Last year, burglaries increased in most San Francisco neighborhoods. What to do to control the situation? Petty theft has been decriminalized, and as result countless stores closing shop in San Francisco, CA.
Brilliant! 🤦♂️
This controversial law has sparked outrage among small business owners, who argue it will encourage theft and hurt their bottom line. Supporters of the law claim that it is necessary to address the high cost of living in the city and help those struggling to make ends meet. However, the reality is that this law is a misguided attempt to address deeper issues and will ultimately do more harm than good. The city must find more effective solutions to address poverty and inequality rather than turning a blind eye to criminal behavior.
