We had a wonderful Safeway on Bayshore Boulevard in San Francisco in the 70s. It also closed for the same reasons -- flagrant theft that occurred before everyone's eyes. Not just alcohol and not just teenagers. There's a Grocery Outlet there now and the security is no nonsense. I haven't heard of any complaints or repercussions, although theft still occurs. Safeway puts up with so much it's a miracle they continue to serve San Francisco. The thefts are not a matter of need but are an example of one of the few talents coming out of the hood. I blame the elite, "educated," progressive white folks who live in places like Noe Valley who pretend to have a solution to racism. They know nothing about the Black community but always pander to them. Theft has to be prosecuted and people need to serve time for their offences. Otherwise, the behavior will continue forever.
