> here are many, many videos like this: [VIDEO] That's brazen. Some of the shoplifters were even wearing masks, but pulled them down to their chins.

Yes, that seems to be how it is in SF. [VIDEO] Is it possible that, despite good intentions, the policies being implemented there actually have very harmful effects?

Then what does law enforcement will do with the perpetrators? If they don't investigate this [0] will they really go after package thieves? [0] [VIDEO]

What's the point of having a Ring Doorbell if property crimes aren't prosecuted? If incidents like this [0] don't get any conviction, I have little faith that Ring footage of vandalism and package theft will get anything done. [0] [VIDEO]
