Unsuspecting white suburbanites, and those who live in smaller cities, are now dealing with violent crime rates that used to be confined to inner-city slums.
There are no "safe" neighborhoods any more. ANY parking lot, ANY fast-food restaurant, ANY shopping center could be the scene of an unfortunate encounter with some of our predator class.
That’s an important article. Thanks for linking it.
As the mother of a murdered child, I don’t read that kind of stuff, nor watch it on TV, it is to upsetting.
BTW I live in Memphis the crime capitol of the state of TN. We have daily shootings or killings, violence is rampant here as the city, county and state do very little to combat crime. Criminals serve on average on 30% of their sentences. Takes 2 years to get through the plea bargain phase...or trial. And they count that time in jail awaiting trial/plea as time served.
I spent 2 years going to court nearly once every month only to have things postponed for another month. Then when they finally did a bad plea deal with out my input he only got a lousy 20 years. First parole hearing was 10 months later, 5 more after that over a 14.5 year time span, then they let him loose as he’d MAXED out ‘his good behavior’ time.
I don’t have to read it I live it.
