Two Men Arrested In the Oakland Body Burning Case

This is a cold blooded world now days. On July 14, 2011 Monica Rodas from Union City body was found burning in the street of Rockridge neighborhood of Oakland. This was the act of cold blooded individuals, to set a body on fire and throw it on to the street like a piece of trash. Oakland Homicide investigators have been questioning the two men about the murder. I feel so sad for Monica Rodas two year old son, his mother will not get to see him son grow up. I sure hope they got the right men who done this heinous act. These two individuals need to be off the streets so this will not happen to anyone else by these two evil individuals.

OAKLAND COULD BE THE FIRST CITY TO MARIJUANA GROWING OPERATIONS




I have been saying they need to legalize Marijuana for years. All the illegal Marijuana operations that have been raided and all that Marijuana being burned, It does not make since, that billions of dollars is going up in smoke. On July 12, 2010 police raided a Marijuana growing operation in San Francisco and Richmond California. This bust is said to have a street value of  about $350,000.


This country is hurting  financially I think Oakland has the right idea.
If Oakland’s council votes this through this would mean jobs, that are so badly needed. I don’t think the illegal pot growers should benefit anymore, it’s about time to legalize Marijuana just like they did alcohol 1933. I think the powers to be, the Government need to get the stick out of their A.. and legalize Marijuana.

OAKLAND TEACHER WALK OUT

OAKLAND TEACHER WALK OUT

People say our children are our future. What’s going on in Oakland school district, is nothing new. This has been going on all over the country for years. Teachers walking out because they have not had a raise in years or working without a contract. How are our children supposed to get the education they need, when teachers are walking out.

I feel for the teachers, because it’s hard enough to make ends meet on a teachers salary, let alone not getting a raise with the cost of living going up. How are our teachers all over this country supposed to go to work and give our children a good education  when they are fed up. Not giving a hundred percent to our children is not acceptable. Something needs to be done about this crisis, because if not then the future of our children is at stake. If that means higher taxes then so be it, because our future is in the hands of our youth.

OAKLAND SECURITY GUARD SHOT DEAD


Less than a week before Christmas a family in Oakland will be grieving the loss of a husband, father and friend. A 59 year old security guard was gun down by two suspects, at the AutoZone near intersection of 101st avenue and International Boulevard Saturday night around 7pm. This was Oakland’s106th homicide this year. The total at the end of last year was 125. This security was supposed to have the day off, but he took someone’s place that was sick. It’s a sad situation, when your trying to do a good deed and you lose your life by such a meaning less crime. The suspects are still a large. I can only imagine how the person who called in sick is feeling. I hope and prey these two suspects are caught and made to pay for their crime and the family gets some justice.
