.
Tight Productions never had a problem with this process. The company has in fact written a letter to the President of the San Francisco Film Commission assuring him that their production needs were fully met by our office. I have attached a copy of that letter to this email for your review.
The San Francisco Film Commission issues film permits without regard to content. It is our mission to both promote and facilitate filming of all kinds here in our great city. When issuing permits, our primary concerns are safety and managing disruption to the residents and workers of San
Francisco. Please be assured that Mayor Newsom and the San Francisco Film Commission welcome the United States Marine Corps to San Francisco at anytime.
We appreciate your concern with regard to this matter and hope this information is helpful.
Best regards,
San Francisco Film Commission
