Do you think SF is safe? Do you live there? If so do you go downtown? Or to parks, or to soma or ride the bus? Have you ever walked on Polk street? Take a glance towards the tenderloin if you do. I’ve seen brazen daylight heroin injection on mission street. A dude ducked into the entrance of tech shop to smoke a little crack with people inside looking at him. I’ve seen more public shitting than I would have thought possible. I’ve personally witnessed the phenomenon or brazen shoplifting (where someone just openly loads up a bag or even rides a bike through stealing stuff) I’ve experienced the elevated property crime. A good friend was held up at gunpoint. All in the last year I was living there. I was there in December around Union square. There were three cops on every corner due to the rash of violent robberies and smash and grabs. I spent the week constantly looking over my shoulder. San Francisco is very unsafe. There’s a general feeling of lawlessness and that crime can be committed with impunity. I would literally feel safer in Somalia because at least there I would be armed and expected to defend myself.
