I’ve spent years working in and walking through the TL and civic center every day. Not once have I worried that someone was gonna “sneak attack” me. There absolutely are violent street crimes in SF, including in downtown, but the idea that downtown is some kind of mugging war zone is a farce. Its bark is worse than its bite.

2PM on a bus by Powell station a crazy homeless guy broke a full 40oz over the back of my head without any warning. He thought I was following him on behalf of the government because I had a bright red Nexus 5 phone.

I've also seen 2 stabbings in the TL, one of which killed my friend. Also a mob shooting in a carpark, again in the TL.

Sounds like you should stop hanging out in the Tenderloin. The rest of us lived there for years without being stabbed or hit with bottles. No doubt there are parts of the city with problems but you’re exaggerating greatly for no reason.
