(End of the American Dream)—How does it feel to live in one of the most crime-ridden nations on the entire planet? Our major urban areas are absolutely teeming with predators, and millions upon millions of law-abiding citizens are literally afraid to leave their homes at night as a result. Of course at this point it isn’t exactly safe to be strolling through the streets in the middle of the day either. On Saturday afternoon, a wide receiver that was a first round choice of the San Francisco 49ers during the most recent NFL draft was shot in the chest as a thief attempted to steal his Rolex watch…
According to multiple reporters, with Dion Lim of KGO-TV San Francisco first, San Francisco 49ers’ rookie wide receiver Ricky Pearsall was shot on Saturday afternoon in San Francisco at Union Square. His condition was last reported as stable after he was shot, “through the chest,” according to what SFPD told Sean Cunningham of FOX.
The robbery attempt was for Pearsall’s Rolex watch according to the police department (via Cunningham). There was, “a struggle for the gun,” and the suspect also suffered a gunshot wound. He was wounded and also stable, with both Pearsall and the assailant at SF General Hospital.
If it wasn’t an NFL player that had been shot, this story never would have made the news, because this sort of thing has become extremely common.
Crime in the Bay Area is wildly out of control, and authorities cannot possibly keep up with it all. If you doubt this, just go park your vehicle along a street in a bad part of Oakland or a bad part of San Francisco and see how many minutes it takes before somebody tries to break into it.
Of course things have gotten really bad in many large east coast cities as well.
Brooklyn Bridge Park was once such a nice place to visit, but now it appears that it has become a dumping ground for murder victims…
More human bones were found on Saturday night at Brooklyn Bridge Park.
The remains were on the rocks by the water’s edge. It is the third time in the past two weeks bones were found in the area.
First, patrol officers spotted a skull and other fragments. Then, someone noticed a femur and smaller bones near the carousel.
The woman who made the discovery on Saturday says she had heard about the other instances, so she was intentionally looking around. She says what she found was part of a spine.
Finding a human spine is okay if you are a character in a television crime drama.
It isn’t supposed to happen in real life.
Unfortunately, the criminals just keep getting bolder and bolder. On Sunday, a highly organized group of criminals conducted a shocking raid on a jewelry store in a shopping mall that is “across the street from the Pentagon”…
Police have responded to a smash-and-grab robbery at ritzy shopping mall across the street from the Pentagon.
Arlington County Police said three suspects entered a business at the Fashion Centre at Pentagon City and broke a glass display case with hammers and deployed a fire extinguisher.
The suspects then fled on foot during the raid on Sunday, cops said.
I have been to that mall. Once upon a time, it was quite lovely.
It is being reported that “a high ranking government official was inside the mall” when the robbery was taking place.
Needless to say, the criminals don’t care about that. They are just there to do a job and get out.
Once upon a time, there were limits that most criminals would respect. But in today’s environment, there are no rules.
If you can believe it, someone even stole “the Jaws of Life” from firefighters in Oakland recently…
In the middle of a rescue call last week, someone stole the Jaws of Life from Oakland firefighters, authorities said.
Firefighters had brought out the tool during the call. After they used it, fire officials discovered the equipment had been taken, according to a spokesperson with the Oakland Police Department.
Used by emergency personnel after serious car crashes, the hydraulic tool pries open or cuts through wreckage to rescue someone inside. Jaws of Life tools can be operated by a single individual and generally weigh around 50 pounds.
Why would someone do that?
Sadly, these days people are literally stealing anything that isn’t bolted down. As long as it can be exchanged for money, it is worth stealing.
Of course the most desirable things to steal are the big ticket items. In today’s environment, I don’t know why anyone would want a shiny new vehicle, because vehicle theft has become a massive problem.
In fact, we are being told that we are now facing a “world epidemic” of vehicle theft because it has become such big business for organized groups of thieves. The following comes from Zero Hedge…
It looks like the U.S.’s sole export is no longer just dollars and inflation…we’re also exporting the products of our rising crime rate.
A new report last week says that stolen vehicles have become a “world epidemic” and that there is a rising number of stolen vehicles at east coast ports, according to CBS.
The number of cars seized at the Port of Newark is on the rise, according to CBS News New York’s Derick Waller.
If your vehicle is stolen, there is a chance that it may be shipped to another continent and you will never see it again.

Unfortunately, criminals from other continents are pouring into this country thanks to our wide open borders.
In recent days, an ultra-violent gang from Venezuela known as Tren de Aragua has been making lots of headlines because of what happened at an apartment complex in Aurora, Colorado…
Harrowing new footage has captured the moment an alleged Venezuelan gang seized control of an apartment complex in Aurora, Colorado.
The heavily-armed mob are seen storming through the residence brandishing guns in the video that emerged on Wednesday. A man in a hoodie lugs a high-powered rifle and pounds on a door in the building, while several others wield pistols.
‘A GANG HAS TAKEN OVER several apartment complexes in Aurora!’ local council member Danielle Jurinsky wrote on Twitter.
Cops refused to confirm whether the gunmen belong to the infamous Tren de Aragua cartel, but council member Jurinksy told Fox 31 that the building had been overrun by a Venezuelan gang.
A representative from the company that owns the apartment building says that they couldn’t even send repair people to the building because Tren de Aragua had gained such complete control…
A representative from CBZ spoke with Westword on the condition of anonymity out of fear for his safety. According to the CBZ representative, the complex has fallen into disrepair in recent weeks because he and other employees at the property have been threatened and forced out by violent gangs.
“We lost control of the building, and effectively we were not able to go there due to the gangs, in specific the Tren de Aragua, taking over the properties and threatening our personnel,” he says. “This is not about the property, this is not about the management. To me, this is about what’s going on in the city with the crime itself.”
This is our country now.
Most third world nations actually have lower crime rates than we do.
And more violent gang members just keep pouring into this country with each passing day.
At this stage, gang members far outnumber the police in many of our largest cities.
So what is going to happen if economic conditions become extremely harsh and social order starts to break down on a widespread basis?
We are literally in the process of committing national suicide, but our leaders in Washington have no intention of changing course.
