Because Pamela Price, Brooke Jenkins and London Breed have a transbay cartel they run, with gangs and thugs and drug dealers, many of whom actually SURPRISE are family members of these three thugs themselves. In fact, London Breed (mayor of SF) tried to throw her weight to the state and pressured San Quintin to release her brother, whos incarcerated for MURDER. She wanted HIM out. So if you ask me, birds of a feather flock together (criminals, race, ideals, etc) and that leads me to believe that all three of them are working against the common people and good, because they're feeling that it's racist a murderer or violent African Americans are incarcerated and the public is DEMANDING actions against crime no matter the race. But to these three, it's more important to keep crime rampant while they're in office to serve as payback for the imprisonment of criminals who, no surprise here, are representative of their own culture and race. It's a sick thing very similar to Clarence Thomas whos sole goal in SCOTUS was to deny any and every civil right to all because of the non-racist non-civil rights issues he faced (none, he lived a very wealthy privileged life) yet because of the ethnic background of having melanin more than others, he wants to punish collectively all of America for punishment America puts on African Americans who legit engage in criminal behavior. Essentially the goal is to destroy the nation from the inside so no one can ever enjoy it, because of what happened hundreds of years ago that hasn't affected a single person alive or dead for 200 years!!!
I vote for National Guard presence. Crime is getting out of hand. Oakland probably needs an extra 100 police officers and 20 more 911 call center staff. When it comes to crime, convervative policies must be adopted.

Close your business, for same reason above. 5. Arrest and convict at an aggressive rate: will need new DA, but need to send the message to criminals.
I choose # 3; I now live within a safe area thats not the Bay Area, Unless I'm going for a day, I don't lock the door nor do I have bars on my doors or windows; you choose; y'all need to stop complaining and MOVE. Changing the city government and law enforcement now is a lost cause. Check back with me in Jan 2025 with long term changes that have been made by YOUR city; it's common sense y'all.
If this keeps happening, and law enforcement can’t do crap. Some entrepreneurs offering bounty hunting protection services are going to rise regardless if it’s legal or not. Start protecting our businesses.
First of all this isn’t a Law Enforcement issue. This a voters, voting these crimes to be a lesser charge in crime. So arresting them isn’t going to fix anything. They’ll be released to do the exact same thing. So why should police arrest these people to poss get investigated for doing their job right? These thugs have more rights than the citizens. Listen to these council members. Sounds like the citizens wanted to protect a class of people. So now they needs to live in their laws they voted for. Welcome to crime ridden Oakland. Yes, the mayor supported all those laws, those thugs. So now she, and DA price are doing what they promised. Criminal reform. How does that taste now? A little bitter?
Why is oakland so upset? Isn't this the dream paradise utopia they directly voted for? They should be celebrating because their dreams have come true!!!
The only way it is going to change is if the parents are held accountable and to higher standards of raising human beings. The cops will never stop it. The parents could care less about there children. That is what we are wittnessing everytime this happens.
Not sure the statistics on kids in Oakland with both parents working and showing them right from wrong, or how many have parents in prisons or murdered. You are absolutely right parents need to take responsibility instead of blaming everyone else but themselves. Some folks really should not procreate! I grew up in East Oakland and went to the ghetto schools. Never did I blame society nor did I expect free handouts. Started working as soon as I turned 16, and worked to put myself through graduate school. Until everyone takes responsibility for their own actions or be held accountable for committing crimes, the situation in Oakland will not improve.
The guy says he doesn't want soldiers walking the streets with guns but he is perfectly fine with criminals walking the streets with guns. Yeh makes sense😒
I lived in Oakland for five years. The first time I heard gun shots, I did not hear sirens. No police. However the next morning I had a parking ticket. Oakland police priorities.

Actually, you have to feel sorry for people like Dan Kalb. He has believed a certain ideology his entire life and really really wants to make it work. But it doesn't and never will. Why? Because it works against the goodness and hope that good people have in their hearts. They can only be stepped on and victimized so much before they say, "Fine, I'm outta here." What you're left with are the people who do nothing good for society. Dan Kalb and people like him fuel the problems. They might have good intentions and seem kind, but we all see the real life results.
The majority of Oakland citizens and all of the Oakland politicians supported policies that encouraged this increase in crimes (i.e. criminal justice reform and defund the police).
The DA is more concern about the criminals welfare than the victims sufferings.
Well, duh, you wonder why it's called Criminal Justice and Criminal Reform?
That's exactly the way it sounded.
Bet that disconnected councilman gets a pass 😂😂 hilarious

It’s not “feet on the ground”. The same criminals are reoffending again and again. Oakland needs to prosecute and enforce lengthy sentences.
