Passing a kidney stone is better...
Any city under the corrupt, criminal democrat party yoke eventually becomes uninhabitable.
LOL at the comments section, especially from el_polacko, it’s worth repeating:
“amusing to note how the barack-voting ‘progressives’ just LOVE the black ‘community’ until they have to live near them. then they go running to the whitest place they can find. even if it’s 40 miles away. it’s “worth it”.
Read the comments. Some idiot suggested they have compassion instead of fear. Others think its the victims fault for having their stuff stolen.
San Francisco has more fruits and nuts.
Big mistake to live in a leftist paradise.

Funny thing is, moral at OPD is waaaay better than at SFPD; you GET CAUGHT doing bad stuff in Oakland, and they the cops will **** you up big time —not true in SF.
It’s simply that Oakland has sooooooooo many poor, malevolent blacks looking to vicimize anyone with stuff, or just anyone.
Oakland, Detroit, Gary-Indiana, Brownsville-Brooklyn: available homes for just one dollar but only in the cities noted, which city would you pick?/Just Asking - seoul62......
Lived in the Bay Area for my undergraduate. Don’t miss it a bit. Noone ever took personal responsibility for everything and the whole place was a mess.
Lovely weather though.
I worked in nearby San Leandro a few years and my ex-secretary, a gun-hating liberal, lived in a Lake Merritt high-rise apartment. One day she came to work and asked me to help her select a pistol. Frankly shocked, I asked her why.
She lived on the 7th floor and had left her apartment to come to work. After she got to the elevator she thought of something she needed, so went back and unlocked her door. To her surprise she found a guy pawing through her stuff. She let out a terrified scream and started yelling. The man ran through the French doors to the patio and scrambled down, Spider Man-like, patio to patio with her screaming her head off. He hit the ground running and disappeared.
After that we spent some pleasant time at the local gun range as she learned to use her new revolver. She did move to a safer place not long afterward. Unfortunately the lesson didn't "take." She's still a bleeding heart San Francisco liberal who thinks Pelosi's wonderful.
Liberals believe in their fellow man rather than God. And that gets you....
But a gas station robbery on Piedmont Avenue, just blocks from my apartment, finally confirmed for me what shopkeepers and residents here had known for years: The violence in Oakland is relentless. During that assault, a stray bullet hit a young boy practicing piano at a nearby music school; the child was paralyzed, the community stunned. Restaurant robberies followed in quick succession, terrorizing diners in Oakland, Emeryville and Montclair.
Finally, she flees. But she has to be talked into it not by a normal person, but rather....
An eccentric old friend finally persuaded me to do the unthinkable: move to Marin County. It would mean driving over the Richmond Bridge to work, spending untold hours in traffic. For me to give up a walker's manna to commute 40 miles a day spewing exhaust and wasting money on fuel and tolls was ludicrous. But that's how bad it is in Oakland.
The other thing that came to mind reading this is that Oakland is how the Left wants us to live. They don't want people to have the freedom to choose to drive 40 miles to work--think of the greenhouse gases! If it were up to the Left, this woman would be SOL. Choice? That's for pregnancies.
There is a simple solution. Making California a “shall issue” CCW state would clear all off this mess up in a couple of years.
If she respected Dellums she still needs to grow up. She still can’t connect the dots of liberal leadership and communities not fit to live in. Are these people blind?
Another Mormonphobe...
