    As society and the glue of civilization crumbles, there are indices that keep one appraised of just how depraved "human" behavior is becoming. We now have riots that are approved of by the collectivist oligarchs and career politicians who have gained control of the reins of power in Western countries. We have the police being defunded on purpose so as to attempt to spread fear among those who the collectivists declare deplorable. Who are these "deplorable people"? They are people who wish to be independent and self-sufficient. They are people who prepare for the coming hard times.

    We measure the collapse of civilization in many different ways. How many robberies are there? How many flash-mob looting sprees do we witness? Riots are another indicator. Home invasions are another terrorist mechanism against a would-be people.

    One recent crime variety that is really exploding across the USSA is the carjacking phenomenon. This is one really up-close and personal crime. Seems this crime explosion is OK with the powers that be. They certainly are doing nothing to stop it. Indeed, they are defunding the police and opening the prison gates.

    "The death of 26-year old Isabella Lewis marks at least the 12th homicide of a rideshare driver this year, according to a recent report by the website The Markup, which recently reported on the staggering rise in carjackings and other violent crimes being committed against rideshare drivers, who are forced to disarm while on the job thanks to policies from companies like Uber and Lyft.

    "Since The Markup’s original report, there’s been at least one additional homicide; Isabelle Lewis’ death in Garland, Texas this past weekend. And The Markup’s report focuses exclusively on drivers for rideshare companies, but other drivers for outfits like GrubHub and DoorDash are also being targeted and killed by criminals looking for an easy and unarmed victim."

    Wow, didn't know this.

    Are the people in London laxidasical about this, or is there growing fear of crime?

    Me, as an American avoid cities like the plague. I only travel to urban areas when on business and while there take the cabs that come to the hotel. Many cities have areas where conference hotels and restaurants congregate -- i.e. "circle the wagons". When at conference, most attendees stay in these areas.

    I've gone out with the guys -- y'know, put a crew together. It is NOT safe in cities to travel alone on foot, even if you are a big guy. It does help being large and mean looking -- muggers profile people and just like the police, can spot guys who are carrying, thus avoid them. Surveys of prisoners have shown that inmates are pretty good at spotting people who are armed. Cops can spot a fellow carrying a mile away.

    You can't carry a knife on a plane, however you can keep your knife in the suitcase and check the suitcase (can't bring it carry-on). I've done this numerous times -- put a flick-open lock-blade in my suitcase for a conference trip. Note that a push-button "switchblade" knife IS illegal. I knew a guy at factory who carried switchblades in both pockets. One time at work he flicked both open at me at the same time for fun. He didn't carry because he thought he was in any danger. He only carried them because he was a knife lover. I've known guys who liked woodworking who made the most beautiful knife handles -- real works of art.

    "London News: Gun-Hit Horror Carjacking, Urgent Appeal to Metropolitan Police | UK | News"

    https://eminetra.co.uk/london-news-...appeal-to-metropolitan-police-uk-news/511506/

    "Car theft has increased significantly in London in recent years.

    "According to LV = non-life insurance data, car theft claims increased by 20% between 2016 and 2019, with keyless car theft accounting for a large proportion of claims.

    "Allegations of car theft in London have increased by 265% since 2016, with Birmingham, Nottingham and Greater Manchester showing a recent increase of over 100%."

    Old Geezer: "Gun-hit" is not a term used in America. "Armed robbery" usually means the felon had a firearm. If it was a knife used, the article will usually specifically say that a "knife was pulled on the victim". In major newspapers, sometimes those papers leave out the fact that the weapon used was a knife because it is their political aim to amplify the number of crimes committed using firearms.

    Statistically speaking (USA numbers), if a knife is used in a robbery, the odds of the victim being injured is far higher than if a gun is used. Robbers threaten with guns, but often stab when armed with a knife. This statistic his changing however nowadays. Human life is getting cheaper and cheaper.

    Homicide is the number one killer of young black males (if you do not count abortion). Of all black males, to include those who die of old age, homicide is number 4 on the list. Currently in urban America, black communities are self-destructing.

    Homicide doesn't even make the top-10 list for white males.

    upload_2021-9-6_15-23-40.png

    Federal Bureau of Investigation numbers:

    "In 2018, the Federal Bureau of Investigation reported that 81% of white victims were killed by white offenders, and 89% of Black victims were killed by Black offenders.

    "In 2018, 16% of white victims were killed by Black offenders, while 8% of Black victims were killed by white offenders."

    "Police baffled after 4 friends found murdered in an SUV and abandoned in a Wisconsin cornfield, none with connections to the area"

    https://www.theblaze.com/news/police-baffled-wisconsin-quadruple-homicide#toggle-gdpr

    "The FBI has been called in to assist local police after four Minnesota natives were found fatally shot inside an SUV abandoned in a cornfield in Dunn County, Wisconsin, this week. The heinous — and mysterious — crime has reportedly rocked the rural farming community and left local law enforcement perplexed.

