Yup, good old Barbara Boxer attacked in Jack London Square yesterday. Weed stores next to police stations, mountains of homeless all over the Bay area, smells worse than a Spirit lav on a Haiti turn.

Ironic? Maybe expected. Only what 10 of us have been saying on here the last week while a few was praising the virtues of Oakland and the fabulous trails by the lake

Meanwhile, in reality, a former US Senator gets mugged at 1pm in the plain view of the public.

Ironic would be if she was able to go for a walk at 1pm in Oakland and not get mugged.

Lol it is ironic. I was saying there is plenty of stuff to do. I was just there for 30 hours and went down to Jack London Square at about this same time and didn’t feel unsafe at all. But whatever it’s a big city. It certainly isn’t the safest place you could be but I’m not going to sit couped up in my hotel room for 30 hours because of it.

You don’t think people get mugged every day in Tulsa or Texas or South Carolina?
What a stupid argument.
There’s 500,000 people in the city. You don’t think there’s crime?

Spot on. On oneside of every city there's tons of crime and that's what the majority are saying here. If norcal were a butt the anus would be oakland. It's a $hithole full of turds. Glad you finally see it.

I wouldn’t know. I haven’t opined on the topic. Just thought I’d throw some google stats out there, as people were getting emotional. (Not you)

That’s what the data you linked was showing. Just agreeing with the data.
