When the sun goes down every night, America becomes a very frightening place. There are communities all over the country where drug dealing, human trafficking and gang violence have gotten so out of control that authorities don't really know what to do about it. In America tonight, thousands of meth heads will break into homes as they desperately search for enough money for another hit. In America tonight, thousands of children will be sold for sex at truck stops and on street corners. In America tonight, millions of criminal predators will be searching for a new victim. From the top levels of the federal government all the way down to the most depraved criminals on the street, America is rotting. Once upon a time our tremendous affluence masked the moral decay that was happening in this nation, but now that the economy is falling apart the damage to the fabric of our society is being revealed. We have become a nation of addicts, junkies, thrill seekers and predators. When we finally see the U.S. economy fully collapse, millions of desperate, angry and depraved monsters will take out their sick frustrations on all the rest of us.
It isn't talked a lot about anymore, but the meth epidemic in America is getting worse. According to PBS, there are approximately 1.4 million meth users in America. Meth is unbelievable addictive and it can absolutely destroy your life. If you doubt this, just check out these before and after pictures.
Sadly, there are indications that meth use is on the rise once again. According to the DEA, meth seizures increased from 2,839 in 2007 to 6,168 in 2010.
When you take meth, it can literally make you crazy. The following is from a recent USA Today article....
A mother in Bakersfield, California, was sentenced Tuesday for stabbing her newborn while in a meth rage. An Oklahoma woman drowned her baby in a washing machine in November. A New Mexico woman claiming to be God stabbed her son with a screwdriver last month, saying, "God wants him dead."
Large numbers of meth addicts turn into thieves when they run out of money. Often, they will steal just about anything they can in order to get money for their next hit. Some things that meth addicts have stolen recently include agricultural plumbing, copper wiring and lawn sprinklers.
And making meth can be extremely dangerous as well. U.S. hospitals are filled with thousands and thousands of uninsured burn patients that were horribly burned while trying to make "shake and bake" meth.
The following comes from a recent Daily Mail article....
It is filling hospitals with thousands of uninsured burn patients requiring millions of dollars in advanced treatment - a burden so costly that it is contributing to the closure of some burns units.
So-called 'shake-and-bake' meth is produced by combining raw, unstable ingredients in a two-litre bottle.
But if the person mixing the noxious brew makes the slightest error, such as removing the cap too soon or accidentally perforating the plastic, the concoction can explode, searing flesh and causing permanent disfigurement, blindness or even death.
A survey of key hospitals in America's most-active meth states showed that up to a third of patients in some burns units were hurt while making meth, and most were uninsured.
But of course meth is just one of the highly addictive drugs that are plaguing our youth. There are many other nightmarish drugs that could also be discussed. Nearly every community in America is dealing with some sort of a drug problem, and despite the "war on drugs" this crisis just seems to keep getting worse every single year.
Perhaps even more alarming is the rise of human trafficking in America.
When I was going through school, I was taught that slavery had been abolished in the United States.
But that was a lie.
Right now, thousands upon thousands of Americans are living as slaves. Most of them are sex slaves. As you read this, there are women all over America that are literally chained to beds in dark rooms where men pay their "owners" to have sex with them.
The following stats about human trafficking come from a recent Detroit Free Press article....
• Human trafficking is a $32-billion industry worldwide.
• Up to 2 million people are trafficked worldwide every year. Of those, 15,000-18,000 are in the U.S.
• Eight in 10 human trafficking cases involve the sex industry; the others involve labor trafficking.
• In 2010, 2,515 human trafficking cases were under investigation in the U.S.
• Eighty-three percent of victims in confirmed sex trafficking cases in the U.S. in 2010 were American citizens
Many Americans would be absolutely horrified to learn what goes on behind closed doors in America.
All over the nation tonight, vicious monsters will be selling or "renting" young children to other vicious monsters for sex.
The following story of one human trafficking victim comes from a recent Fox News article....
Today, Keisha Head is a wife and mother of three. But more than decade ago, she was the victim of a notorious human trafficker.
At 16-years old, Head says she was being sold on the streets of Atlanta for sex.
“I did not know that a normal, average man who was a preacher, who was a lawyer, who was a senator - could turn into this monster,” Head said. “That is the scariest moment when you are amongst people who claim to be normal yet they purchase you and they turn into these monsters. They rape you. They beat you. And then act as if they're normal. These are not your normal pedophiles.”
When you push morality out of the schools and out of public life, this is the kind of thing that starts happening.
Thousands upon thousands of other women "work for themselves" on the streets of America. Some are willing to let strangers have sex with them for next to nothing.
