If a man tells a woman she’s beautiful she’ll overlook most of his other lies.

If Longmire is ever investigated, and the allegations proven true, then Longmire’s behavior is not the fault of Oakland PD, or the Mayor, or anyone other than Longmire.

I don’t think Longmire did a good job. Not by any stretch of the imagination. And if these whack jobs continue ordering murders from behind bars, I hope they don’t assign Longmire to “investigate” those murders too.

The City of Oakland needs to root out black racism and hatred of the white community before it will have a chance to become a decent and honorable community. Please do it now.

Having said that, and I’ll say it again, Sgt. Longmire is not responsible for that murder. I fail to see how this man is in any way involved, knew of, conspired to or assisted these little punks in anything except hanging themselves. We’re not talking about Mayberry town here….we’re talking about Oakland, California, where murders are as common as changing ones’ underwear! A place where if you’ve never been, you never want to venture to. Oakland makes NATIONAL headlines for it’s murders and while that of Mr. Bailey became one of those headlines, these types of little punks run our streets everyday murdering people and their mothers are still crying tears over they’re murdered child’s body.

I’m sure Sgt. Longmire was involved in at least some if not most of the murder investigations over the years, is he now going to be scrutinized over those murder investigations as well? This man doesn’t know he’s being tape recorded while talking to a slime-bag in jail? Really? Do you really believe that? If Sgt. Longmire sat down with Mr. Bey and said, “hey dude, I’m going to get you by the balls…I know ya’ did it!”, would that have been a good tactic to use trying to gain a confession from a murderer? It’s elementary really. You gain the trust, you get the information. What was he possibly covering up? This man is a homicide detective in Oakland! Sgt. Longmire has become the issue when the real issue and crime lies within the heart of the higher-ups at Oakland Police Department, and other high-ranking officials who condoned this warped crime-infested enterprise for many, many years.

You are correct, the truth will come to light when this goes to trail. Much of the community has been cracking jokes about the corruption within the Bey organization for years. We all sat around watching the repeats on KTVU about the liquor store vandalism, the murders, the child molesting and so I wonder, where was the outrage then? While these guys were getting off crime after crime, after crime, most were sitting around doing what? I’ll tell you what most were doing…..nothing.

There were no blogs, no posts, no outrage, no news, there was nothing….not a peep. I will tell you this, if this twerp gets off because of this “movement” to crucify Sgt. Longmire, and they can then find some defense lawyer who begins his “movement” to question doubt about other murder investigations, like what happened in the Riders Case, and you start having murderers wondering the streets of Oakland again, you can bet on this……you would be wishing you lived in Mayberry Town.

I guess there are those who believe to their core in conspiracy theories….I’m not one of them. I have $50 bucks on anyone who can do the job of a cop, much less a homicide cop, for one day in the City of Oakland. It’s ludicrous to believe this stuff.

This is not 1950, this is 2009 for God’s sake. Funny, how we all tend to hold others at a higher standard than ourselves. I’m thinking shoes….”never judge a man until you’ve walked a mile in his shoes.” In this case…..it’s Oakland. Small minded thoughts produce small, if any results. This is so much larger than one man and a phone conversation.