    "Bygd added that he suspects the killer or killers committed the quadruple homicide elsewhere — perhaps near the Twin Cities area — before fleeing the area with the four victims in tow. Having traveled roughly 70 miles northeast of St. Paul, the theory goes, the killer or killers arrived in the tiny town of Sheridan, Wisconsin, where they drove the SUV 50 yards into a cornfield and took off."

    "Gov. Kathy Hochul on Friday said she was ordering the immediate release of 191 inmates who are locked up on Rikers Island for what she called “technical” violations of their parole from state prison.

    "Hochul made the announcement before signing into law the 'Less Is More Act' that will stop the state from putting ex-cons back behind bars for missing appointments with their parole officers, violating curfew or testing positive for drugs or alcohol.

    "The measure is set to go into effect on March 1, but Hochul said the ongoing crisis at Rikers meant there was no time to wait, calling reports of out-of-control violence and chaos at the massive jail complex 'deeply disturbing.'”

    "The victim reportedly had minor injuries and was not taken to the hospital.

    "Roberson is accused of then not stopping for a blue light when the stolen vehicle was spotted by a Florence County deputy near Olanta.

    "The ensuing pursuit ended on Central Road, where the deputy performed a PIT maneuver on the suspect vehicle. The deputy was taken to the hospital for injuries but is expected to recover.

    "Roberson is charged with first-degree assault and battery, carjacking, failure to stop for a blue light and kidnapping. As of Saturday, he’s being held at the Florence County Detention Center, where he awaits a bond hearing.

    "Elmhurst Carjacking: Driver Held Up At Gunpoint, Cops Say"

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crim...point-cops-say/ar-AAOz33a?ocid=BingNewsSearch

    "ELMHURST, IL - A carjacking took place Friday morning at a local convenience store, with men holding up the driver at gunpoint, according to an Elmhurst police news release.

    "Police said they determined that four men occupying a black Porsche Cayenne SUV pulled in the store's parking lot as the victim was entering his parked car. One of the men got out of the Porsche and approached the victim with a black handgun, the report said."

    ========================================

    Carjackers steal cars to commit other crimes. After they commit some robberies and/or drive-by shootings, they ditch the stolen car. So, a carjacking is just the beginning of other crimes. Notice that the carjackers drive up in very expensive vehicles. They do NOT want to use their own valuable vehicles for the felonies they are going to commit that evening. They could bust the column on a parked car and steal it, but it is easier to pull a gun on a driver or bust the driver in the face and take the car using its keys. By the time the police get involved, the felons will have gotten finished with their other felonies and have ditched the car. The urban areas of America are becoming war zones and when the police attempt to do their jobs, they get slammed by the communities they are attempting to protect.

    Hopefully, the police will walk off their jobs. Why should they put up with this sort of abuse?! Let the cities burn.

    "Texas man chased down carjacker who allegedly dragged woman to her death with baseball bat"

    https://www.foxnews.com/us/texas-man-chased-carjacker-dragged-women

    Article quotes in color Blue:

    A Texas man helped to stop a suspected killer during a carjacker after surviving a similar incident months ago.

    Lewis Matos was sitting at his desk on May 26 when a car crashed through his building, knocking him from his chair and pushing debris on top of him. Two people, Juan Mendez and Jaritza Chavarria, got out of the car and tried to shoot Matos while his desk pinned him to the ground.

    Months later, he was in the same area of Uvalde on Wednesday at 2:30 p.m. when he saw a man trying to force a woman, Jessica Garza, from her car, ABC 13 reported.

    "I jumped in my car, I didn’t even think," Matos said. "All I kept thinking was ‘he’s not getting away.’"

    Marcus Wayne Brock, identified by police, drove off with the vehicle while dragging Garza along the ground for four or five blocks as her seatbelt trapped her against the car. Matos followed for a time but was not able to stop the incident before Garza died.

    "I was mortified," Matos said. "When I picked up that piece of signage that was on top of her car, and I saw what he did to her, I was enraged."

    Brock eventually crashed into a carwash before fleeing on foot.

    Matos continued to pursue Brock until he found him in Ralston Liquors and kept him there until police arrived. Police believe that Brock, 55, had robbed an auto parts store before stealing Garza's car in an attempt to make a quick getaway, KHOU reported.

    Court records indicate Brock is responsible for crimes dating back to 1985, with charges ranging from drug possession to burglary.

    Matos explained that he was fed up of "watching everybody always getting away."


