I think it's a terrible idea to ask cops to patrol our streets more often.
There is no immediate solution to preventing theft other than removing
valuables from cars.
The long term solution is to strengthen and continue our work in the
community. Theft isn't a symptom of malicious intent, but social
disadvantage. If we'd like to address this more intentionally as a
community, we could start by reading a book like Michelle Alexander's "The
New Jim Crow" and discussing why the policing industry doesn't strengthen
communities, but weakens them.

I've actually had two pleasant interactions with
the cops recently. I get
the idea that they only make things worse, but I don't think that's the
majority of cases. If people don't feel like they can park around the omni
then it's less available to people in our community who live further
afield. I'm not opposed to asking the police to patrol our street a little
more often, but if that's unacceptable to our some of our members I'd like
to hear some alternative solutions.

The other possibility is to talk to the Oakland PD and see if they
would have a patrol car in the area on a regular basis.
I'm not sure our universe contains big enough N's or O's to respond to
this appropriately.