For example, one woman in Los Angeles was recently arrested for approaching customers at one McDonald's and offering sexual favors in exchange for Chicken McNuggets.
A lot of really weird stuff happens in America after dark.
As the economy has crumbled, thieves all over the country have become increasingly bold and increasingly desperate.
The following are just a few recent examples....
*In Fresno, California the damage caused by thieves stealing copper wire from city street lights is costing the city approximately $50,000 a month. So far, about 2,500 street lights have been stripped of their wiring.
*In northern Alabama, one group of crooks has been using a forklift to pull entire ATM machines out of the ground.
*A while back, a team of ambitious thieves in Pennsylvania actually stole an entire 50 foot long bridge.
Other crimes are committed by members of the government. In Chicago, the bodies of poor people that don't have enough money to bury themselves are being treated with absolutely no respect at all by government officials. Just check out what Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart says that he found....
"Babies are buried 10, 15 to a box. They're buried in there with animal remains. They're buried in there with arms and legs from body parts they found during the course of the year. It is not anything that our county or society should ever sit there and say is acceptable"
Can you imagine that?
What kind of a monster would do such a thing?
Of course I could go on for ages about the sick corruption of our government officials, but that will have to be left for another day.
For now, I want to focus on another rising problem in our society. As I wrote about the other day, the FBI says that there are now 1.4 million gang members living inside the United States. That number has risen by an astounding 40 percent since 2009.
Nearly every major U.S. city has areas that are essentially "owned" by gangs. Some of these gangs are the size of small armies. For example, it is estimated that the Latin Kings have 18,000 members in the city of Chicago alone.
When civil unrest erupts in America, these organized groups of criminal predators will have a field day. Even now, law enforcement authorities in many areas of the country are having an incredibly difficult time trying to contain them.
As things fall apart all around us, an increasing number of Americans are coming to the realization that they are not going to be able to depend on someone else to defend themselves and their families.
Perhaps that is why the American people stocked up on firearms at an astounding rate during 2011.
In some areas of the country, a firefight can potentially erupt just about at any time. The following is from an article that was recently posted on standwitharizona.com....
Barbed wire fencing doesn’t keep illegal aliens off the property anymore. One Starr County, TX rancher doesn’t have time to worry about the illegals these days. He now worries about the smugglers protecting their loads.
“I don’t think they would have any conscience of taking someone’s life,” the rancher says.
He saw that will to kill firsthand. A smuggler shot at him on his own land.
“One round was fired at me, and it missed my head by about two feet,” says the rancher.
He says there’s only way to react.
“Fire all the rounds you have, reload, and do it again,” says the rancher.
We don't do ourselves any favors by pretending that America is going to somehow turn around and become the safe, friendly place that it used to be.
There are millions of criminal predators in this country today that have little or no conscience. They don't care about you, your spouse or your children. All they care about is feeding their addictions.
In the months and years to come, the economy is going to get worse. As it does, all of those predators are going to become even more desperate.
Desperate people do desperate things.
America is going to become a very frightening place. But instead of curling up into a ball and crying about it, the better response is to be strong and courageous and to get prepared the best that you can.
When the economy collapses, it’ll either be me or them….and its not going to be me! I’m glad I live in the Southeast. Every other person owns a firearm and most of us have more than one. You will not individually be able to protect yourselves and your family, so you’d better start organizing your defense groups NOW! We most likely have only 12-15 months before the SHTF.
In some of the larger metropolitan areas, gangs are a problem and they are heavily armed in some cases. The US military is littered with gang members and they are funneling weapons to the streets – hand grenades, fully automatic weapons, etc. Additionally, there are Islamic extremist camps as well. There is one located no more than 45min from me. There are at least 35 known camps throughout the US.
It’s going to be vicious and bloody. Get your minds wrapped around that and prepare or you’ll be one of the victims.
On a positive note, once we come out on the other side of it, America will more closely resemble the country our Founders had intended. The globalist elite will not win here. 84 million firearms have been purchased over the last ten yrs. We The People are the largest standing army on the face of the planet. It will be an asymmetrical war, but know doubt one we will win!!
Well stated… very well stated. Personally looking forward to getting rid of some of the filth.
Land of the freaks and home of the depraved.