    ============================

    Another article concerning same crime:

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crim...-dragging-houston-mom-to-her-death/ar-AAOZRUW

    "Bond set for man accused of dragging mother to her death after carjacking outside church "

    Article quotes in color Blue:

    Marcus Brock, the 55-year-old man accused of a carjacking on Uvalde that led to the death of a Houston mom, waived his first court appearance overnight.

    A judge in the case has set his bond at $1 million. He's charged with capital murder.

    The victim, 41-year-old Jessica Garza, was a mother of three, her family says.
    RELATED: Video shows end of crash in which woman was dragged to her death

    There's a growing memorial to her where the crime ended her life on Tuesday. Authorities say the mom was waiting to pick up her daughter in the parking lot of Uvalde Baptist Church.

    That's when Brock, who had just allegedly stolen a cell phone at a nearby auto parts store, ran across the street, jumped in the mom's vehicle and took off.

    Garza appeared to get tangled in her seatbelt. She was dragged several blocks as the suspect hit cars along the way.

    It's a horrible death that has become a never-ending nightmare for the victim's daughter.

    "She just says she can't get it out of her mind. That she just keeps thinking about it and replaying it like a nightmare over and over again," says Father Christopher Shackelford from Saint Andrews Catholic Church.

    "Officials: Five Violent Inmates Who Escaped GA Facility May Be Armed"

    https://www.breitbart.com/crime/202...inmates-who-escaped-ga-facility-may-be-armed/

    "'The inmates were supposed to be in lockdown. One of two jailers working was in a cell talking to an inmate when another inmate attacked the guard. The sheriff said the inmates told the jailer they were going to kill her, then took her car keys and attacked the other jailer on duty,' the Fox report said.

    “'Williams was charged with felony murder and home invasion for allegedly shooting a man in July 2020. Penix was accused of killing two men in 2017 in a drug deal gone bad. Pooler was accused of child cruelty, Jackson was charged in car break-ins, and Lewis Evans was accused of obstructing an officer,' the Fox article said.

    "Authorities do not know where the subjects are going."

    how did they get out of the prison there must have been more than 2 guards on duty?
    what about on the main gate?
    there have been escapes from prison over here but they were what we call "open prisons" where people go prior to being released.

    Back 20+ years ago, I worked with a programmer who, before attending university, had all manner of dangerous jobs. He was one BIG fellow (for whatever reason, he liked fighting people ... and fires). He'd been rescue squad, fireman, and prison guard. At the regional state penitentiary where he'd worked (mega-rural area up in the mountains) there were supposed to be 12 guards per that unit (I can't go into detail; the building design and automation was somewhat complex). Instead of having a staff of 10-12, they normally had only 4 or 5 men working as guards. He said that they simply looked the other way when drug deals and inmate homosexual rapes were occurring. There was no way that they could control the situation. Many prisons are run by the prisoners. I also talked to one fellow who served time in that particular pen. I've known more than a few folk who've done time. That regional pen however was not as bad as the central penitentiary of our state (that one is in the same county as the capital).

    When governments go broke, the penitentiary doors swing open.

    I had a friend who did nearly 10 years in a British prison, he just did his time and kept his nose clean and got out after doing two thirds of his sentence, that was 30 years ago now people only do half their sentence and the prisons are full of Muslim terrorists and Black gangs.

    Taking out the trash:

    https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/01/21/alleged-philadelphia-carjacker-shot-killed-car-owner/

    Article quotes in color Blue:

    An alleged carjacker was shot and killed Tuesday after he tried to steal a car in Philadelphia just before 8:30 a.m.


    The deceased suspect was one of three suspects allegedly trying to steal the car, the New York Post reported.

    The three suspects allegedly tried to place cables on the victim’s car “to attempt to tow the car away,” 6 ABC noted. That is when the car owner came outside and shot at the suspects, fatally wounding one.

    The suspects were able to get the victim’s car moving, only to have the alleged attempted robbery end in a crash.


    The alleged carjacker who was shot, 51-year-old Satario Natividad, was taken to a hospital where he died, the Post said.


    There were at least 90 carjackings in Philadelphia during the first two weeks of 2022, Breitbart News reported.

    "Carjackings in Democrat-Controlled NYC Up Nearly 300 Percent"

    https://www.breitbart.com/politics/...emocrat-controlled-nyc-up-nearly-300-percent/

    "Carjackings in Democrat-controlled New York City rose 286 percent from 2019-2021 according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB).

    "NICB president David Glawe told the Senate Judiciary Committee that NYC saw a nearly 300 percent increase in carjackings and Philadelphia saw a 238 percent increase, FOX 5 reported.

    "Washington, DC, saw a 200 percent increase in carjackings from 2019-2021 and New Orleans a 159 percent increase.

    “'A disturbing subplot to these bleak numbers is that many carjackings are often committed in furtherance of other serious violent crimes, and many carjackings are committed by juveniles — some as young as 11 years old,' Glawe noted."

