SAN FRANCISCO, THE SANCTUARY CITY FOR CRIMINALS AS WELL AS FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS

The ability of criminals to break into cars and take whatever they want without any consequences has bitten the City of San Francisco in the butt

A few weeks ago we reported here at Pacovilla.com about the Sanctuary City of San Francisco’s apparent decision to accept car burglaries as “non-criminal activity.”

The ability of criminals to break into cars and take whatever they want without any consequences has bitten the city in the butt.

Just as the failure to retain an illegal alien resulted in the murder of a young lady in San Francisco, the failure to follow up on a car burglar has resulted in the death of a young man in Oakland.

Here are highlights from an article from the Los Angeles Times:

Man charged in the death of muralist shot while painting anti-violence art in Oakland

An anti-violence artist fatally shot while painting a mural in Oakland was killed with a gun stolen from a federal immigration agent, local media reported Wednesday.

In an interview with the San Francisco Chronicle, San Francisco Police Department Chief Greg Suhr said that when Oakland police investigated Antonio Ramos’ slaying, they found the murder weapon matched a gun reported stolen by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent in San Francisco.

San Francisco police officials said the gun was stolen Sept. 13 between 7:30 p.m. and 9:15 p.m. near 2nd and South Park streets while the agent was away from his SUV.

Someone smashed the passenger-side front window and stole the agent’s Glock handgun and other personal items, police said. Sometime after that, authorities say the weapon ended up in the hands of Oakland resident Marquese Holloway.

Holloway, 20, was charged Tuesday with one count of murder, two counts of attempted robbery and three separate robbery charges, according to the Alameda County Superior Court criminal complaint.

He was arrested Friday in Stockton by U.S. Marshals in connection with a string of robberies in late September and early October. He’s accused of robbing two separate groups who had been filming on Oct. 5 in Oakland, according to his arrest warrant.

The Emeryville artist was working on a project led by the Attitudinal Healing Connection. He and a group of other artists had been painting a mural conceptualized by middle-school students in West Oakland. For the project, the students had re-imagined themselves as superheroes to help solve issues in their communities (for full story read http://tinyurl.com/novxd9y.)


It appears that this murder can be traced back to a car burglary in San Francisco that may have been lost in the lax criminal justice efforts in the Sanctuary City.

Ironically the victim was trying to show children something about Non-Violence. It seems San Francisco inadvertently contributed to the tragic lesson learned by the muralist and the children.

Not only did the Sanctuary City disease metastasize and spread like a cancer to Oakland, it moved on to Stockton as well. A few robberies here and there rounded out the a pattern of crimes related to one event spawned in San Francisco’s “enforcement-free zone.”

Some in San Francisco may be whistling past the graveyard, but others are not so lucky. Unfortunately the political hacks responsible for the spread of this Sanctuary cancer will not be held accountable.

Where will the cancer spread to next? Maybe a neighborhood near you. The progressive agenda continues to leave dead bodies in its wake.

Years and years ago S F had a massive problem with auto burglary, to the point it was scaring the tourists away. The avoided the problem by calling it something else officially (I forget what exactly) and miraculously "auto burglary" dropped to almost zero overnight. Of course the activity continued, it was just called something else and it allowed the politicians to pretend it wasn't happening. Playing pretend is great for five-year olds. For the people running a major city it is stupid, dangerous and ultimately self-defeating.

Several years ago Texas made Burglary of a Motor Vehicle a misdemeanor. Guess what? BMV is now rampant.
