The Street Level Health Project was forced to turn away clients Monday after a weekend break-in that staff said was intended as retaliation for the Fruitvale District clinic's services to day laborers and other low-income immigrants.

The burglary happened Sunday sometime between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., when it was discovered, clinic spokeswoman Kristen Cashmore said. The burglars stole a laptop, two desktop computers and digital equipment kept in the administrative offices of the building located at 2501 International Blvd., according to Cashmore. The thieves also vandalized furniture and computer equipment, she said.

The Street Level Health Project provides lunches, English classes, medical screening, health care referrals and other services to mainly low-income immigrants living in the Bay Area. The offices will remain closed until a police investigation has been finished.

In response to the incident, staff and community members gathered Monday afternoon outside the building. "We refuse to be threatened," Executive Director Laura Perez said.

Oh sure......right away it's just another "hate crime" scenario directed at latino illegal aliens

Considering what was stolen, they ought to check with some of their "low income immigrant" patients because that's probably where they'll find the blame

What is it we always here when certain favored and protected groups engage in civil disobedience or riots or criminal acts such as destruction of property? Their behavior is excused by civil rights and community leaders as being understandable, due to anger and frustration at the injustices they've had to face and the environment they've had to live in, blah, blah, blah......"

Well guess what, that works both ways. If the libs, civil rights activists, and pandering apologists are going to make excuses and justifications like that for some groups, then it should apply to everyone. If the people committing these acts are actually found NOT to be illegl aliens themselves, then maybe the break-in can be explained as due to legal US citizens getting completely FED UP and SICK of illegal aliens being coddled and given freebees that US citizens don't even get with US citizen's money!!!!! Maybe they've reached a breaking a point!!!!!