    "Defund Police Advocate Sen. Lightford, Chicago and husband carjacked, husband 'fires shots' at thugs"

    https://www.sofmag.com/defund-polic...sband-carjacked-husband-fires-shots-at-thugs/

    "Defund the Police advocate, Illinois Senate Majority Leader Kimberly admitted that her husband Eric McKennie, returned shots at carjackers who had carjacked, shot at the Senator and her husband.

    "The carjacking happened when the couple was in the 2000 block of South 20th Avenue and found themselves boxed in by a Dodge Durango. Before the couple could react, three-armed masked people exited the Durango and ordered Lightford and her husband out of their Mercedes SUV, Lawenforcement Today reported.

    "The hairstylist, who saw what was happening, ran into a person’s house and yelled for them to call 911.

    “'I begged them not to shoot my husband, not to shoot me,' Lightford told reporters Thursday morning at a Christmas present giveaway for children in Proviso Township. 'They took everything off me that I had of value.'

    “'They had separated me and my husband,' she said on WGN-TV. 'After they got the guns off of us, my husband told me to run. I ran, reluctantly, because I didn’t want to leave him there. And it was a scary run because now shots are being fired. I thought for sure they were going to shoot me.'

    "After her husband, with a Concealed Carry permit handed over the keys to the carjacker, he fired shots.

    "Earlier in the week, a Philadelphia representative, also defund the police advocate was highjacked.

    "Both sang high praises for the police.

    “'I want to thank everyone who has offered their love and support. I want to especially thank Mayor Katrina Thompson and the Broadview Police Department for their quick and thorough response.' Lightford said."

    https://www.sofmag.com/defund-the-police-officials-beg-for-help-from-the-police/

    "‘Defund the police’ proponent Rep Mary Kay Scanlon, carjacked at gunpoint and robbed in Philadelphia….

    "She was an advocate of the Rep Porter’s Bill Introduced in House (02/25/2021) This bill creates a grant program for states and local governments to train and dispatch mental health professionals to respond, instead of law enforcement officers, to emergencies that involve people with behavioral health needs.

    "Wednesday afternoon around 2:45 p.m., Congresswoman Scanlon was carjacked at gunpoint in FDR Park following a meeting at that location. The Congresswoman was physically unharmed. She thanks the Philadelphia Police Department for their swift response, and appreciates the efforts of both the Sergeant at Arms in D.C. and her local police department for coordinating with Philly PD to ensure her continued safety.p, she tweeted.

    "Social programs failed for the Representative, but the police took action."

    Want to become an emergency medical tech in Chicago? Here's a promotional video.

    Well, OK, so it's not exactly a promotional video.

    https://usacrime.com/video-ambulance-crew-target-gunfire-chicago/

    "At least five shots were fired toward the ambulance.

    "The medics thought they saw a man struck by gunfire, and rushed to help him along South Shore Drive.

    "Luckily, he was not shot."

    Old Gzr: I'm mightily impressed with how these two guys keep their cool during this 3rd-world situation.

    I'm all for doing away with the cops. All we need is the garbage man to come and haul off the body after I have taken care of things. I have strapped on a gun before so it won't be a new experiance for me.

    Honestly i feel sorry for the cops. If they defend themselves they may well end up in prison. They have to make life and death decissions in parts of a second and god help them if someone gets hurt. When someone is shooting at you and you hear the WHEEEEEE as it goes by your head you may not be able to assume the perfict stance and carefully place your shot. If you miss and hit someone else you are SCREWED and will be charged with manslaughter. Plan B is when you are shot at you run and HIDE. At least that way you can't make a fatal mistake.

    Things are getting more and more violent. I am blessed in that I live in a place that has a rather peaceful sort of population. We do have thousands of criminals here BUT they are all locked up in the 7 or 8 prisons we have here. Prison guards may not be angels but they don't have a criminal history and are not likely to run from trouble. We have hundreds of them here. Nearly everyone that I know works or worked for the prison system. My wife had 25 years and retired and my daughter has 15 years and is counting. She will retire at 55 with 30 years service.

    Unlike cops they don't have to be nice or put up with any crap from the convicts.

    If I had the mindset of a cop, had I the patience and not a hairpin-trigger temper, and did made that decision to be some sort of law enforcement officer, then I would carefully pick in which part of the country I served.

    It's not just in the cities where chaos is taking over. Many previously civilized counties are now being overrun with the malignancy of the drug trade, with all the knuckle-dragging criminals and violent crimes appertaining. I couldn't / wouldn't work there unless my fellow officers and I were allowed to take out the trash and not get dragged before some socialist tribunal to second-guess our actions.

    Intellectually, I can sort of understand why some urban cops go on serving. They have their reasons, I'm sure. Their decision.

