Even if the car burglaries are down, it doesn't do anything to alleviate the experience of people who have had their car broken into.

There's clearly a problem.

Not sure how you solve it though.

There are two groups working on recalling the DA, that should actually help TBH.

Honeypots and vigilante justice?

A sudden enthusiasm for the second amendment?

I do think that racist street enforcement by the cops was effective at keeping down certain classes of crime. With BLM, the police are backing off of that.

I absolutely think that modern policing can curb petty crime without racist brutality. I think drones and other surveillance based policing can work with proper constitutional powers/design and delegation to proper public institutions with legal charters.

If it can't be done in California, well, things don't look good.

I heard a story about people putting small explosives charges in bikes and then leaving them out to be stolen, so that they explode when disassembled. It's a shame that setting traps like this is illegal, it did temporarily lower bike thefts in the area.

I saw one YouTuber build a bike that was structurally unsound and would fall apart just after the thief started riding it causing them to hit the ground.

The new Bluetooth tracker tags from apple and Samsung might also help.
