The NY Post reports<\/a> that in the wake of smash and grab looting of some of the most expensive stores in San Francisco the store owners have boarded up their store and hired security guards to protect their businesses and employees from the threat.<\/p>\n

The end quote encapsulates the situation.<\/p>\n

“Being soft on criminals has its consequences. For San Francisco, the result is a ghost town. For decades, this Bay Area destination has held conferences where it held itself up to the world as a model of a \u201clivable, walkable\u201d city.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Not any more.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cPeople are scared to go downtown,\u201d native resident Tandler told me.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the destruction of a city.\u201d”<\/strong><\/p>\n