    Were I the dictator of this country, I would wall-off cities where the people voted to de-fund the police. Then, I would relocate all of law enforcement and let the bleeding-heart liberals bleed. With just the criminals left, I would drop some food to these fellows ... but not enough. I'd let them kill each other fighting for the crumbs.

    Notice that when the deep state got this biden puppet regime in place, they called off their BLM and Antifa rioting and looting crews. We'll see if this coming winter brings with it urban budget defaults, unaffordable power bills, food shortages and whatnot. One wonders if the looters will put on their coats to go out redistributing wealth to themselves. Maybe people who have electricity and food will get uninvited "guests".

    In Amerika, things are going to have to burn before they get better. What we have now cannot be fixed.

    We USED to have a system that worked...in part because it really didn't. IF we wanted to return to a better system we would need to make voting a little bit more of an effort. Used to be you had to pay a poll tax. This was a small fee that paid part of the cost of having an eloection. Just the simple requirement to make a tiny effort and pay you tax before election day totally eliminates a huge percentage of the people that only will do it if you make it super simple and free. All of that went by the way side because minorities felt discriminated against if they had to pay ANYTHING and had to do ANYTHING to qualify for the vote.

    Seriously if you can't run your life such that you can afford a 5 or 10 dollar poll tax every 4 years do we REALLY need your input on how things should be done. If you can't take the time to do one small thing every 4 years maybe you should not be allowed to vote. Hell it would probably work if it was free but you HAD to register and ask to vote. ANY effort is too much for a lot of people. SO we are slowly loosing our nation to idiots and trash.

    In really tiny towns, most people know each other. As a community gets larger, not everyone knows everyone else.

    Historically, along came Notaries Public, letters of introduction, and nowadays we even have photo identifications. Often the ID is your driver's license, but if you do not drive, you can go to the local Dept of Transportation and get an I.D. by showing your birth certificate and/or other documents that let them know that you are who you say you are. If people are not standing in line that day, this will take less than an hour.

    If I go to the doctor, buy a prescription drug, or other important activities that require that the folk there know who I am, then I present my identification. "Yes, I am who I say I am."

    Here in Amerika, if you ask someone to show proof of who they are at a place of voting, then you are a racist oppressor.

    "When the Real-World Strikes: How I Survived an Attempted Carjacking"


    https://www.personaldefenseworld.com/2022/08/attempted-carjacking/

    "... I was following a beat-up old Toyota Camry going 15 mph under the speed limit. My mind was elsewhere while I was driving and attempting to navigate around road closures in wonderful Michigan traffic.

    "I noticed the two guys in the Toyota starting to act very strangely, looking around erratically and just acting odd. At the next traffic light, I saw the passenger put what I thought was a hood on his head, and the driver kept looking in his mirrors at me and my truck. The two were acting strange enough that I was on high alert.

    ...

    "My goal was not to get boxed in so that if something happened, I could get out of the situation quickly. Unfortunately, my plan completely backfired, and I ended up completely surrounded. There was a semi-truck behind me as well as one next to me and another pickup truck on the right.

    "I kept my eyes on the two guys in the car in front of me. They continued acting very strange, looking around, seemingly arguing in the vehicle. The second I found myself boxed in with nowhere to go, I put my hands on my pistol.

    "Then everything changed in a matter of seconds when the passenger door of their vehicle flew open. Out came a guy dressed in all black, wearing a ski mask and gloves. The hood I thought he put on was not a hood at all but a full ski mask.

    "He began running at me aggressively with one hand behind his back. Before I even realized what was happening, I had drawn my FN 509 Midsize from under my seat. ...

    "I immediately got a firm grip on my pistol and posted up on my steering wheel. ...

    "He was at the back of his vehicle at this point when I began to pull the pre-travel out of the trigger. Luckily, I really know my pistols and have a lot of confidence in them. Suddenly, the guy stopped dead in his tracks. He looked back at his buddy in the car, and looked at me. You could tell he was weighing his options.

    "The ball was in his court at this point; either get in the car he came out of and maybe go home or keep coming at me and probably not make it home at all. Thankfully, he jumped back in his car. They proceeded to run a red light and take off through traffic, nearly crashing multiple times.

    "Lessons Learned

    ...

    "I also started thinking about how loud this was about to be inside the closed cab of my truck. It occurred to me that during all my training, I have never fired a pistol inside a vehicle and have never shot through a windshield. That will all be changing now. I’m looking for training facilities that offer this type of training to better prepare myself in the event this happens a second time.

    "I also learned a few things about situational awareness. I always walk around very aware; some people even say I am paranoid at times. Clearly, that paranoia paid off because I knew something was going on before anything happened, thanks to being situationally aware.

