You are right. It does look like mad Max. Some people say it’s worse than a third world. The In-N-Out that left Oakland was a money maker, but the employees were getting robbed on their way out to their cars and their cars were getting broken into. Raising canes right around the corner put a fence up all the way around the employee parking lot! Thank you for watching. Thank you for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
You are right about that! I’ve said it before it’s like the wild wild West, but worst. In the wild wild West, you were able to carry a gun and protect yourself. But today’s world if you protect yourself with a gun, you will be prosecuted for protecting your family and property. We live in an upside down world. We’re good as bad and bad as good. Thank you again for watching. Thank you again for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
You are right about that. They are still robbing people in the parking lot at the Chinese food place panda express. That’s why every time I go there I see at least two security guards! At least sometimes for. How much money is spent on security guards in Oakland? Thank you again for watching. Thank you again for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
That’s right. It’s like SWAT guys training in/around shoot houses ( or firefighters training in mock buildings) : The crooks can practice their tactics of robbery👆🏽
Well, thank you for watching! And thank you for your nice comments. People give me a hard time for documenting the fall of civilization. I feel it’s interesting to see how we have. Let our country go down the tubes so fast. Do you think we could ever get it back? I mean, clean up the streets like they were before? I don’t think so. I think we’re far gone and there’s no turning this ship around. Thank you again for watching. Thank you for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
@@JoyCool1 what would be interesting would be if you did a video of the Oakland In n out and the Meridian Idaho in n out and show how some cities are booming Las Vegas, Boise? While others are dying -Oakland.
So depressing. Last night I was kept awake for an hour from 2 to 3 AM by a street takeover/sideshow with firecrackers going off over by 40th and Broadway.
Yes, it’s getting bad Chris. My neighbor just came to the door and said my work truck has been gone through. All the doors were open and this is in broad daylight! I don’t know how much longer I could live in California, but I really need to stay here for work. I am a slave to the Dollar unfortunately. Thank you for watching. And thank you for your nice comments. Happy Easter and stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye, Chris .
You are right! Not all of Oakland is like this. People say I only film the bad stuff. And that is true that I don’t film the good stuff because that does not get any views. But I will say this, even in the good parts of Oakland , you are not safe. Especially if you are a certain color or race. People say I should not show this. But I have to fall and show the fall of civilization. Thank you again for watching. Thank you again for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
@@JoyCool1 This content is insightful. I recall visiting Oakland in 2004, and it appeared much more appealing. Unfortunately, with the current inflation and economic downturn, we’re witnessing the impact on the city. It’s astonishing to see how professional teams, restaurants, and major chain stores have departed Oakland due to the escalating crime rates.
You are so right! That is a great observation. The whole world is watching America right now. And they are surprised on what’s going on. Even Americans are surprised of what is happening to America. I think this is all by design? They want us Out of the normal life. Thank you for your nice comments and thank you for watching. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
It is just a shame I grew up in that area I remember when it was just weeds out there and during the Christmas season it was a tree lot in a pumpkin patch it breaks my heart to see all that garbage I mean the Denny's across the freeway there for 55 years closed thanks for the video and you definitely stay safe out there
Wow! That is a great story and a sad story as well. I know exactly about the Christmas tree farm being erased by trash and blight. I don’t even think you could have a Christmas tree farm anymore without it getting robbed? They are even robbing the poor little ice cream cart pushers. They rob grandma’s they rob anybody around here. The cigarette stores are closing because they keep getting broken into with stolen cars in the middle of the night. Thank you again for watching and thank you for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
When you're doing your documentary are you cruising down 12th cuz I can see the overpass that takes you to Alameda I didn't even know about that Christmas tree banning stuff I live in Nebraska now I haven't been to Oakland since 2009 it's a shame what they did over there on hegenberger they had all those nice restaurants Walmart what they're going to head over to San Leandro now on Davis Street we're falling on the road to welling boulevard you don't be seeing that stuff over in Piedmont are the Claremont area anyway thank you for your reply and you stay safe out there on the streets trust nobody
Wow! I do believe you! That’s why I’ve been trying to go by there every other day just to look at it. There are no stores in this whole area that are graffiti free. It’s just a matter of time before they get to it. Like you said the first to get on that is going to get major credit. But there’s full-time security right now, but they can’t guard all four sides especially in the middle of the night. Thank you again for watching. thank you for your nice comments and all that information. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
