More Well Placed Anger...

Tazer friend Inge Oliver has expanded on her inital anger over the Iron Triangle shooting. Honestly, the Tazer would like to actually see some of her questions and concerns addressed by the proper parties and would be willing to interview them in a feature on The Tazer. Here's Inge, unedited:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Still being in the state of shock, due to last night's homicide, I contacted several community leaders,discussing, what can be done immediately to stop this horrifying situation.

You want to keep your jobs, want to be re-elected, we, the community leaders/activists have someserious questions to you and want answers!

A) Why do you waste our tax-money for nothing but a 10-months survey, done by an Oakland Consultant?

TAZER NOTE: Damn Good Question!

B) Oakland's violent crime rate never was higher than in the last couple of years, indicating that Mr. Muhammad's Mentoring Center's success seems to be very poor, to say the least.

TAZER NOTE: OOPS! Is that ALL true?

C) Why are you so adamant to get Oakland's losers on the city's payroll? (Another example: Mr. Samuels)

TAZER NOTE: Is this the equivalent of being a "Hack" in major league baseball and trying to be a star in Japan?

D) Why do you, our elected officials refuse to do, what we, your constituency, are asking you to do, implementing programs for the local youth-at-risk, programs, that were introduced to you by the Richmond Improvement Association, a local organization?

Not only show these programs a tremendous success in other cities, RIA is way beyond the point of conducting surveys, they already have the necessary data, they know where and what needs to be done.

E) Why can Ms. Anderson's son, as well as her friend, Mr. McMillan "attack" outspoken community leaders, not once, but several times, and get away with it? I thought we are living in a Democracy, where elected officials an and should be held accountable for their mistakes!D) If any of you believe that you can use our money for your election campaign, (Consultant contract with the "Mentoring Center" = political pay-back) you are wrong, wasting our money for this survey will back-fire on you!

TAZER NOTE: At the risk of sounding overly PC, The Tazer would LOVE too see some info on the attacks of our community leaders, so that we can share with everyone.

Sincerely,

Inge Oliver
