Just spoke briefly with a cop from @SFPDNorthern.
Incredibly thoughtful man.
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.
1) its not permanently this way. 2) its not because these crimes no longer matter. 3) We should find some other way to address this than incarceration, incarceration is always a expensive, unhealthy, and dangerous injustice.
