Blue Angels of Death buzz over Oakland today

Blue Angels of Death buzz over Oakland today

By Lynda Carson - October 6, 2022

Oakland - October of 2022, and somehow it felt just like another warm typical day of horrors. Reportedly, the streets of Oakland are dripping in blood from the latest shootings, the U.S. Supreme Court is on the verge of eviscerating our voting rights, Vladimir Putin is threatening nuclear war again, North Korea has been testing their missiles over the skies of Japan, a South Korean missile accident panics the public, a U.S. aircraft carrier and South Korean warships start new drills during tensions with North Korea, and the madness of Fleet Week is happening in San Francisco with the happy go-lucky on-leave sailors heading to Oakland in search of a good time.

Years ago, parts of Oakland was “off-limits” to the military, and apparently things may have changed since then, or not, for the happy go-lucky sailors in search of a good time.

Meanwhile, earlier today around 4:29 PM, the Blue Angels of Death from the Fleet Week celebrations in San Francisco buzzed very low over the skies of Oakland as though they were on a bloody bombing mission in some foreign country to expand the horrors of imperialism.

Among the ships at port in San Francisco celebrating Fleet Week for the war monger tourists, they include the USS Harpers Ferry (LSD 49), USS Princeton (CG 59), USS Fitzgerald (DDG 62), the USS Kansas City (LCS 22), and the USCGC Terrell Horne (WPC-1131).

Tickets Available For Tourists On The War Ships Of Death During Fleet Week:

Tickets available. With a ticket taker aboard the USS Harpers Ferry (LSD 49) greeting the tourists with a smile that is colder than a ticket takers smile at the gates of Hades, the tourists may, or may not feel entertained with a first class tour of the “Ammunition Stowage” section of the famed death ship at Fleet Week in San Francisco.

Meanwhile, the ravages of covid-19 are still upon us as the Mayor and the Oakland City Council are seeking $1.3 billion in infrastructure financing that the tax payers will have to cover for the new proposed ball park stadium scheme for multi-billionaire John J. Fisher, and the Oakland A’s.

An oppressive ball park scheme that forbids Oaklanders from voting for, or against the proposal, thanks to the corrupt Democratic politicians in the pocket of Republican billionaire John J. Fisher.
