Former CIA officer and now author Marc Sageman says that the latest jihadis taking up the global call for action more closely resemble criminal gang members than religious fanatics.<<<
He is correct.
Two nights ago, big fights broke out at the same time in San Diego, in the street, men and women.
In approximately 5 minutes on the police scanner, there was an 80, 40, 20 fight, also a 100 and another 20.
They did not say “gang” as is normal, or as the fights that I heard last night were, “party - getting out of control”.
These were downtown.
You would be surprised at what is going on, and never makes the papers.

I listen to the #1 scanner, it covers the largest number of departments.
If you add your city or state to these searches, you will find one near you.......maybe.
I lived in San Diego almost 30 years, so it was easy to get interested in it.
If everyone listened to their town, we would get a better idea of what was really going on in our country.
I consider what I hear going on in San Diego, to be a sample and it is not good, bombs, fires, thefts, rape and gangs.
That is so true Granny.
Police in southern California are trying to calm fears that black and Latino gang wars are heating up, but admit that with over 800 gangs in action, they need help.
