[–]BeBooBot 133 points 5 hours ago* There was a journalistic investigation of this. They had a dummy car with a purse and small things get broken into- they followed the thieves and confronted them. While they were meeting or interviewing someone else came and robbed their camera equipment truck.

It sucks but you were just unlucky. These are random and common acts of vandalism. They didn’t know or care you were here for the first time.
Don’t write off a city based on one bad experience, it’s a wonderful place. I hope you got some dim sum. |

Date: May 1st, 2023 3:56 PM Author: titillating pistol whorehouse u/msfga2 avatar msfga2 • 13 hr. ago Sorry that this happened to you. Even an empty backpack is a target.
If the city isn’t willing to tackle crime they should at least hire greeters to stand at SFO to remind every visitor this is a problem.
I know this is a crappy event on your first visit, but please don’t let the 1% of the population distract you from the 99% of people that make this city great. |

Date: May 1st, 2023 3:57 PM Author: titillating pistol whorehouse delosijack • 5 hr. ago You are just being mislead with anecdotical evidence. I can give you my personal experience (also anecdotical): I live in SF, been here 5 years. I have had zero break ins and zero issues. Yes there are homeless in certain areas, like any other city I’ve been (maybe a bit more I’ll grant that). But SF is an absolutely fantastic city to live in. That’s why it’s so expensive |

Date: May 1st, 2023 4:11 PM Author: titillating pistol whorehouse [–]Same-Collection-5452 16 points 5 hours ago When you put up with it for as long as we have -- and tourists keep reminding you about it, day after day, year after year -- the reaction is pretty rational. We're not okay with this, but if you're first interaction with us is "I've been robbed," then my response is likely to be, "Sorry. Take a number." Since, as a nation, we're throwing in the towel on universal public education and wealth inequality, get used to more of this no matter where you live. |

Date: May 1st, 2023 4:14 PM Author: titillating pistol whorehouse [–]taylorbear 13 points 10 hours ago these takes are always so funny too because despite everything, people stay, and people keep coming. clearly there’s something about this city that people love and are willing to pay absolutely insane rents to live in even with all of its shortcomings. yes, everyone is very upset about all the problems here, they are living through them. but there must be something more important to them than their broken car windows if most don’t just up and leave — so many residents could afford a MUCH bigger, nicer place in a quiet, lower crime neighborhood if they were willing to move just a few miles. i’ve visited several ultra-safe cities throughout east asia and enjoyed them, but there’s way more to quality of life than whether i can leave my laptop out at starbucks while i go to the restroom. there’s pros and cons to every city. i truly want things to get better here, but no, i’m not embarrassed

Date: May 1st, 2023 4:14 PM Author: titillating pistol whorehouse [–]codemuncher 10 points 8 hours ago I live in SF and just came back from one of those ultra safe Asian cities. While I was there they executed a man by hanging because he was texting to arrange to purchase 1kg of cannabis. He didn’t actually buy anything. He was just trying to arrange it. So we need to be really clear about the real inhumane costs of those cities. No one is happy about the crime and homelessness. Most of the implied solutions seem to be variations of “kill the homeless” or “threaten them until they leave and go elsewhere”. I think it’s pretty obvious why city voters aren’t interested in having that on their conscious. And as for jail and such. Well California had the three strikes law. And it was also blunted because of the inhumane circumstances that resulted. Punishment as deterrence isn’t as effective as people want it to be. That new “law and order” DA hasn’t done much at all. No results yet. The reality is if there was a simple solution it would be solved already. |

Date: May 1st, 2023 4:28 PM Author: titillating pistol whorehouse [–]braundiggity 3 points 5 hours ago 98% of these cases the cops don’t even come up with a suspect. Harsher punishment for the other 2% wont deter anyone. |
|
Date: May 1st, 2023 4:30 PM Author: titillating pistol whorehouse [–]Forgottencheshire 10 points 4 hours ago And it’s shown harsh punishments don’t work as a deterrent. Showing the cops actually trying to catch people is far more of a deterrent than harsh punishments. Rehabilitating them rather than harsh punishments. Rehabilitating should remove them temporarily from society just like prison but with the goal of preventing recidivism. https://nij.ojp.gov/topics/articles/five-things-about-deterrence Until cops actually do their job of catching the criminals nothing will change. They have the resources just not the will. |

|
Date: May 1st, 2023 4:33 PM Author: titillating pistol whorehouse [–]ReserveMaximum -3 points 10 hours ago We believe that this is a problem anywhere in the United States but only SF gets publicly criticized for it. Even now that I’ve moved to the East coast I am always conscious of leaving anything in a bag that looks valuable in my car without covering it up. This is an easy problem to avoid on our own so why involve the authorities. If you have to leave something in the back cover it up with a blanket so that it’s not visible to the outside. It doesn’t take that much work to avoid the problem there is little incentive to fix it. Of all the crimes a city could have, car theft and petty theft are better than murder and other violent crimes. Most of San Francisco doesn’t have this problem. It really only affects the tourist traps. Local residents avoid most of the tourist traps anyway so it doesn’t affect us. |
