Oscar Grant Johannes Mehserle BART shooting graffiti at Lake Merritt

While dining at a quaint Chinese restaurant in a sleepy suburb yesterday, I heard the table next to me discuss the potential for rioting in Oakland if the BART shooting trial goes a certain way.

This morning, I found this.  A bunch of sick messages were spray painted around Lake Merritt in Oakland.  I lived there for six years (one message was painted literally across the street from my old place).  Watching this almost made me cry with anger and sadness.  Everyone needs to calm down and direct their energies and emotions into something positive and productive.
