I guess the point is that there are a lot of smash and grabs in SF.
I'll add this to echo that.
I have lived in a number of big cities in several countries and have never been the victim of a smash and grab until (or since) living in SF I where I averaged 5 a year. I had a jeep and I literally stopped putting the doors on it because even if I left my car unlocked, people would rather smash a window than even check if it was unlocked.
SF has a lot of crazies, so I don't even know that theft was the motivation. I have seen people vandalize a car because it was the wrong brand or because it had a bumper sticker they apparently did not like.
- fred_is_fred 6y agoI was just trying to figure out why this was on my front page. There's no call to action, no analysis, just some rando's car with a broken window. I don't live in SF but my city has crime too. The link is a clickbait title as well which I found super annoying.
- uberman 6y agoYa, I agree it is kind of a random article. I'm guessing that because it is about crime in SF and SF being a kind of hub for tech, there is a natural draw here.