We cannot start towing these homes because people live in them. There’s a thing called the band lords that collect rent on their vans. Landlord ‘s for vans. There are so many stolen cars in Oakland that the impound lot is full and they run out of room. That means that there are more than 50 cars stay stolen from the streets of Oakland . Thank you again for watching. Thank you for your nice comment. Stay strong and healthy. Bye
Yes, it is sad to see the city of Oakland in this condition. It’s always been bad, but never like this. I feel sad for everybody who has to live there in fear. Even the city mayor has been rated by the FBI. And she says it’s all a right wing conspiracy. Everything is racist and everything is right wing. No one wants to take actions for their own fault. The city of Oakland is out of control and the mayor does not want to take responsibility. She’s in bed with her boyfriend and doing business with her boyfriend‘s business. This isn’t good. Thank you for watching and thank you for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
I’m not really sure? I don’t think so? But I don’t know. But it would not surprise me because a lot of things have been set on fire around this area. Thank you again for watching and thank you for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
You are so right! I went by there today and looked at it, and there were still people working there and the building was still clean of graffiti.

That is a shame! They really need to do something about that city. Call National Guard or whatever. People tell me to quit making videos about this subject. I tell him that I need to film the fall of civilization. This is not right. But these videos Affect me too, so I can only take so much of myself. Thank you for that comment and story. I’m so sorry about all that. Stay strong and healthy. That’s the important thing. Bye-bye.
You are funny David Bacon! A bomb shelter yeah right. More like a drug den homeless shelter that will be set on fire soon! That’s more like it. Thank you for watching. Thank you for your nice comment. Stay strong and healthy David Bacon. Bye-bye.
Believe it or not, there was security like that. But they did not pursue the thieves. Nowadays, if security gets involved, they will be charged with a crime. The store workers were getting robbed on their way out to their cars, and their cars were getting broken into while they were at work. Thank you again for watching. Thank you again for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
That Area sucks because of the people ,not all of them but enough to make it a rotten joke,I have been to that wallmart and it sucked because of certain people ,stealing,throwing food at McDonald's employees, grifters at the entrance wanting donations for a fake church,employees stealing,customers stealing ,I never lived there but I worked there and in all the surrounding area including San Francisco, from 40 years ago and its way worse now than 40 years ago.Gavin Trudeau Newsome is only half the problem.
Believe it or not in and out did have security. And even with the security guards right there people would still get robbed in the drive-through! And people would still get their windows and luggage stolen from their cars right in front of the security guard! The security guards weren’t there for anything but to deter them, but after there was no chase or interference, they just knew they can get away with it. This happened over and over and I even saw that aftermath one day. It is very unsafe in that whole area. We just had another Chevron gas station close. I’m gonna go do a video about that. So even with security guards and police they still can get away with it? Something wrong in our society? Thank you again for watching and thank you again for your nice comment. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
You are so right. I am a white man driving through Oakland with his iPhone sticking out the window. That can’t be good and has to be dangerous! Thank you for watching and thank you for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
I would say you were right, but I went there today for dinner and it was very slow. I don’t usually go there for food, but I did tonight because I wanted to check on In-N-Out Burger and see if it had graffiti on it. And it still clean and does not have graffiti on it. Thank you for watching. Thank you for your nice comment. Stay strong and healthy.
I used to eat there every Friday night myself. It’s sad to see Oakland in the state it’s in. But I think this is all by design? I think they want us to start the new way of life. They don’t want us going out and shopping anymore they want everything online so they can keep track. Maybe it’s just me? Thank you again for watching. Thank you again for Your nice comment. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
Believe it or not they did have that security there. But that did not stop the criminals. They still robbed the employees and the customers. They don’t care if you’re pumping gas they will break into your car on the other side. Thank you for watching. Thank you for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
I guess you didn't want to chance sitting at the light at Oakport? 😂 Can't say I blame you. I used to work in that neighborhood where those office building are back when it was still kind of functional. During the day it wasn't too bad back then, but it could get a bit sketchy at night. I remember there used to be a Carrow's there, and when Carrow's went out of business, a Black Bear Diner. Now there's hardly anything left of it. It's pretty sad to see actually.
