Dear Oakland - I’m writing today with a grave concern. While I don’t agree with many of the mayoral candidates positions - I can at least respect most of them as decent human beings trying to do what they believe is best for our Town. There is one candidate however that is Particularly dangerous. Dangerous and violent. Who aligns with right wing white supremacist ideology. Who regularly espouses hate for women of color and threatens them with violence. Who regurgitates misinformation as though they were facts.

Like you, we’re heartbroken & angry. We are also community members who are sick of these horrible acts of violence. But to call this “chickens coming home to roost” is callous, insensitive & appalling. @Nate_Miley, you should apologize for the insinuation.
