Perhaps not the main theme but I'm not sure how to reconcile this article against several reports showing Oakland police budget increased about 18% from 2019 to 2022. https://abc7news.com/defund-police-oakland-crime-shooting/12311750/

I don't doubt there are issues with OPD, but if budget did indeed increase and safety of the city is worse what's driving the OPD inability to respond to a increase in crime?

Regardless, I applaud this man for trying to make a difference. We need more like him.