Wow! Thank you for that. Great story. Yes I do need to make more videos of this subject. People are fascinated by the state of Oakland for some reason? I just need to be careful going over there! It is kind of dangerous for a white boy like me to be going around those neighborhoods. We have a six cents for a reason so we should listen to it. But yeah, I got a couple videos that I want to make about Oakland people tell me not to make those videos because it’s shedding bad light on it but I think I should fall of civilization? Thank you again for watching and thank you again for your nice comment. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
@@JoyCool1 The only thing that would really make you a big target around there is the camera. Not just because it is a valuable piece of equipment, but also because the locals really don't want to be filmed. Not all the criminal elements that feel that way either, but there is also a personal safety concern some of the regulars would have. Most of the people that live around places like that are decent folks, and they are the ones being terrorized the most by the criminal element. The big thing to always remember is to never act like you don't belong there, and always be aware of your surroundings. Most of the time you will be alright. That's good advice anywhere you go. I did work a few night shifts in that neighborhood, and I can tell you couple of short stories. One, I was covering for the graveyard person who had a family emergency, and it was a Saturday night, I believe. About 2:30'ish in the morning, and I remember I was outside having a cigarette, and hearing machine gun fire coming from the neighborhood between Hegenberger and 98th Ave. This was maybe 10 years ago. The second story, I heard a loud crash on Hegenberger one night just right before my shift ended -- I worked Swing Shift then. When I drove up Hegenbeger heading towards the Nimitz, I saw what the noise was. A van was tipped on it's side, on the side of the road going towards the airport, it had gone through the BofA sign in front of that office building, and there were at least a dozen Oaklan PD cruisers, lights flashing and all. Looked like a high speed chase had ended. And to think, those were the better days there. 😂
Wow, those are great stories. I’m glad you’re not working down there anymore? I hope you ever have to come back to Oakland again! Stay strong and healthy and thank you for your house comment
@@JoyCool1 I haven't worked for that company for 8 years, and they did move to Alameda my last year there. Unfortunately, I am not far enough away from Oakland right now. So I still see the dysfunction on a fairly regular basis. It's sad because it can be a really great place, and there are so many good decent people living there. The city itself has so much going for it. Unfortunately it has a government and "leadership" that have proved that corruption and bad ideas are far more destructive than any natural disaster ever could be.
You were so right. Criminals run the city. I do go to that In-N-Out in Alameda now. Thank you for your nice comments and thank you for watching. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
You are so right. This is sad. I love In-N-Out Burger and I used to go here every Friday night as a date night with my wife. But now we have to figure something else out. No one likes change. And that in and out has a full-time security guard I need to make another video about that. How much money does In-N-Out, pay to have a empty building guarded by a full-time security guard company? Thank you again for watching and thank you again for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye
Yes I was surprised too. But with all the security guards there full-time that won’t last long. I mean the security guards they can’t pay for them now that minimum wage is $20 an hour for fast food workers I can’t imagine what it is for security guards? Thank you again for watching. Thank you for your comments. Stay strong and healthy and don’t bet anything you can’t lose. 123 stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
You were so right. I need to go by there and see what it looks like today. It’s been a few weeks since I’ve been by there, but I stopped going by there because the security guards are doing such a great job. But how long can that last.? Thank you again for watching and thank you for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
Unfortunately, nobody is coming to Oakland . Everybody and their mama is moving out of Oakland if they can afford to. Oakland is not safe and Oakland is dirty and it stinks too. Thank you again for watching. Thank you for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
Yes, the old Oakland will never be back. Oakland has always been tough but now it’s dangerous and tough. Thank you again for watching. Thank you for your nice comment. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
Is that called Ebonics? Remember that mark Oakland made its own vocabulary! Now they are making their own news every night locally and across the nation people know what’s going on here and it’s not good. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
I had to get my magnifying glass out and see what kind of emoji you put out. Yes zombies for sure. Thank you for watching. Thank you for your nice comment. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
You are so right! The funny thing is is most of all my videos are about nothing. Jerry Seinfeld made a whole television career about a show about nothing. For some reason people keep watching this channel with videos about nothing? Some videos are good and some videos are bad. Kind of like, the viewers and comments. Thank you again for watching and thank you again for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
Unfortunately, you are right! But I don’t think our vote counts anymore. If you wouldn’t ask if you wouldn’t witnessed our last presidential election, something just wasn’t right with that so does our votes really count? Thank you again for watching and thank you for your nice comment. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
Good job Oakland ! The only In-N-Out to ever close, happened in your city. Oakland is Mad Max tier
You are right. It does look like mad Max. Some people say it’s worse than a third world.

