Top San Francisco officials to discuss solutions to rampant shoplifting, smash-and-grab robberies

A Gallup poll shows San Francisco was ranked a top city for perceived safety in 2006. However, it has seen a nearly 20-point drop in recent years. STORY: abc7ne.ws/47JcT8k

I reported as soon as I saw my SUV broken into but I was told to report online and they wouldn't be able to come out for investigation unless they were provided CCTV footages which I did not have. I reported online, they reviewed and approved it for my insurance purpose. No wonder this privileged class never stops what they do.

After slavery they just became rich enough to not feel the need to steal? I would put a thieves head under a boot, but I don't think you understand the issue. Even the ones with 2 working class parents are influenced by the music of the poor ones with 1 or no parents living on welfare. The uglier they are in appearance, mind and degenerate style of clothes, the harder life is for them. Part of it is genetics on the neurological level, like father like son. A man produces chemicals in his brain based on his experiences which changes the neurological path structures of his brain that connect different areas of the brain. How good people solve problems versus how bad people do it. The man then has a son with some of his features and the mothers features. Inside and out, physically in the face and neurologically in the brain, the child is like mother and father. Sometimes you get you mothers hair and fathers nose. Mothers ears and fathers eyes. Sometimes you get your mothers good natured mind before her trauma abuse of being kidnapped by another tribe to have babies, other times you get your fathers mind . Some tribes were raiders with kidnapped women for wives, basically ancient involuntary celibates, they are the ugly whose bodies and faces are typically as they show to be as ugly as their minds in their criminal mugshots. In a way, whether by awareness or nature, this was the ugly raider tribes way of gaining beauty in the body and mind, because they were good women with values. Kept from other tribes due to breeding with a walking physical deformity. Its a complex issue, where part of it being ugly makes them angry, makes them feel entitled. All types were enslaved, then interbred of raiders who kidnapped the original slaves in exchange for old muskets that were ready or already wood rotting with rust. Which made the raider tribes easier to enslave when colonists betrayed their business partners. Imagine violent raiders, built into their genetics enslaving kinder weaker minded Africans who did not come from generations of warriors.

SF Bay Area resident here. OK, I'm just airing this out, but for Crime Stats, I'm wondering if there is some manipulation here. For example, plenty of arrests are made, BUT if the suspect/accused/defendant is found 'not-guilty', then it's not a 'crime' right? So...how accurate are the crime statistics? I say this because I've lived in the SF Bay Area all 40-something years of my life. My family owns a business here. We never had problems with smash and grab crimes til COVID, Our business was broken into several times in the span of 3 years during the COVID years and post COVID. So is it true that some 'get-away-with-it' if they are never charged officially with the crime and found guilty of it? Just 'catch and release' as the nay-sayers complain about?

[@Poundingsand]

There is definite manipulation here. The first thing to consider is that a lot of victims no longer bother to report, since it's likely that nothing will/can be done after the fact. Also, when you essentially decriminalize a lot of things (open drug use, shoplifting, etc) they don't make the list. So on paper, crime is down, but the reality is that it's actually up quite a bit. That's my take.

[@timt7330]

@@Poundingsand Agreed about the under-reporting. When the hate crimes targetting Asians went up during the COVID years, the police even admitted that many Asian victims of crime don't even report it. I hope that has changed since that kind of response would only embolden criminals to continue and target even more Asians if the criminal thinks they can get away with it.

B) The same perps operate in the same neighborhoods. They are arrested, put thru Court, and back out on street, like a revolving door. C) Even if all were arrested at the same time, and made to DO time, there's nowhere to send them. D) Because everywhere is full, understaffed and short of funding. E) Meanwhile, who on earth would want to work in policing or prisons anymore at any price? Body cams now show us all that police have to put up with. Totally demoralizing to be spit at, kicked, threatened & cursed by the same people they arrested 2 days before, out to fund their drug habit that needs a fix every few hours.

People don't report anymore because people know, at large, nothing will happen. Your car gets broken into, and the police won't come. Instead, you fill out an online report.

When it comes to drug use, don't even get me started; we've become so used to seeing literal Zombies walking around town. So yes, the numbers are "down," but at large, we won't get a real picture since most of the crimes they're reporting go unreported as NOTHING ever happens.

Good report, but I think the stats are basically useless. I know of a friend who suffered break-ins post-pandemic and didn't bother reporting it. Just called a window company to have the window replaced. Reporting a crime in SF has become a waste of time, once you realize "the system" will do nothing to catch the criminal. In fact, if they start enforcing the laws again, the stats might actually increase for a year or two, since people realize that reporting a crime will actually do something. But in reality, I don't think anything will change. The Democratic/Socialist party that controls our big cities actually wants this shambolic situation, it allows them to maintain control over a system of graft and corruption within the city government for their party loyalists in the homeless industrial complex to profit from. They can more easily hide this corruption within the general chaos of the area.

The big rise in shoplifting and assaults came with the murder of George Floyd. Some people adopted the idea that they were victims, that they deserved things, and that they had to get even with innocent people for some perceived personal wrong. As the riots and mayhem grew the authorities stood down - often under orders from elected officials. The criminal way of life was paying off and the turning point has come, now here to stay and embedded into our culture. Very tragic for our collective future.

Comparing the violent crime rate in SF to LA and NYC is silly. NY has 9X the population, and LA 3X

this type of media reporting is what exactly gives liberas a pass . A gallop poll. Years of crime stats, what a joke.

There was an armed robbery at Mike's Camera in Dublin in March as well.

Do you think Martial Law can stop the criminals❔ 🤔

It's definitely worth looking into . Decent people shouldn't have a problem with it being implicated ....
