Thugs in California begin to target assisted living homes, some reports suggest as many as 30 seniors attacked in less than a week from one facility

Civilization in the Bay Area continues to unravel at an alarming rate.

Checking in on California and we find that civilization continues to unravel at an alarming rate, but nowhere is that more obvious than taking a look at the Bay Area. Here’s the latest, from an item out at a local outlet:

Thirteen senior citizens reported being brutally attacked and robbed in just one week in an Oakland community. But according to leaders at one senior living facility in the city, they say the number is much higher and closer to an astounding 30.

‘It was happening every hour on the hour,’ says Sister Marie Taylor, president of the Westlake Christian Terrace resident council. She says she’s counted nearly 30 violent attacks and robberies on elderly Asian residents in a span of less than a week.

According to the article, residents of the assisted living facility number more than 700, and the average age is 85 years old; when venturing out to grocery shop or run other errands, they’ve been robbed and “brutally” beaten by prowling thugs. The solution? Well, from the ever-so-helpful local government:

Oakland Police say there was a spike in robberies citywide with 83 between June 25th and July 1st. However they say there is no particular reason for the surge. They’re urging elders to walk in larger groups and to do so only during the daytime.

“No particular reason” my rear end. Under Democrat reign, criminals have been emboldened to the nth degree; and why shouldn’t they be? They’ve been given a pass for any and all theft that doesn’t break the $950 threshold; they’ve seen judges, courts, and juries abuse their authority and trust to punish political opponents; they’re let off the hook because of their skin color and “reparative justice”...

I thought there were felonies and additional punishments for attacking seniors.

Surveys have shown seniors support Biden increasingly.

My brain filters everything through politics.

As far back as the 1970s, Oakland had a bad rep.

I never refer to them as the “Democratic” Party. I use Democrat. There is nothing Democratic about them.

...violent attacks and robberies on elderly Asian residents

Must not be Korean or there'd be armed relatives on the roof.

Kill them with extreme prejudice. Leave their rotting corpses as a warning to others.

Obviously more de-funding of the police is necessary.

The Bay Area.

Sucks to be a senior citizen there. Sucks to be any citizen there.

They made their choices.

Our retarded citizens continue to elect politicians that are determined to keep them disarmed.

The elderly are easy prey in this state as they've been conditioned to not consider arming themselves for protection.

Not to mention that the criminal element has a real distaste for asians in the first place.

All of America’s woke leftist social-engineering schemes assume on one thing without question - high societal trust.

but ironically, the more leftists work, the more they destroy societal trust.

Now, those few facilities with enough money, will need to hire Security Guards and an SUV Driver to drive these elders to the grocery store, vs expecting them to walk the distance.

Many elders who are in the habit of walking to the store want to take that opportunity to get out independently for a short while. They wish to pass by familiar sites in their community, maybe even see a friend or two along the way.
They do not wish to be coccooned, cloistered and forgotten while still living in their neighborhoods.

At this point we have to assume California is enemy territory.
