When will criminals learn that Brentwood is not criminal friendly. They will get caught in Brentwood because people actually care in that city.

Antioch has a Raleys on Lonetree. You don’t even need a hunting knife to get free food there. All you have to do is take what you want and leave. No one will even look at you twice. It is a requirement in Antioch for employees to leave you criminals alone. That’s why criminals thrive and are treated better than law abiding citizens with free housing, free electricity, free food, free Obama phones, free clothes, and soon they will be offered free medicinal marijuana like in Berkeley.

Antioch -the city where the criminals are protected and the garbage elected.
