You may have heard (it didn’t make the local news, as far as I’m aware) that our own Carroll Fife—she who hates the police, who implies they’re racists, who repeatedly has tried to defund them and put them out of business—yes, that Carroll Fife was forced to call the Oakland Police Department after three of her canvassers in Uptown were “assaulted” (in her words) by armed men, who then fled the scene.
Or so Fife claims.
The story, with a video of Fife talking about it, was published by Britain’s Daily Mail last week. My search for any local references to it have been fruitless. Fife doesn’t even mention it on her Twitter account. But watch the video on the Daily Mail article. Fife was really upset at that time. Now, nothing. Why?
Because she’s embarrassed. Poor little Carroll! She spends years telling people how useless OPD is, and then, all of a sudden, she needs them. I’d be embarrassed, too, I guess, if I had her vicious, violent history.
“This is insane,” Fife whined in the video. No, Ms. Fife, you’re insane. You’re a racist, pure and simple. To you, Black people can do no wrong. To you, White people are always terrorizing Black people and must be punished. What is truly insane is the absurdity that we allowed you to spread your racist manure for years in Oakland, when the sensible thing to do would have been to recall you.
Harsh words? Maybe, but they’re true, and you know it. “This makes absolutely no sense,” you complained in the video. Well, it makes perfect sense. It’s Karma’s way of teaching you. You’ve used race-mongering and arousing anger to grease your way up the political pole. Now, the anger that you, yourself, birthed has returned to wreak vengeance on your “canvassers” if—and this is a big “if”—you story is even true. I tend to doubt it, because you’re behind in the polls in your bid for re-election, and this wouldn’t be the first time you ginned up some stunt to get you sympathy. My advice, Carroll Fife is, go to your church, get down on your knees, and tremble under the realization of the horror you have brought to Oakland.
