What I see in SF is not a direct acceptance of crime. Instead the majority seem to believe that locking up criminals is not the best way to deal with crime. Instead there need to be social programs, community service, a focus on rehabilitation and reintegration into society rather than punishment. The intentions are good but unfortunately these policies don't seem to be working. Criminals are quickly realizing there is very little repercussion for certain crimes.
