Gavin Newsom wants to make America Oakland

Gavin Newsom. YECH.

I swear. This unctuous, gleamy toothed, malevolent creature just gives me the willies. He reminds me so much of that anti-Christ-like cult leader in “The Stand,” Randall Flagg. All I see is evil personified every time he hits my monitor.

How does California re-elect someone like that? Do they all have Stockholm Syndrome?

Are they all brainwashed?

Or is it a combination of indoctrination and abuse that allows them to countenance such an overlord and his minions.

How do they live like this?

Amid a surge in crime in Oakland, California, police have advised residents to use air horns to alert neighbors to intruders and add security bars to their doors and windows.https://t.co/NNzP0EKaip

The CNN report is just ghastly. One woman is crying her heart out as she leaves a place she’s spent her whole life is. I should say, “Is forced to leave.”

But I also wonder who she’s been voting for all these years as things went south.

"I can't take it anymore. I was too scared to leave my house," says Kristin Cook, moving out of #Oakland

Gangs are targeting Asian families. We keep hearing that’s a problem – a racist problem – but you never hear who’s doing it, although we’ve all seen the videos.

Oakland PD put out a public safety advisory last month recommending reinforcing doors—because armed robbers are just kicking them down in broad daylight home invasions now.

Apparently, no other *conceivable* options to stop a "small group of criminals" exist https://t.co/tg4Wb4QU9y

And then, when perpetrators are caught in these racially targeted crimes? What happens in Newsom’s CA to offenders, when they are arrested for RACIST crimes against innocent people, usually elderly, who can’t defend themselves?

Oakland, California. Yesterday, just moments before the trial began, Black activist District Attorney Pamela Price reduced the charges for two African American suspects accused of robbing and murdering an Asian man in March 2021. Price's office dropped special circumstance… pic.twitter.com/kNuGPTSdHo

Why…little to nothing. Because the bad guys are victims.

The Alameda County district attorney has reduced charges against two men accused in the March 2021 killing of a 75-year-old man in Oakland.

The announcement came just before the trial began, and it has reopened old wounds for members of the local Asian community.

“In this case, we are saying we are very concerned that they will be paroled and coming out and hurting people again,” said community activist Carl Chan.

The Mercury News reported DA Pamela Price’s office, minutes before the start of trial Monday, dropped special circumstance allegations that, upon conviction, would have meant longer prison terms for both defendants.

…Both defendants have long criminal records. But those who have followed Price over the years, especially during her successful campaign for DA, should not be surprised by Monday’s events.

She ran on a progressive platform aimed at reforming a judicial system she says is rooted in racism.

The problems with mass incarceration enhancements are at the heart of mass incarceration, and those of us who have studied this problem, and the remedies for it, understand that the use of enhancements has devastated Black and brown communities,” said Price.

Those two thugs murdered a 75 year old Asian gentleman. The one cretin had attacked older fellows before. Nothing like going for the easy marks.

In Newsom’s CA, everyone who isn’t a protected class is an easy mark.

1/3 The Boudin era compounded by #ThePriceDiscount. The murderer here, committed a SF home invasion robbery of Zhi Cheng Shi, 72, on 2/29/2021. He was RELASED on home supervision by Boudin. A month later, this man went to Oakland and killed Pak Ho, 75, in another robbery. https://t.co/A1Yg6Hwvwb pic.twitter.com/i0D2XbOzLM

Especially when you know there’s not much downside, even if you mess up and the old guy dies.

The NAACP is calling for more cops. Who’d you vote for all these years, brother? “Failed leadership,” “defund the police” – these aren’t new programs or causes, dude. You had to have had some part in encouraging them, even tacitly through your silence, but forgive me if I find it hard to believe the NAACP was ever silent on either of those.

Oakland NAACP chapter is calling for more cops on the streets:

Let me say it loud for the cheap seats – Progressives are not good people. They do not have good intentions nor good programs, however much they try to ram both down your throat because you refuse to believe them and roll over.

Newsom’s CA is literally a seething, flaming cesspool of human misery and criminality.

And he’s dying to bring Oakland…and San Francisco…and LA…to a neighborhood near you.

He thinks we’re easy marks.

For people who have never been there, Oakland is a festering anus of crime, graffiti, homeless encampments, and dilapidated buildings. It is truly post-apocalyptic, and paradoxically it sits on prime real-estate smack-dab in the middle of the north bay which is otherwise fairly affluent.

How does California re-elect someone like that?

Three minutes after the polls closed, Newscum announced he had won. It is not who votes that counts, it is who counts the votes. Besides hundreds of 'drop boxes' for ballots, Newscum placed the printable ballot on the internet about a week before the election. He stated he did it to ensure 'access' to voting. Anyone could print, print, print.

Any wonder why the Oakland A’s is getting the hell out of Dodge?

How far along are the Oakland A.s in moving to Las Vegas?

I’d love to see that happen!

Crime stories in the news have one peculiar recurring theme, the victims are unwilling or unable to defend themselves. Anti-gun liberals try to negotiate with a pack of thugs ransacking the house, or a shopkeeper doesn’t want to be the one arrested. It’s the government that allows, foments, and encourages all of this.

I agree, Newsom has a demonic, twisted appearance. If his character appeared at the beginning of a movie you would know he was the bad guy instantly.

The A’s have tentatively agreed to buy property in Las Vegas to build a stadium. The move is pretty much a done deal.

So we can flee the country like the Raiders and The A’s fled Oakland.
