Don't show up with your newspapers this time.
We know this was wrong, you young people get off the streets and support this young man. No one has the right to do this. He was and is some one son, brother and family member. I knew Gary from kindergarden on...he and on of my family member when to school together. It is time to clean Oakland up. I am a older woman who remembers when Oakland was a safe place. Please get off the street and help Oakland to rise again.
We don't want another Detroit here, Detroit wasn't always nasty and dirty. I grew up there...but once crime came in, jobs, businesses and the city and schools left.
Gary was a example of what the police thinks of our young black men...please get off the streets and fight for freedom...you'll are in a form of slavery and don't know it...in Oakland...
March and hold rallies for the cause to be free...street crime, drug and muder isn't freedom...fight to break the chain...get off the streets....young people.
A worried mother, grandmother and great-grandmother
