Oakland-CA Newspaper Editor Gunned Down

Sometimes- thoughts such as happen to accidentally enter my head get translated to the words you- the hapless reader- peruse.

Occasionally those thoughts translated to words makes somebody angry- one hopes the anger isn't at the writer- but that's another reason we have bullet-resistant vests and foil hats.

Unfortunately for the new editor of weekly The OAKLAND POST Chauncey Bailey- he wasn't wearing such a vest and the hat wouldn't have done much good.

Police tell the AP and other news media someone made "a hit" on Mr. Bailey- killing him.
