A California district attorney has claimed that allegations that she has soft-on-crime policies are actually racist attacks against her.
Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price and some of her supporters slammed Oakland residents who have been complaining that crime is too high in the major California city and that the DA is not doing enough.
In addition to dismissing these locals’ concerns as "racism," Price and her allies claimed the elected official is being unfairly treated by a disenfranchised community.
[The DA] ran for office on a progressive platform of what some call "restorative justice." ***

"We're very worried about where Oakland is and we're scared. Some of us are scared to go to the lake or just go shopping. You have to think twice about it when you go to the grocery store," Gina Rivera admitted.
Another Oakland citizen at the rally, Lynne Cooper, accused the city of not enforcing the law.
However, Price slammed these concerns against city officials and herself as politically and racially motivated. CBS News quoted her as saying, "That's racism. I'm calling it for what it is."
She added, "If you believe the media hype, I went from a well-respected lawyer and businesswoman with 40 years of experience in this community to a bumbling, incompetent idiot who knew nothing about the law or the criminal justice system."
Price supporter Erin Coffey defended the DA, telling the outlet, "There is a lot of upset in the community and there's -- among the youth -- a lot of disenfranchisement. That's not Pamela Price. We live in a world right now when things are very difficult for many people, partly because the criminal justice system has been so unfair, so far."

Swiffer.
It’s amazing how Soros churned out these progressive DAs and got them elected in a wave across the country. They are undermining civilian authority and destabilizing society. Quite a feat
+1
Another useless DA.
Democrat DA’s only prosecute Republicans.
It’s wacist to point out that all your crime is committed by a minority race. SMH...
The answer to high crime is easy. Provide protection for the people in government who are releasing the criminals.
It looks like she’s wearing the Oakland version of an English court wig.
Here is a question. How many DA’s and AG’s are funded by Soros? And broken down by race? I’m willing to bet the idiot below is the norm, not the outlier.
Now we know how the cocaine got into the White House (what is that thing on her head?)

Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Y. Price is a graduate of Yale College and UC Berkeley Law School,
************************************************************
That she’s black, a graduate of Marxist led Yale and UC Berkeley Law, and her record as Alameda County DA is all you need to know about Mizz Price.
But, again, the voters voted her into office so next time a feral attacks you or your family suck it up.
JUST WHEN YOU THINK THAT SHE COULDN’T GET ANY DUMBER
SHE PROVES YOU WRONG-—AGAIN
A WIG.
WITHOUT Black women as customers-—WIG sales in the USA would be smaller than ghetto cleaning supplies sales.
But just don’t defend yourself because that would be racist.
Affirmative Action in action.
Evil idiots only need apply.
I told her to stop putting her fingers in physicists.
CBS News quoted her as saying, “That’s racism. I’m calling it for what it is.”