    "With that being said, I made a big mistake while thinking I was doing the right thing. Pulling up behind the Toyota instead of picking another lane was not the best choice. I could have got in that far right lane with just a curb next to me and still kept my distance from them. That would have allowed me to hop the curb and get out of the situation instead of ending up a sitting duck when the traffic around us changed.

    "Those guys knew the area well and knew the timing of the lights. They waited for the perfect time to jump out and attempt their attack—when I was boxed in. They knew that the intersection behind us would catch up to us and block my exits.

    "I definitely will be investing in a good dash camera in the near future. A dash camera can act as incredible evidence and, in this situation, would have provided me and law enforcement with all the information and footage needed to find these guys and ensure they don’t attempt this stunt again.

    "I was embarrassingly useless to the police. I ended up not even filing a report because I couldn’t remember any vital information. Not to mention, I really didn’t have descriptions of the bad guys. The driver was an older white male with long hair, but I couldn’t see or remember anything else.

    "Also, the passenger wore a ski mask and gloves. No idea what he looked like and didn’t recall any features that would help identify him. That dash cam would have been really nice to have.

    "Take Away
    "It took me a few days to really process what happened and why I was so rattled by this situation. I am thankful I didn’t have to pull the trigger and take a life. But I realized I was fully prepared to do so to save my own life. I discovered a few holes in my training that will be addressed in the very near future as well.

    "The biggest lesson during this situation was that this stuff can happen to anyone anywhere, at any time. With the state of this country right now and the world we live in, I believe it’s more important than ever to carry everywhere you go. Every single day of the week. Never let your guard down just because you might be going to a good neighborhood or just out for a minute.

    "Train often, know your firearm, and pay attention to your surroundings. It only takes a second to change life as we all know it. Stay safe and aware. Don’t allow yourself to become complacent and forget that evil exist and walks amongst us every day."

    Old Geezer: Option B, Hit the accelerator and crush the genetic trash to death.

    At my age I can always say that I got a overwhelming flash of pain in the center of my chest and this pain caused my body to straighten out and go rigid, thus my foot hit the accelerator. "Gosh, I'm sure sad about the guy in the ski mask!"

    several times in my working life I had to go and collect the firm's payroll from another location several hours away.
    my instructions from my employer were to not stop for anything, not for a cup of coffee, nothing, if anyone tried to flag me down (other than a Police Officer) I was to accelerate the vehicle and drive straight through them- it was up to them to get out of the way.

    Vehicles can be used as rather heavy assault weapons.
    --------------



    "Nearly 40 people were robbed by armed groups over the weekend in Chicago’s near west and north sides, according to police.

    "The spree of robberies likely involves two separate crews that have acted violently in some cases; however, no arrests have been made.

    "On Friday morning, approximately fourteen people were robbed in the Lower West Side to Irving Park, CWB Chicago reported, citing police.

    "The outlet also noted that 12 robberies occurred between Saturday night and Sunday morning in West Town, Lincoln Square, and North Center. One of those incidents involved a 28-year-old woman as she was walking home with her nine-year-old daughter.

    "Police noted that in three incidents, the offenders assaulted the victims in the head with a firearm. One occurrence involved a knife being displayed, and another involved a carjacking.

    "Authorities describe the offenders as two to four black males who are either in their late teens or early twenties. Another police report says the group of offenders involves three to six black males between the ages of 15 to 25.

    "Major crime in the Windy City has surged by 41 percent since this time last year. Reported robbery cases are up by 15 percent, and theft and motor vehicle theft have skyrocketed considerably by 59 percent and 97 percent, respectively.

    "The CPD is also facing resource problems as 911 calls have been backlogged for hours due to a lack of officers unable to respond. The Democrat-run city saw a notable decline in staffing numbers following the Defund the Police movement that gained national traction amid the Black Lives Matter Riots in the Spring of 2020."

    "Two suspects in New York were arrested this week after crashing a Jeep they allegedly stole at knife point into a school bus full of children while being chased by police.

    "Police in Rochester, New York say two suspects stole a red jeep at knife point from a 51-year-old female before being spotted by officers who tried to make a traffic stop, Fox 5 New York reported this week.

    "'Thankfully, the driver and every student was uninjured as a result of the crash,' the Rochester Police Department said in a statement. 'The city school district was advised of the accident and made arrangements to have each student transported home.'

    "The suspects were identified as Maliq McCullough, 20, and Adeosun Hughes, 23, and both were charged for the involvement in the incident. "

    I bet that Mercedes is by now in a container with other similar vehicles waiting to be loaded onto a ship heading for Saudi Arabia and the far east.

    Stolen cars, in England and Europe, is the Middle East where they are taken? Makes sense.

    I know that Mercedes vehicles are super-popular in the Middle East.

    I've written in this forum that SUVs & other 4x4 vehicles stolen in the southern countries of Africa get fenced in Australia.

