Yo is what he calls a real thug. Against the police and loving crime until he or his momma gets robbed. Then the police are the first one he calls.

Agreed…I chalk it up to age and the lack of education.

And sitting behind a keyboard. I read an article “we all look ridiculous online.” It’s probably true.

How about, get robbed where you play in disco bay ? You want growth and high density housing ? This is what comes with it. Discovery Bay use to only have some burglaries due to vacant home owners. Hardly ever a violent or person on person crime until this last eight or so years. Keep building!

Omg a multi billion dollar company just lost 2 THOUSAND dollars, what in the world are we gunna do? Just be glad they didn’t target an innocent person.

Don’t banks have security cameras outside of their buildings? That “brown car” was of a certain make and hopefully, had a license plate . . and maybe it was not a stolen car. The bill should have invisible marking on them and be kept next to the unmarked money.
