The citizens of Oakland are collectively responsible for the never-ending lawlessness in their city. Time and time again they elect mayors, city council members, judges and DA's who enact policies and make judgments that treat criminals as victims and victims as the problem. However, the chances that Oakland voters will vote for candidates that are actually willing to do what it takes to significantly reduce crime and hold criminals accountable for their actions is nil, and so their problem will only continue to grow. Cities generally have the amount of crime that they are willing to tolerate, and clearly the people of Oakland are willing to tolerate a lot of it.
