“‘Good enough’ never is!” ~ Debbie Fields
Terrorist activity within CONUS(continental United States) and general violent crimes are increasing exponentially and are likely to get much worse.
The situation is so discouraging that our leftist media is desperately/deliberately under-reporting all violent crime because it makes their Democrat darlings look bad.
Not only do anti-Jewish attacks, batteries, and murders go under-reported by the media, but even police executives join the deception, so long as it supports their self-serving narrative.
Example:
The President of the Board at the Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue in Detroit was attacked and stabbed to death next to her own home on Saturday.
Current Status: No arrests and no suspects.
Yet, Detroit Police immediately (in an apparent display of clairvoyance) piously declared that this murder was;
“Not motivated by antisemitism.”
Amazing the way they can be so sure of that when they don’t even have a suspect!?
Detroit has a large Islamic population, much of it defiantly non-assimilated, and it has a well-earned reputation for violence.
In Hagerstown, MD., a circuit judge was murdered, shot to death, in his own driveway last Thursday.
I am deeply saddened by the senseless killing of Judge Andrew Wilkinson. Our hearts go out to his family, loved ones, and the Hagerstown community. https://t.co/XYle9oq1iR

Just hours before the murder, this judge presided over a ‘shocking’ divorce and domestic child custody case and had rendered a judgment unfavorable to the suspect.
No arrests so far.
What we should note about the above cases is that these two (now dead) victims were precipitously assaulted and murdered when they were “at home.”
Many naively think that the closer they get to their own home, the “safer” they are!
Thus, many who regularly “go armed” foolishly disarm themselves the instant they cross the threshold of their own homes.
As so many unarmed Israelis unhappily discovered on 6-7 Oct 23, there is no “safety,” and there is no “safe place.”

I really do wonder why our local county judge who had all but one entrance to the county court house sealed and a metal detector doorway installed for all visitors to go through was thinking when he had a license plate labeled “County Judge” installed on his vehicle. This is the same guy who justified the securing of the court house by referencing a shooting which happened OUTSIDE of the Tyler Texas courthouse some 18 years ago. I hope none of the many criminals who are given Deferred Adjudication come after him in his County Judge Pickup truck! Recent sentencing… Read more »