Can't have shit in Oakland.

The criminals will still attempt to rob the closed in &out.

Wow, those are great stories. I’m glad you’re not working down there anymore? I hope you ever have to come back to Oakland again! Stay strong and healthy and thank you for your house comment
@@JoyCool1 I haven't worked for that company for 8 years, and they did move to Alameda my last year there.
Unfortunately, I am not far enough away from Oakland right now. So I still see the dysfunction on a fairly regular basis.
It's sad because it can be a really great place, and there are so many good decent people living there. The city itself has so much going for it. Unfortunately it has a government and "leadership" that have proved that corruption and bad ideas are far more destructive than any natural disaster ever could be.
You were so right. Criminals run the city. I do go to that In-N-Out in Alameda now. Thank you for your nice comments and thank you for watching. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
This is sad.
You are so right. This is sad. I love In-N-Out Burger and I used to go here every Friday night as a date night with my wife. But now we have to figure something else out. No one likes change. And that in and out has a full-time security guard I need to make another video about that. How much money does In-N-Out, pay to have a empty building guarded by a full-time security guard company? Thank you again for watching and thank you again for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye
Glad I didn’t bet you…😂😂😂
Yes I was surprised too. But with all the security guards there full-time that won’t last long. I mean the security guards they can’t pay for them now that minimum wage is $20 an hour for fast food workers I can’t imagine what it is for security guards? Thank you again for watching. Thank you for your comments. Stay strong and healthy and don’t bet anything you can’t lose. 123 stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
You just issued a challenge to these idiots.
You were so right. I need to go by there and see what it looks like today. It’s been a few weeks since I’ve been by there, but I stopped going by there because the security guards are doing such a great job. But how long can that last.? Thank you again for watching and thank you for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
Maybe Chic-fi-let coming next!
Unfortunately, nobody is coming to Oakland . Everybody and their mama is moving out of Oakland if they can afford to. Oakland is not safe and Oakland is dirty and it stinks too. Thank you again for watching. Thank you for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
I miss Oakland!! RAIDERSSSSSSSSSS!!!!
Yes, the old Oakland will never be back. Oakland has always been tough but now it’s dangerous and tough. Thank you again for watching. Thank you for your nice comment. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
@@JoyCool1 i gave 19 years of my life to OAKLAND..from los angeles to OAKLAND!! RAIDERSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!
Oakmalia
Is that called Ebonics? Remember that mark Oakland made its own vocabulary! Now they are making their own news every night locally and across the nation people know what’s going on here and it’s not good. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
🧟♂️🧟♂️🧟♂️🧟♂️🧟♂️
I had to get my magnifying glass out and see what kind of emoji you put out. Yes zombies for sure. Thank you for watching. Thank you for your nice comment. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
A video about nothing
You are so right! The funny thing is is most of all my videos are about nothing. Jerry Seinfeld made a whole television career about a show about nothing. For some reason people keep watching this channel with videos about nothing? Some videos are good and some videos are bad. Kind of like, the viewers and comments. Thank you again for watching and thank you again for your nice comments. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
Yeah, Keep voting Democrat.
Unfortunately, you are right! But I don’t think our vote counts anymore. If you wouldn’t ask if you wouldn’t witnessed our last presidential election, something just wasn’t right with that so does our votes really count? Thank you again for watching and thank you for your nice comment. Stay strong and healthy. Bye-bye.
