Last Saturday night, riots and looting in Oakland -- like cities across America -- trashed numerous businesses. The neighborhood around the Magnolia Wellness dispensary, though, was mostly quiet. Magnolia is located in an industrial neighborhood just off the Nimitz Freeway, full of warehouses and truck barns, between a massive railyard and the Port of Oakland.The silence broke around 2 a.m Sunday morning. About two dozen people showed up at Magnolia, broke in, smashed pretty much everything in sight, shot the place up, and made off with loads of weed and electronic equipment . . .
