@dang or other HN mods - can you help me understand why this post was so rapidly downranked? It's now on the 6th page... it's got to be the highest upvoted yet lowest ranked post submitted today. As far as I can tell there were no flags or anything. Am I missing something here?

Two things: (1) it set off the flamewar detector a.k.a. the overheated discussion detector; (2) users flagged it.

Thank you for helping to resolve the situation! Please disregard the email reply I sent as the issue was clearly rectified.

this is probably the least flame-y thread about crime in SF I've ever seen on here
