‘I Urge You To Reconsider’: Gavin Newsom Pleads With Crime-Ridden City To Allow More Police Chases

Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom sent a letter to Oakland city officials on Friday asking them to change their policy regarding the pursuit of criminals amid soaring crime.

Newsom sent the letter to Oakland’s mayor, city council and police department encouraging officials to take a harsher position on crime and allow for criminals to be pursued when fleeing officers, which Newsom points out that the current policy does not allow. Current Oakland police protocol only allows for criminals to be chased under strict circumstances, such as when a firearm is involved, but does not warrant pursuit in most other cases, even for violent misdemeanors.

“CHP has brought to my attention that they observed criminals often fleeing with impunity because it’s common knowledge that the Oakland Police Department’s (“OPD”) pursuit policy allows vehicle pursuits in only very limited circumstances,” Newsom wrote in the letter. “I urge you to reconsider whether OPD should be permitted to pursue suspects in more circumstances.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Ol' Gavi is one of the major causes of out-of-control crime in Mejifornia. I really find it hard to believe this is anything but looking to the next election if crime keeps growing, and it will.  Mejinfornians must want out of control crime since they keep electing whack heads who will make sure it stays that way - like Kamala. 0380000

In other words....

It's like Greasy Newsom is an electoral Supermarket manager on the mic yelling....   Cleanup on aisles 1,4,6,7,9, and 13.
