Lower than two weeks in the past, we reported that the one In-N-Out burger restaurant in Oakland, California was closing due to crime.
Now the one Denny’s diner restaurant within the metropolis is closing for a similar cause.
This Denny’s has been in operation for over 50 years.

The Denny’s in Oakland, recognized for being “all the time open,” is now without end closed due to crime considerations.
The restaurant on Hegenberger Highway, a mainstay within the neighborhood for 54 years, closed for good at 1 p.m. Wednesday. It looks like solely the chickens that congregate outdoors the diner shall be staying.

However an indication on the entrance door says, partly, “The protection and well-being of Denny’s group members and valued friends is our prime precedence.”
Staff had been advised of the closure solely on Tuesday. Some had been in tears on their final day.

How rather more of this are taxpayers going to tolerate?

Reckless legal guidelines, de-funded police, and a “progressive” District Legal professional: it’s the identical components behind the collapse of Newsom’s San Francisco.
