  1. Ethnicity would be helpful, but of course, it might piss someone off if you read through and it was all of one ethnicity. Crime reporting must of course be politically correct.

  2. Is is the policy on this site to not list ethnicities of crime suspects? There is always such a uselessly limited description of suspects that it makes me wonder.

    1. Maybe they don’t mention the race because the huge majority of the crimes are committed by Hispanic people followed by black people. Whitey would then get upset and demand the police did something.

      1. “the huge majority of the crimes”

        Don’t you mean ALL the crimes? When was the last time one of the hipsters in the Mission punched someone in broad daylight and stole their wallet? Robbed someone at gun/knifepoint. Shot someone?

        1. A lot of white people on speed/meth/crack are responsible for bike thefts, car and garage break-ins ect. So, not ALL crimes are committed by brown/black people, just most.
