According to the former senator&#8217;s Twitter <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/barbaraboxer\/status\/1419784140904337410?s=21\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">account<\/a>, Boxer was &#8220;assaulted in the Jack London Square neighborhood of Oakland. The assailant pushed her in the back, stole her cell phone and jumped in a waiting car. She is thankful that she was not seriously injured.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Rising violence fueled by public officials&#8217; reluctance to punish criminals is one of several reasons why people are <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/politics\/california-population-decline\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fleeing the state<\/a> of California in droves. San Francisco, for example, experienced a 140 percent increase in anti-Asian hate crimes during the first quarter of 2021. Violent crime and property crime are also <a href=\"https:\/\/sfgov.org\/scorecards\/public-safety\/violent-crime-rate-and-property-crime-rate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">on the rise<\/a>, as the city&#8217;s radical left-wing district attorney, <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/politics\/san-francisco-urination\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chesa Boudin<\/a>, has enacted a <em>laissez-faire&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/politics\/chesa-boudin-communist-crime-apologist\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">approach<\/a> to criminal behavior.<\/p>\n<p>The attack on Boxer, 80, reportedly occurred near her home at around 1:15 p.m. on Monday and involved two young individuals, one who carried out the assault and another who drove a getaway car. &#8220;I&#8217;m really saddened by this experience because here is a grandma alone, on her phone, and two young people attacked,&#8221; Boxer <a href=\"https:\/\/sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com\/2021\/07\/27\/former-california-senator-barbara-boxer-assaulted-robbed-in-oaklands-jack-london-district\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told<\/a> a local CBS affiliate.<\/p>\n<p>Boxer, who served four terms in the U.S. Senate and endorsed Biden for president in 2020, was presumably shocked that violent crime could still occur now that a Democrat is in the White House. In August of last year, for example, Boxer <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/barbaraboxer\/status\/1300161239742468096?s=10\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tweeted<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"css-901oao css-16my406 r-poiln3 r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0\">&#8220;In Trump&#8217;s America heartbreaking violence is rampant because this president doesn&#8217;t care about solving the crisis, doesn&#8217;t understand how to bring calm out of chaos &amp; actually is fomenting the divisions &amp; violence. If you don\u2019t like the violence in Trump&#8217;s America vote <\/span><span class=\"r-18u37iz\">#Biden2020<\/span>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Even if Biden cared about reducing violent crime, and wasn&#8217;t beholden to the radical &#8220;Defund the Police&#8221; faction of the Democratic Party, state and local leaders in California have repeatedly demonstrated an unwillingness to treat crime as a serious issue.<\/p>\n<p>Boudin, who is facing multiple recall campaigns, was raised by left-wing terrorist Bill Ayers after his parents were imprisoned for their role in an armed robbery that left three people dead. Multiple people have been killed on Boudin&#8217;s watch after he declined to prosecute the perpetrators for violent crimes.<\/p>\n<p>Former president Donald Trump responded to news of Boxer&#8217;s misfortune in predictable fashion. &#8220;Former California Senator Barbara Boxer was savagely assaulted and robbed yesterday in Oakland, where they defunded the police,&#8221; he wrote. &#8220;We cannot let Communist Democrats destroy our great cities. If we don&#8217;t stop them, our communities and our Country will be lost forever.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Politics Predicted Joe Biden&#8217;s election would end violence in America  Getty  Andrew Stiles \u2022 July 27, 2021 2:55 pm Nearly one year after &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"close","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-603893","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/603893","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=603893"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/603893\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=603893"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=603893"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=603893"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
