Something valued at $900 can be sold hot for $100 to $150 no problem. Get caught, break even?
How is that a dis-incentive to a thief?
stop posting bullshit about “Crime!” bla bla bla, crime this, be careful of that, most dangerous this, most dangerous that. how about talk about the real issues that affect our community and the people who have lived here for DECADES and maybe why some people do commit crime or only have limited options that give you limited resources…brain power, duh! sheitt
Battery is not bullshit. Battery is what helps keep the wards full at SFGH. Battery hurts when it is a bottle to the head or a knife to the back. Anybody who has lived in the mission for DECADES will know that battery cannot be explained away by saying the perps have limited options.
ok, well here’s something that isn’t a crime but is a real issue that does affect our community, including those of us who’ve lived here for decades

You need to be more careful with words. Don’t say “a majority” if the number is 35% or “most of them” if it is 18%.
