Anyone who has lived here more than a couple of years knows crime has been tending down for 30 years.

Respectfully - I don't see any evidence for that. The best argument may be that the data is different than the Zeitgeist (which I contend with, and I know you don't), but almost every one of my progressive friends 'feels' that crime is higher, at the minimum.

When have retailers closed stores early or altogether, citing crime? When has a retailer threatened the city to move out of their flagship location if they don't do anything about shoplifting. When have we ever seen videos like the Neiman Marcus bag incident?

Retailers were leaving San Francisco in hoards during the 60s and 70s. Anyone who tells you it is worse today doesn’t know what they are talking about.

We had Charles Manson, the Zodiac Killer, the Zebra Killers. The latter killed at least 73 White people one year and has people afraid to go out alone.

Then Moscone was murdered, Dan White got off on the “Twinkie Defense” and we had the White Night Riots. Then HIV decimated our gay population and many of our most creative people.
