CA-SEN: Rep. Adam Schiff's Luggage Stolen While In San Francisco, Attends Event Without Suit

[RandySF]

Congressman and senatorial candidate Adam Schiff was told not to leave anything in his car while staying in San Francisco, but he says he was in a hurry and left his luggage, which got stolen while the car was in a parking garage.

Schiff was in town this week for a couple of appearances, and at one on Thursday in Burlingame he told the assembled dinner guests that he was wearing street clothes and a hiking vest because his luggage had been swiped. The dinner at Ristorante Rocca was in honor of attorney Joe Cotchett and his support for Schiff's campaign for Senate.

"Yes, they took my bags,” Schiff told the Chronicle. “But I’m here to thank Joe."

1. My nephew went to Oakland his first college semester, his mother went out to visit him, her rental car was broken into.

she was told that virtually every rental gets its window broken and is robbed. What the hell is going on out there?

I don't think any of them have been to the Bay area recently.

It is a combination of many crimes, especially thefts, being reduced from felonies to misdemeanors along with a push to file fewer misdemeanor charges.

4. I was afraid of that, that's not going to help. That kind of shit gets Republicans elected.

2. Welcome to the Bay Area.

The thieves here are often professional gangs.
