Welcome to Oakland. Welcome to the Bay Area! I hope it is not a Rusty Roller Coaster. You have a lot of people to meet. Good luck!
Welcome to the Bay Area Chief Mitchell.
First thing first. He needs a Psychological Eval for taking that job 😆

He will save Joketown and become mayor and then governor.

This is not an easy job. We know that Oakland has had a lot of problems over the years that have multiplied. I want to wish the best of luck to officer Mitchell and hope that he can be the police chief that Oakland needs.
Now Oakland 911 calls will go unanswered.
Same petty crime and same lawyers making money

Positive comments !!!!??? Those are safe space words. This is Oakland!!! not Saucelleto or Gurnville or the wine country. There's there's nothing here to TOAST to!!! We have lost our Basket Ball and our beloved Foot Ball Team and sooner or later our Base Ball Team!!! You're not from Oakland. Every body who lives in Oakland is TOAST!!! We need a more hard core Mayor more police more prosecution lawyers longer jail time and more jails. Kinda like El Salvador!!! We're Thru Being Cool!!! Stay in your lane!!!!
Why does he look like most of the criminals in Oakland?

Because you racially profile.
What they should do is only people that from the city should become the chief of their city because you know your own city
