‘We Have No Protection’: San Francisco Police Respond To Burglary Call Nearly 15 Hours Later
Daily Caller ^ | 2/1/23 | Reagan Reese

Posted on 02/01/2023 9:51:21 PM PST by CFW

The San Francisco Police Department (SFPD) did not respond to a burglary call for nearly 15 hours on Jan. 13 and its investigation into the incident still has not produced results, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

Joe Vernieri, owner of the Black Magic Voodoo Lounge, reported a robbery of his bar to the SFPD’s Central Station at 1:06 p.m. but police did not respond until the next morning at 3:14 a.m., according to the Chronicle. Police opened an investigation into the robbery on Jan. 25, 12 days after the crime had been reported.

When your voters vote against the law and order leaders, you get leaders who are against law and order.

It’s pretty elementary but logic escapes mind numbed liberals.

But enjoy your homosexual parades in the Castro districts.

The real joke is that several years ago the Santa Clara CA PD parking lot was routinely used to dump stolen cars.
About three weeks before they would be towed.
They would not be found to be stolen until the tow company filed their paperwork.
By that time the insurance had usually already paid out.
This is the same incompetent PD who’s desk Sargent was robbed at his duty desk one night.

They’re safe from anything resembling traditional law, order and justice.

Hopefully the burglar left behind some hair. Then the owner can make a voodoo doll of the burglar ...

Aw man, I used to say “When seconds count, the police are minutes away.”

Looks like I need to update that and say “When seconds count, forget about the police even coming. Carry a gun.”

What liberals don't understand is that business is like water, it will flow into the gaps, cracks, and crevices left by government (so maybe we don't need the "city" police). And note: when I say business, I don't mean that all business is legal or legit. I just mean that someone will take advantage of a natural opportunity to provide a service.

Bottom line: The protection business isn't always a racket. Organized crime will soon move into this opportunity.

This is what one might call "unapproved privatization."

Actually, in the good old days of wild west justice, there were relatively very few attacks and murders because everyone knew that the other guy had the potential to reciprocate harm.

And what were they going to do when they show up?

Possibly arrest the perp if they are lucky and let go the next day? hand the perp a desk ticket and a ride home?

amazing how surprised they are when stuff like this happen

Last time I was in SF, Dropping a Car in a parking garage near one of the prescients, two cops were out there waving Black and orange shotguns around, and one got out of his cruiser with a rifle with a sling in his hands.

Perfectly legal for them to roam around with weapons ready, but heaven forbid the plebs get caught with an unloaded gun not “stored Correctly”

Still the case. just not as often.

It’s not/wasn’t the police parking lot though, its the Bus station across the street. Easy enough to leave cars long term due to being a bus station.

Police public lot has room for maybe 5 cars, 2 handicapped.

If they went that route, they wouldn’t call the police in the first place. And those San Fran Pigs wouldn’t bother to investigate. It would interfere with their donut/pot runs.

“Only in certain Democratic hell holes.”

Actually the signs of the increasing criminal and anti social behavior accompanying the decline of our culture and a decaying civilization are everywhere, even in the most conservative states. Drug addiction and homelessness and rising, often unreported crime, touch towns and cities in red states as well as rural communities. Public and private infrastructure are decaying at an increasing rate. The quality of health care has declined rapidly since Obamacare. The caring independent local doctor has been replaced by assembly line health management administered by impersonal employees.

Potholes in my southern town were once filled with days of appearing. Now it takes months and the repairs seem to fail within weeks. The concept of true customer service has disappeared in many businesses and government organizations. It can take 5 minutes to work one’s way through the series of questions the computer answering a phone throws at the human trying to get help. Millions are unemployed yet can take weeks to get help from a plumber or electrician. Air travel has become unbearable.

My representative in Congress (Republican) once held town hall meetings with citizens. No more. There are fewer businesses flying flags. Men use public Women’s restrooms. The pews in my church have fewer people every year. The wealthy have relocated from beautiful tree lined streets, with well tended mansions, to guarded gated communities.

I remember going to the downtown shopping district with my grandmother on Saturday. She would park the car on the street unlocked with the keys in it with no concern it would be stolen. My grandparents home was never locked. Today the retail stores are in ugly strip shopping centers. Daily there are news reports of purse snatching, car hijackings and assaults in the strip center parking lots.

Today I see fewer people smiling or making eye contact in public. Few men open a door for a woman. Rarely does a store employee great a customer, much less say “thank you”. Unwritten social norms of politeness are fading away. While civil society may have collapsed in Democrat hell holes the thin veneer of civilization is showing many cracks even in my once safe and peaceful southern town.

It isn’t just the middle class and wealthy fleeing the blue states for the red states. The gangs and drug cartels are here and the home invasions and petty crime of the addicted seeking to fund their habits are here too. Homeless people are more visible and the public libraries have become daytime hangouts for homeless men. If you live in a red state look carefully around you at the cracks appearing in the thin veneer of civilization. How bad is the rot underneath? How far is your community from being another hell hole?
