Asian American residents in Oakland Hills, California, are on high alert due to a string of home invasions targeting Asian families.

Police’s internal advisory: There have been about 50 home invasion robberies cases involving elderly Asian families, reported ABC7 News after obtaining an internal advisory from the Oakland Police Department. According to law enforcement, the robberies may be connected to a group of criminals.

Elderly victims: In one harrowing account, an 80-year-old man and his 69-year-old wife were at home with their two grandchildren when robbers broke through a window on Monday. The couple was reportedly held at gunpoint for about 40 minutes as robbers ransacked the house, escaping with $10,000 in cash and jewelry. The family has also previously dealt with three other attempted home invasions.

Another home invasion robbery: In another invasion, a cinematographer named Tony lost $40,000 in camera gear after robbers broke through his front door just before 4 a.m. in July. According to Tony, one of the robbers chased him with a knife before he managed to barricade the bedroom door while his wife dialed 911.

“We were just terrified. We were just screaming at the top of our lungs, hoping someone will hear us,” Tony told ABC 7 News. “With Asian hate crimes and everything, it was already hard to exist as an Asian in this community. And now it sounds even harder, you know?”

I judge people as individuals.

Good for you. I bet you pull over and help when you see a black motorist who's has a "flat tire" at 2am on the side of the road.

I’m not a cleric. I just took the name of Obama’s stupid pastor.

And when you have 12 percent of the population which does 60 percent of the violent crime, all the Boomer Con truth suppression in the world can’t make the victims of that crime wave go away.

“Asians seem intelligent on average in everything except politics.” like another high IQ group I could think of.


Book smarts vs street smarts, in the case of both high IQ minority groups.

One of the things Trump was really weak on was strict law enforcement.

Stop and frisk, three strikes, profiling, worked to dramatically lower the crime rate in the 1990’s and 2000’s.

And when Repubs supported that, black suppport was almost zero, for the same reason that the chickens don’t vote for Col Sanders.

Because middle easterners and all kinds of non far-east Asians are classified as “Asian.”

How about five “motorists” in the car ?

Pull over. You can help even more people.

If this sort of things keeps up, people will start implementing the three esses and leave the “authorities” out of the equation. The “authorities” will suddenly find themselves dealing with mysterious corpses (of criminals) that will keep unexpectedly turning up.

A greater percentage of Asians go to college vs other groups. The college brainwashed are more likely to vote leftist, regardless of skin color.

If you were to compare Asian blue collar workers to White or Hispanic blue collar, it would be much closer.

The cops out there have got it figured out!

Yes, these black criminals are just asking for the return of the tong, triads, and yakuza. They’re going to find out the hard way that black lives really don’t matter in the bigger scheme of things.

Blacks are a very diverse group.

They include top-notch and down-right rotten people.

The majority are people just trying to survive by honest means just like the majority of people posting here.

The percentage taking the rotten road has to be decreased by Mayor Giuliani methods.

California is a legal mess. Perhaps California jurisdictions should be able to pick from time to time their own federal circuit court organization to handle matters not involving federal taxation.

Also I think Asians culturally are more accepting of authoritarian governments.

That is not true. My brother-in-law was a doctor in Uganda for 3 decades. My sister loved living there. But the Brits were in charge then. When the Brits left and Uganda became independent, my sister and her husband left Africa and came to United States.

Safety deposit boxes have their own set of issues. There has been a rise in “jugging”. People follow likely targets home from the bank or their place of business and rob them.

Definitely. East Asians are brought up with a Confucian-worship the government-mindset. That’s why most Asian governments are authoritarian, whether communist, monarchist, or facist.
