Bob Lee's murder in San Francisco has stirred outrage among tech leaders and could motivate the local tech community to become more involved in city politics

Bob Lee's death has stirred outrage among tech leaders and comes at a precarious time for the industry — and the city it calls home.

    I've been friends with @crazybob for 15 years. He was one of the best humans I've ever met. I'm so glad we were able to spend time together recently. RIP. I hate what San Francisco has become. https://www.sfgate.com/...

    We moved out of San Francisco to Menlo Park a year ago after two meth addicts broke into our house while we were home and robbed us. They are both free now. The police who arrested them — and were later forced to release them by the DA — said these criminals were “frequent...

    My girlfriend woke up to this in front of our apartment in San Francisco. Some minutes later, I see the news of Bob Lee's murder. It is incredibly shocking to see how one of the most important cities in the world has succumbed to such chaos. https://twitter.com/...

    Love this city and not going to leave. Let's fix it together
  • @amy Amy Saper on x
    I love San Francisco and intend to stay and raise a family here. That being said, we clearly have many problems to solve, and @GrowSF has the clearest plan to address them ⤵️ If you feel similarly, consider joining me as a monthly GrowSF donor 🙋🏻‍♀️

    Our city has major problems, but we can fix them. I'm not leaving and neither is @sbuss. We ❤️ SF. We're working every day to build a city where new residents are welcomed, new businesses are encouraged, and families can put down their roots. We're making progress. 👉 @GrowSF.

    THESE ARE THE LUNATICS RUNNING SAN FRANCISCO EVIL INCOMPETENT FOOLS & GRIFTERS WHO ACCOMPLISH NOTHING EXCEPT ENABLING RAMPANT VIOLENCE VOTE THEM OUT

    So @garrytan @DavidSacks, and other educated folks, to save SF we have to win the Supervisor seats? That's how this thing works right? Can you educate us on a plan to “Save San Francisco” please?

    SF residents and tech workers raged at city leadership — including Chesa Boudin, who's out of office ~9 months — over what they called out of control crime after fatal stabbing of Bob Lee. Data shows SF has one of lowest murder rates in U.S. https://www.sfchronicle.com/ ... @susi…

    Listen part of the charm of an area is getting “brutally beaten” or “murdered.” These are the experiences people want! https://twitter.com/...

    It can be puzzling — and frustrating — when data doesn't confirm you live and experience. Thoughtful take by ⁦@susieneilson⁩ ⁦@sfchronicle⁩ Bob Lee killing shows why perception of crime matters — and often contrasts with data https://www.sfchronicle.com/ ...

    A disturbing crime wave hit San Francisco this week. Tech leader Bob Lee was stabbed to death, cyclist Ethan Boyes was killed by a speeding car, and former fire commissioner Don Carmignani was brutally beaten by homeless addicts. If this isn't a wake-up call, what will be?
  • @marcistook Marc Istook on x
    Headlines and anecdotes are one thing, stats are another. San Francisco struggles with property crime, but its per capita murder rate is on the low end for cities of its size, and when it comes to violent crime it's in the bottom half. https://www.nytimes.com/...

    One aspect of this well-balanced report in the wake of the horrific stabbing caught my eye: I do hope that more people in tech become directly engaged in SF affairs, participate, campaign and run for office. https://www.nytimes.com/...
