Just a few notes I quickly thought of:
- SF has policies that encourages homeless to emigrate there, one of which is being pretty lenient to anyone who sets up camp on the streets
- SF allows open drug markets that has become a hotbed of criminal activity
- Police aren't fully empowered, and many people because of their ideology tend to hate police
- Lots of catch and release going on, both anecdotally and on news
- They offer drug kits (think needles, pipes, and other tools). The kit looked to be worth around $100
- They gave free alcohol/marijuana to homeless during lockdown
- A large subset of the population seem to give no shits about the city or other people: public urination, defecation, harassment, drug use, property theft, vandalism is common. The lack of enforcement has allowed these activities to increase