    Here are some uses for stolen cars. I didn't see in the following article one use and that is to commit an armed robbery. One isn't going to use any vehicle that can be tied to them for an armed robbery, nope, that vehicle must be stolen.

    Just learned a new crime term, "jugging". New term for an old crime.

    "What is jugging? Cash carriers need to know about this rising crime to stay safe"

    https://news.yahoo.com/jugging-cash-carriers-know-rising-132542715.html

    "If you're planning to withdraw cash from a bank anytime soon, you might want to take extra care because authorities are warning of an increase in robberies targeting those visiting financial institutions.

    "As of July 26, five dozen people had been victims of robberies after leaving banks with cash this year in Austin, according to authorities. A combined amount of more than $500,000 in cash was stolen.

    "Investigators call this type of crime 'jugging,' which is when a robber waits at a bank, check-cashing store or ATM for someone to withdraw paper money. The robber then follows the customer outside the establishment before taking the money from the victim or breaking into the person's vehicle, most often at a new location but sometimes outside the bank.

    "'There, they are approached, threatened with violence, or assaulted while the suspect demands the money or aggressively takes the cash bag,' the Austin Police Department said in a statement."

    -------------------------------------------------

    Body-slam paralyzes robbery victim. The couple of seconds section of video showing the actual body-slam onto concrete has been cut out of the video by online editors for political correctness reasons -- too violent and the attacker is black.

    if I'm at an ATM I take note of who is near me, if they are too near me or suspicious I dont use the ATM, makes sense.
    dosent really happen in my neck of the woods but if anyone is visiting a city it pays to be aware of what is going on around them, personally I dont visit cities and havent for at least 15-20 years.
    I grew up in a city so being Situationally Aware is second nature to me.

    Commie Kalifornian cities don't allow cops to pursue property crime felons. This is deemed oppression by the evil police. Me, I wish all police officers would resign and allow the people to take out the trash. Felons simply need to be killed-off.

    Lakewood police "very" frustrated after not being able to pursue ATM thieves

    Murder Rates are on the rise in rural America. As the two-parent family breaks down and culture itself, people grow more paranoid, more psychologically unstable. When the economies of Western nations are destroyed, formerly civilized folk are going to get strange -- some will fold-up psychologically and some will go violent.

    people over here in rural locations tend to deal with the situations themselves.
    various thieves and burglars have found out to their cost.
    in general the crime numbers are very low in this part of the countryside and what "crime" there is tends to be domestic abuse.

      Here too, but there are some VERY strange people in rural areas. I knew a family in the MidWest -- an older lady and her daughter. They owned farmland and both women were widows. In their county, a man in his latter 40s or early 50s was an aggressor. He and his sons would buy farm equipment, then not pay for it. The sheriff department's deputies were afraid of that man and his son. The man was huge and would beat-up people -- so would his crazy sons. I saw him working in a field on the land of the ladies'. He had moved-in on them. Took one of their fields as his own. Post-SHTF, aggressors such as these will have to be exterminated.

    I had a situation many years ago when I was living in an apartment in a city, the local thug was harassing an old lady who had the apartment below me, she uttered one word- my name, I came flying out of the main door and stood by the lady with arms crossed, didnt say a word just stood there, after mouthing a few swear words the yob turned on his heels and moved away, this was a person who had just come out of prison after attacking an old man in a local shop. looking the way I do and the size I am does have its advantages!!! :p
    I had another similar event in a night club, that time there was 4 of them and their leader was enormous! there were 2 of us that time, I took the same actions with the same result, my friend told the leader to look behind him, when he saw me he folded, his "friends" disappeared into the woodwork extra fast.

    Blame the cars, not the felons.

    Ongoing tantrum of the adolescent Left, "If only ... !"

    When adolescents have their hissy-fits (my wife and I raised three into adulthood) they refuse to acknowledge the elephant in the room. My surviving kids, men just over and just under age 40 are now, I think, maybe a bit more conservative than me. They've run headlong into the world of reality -- their lives have been anything but soft. They've had to endure some really bad life events. Wisdom is born of struggle.

    "Chicago Sues Kia And Hyundai After Spate Of Car Thefts In The City And Nationwide"

    https://www.forbes.com/sites/willsk...s-in-the-city-and-nationwide/?sh=219ea7953680

    "Chicago sued South Korean automakers Hyundai and Kia—which is owned by Hyundai but operates mostly independently—over their failure to install anti-theft technology in multiple models of their cars, something the city alleges is behind a steep rise in vehicle thefts and other crime in Chicago."

    ==========================================

    "Chicago mayor mocked for suing automakers for car thefts: 'Criminals run rampant' but it's a 'Kia problem' "

    https://www.foxnews.com/media/chica...-car-thefts-criminals-run-rampant-kia-problem

    "Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is facing backlash after filing suit against Kia and Hyundai over claims they manufactured cars that lacked appropriate anti-theft measures, ultimately leading to a surge in car crimes.

