Oakland police do nothing but protect those businesses tht pay protection
money. I ride by a place all of the time that used to be a Costco but is
now some other type of box store. At the entrance top the lot is a police
car with its lights flashing.. If theives loot the place I don't think
that he would actually shoot anyone but jump in the car and leave. You
wouldn't want to be a witness.
 

 
You lot certainly need to move considering the problems with crime and what
not you have!

 
I keep telling him that.   :-/

 
Some people aren't so timid as to let the bad guys run them out.
 

Meh I or Frank aren’t the ones complaining of crime, london is far from
crime free as you’d expect from a city that size and also is variable.

What's wrong with complaining about crime? It seems to me that it's
one way to facilitate official efforts to reduce crime.
