    Great solution! Oakland should be more like Mad Max or Somalia or something. Good thing that people wouldn’t incur any risk by threatening groups of criminals with firearms, and shooting people doesn’t have any negative psychological impact.

      You’re right, what I’m suggesting would turn parts of California into a lawless wasteland shithole where you can’t leave your workplace for a lunch break. What was I thinking?

        Where have I seen that before? Oh that’s right, the movie Demolition Man. Can we please stop trying to emulate dystopian science fiction please. We’ve been too successful at it as is.

        I thought people were saying Oakland was already a lawless wasteland shithole where you can’t leave your workplace for a lunch break.
