      he's comparing it to the early 90s, it's a really weird phenomenon among these folk and I don't understand it

      It’s funny I keep posting it but different people keep disputing it. You really don’t bother to do your own research do you?

      This is very common phenomena, probably due to people spending too much time glued to Nextdoor and Twitter and too little time actually experiencing life:https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2016/11/16/voters-perceptions-of-crime-continue-to-conflict-with-reality/ …

      Violent crime is down and has been trending down for decades.

      There is no evidence that overall violent crime is up in SF, though property crime (especially car breakins) are up and have been trending up for a decade.

      Someone else complained about this data not being normalized. I got it from an SF Chronicle article, you are welcome to bring your own evidence. So far, all you have added in assertion, which is the weakest form of evidence.

          Here is the source article, which is generally in agreement with my claims.https://www.sfchronicle.com/crime/article/Homicides-are-up-36-in-Bay-Area-s-biggest-16315439.php …

          Gun violence is up, but less than in other cities in the United States. I think that 2020 and 2021 are not really comparable to previous non-Covid years. If you claim this is due to Boudin, the onus is on you to prove this, without cherry picking a few stats.

          The Chronicle is in with Boudin if you didn’t know that.
