I was in the local Walgreens on 51st and Telegraph in Oakland today. It's 4 blocks from where 3 teens were gunned down this weekend.

The store is closing. Small wonder?

The entire wall behind the register is plywood because crooks drove a stolen car through it a couple weeks ago. 

The lady working the register doesn't know if she'll still have a job when it closes.

The other lady with the cane in front of me in line is begging - "but where will I get my prescriptions filled when you close?"

Oakland can do better than this, but only if we vote for change.
