This term progressive… who is that ? What defines a progressive?

PROOF: PAM PRICE POLICIES NOT WORKING. The chart on the left, before DA Price arrived, criminals went to prison in Alameda County at the same rate as all of California.

I wonder what percentage of those signatures are due to her ethnicity and gender and thus selfish concern(individual not county/state/level) ?
Tonight I went to an event titled "Know Your District Attorney," featuring the current embattled Alameda County District Attorney, Pamela Price. Price is currently facing a formal recall by the citizens of Alameda county.

Why do criminals consistently choose firearms? The answer lies in District Attorney Pam Price's failure to pursue gun enhancements. While she voices concerns about the abundance of guns on the streets, She doesn't have the ability to comprehend that the lack of consequences for… https://t.co/Ho5UbdIUjh

Berkeley smoke shop robbed at gunpoint again

More than 30 iPhones snatched in Berkeley Apple Store theft

On her way inside, I asked DA Price directly if she could let me in. She said I had to talk to her media director. (He’s the one who had just told me there was nothing he could do.) In 20 years as a professional, full-time reporter I have never experienced anything like this.

They are not being stolen just for kicks. They know Apple isn't in the business of hunting down stolen phones or even bothering to block them. They are sold whole or for parts. The real idiot is the person who buys it to use and then can't get it activated anywhere.

Sure, but there is a GPS in them so it's easy to find out where they ended up. Maybe Apple doesn't hunt them down but the police should. That is grand theft. I doubt these thieves are using a Faraday cage back at the crib.

If the I phone is less than $950 in California, it is a petty theft misdemeanor. Are you going to get a warrant, so you can give someone a parking ticket while they laugh at you and refuse to give ID while their friends are filing you hoping they can taunt you and get you angry enough to break protocol?

It is petty theft if you steal ONE phone. THIRTY were stolen.

Ideology aside, this all just demonstrates that Price is bad at her job. How can her team not see that this move is going to create more trouble than it's worth? Just an awful read of the politics; they are making a star out of the person they tried to freeze out.bearister said:I was just turned away from an announced press conference with elected @AlamedaCountyDA Pamela Price.

Cal Bear Emilie Raguso barred by Madame DA from a press conference. Smacks of a 1st Amendment violation to me.
I will post Emilie's Berkeley Scanner story that I assume she will pen.
