Just spoke briefly with a cop from @SFPDNorthern.

He said some burglars have been caught 8+ times yet are back on the street. Said, "what are we waiting for? Somebody to get hurt?"
Neighbors - get video cameras. PD needs footage to solve crime.

2/x Real criminals (not drug users) become more bold when they know for a fact that they face no consequences (Clearly demonstrated in the latter headline - I'm sorry 15 stolen vehicles in 18 months, we can't trust you to participate in our society and respect your neighbors).
