Just another Tuesday in Oakland...

It's Oakland so nobody is surprised if we're being honest

This is America. I'm sure this will not be the only graduation ceremony to be shot up across the states.

@@ivandragomiloff2356 you a damn foo. That’s like saying no where on earth is safe. 😂 why you think we only rep north east and west Oakland. You don’t truly understand the wealth distribution from the hills up top(suburbs) to the inner city. The Oakland you think of is all the inner city. Them folks in the hills look down on the inner city and vise versa(look up to). But it’s all Oakland

[@michaelmacpherson-wm6mh]

all around Oakland they have "shot spotters" ..some sort of device that notifies police when and where shots are fired. 98% of the shot spotter notifications are not called in by people in the neighborhood. what a sad place to live. I was born there, but we moved away soon after.

[@ladyfame1430]

So are Shot spotters for the police to be informed by some kind of electronic device? Or are they for the public as well....so then they can call the police? I’m confused sorry. My First time ever hearing of " shot spotters".

[@KonaLife]

@@ladyfame1430 there’s solely for the police.

[@michaelmacpherson-wm6mh]

@@ladyfame1430 shot spotters are tied into the police station, then cops go out and see if there is anything going on. the point is that hearing gunshots in Oakland is so commonplace nobody calls the cops.

[@deathwishdrang1780]

"So far police haven't briefed us on any details..." not much point to the story then, is there?

[@davidwhite4997]

This is truly a sad story. This should be a happy day for the graduates. In the past it has been drinking and drug abuse in celebration that has been the problem. I was back on 395 at graduation one year. Parents were dreading that their kids would not make it past the graduation celebrations. To now see people killing graduates is beyond terrible.

Does anything positive ever happen in Oakland? My god, I have never ever seen a more depressed city than what Oakland, California is today!

[@VegasD702]

But the people in Oakland ain't as depressed as you think. They still have fun and live life. It's not Birmingham Alabama

[@hyphydan]

@@VegasD702 Yeah there a lot less Blacks and more Central Americans and Chinese

[@eddiet204]

A shooting in Oakland- shocking….Theres a problem with this community and the root cause is people are doing a lousy job of raising their kids. Kids who end up carrying guns or grow up to be criminals with guns. Regardless, there are people who commit crime that are still good people, meaning they are not going to just pull out a gun and then end someone’s life over an argument.

Can someone familiar with bIack culture or the “hood” explain to me how these situations go down? What precedes these types of shootings minutes before gunfire erupts? How does the “fight” start? What is the “dispute” about? Im just having a hard time wrapping my head around how this sort of thing goes down or builds up to that point.
