SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- Police in San Francisco have a new plan Thursday to crack down on brazen smash and grab car break-ins, which seem to be happening almost daily. Now, city officials say enough is enough.

Ironic, considering moments before this news conference began at the Palace of Fine Arts, tourist Lindsay Dobbelare from Missouri got her family's rental car broken into near the same spot.

You're an idiot, Jenkins. It's because you haven't been punishing offenders that the incident rates are so high. No punishment for bad behavior is not a deterrent. See "Broken Glass Theory" for an explanation of how the human mind works.
Can't get past the headline because: 1) It's about SF so I just can't care, and 2) "a new tact" ???? Are we talking diplomacy or are we talking about a new direction? That is "a new tack" or a resetting of the sails in order to make headway in a new direction.
A modest proposal- stakeout squad.

If you think your crime rate is bad now, keep traveling the same path and see what comes to pass.
Haha. _Will_happen? Did someone say 'pirates'?

ReplyDeleteFuck 'em. I hope San Fran chokes on it's shit. I hope Detroit and every other FAILED city chokes.
ReplyDeleteMaybe, then, the sheep will wake up, but I doubt it.
