One of the local radio shows I listen to has a lady who is a San Fran transplant. She says the trick is to leave your doors unlocked and your windows down (and obviously dont leave a single thing in your car), so the thieves don't damage your car.
6 year anniversary of the death of my friend Kate Steinle at the hands of an illegal immigrant coddled by the city of SF, both before and after her killing.
"He found the gun, and it accidently went off" "He was just shooting at sea lions"
Nothing as naïve a a SF liberal on a jury.
SMDH.
Wish I could "LOL at San Francisco" but I'd rather it get rubblized.
BUMP

Democrats are just so bad at crime and punishment, it's actually mind-boggling how they can be this stupid.
Jimmy G was probably too busy looting Neiman Marcus to comment lately.
'Lawlessness': San Francisco's shoplifting problem increasingly frustrates business owners, employees
Full article here: https://www.foxnews.com/us/san-franc...s-locals-react
Cliffs:
* Shoplifting and car break-ins are becoming more brazen in San Francisco and residents, business owners and employees told Fox News they're becoming increasingly frustrated.
* California Retail Association President Rachel Michelin told Fox News the extent of the problem "blows your mind away." She said multi-millions of dollars worth of merchandise is being stolen from retailers in San Francisco and the money is ultimately used by crime syndicates.
* Shoplifters aren't stealing "one or two items that someone might need to get by," San Francisco Police Department spokesman Robert Rueca told Fox News. "Our investigations have shown that there are organized fences where people are selling these products that they steal."
* This results in higher prices, which is what Jimmy G uses as "proof" that San Francisco isn't the shit hole that every other person says it is.
SF #1 place to live.
NYC loses top spot on 'world's best' list that names San Francisco a better place to live

It must suck hating SF and getting your hopes up w/the shit story that it sucks here but...San Francisco has been crowned the world's best city

San Francisco crowned the ‘world’s best’ city to live: survey
https://www.kron4.com/news/bay-area/...o-live-survey/
Here's all that went into the calculation:
"Time Out" used a panel of its own experts, then polled 27,000 global city dwellers about food, drink, culture, social life and sustainability
You think if they also calculated number of homeless, drug addicts, reasonable cost of living, crime, and shit on the sidewalks that they would have come up with the same list? I thought you were a democrat, aren't you supposed to be judged be how the people on the bottom are doing?
Despite Warnings, Repairs on San Francisco’s Millennium Tower Caused Additional Sinking
By Abigail Sterling and Max Darrow
SAN FRANCISCO (KPIX 5) — Construction on a fix for San Francisco’s leaning Millennium Tower came to a stop in late August because the fix was actually making the tower sink even more. Now it appears some of that damage could have been avoided.
“Millennium Partners wanted to get the thing wrapped up,” said Robert Pyke, a geotechnical engineer and early critic of the current so-called “perimeter pile upgrade.” He says the $100 million plan to shore up the sinking tower should have been stopped months before it was.
“Certainly by the end of June it was obvious that there was additional settlement as a result of installing the casings and the piles,” said Pyke.
KPIX asked him to review engineer logs and internal emails obtained by KPIX 5. A chart produced by the team shows the accelerated sinking started in mid-May but work on the project continued through June and July.
He says the continued drilling may have even exacerbated a sewage problem at the luxury high-rise, described in an August 26th email as “third-floor kitchens experiencing some plugging.”

When I was a wee lad I did a few buildings in Boston’s Back Bay. The Back Bay is all land fill. I was electrical and didn’t know shit about structural things. I remember them pounding wood pilings into the ground. (Think piers in the ocean). I was told the building would sit on these pilings and every building in the area was built that way. “No shit”, I say. “You wanna build 40 stories on that?”
Furthermore, and I found this mind blowing, the pilings needed to be kept wet otherwise they decay. Hmmm.
I see San Francisco “dewatered” there landfill. It might be that this is setting up the Millenium Tower shit show.
Walgreens closing 5 more San Francisco stores due to theft
The retailer cites 'organized crime' as the problem
Further evidence that San Francisco is a crime ridden toilet of a city where crime has zero consequences.

"Organized retail crime continues to be a challenge facing retailers across San Francisco, and we are not immune to that," the spokesperson continued. "Retail theft across our San Francisco stores has continued to increase in the past few months to five times our chain average. During this time to help combat this issue, we increased our investments in security measures in stores across the city to 46 times our chain average in an effort to provide a safe environment."
The stores closing in the coming weeks are at 2250 Ocean Ave, 4645 Mission Street, 745 Clement Street, 300 Gough Street and 3400 Cesar Chavez Street.
Walgreens has shuttered at least 10 of its stores in the city since the beginning of 2019, according to the San Francisco Gate.
Over the summer, the California Retailers Association reported that San Francisco, Los Angeles and Sacramento have some of the highest organized retail crime in the nation.
Critics blame a referendum California passed in 2014, which downgraded theft of property to a misdemeanor as long as its value is $950 or less.
Thieves ransacked cars in San Francisco in broad daylight, shoot at good Samaritan
Victims were told to fill out an online police report
Full Article here: https://www.foxnews.com/us/thieves-s...good-samaritan
A San Francisco man tried to stop thieves breaking into cars along the Embarcadero in broad daylight Wednesday, and was shot at in the process.
The good Samaritan shouted at two men taking luggage out of a car, then followed them as they broke into another car and began taking photographs. That's when one of the thieves pulled a gun and fired at him, the witness said.
As far as the police response, the people whose cars were broken into were told to fill out an online police report. The witness who was shot at was also told to fill out an online police report, but he called 911 a second time, they agreed to send out an officer to meet with him.
Further Proof that San Francisco is growing more uninhabitable by the day. It used to be a nice place. Now, it's a shit hole.