    "Democratic Alderman Raymond Lopez mocked Johnson over the lawsuit on 'Fox & Friends,' calling the move a play from a socialist playbook' as crime continues to ravage streets in the Windy City.

    " 'Clearly, we don't have a crime problem. We have a Kia problem in the city of Chicago, according to Mayor Johnson,' Lopez told Steve Doocy on Monday. 'The numbers speak for themselves. 104% increase from last year, a 234% increase in vehicle thefts from two years ago, but yet it's the car's fault.'

    " 'It's the fact that they are so easily taken by criminals who run rampant in the city of Chicago, but we have yet to hear our mayor say anything, one word, about the criminals running rampant in our streets,' he continued. 'And all he does in turn is lambast the media, lambast those who try to hold criminals accountable by playing word games.' "

    "A Washington, DC, 13-year-old juvenile was shot and killed during an attempted carjacking of a federal officer in Northwest on Saturday, according to police."

    https://www.breitbart.com/politics/...-during-attempted-carjacking-federal-officer/

    Begin quote

    The tragic incident is representative of the soaring crime in the District:

    A total of 760 carjackings occurred in the first ten months of 2023, police data show.
    Sixty-five percent of those arrested for carjacking are juveniles.

    U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Matthew Graves, who is responsible for prosecuting those D.C. police arrests, prosecuted only 56 percent of those police arrested in 2023.

    Police said Vernard Toney Jr. tried to carjack an off-duty federal security officer around 10 p.m. Saturday but was killed during the incident. The episode took place on the 600 block of D Street NW, near 7th Street, in the Penn Quarter area, NBC4 Washington reported:

    According to the initial investigation, the off-duty officer was sitting in a white Toyota Highlander when two juveniles demanded that he get out. One of the juveniles was “holding his hand in his front waistband pocket, as if he had a handgun,” a statement by police said.


    “As the victim was getting out of the car, he produced a handgun and shot one of the suspects,” the statement said.


    Toney was shot, and the other young person ran.

    Police said the federal officer legally owned his gun and is cooperating with the investigation. It is unclear what agency employs the officer.

    Old Gzr: It is exceedingly illegal for minors to purchase firearms in the U.S. -- which means absolutely nothing to the criminal element. Gun-control laws only negatively affect the law abiding. The technology to manufacture semi-automatic firearms is 130+ years old. Any basement machine-shop can crank these out. Actually, it is FAR easier to create make-do, open-bolt firing fully automatic weapons than semi-automatics. Numerous crude machine-shops in Pakistan and the Philippines manufacture quality copies of the Mac-10 design for the world's illegal market in weaponry. One has to be mentally defective to imagine that guns can be banned. Those who are at the front of the line for illegal firearms acquisition are career felons.

    There is a grand total of two ways to deal with violent career felons:
    1) Lock them up for decades until they are too old to re-offend.
    2) Kill them on the spot.



    Comment:
    "Rifling has been cut but it still has to be lapped to bring the bore to a mirror finish.When I machined barrels for John Martz Luger carbine maker, the barrels were rifled by the barrel blank maker but they still had to be lapped to bring them to a mirror finish. Lastly, the barrels were finished machined with 3° tapered threads, the front sight ramp and the rear sight block machined integral with the barrel. Lastly, after assembly and test fired the entire firearms was rust blued.I wonder what the bore diameter, lands and grooves measures at."

    "Grandmother, 73, killed after losing arm during horrific carjacking"

    https://nypost.com/2022/03/23/linda-frickey-73-killed-after-losing-arm-during-carjacking/

    Begin quote

    A 73-year-old grandmother was killed during a horrific carjacking in New Orleans when her arm and clothes were ripped off after she got stuck by the seatbelt as the attackers drove off, authorities said.

    Linda Frickey was carjacked by four teens about 1:30 p.m. Monday as she was leaving a business in New Orleans’ Mid-City neighborhood, WWL-TV reported.

    An eyewitness told WWL-TV that the victim was trying to put something in her car when a person “jumped in and kicked her out and she got caught in the wheel well.

    “I heard screaming, like, ‘You’re about to die’ screaming!” the witness said.

    “The door had closed on the seatbelt, and she was stuck in it … I got out of my vehicle screaming, ‘Please stop!’ Other neighbors were also screaming,” he told Fox 8.

    “She was laying there naked, and I thought the indignity she just suffered, it was already too much,” Mascar added.

    “I was telling her to hang in there because every time I heard a siren, I was hoping and praying it was the ambulance. I kept telling her to hang in there, breathing, her eyes were moving. I’ve never seen something so horrific,” Mark added.
