The NYPD’s predecessor’s were abolished and rebuilt twice [1]. SFPD strikes me as similarly corrupted as those might have been.

Worked in Newark [1], a city half San Francisco’s size, and has been middling in New York [2], a city with 10x San Francisco’s population and only 6x its pedestrian fatalities [3].
