Walgreen’s employee: “Items are stolen faster than we can restock them...so we don’t.”
SF is collapsing on itself and no politicians/police are fighting the problem.

Painful to see this, and I know Chesa’s an easy target, but all of this predates him. Prop 47 undercuts anything any DA—regardless of political stripe—could do. Plus, locking more people up treats the symptom, not the problem. More policing doesn’t necessarily deter crimehttps://twitter.com/nmoryl/status/1262268851879739394 …
Don’t get me wrong—this is absolutely shameful for one of the wealthiest cities in the country and a damning indictment of both local and state policies. But it’s way deeper than one recently-elected DA and that facile narrative distracts us from solving the actual problems
It’s not as though people respond to incentives and loudly announcing that they absolutely will not be prosecuted unless they steal >$1000 couldn’t possibly have any effect on behavior. #facepalm
Could it be with less officers there’s less arrests therefor less “crime per capita” making it to the books?
"Crime per capita" is based on crimes reported, not arrests made. The share of reported crimes that are investigated is more likely to correlate with police resourcing levels than crime reporting is. But even granting your hypothesis, the data doesn't support your conclusion.
