What’s meaningful is how what feels like wide spread petty theft gives a real sense of lawlessness to the point where something like this feels inevitable. MANY of us assumed the worst, which is a sad state of affairs. I guess it’s good that it wasn’t seemingly random (although obviously horrific it happened at all), but I hope there is pressure on the city to clean up the other bits.

There is a whole industry of 'crime porn' dedicated to telling people what they want to hear. https://www.sfexaminer.com/news/cocaine-buffets-and-meth-poop-meet-twitter-s-rising-anti-san-francisco-influencers/article_723ddc00-24b0-11ed-bfc5-732c1fb7fc07.html https://www.sfexaminer.com/news/cocaine-buffets-and-meth-poo...
