In a bid to address the city's drug crisis — and the crime and homelessness that come with it — San Francisco voters shifted right in Tuesday's primary, approving ballot measures that aim to boost enforcement powers.

    Crime goes down when you abolish police as well. Statistics show fewer people get arrested when there are no police.

      That is incorrect. Crime goes up as the defunded cities have shown. Somalia may be the world you want to live in but not me.

                I think you’ll find it does.

                You could ask the police and find they have no record of any crime occurring after they were abolished.

                  Now you are just trolling. You are confusing reported crime with crime.

                  As you can tell from blue cities, cutting the police radically increased crime. Now they are sitting around wondering why.

                  That is why SF is trying to fix it, but it is most likely too late.
