The family of an Oakland baker and former publisher who espoused anarchist beliefs believe that the thieves who killed her in a daylight robbery and assault shouldn't go to jail and her death shouldn't be used to argue for more police.
Jennifer Angel, 48, founded Angel Cakes bakery in Oakland in 2008. Prior to that, she was a publisher of what she described as 'radical, progressive' magazines and a publicist for authors.
On Monday, Angel was leaving her car in front of a bank in uptown Oakland when two robbers smashed her car window and ran off with her belongings.
She then went after the robbers' getaway car, catching up with it but getting trapped in its door and being dragged over 50 feet. Her head was crushed on the sidewalk and the car drove away.
'As a long-time social movement activist and anarchist, Jen did not believe in state violence, carceral punishment, or incarceration as an effective or just solution to social violence and inequity,' they wrote.
They added: 'We know Jen would not want to continue the cycle of harm by bringing state-sanctioned violence to those involved in her death or to other members of Oakland's rich community.'
In fact, she once bragged on Facebook that she had taught her employees to do what she does and 'never call the cops.'

Comment:
Left Wingers are foolish and naive.
Protecting the public from criminals is not an injustice.
Criminals robbing and murdering people is the injustice.
Left Wingers seem to always get things backwards.
Our society provides enormous opportunities.
There are no legitimate reasons to be committing crimes.
We provide free housing, food, and healthcare to poor people.
We provide unemployment income for people who have lost their jobs.
