Turns out sf is totally safe and doesnt have a homeless or crime problem at all

Not what I said. The fact that you would choose to make a straw-man argument instead of a proper debate speaks volumes.

The fact is a person was stabbed to death and was begging people for help. Why didn't they help? Maybe because people pushed it into their head that it's all crime and that we shouldn't help strangers. Yes. Homeless people in SF are sometimes scary as hell, I know and I don't blame the people who didn't help. But adults discuss facts and reach conclusions based on factual detail. Not based on fitting into ones political narrative.

The straw-man here is you cherry picking the San Francisco Bob story to refute the problem of a rise in crime in Canada
Where did I proclaim it refuted that?
