They DO mean “crime suppression” plan, and not “crime” plan, don’t they?

Someone remind me, how many years have Republicans been running Oakland?

Ever been to Oakland? Might as well go to Rowanda.

It's amazing to me that anyone will work at a liquor store or any high value target area in these hell holes.

These animals are drawn to these things like tornadoes to a trailer park.

This being a liberal area of CA, more concealed carry permits is just not going to be part of the plan.

Effective everywhere it has been tried, these dummies would do anything to not allow a citizen to defend himself.

I am glad I moved to Oregon last year.

Some one once told me “ An armed society is a polite society “ sounds Oakland is a place where you could practice this concept.

Wonder if they can shoot back when Nation of Islam thugs come in to bust up their liquor merchandise?

armed bandits brazenly bursting into restaurants in some of the city's more affluent areas during dinner hours.

This just ain't right. Affluent areas?

‘The notion that restaurateurs, theater owners and soon enough, even moviegoers will be packing guns is too much to fathom in a place like Oakland or anywhere else in the Bay Area.
It’s the antithesis of why we live here, why so many people love it and the very foundation on which our modern culture is built.
Most Oakland residents are like the people in Livermore, Belvedere and Redwood City. By California standards, we’re law-abiding citizens who don’t have guns in our homes and don’t want armed guards on our city streets.”
Fools!

Oakland police chief to reveal crime plan — after one of HIS criminals gets nailed by one of those ‘scumbag civilians’! Why wasn’t he concerned before the civilians decided to protect themselves — some jealousy, perhaps? Try putting the criminals away for good, instead of running your revolving door at the jail, and make Oakland the place it should be instead of Looter’s ATM.

****

It’s also why so many criminals love it, too...
