This happened only a few blocks from where I used to live in North Oakland, in the "safe" part of Oakland on Piedmont Avenue where yuppies shop and dine and the ice cream shop Fenton's stands and the indie movie theater is. The attempted robbery did happen on the corner of MacArthur and Piedmont, in an area not as yuppie-fied.
I'm really sorry to hear about the boy shot while he was at piano pratice :(

I live in Oakland CA.
I live where God resides.
Two people were at a party discussing a very competitive hedge fund manager on the other side of the room, and one of them mentioned that he made $100 million this year. The other person, a mere financial mortal said, "I have something that he will never have." After a pause, he added, "enough."
