Violence In America

[JoePa]

Don't know if you guys have heard about the crime escalation in the big cities - city after city is reporting that the murder rate have increased astronomically - in Baltimore alone 45 murders were recorded in July - one city reported an 85% increase - one of the reasons is that cops in general have decided to back down after the politicians threw so many under the bus - they are sick and tired of being treated like a bunch of criminals - sure some cops may have done something that was out of line but now the atmosphere is such that a cop has to be afraid if they arrest someone they can get in big trouble - now just think what would happen if some disaster strikes the country - it will be all out war in the cities - that's why people are arming themselves - the place is collapsing from within - and you know what - the people deserve it - they kept putting bums into office and now they are reaping the harvest -

The problem lies with the caliber of people being hired as Police Officers. The psychological testing needs to be ramped up considerably. They're hiring too many egomaniacs,people who are incapable of rapid deductive reasoning and common sense and/or veterans who have some degree of PTSD. Couple that with rampant racism and political corruption at every level which is ripping the fabric of America apart and the seeds of full blown civil insurrection have been sown. These are the internal forces which will destroy the nation from within. Once other "enemy" countries see that America is in a very weakened state,they will attack,if not literally,certainly figuratively and economically. The sharks have been circling in the water for a very long time,now,waiting for the opportunity to strike.

Public trust. It is the be all.

We are seeing the beginnings here. We almost always follow the U.S. by generation.

See just
High river
A nut bar in Nova Scotia
The growing distrust of Leo here
G20 or growing angst with liberals here and the OPP.

The U.S. Is a powder keg on a slow burn (add racial tensions etc etc). Have said that for years.

If things don't change, not if but when and how bad

Come on it's been bad for years in the U.S ! I can clearly remember going to Detroit for many concerts and all the racist remarks being made to us white folk walking into Cobo Hall early 1980's. Will have to arm our borders with water cannons .Lol

I would say that it is getting worst because groups are forming and each is well armed - it will take some kind of economic collapse or like incident and all hell will break loose - people who live in the big cities or near them will be in tough shape - a guy like me who lives in the country will be ok - throughout history countries that became super powers eventually declined from within - its the USs turn to go that route - why shouldn't it - we got a bunch of idiots running the place and more and more idiots voting -

Its like a kettle sittin and steamin. Its not going to get better. Hey i may sound like a kook saying this publicly but i live in a big city and i have a place hours north and remote. I have enough fuel on hand to get me about eleven hundred clicks and all i have to do is grab my kids and jump in the car everything i need is up there. We could live there not too badly for a long time. I learned that from my grandfather who was a US navy man and he taght me everything. Just makes me feel better knowing that i have a way out if anything happens. Cheers.

Most likely you will be in traffic for hours, and may lose your car and gear to the mob of people that don't have one. In the violence of being robbed there is a 90% chance that you will be injured/kill and/or separated from your family members.
