Luv N' Haight

"'I know people hate me. I can see it in their eyes. But they're never going to get rid of junkies in the Haight,' said Steffon Haaby, 22, a former heroin addict who said he fled a troubled single-parent home in Spokane, Wash. 'If I lived my life trying to please everybody, I would have stayed home with my mother.'"

John M. Glionna of the Los Angeles Times visits San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district and finds ex-hippies at war with gutter punks.
