Oakland Black Police Officers Association escorts Oakland seniors on a shopping trip

According to this article in the Oakland Tribune, the police officers had to accompany/guard the vulnerable and fragile seniors because they are being targeted by thugs in their neighborhoods. They were being robbed while waiting for buses. How revolutionary these thugs are to mug and rob Black seniors. Really stickin' it to the man!

When I talked to one of my co-workers about it, she started in with the predictable liberal tripe. "Oh it's so great that the police did that!" So I said, "It's monstrous that they have to do it at all!" Co-worker said, "Well people are so desperate for jobs." I said, "There are plenty of jobs out there, these kids just think they are too good for them." Co-worker said, "Yes, that's true, you are probably right."

Over in the corner one of the Chinese co-workers was listening to our conversation. Later when I went to use the phone, he asked me more about the story and wanted to know exactly where and when it happened. He just shook his head in horror and amazement.