Most Americans today are so enslaved, they don’t have a clue what their real Rights are, or what a real free country is. None of the federal drug laws are lawful. The Constitution does NOT authorize the feds to regulate or prohibit or tax any drugs. The DEA, FDA, and the BATFE are totally unlawful agencies and need to be dissolved. THe issue of local state and county regulation of drugs is more obscure. We can more easily get rid of tyranny at the local level, than we can at the federal level. I am against all drug control and regulation. In the early twentieth century, I am told you could have walked into many drug stores and walked out with cocaine, heroin, opium, or marijuana without any prescription. Amphetamines weren’t invented yet then, but they would have been lawful also if they had. Whenever you allow the government to tax and regulate something, then they become the crooks making the price of the object falsely high, like they have now done with tobacco and alcohol. The FDA was started with the supposed idea of making sure drugs were pure and safe. But the FDA uses this power to help big pharm corporations have a monopoly on drugs, most of which are among the most toxic drugs on Earth, and very high priced. The AMA is part of this monopoly, as you have to go to one of their monopoly doctors to get permission to buy one of these drugs. We shouldn’t need or want the government to insure we have safe drugs. Like anything else, you learn to recognize brand name, the reliability of good companies. You do your research about various substances or drugs, to see if it is something you want. The free market gives you the best products at the best prices. The government now blocks you from sueing drug corporations for harm done to you or your kids from their toxic vaccines. So how on Earth do you think the government is protecting you?
More poverty = more crime/desperate acts. With the middle class being wiped out, we will see a paced increase in crime until fall/winter next year when the dollar collapses. Then, you might want to get that shotgun.
Then, of course, the NWO will be at full force with WW3, martial law, and other goodies.
“When I was going through school, I was taught that slavery had been abolished in the United States.”
No, it came back in 1913 with the income tax and then the tyrant FDR enhanced it through withholding.
To Mr. M… i told you to be carefull what you wish for— you aint the tip-o-the spear, but you gaining on it…Grats… its your guts that gave you this glory…
Let the meth heads kill themselves. Clearly they are inferior weaklings who do not have the sense to avoid what even small children know, is poison.
As for sex slavers, or slavers of any kind, this is why everyone should be armed. One could then just KILL the slavers of whatever sort, and be done with it.
See how easy it is?
Satan’s children the banker gangsters have made slaves of near every nation and person on Earth. End Usury world wide. Free the world from satan’s children grip.
Prosperity is just around the corner…..in China, in India, in Russia(maybe) and in Brazil, but not here in the US of A. And most of the young people are too busy fiddling with their smartphones to realize that they have no future.
Brazil? Seriously? I live in Brazil and I don’t know where are the prosperity… unless, of course, you become friend of the communists that took over Brazil since the 90′s. As a brazilian I tell you guys: do NOT go to Brazil, the whole “prosperity” thing is a scam, this country is going down the toilet as well as US – maybe in a slower rate. The growth of our economy is based on debt as well as US bubble. Brazil was never a great power, but in the past people respected each other, and worked hard. This generation (my generation) is garbage, they are as spoiled as the youth of US. Of course that I did not mention the 50,000 homicides per year (1st in world), and the fact that we are NOT allowed to carry or use a gun – we in fact can be arrested if we kill someone by self defense, by “ilegal gun carrying”.
Bring it on! I Have said it before and will continue to say it again “if you want to dance
you have to pay the fiddler” well,my fiddle is tuned and i am ready to play and i am not talking out of my ass either. I flatly refuse to
be a coward and run i will be like the rancher who said he was shot at and he shot back reloaded and shot back again.And yes i could get shot too but i’ll make sure i take as many as i can with me and remember there is nothing to fear but fear it’s self and one other point that makes me mad is these gutless cowards in
washington who refuse to close the border and let this crap continue or pound there drums about gun control like that is going to solve anything all that would do is make things easier
for all the nutcases to do there deeds of horror. So all i can further say is if they want
to meet my two best friends Mr. Smith and Mr. Wesson I Will gladly introduce them and if that is not enough there is there “family members” to.Be Strong and good Luck.
But, Michael, the NRA says violent crime is declining. And maybe 6000+ lbs of meth seized is a sign that the war on Meth is getting more effective.And maybe, the instantaneous nature of the news allows the Faux news’s of the world to report something titillating like the tragedy in SF within minutes of it happening?
So, what’s the truth? The amount of private firearm ownership is at an all time high, more and more people are applying for concealed carry permits, its easier to get one. Perhaps you’re simply doing some scaremongering here?
Yes, but the chump in “charge”, known as Obama was giving his State of the Union address earlier. He boasted of this generations “heroes” who have made America a safer place and more respected around the world. How for the first time in two decades, Osama Bin Laden was no longer a threat to safety of America. He boasted of a thriving post WWII American economy, and how his grand pappy was able to go to college. It all had the making of an overture to war, and I shut him off.
I was always taught by my mother that the front door was the last line of defense and it was the mother’s job to ensure evil didn’t kick it in. That’s why it was important for mom to be home full time. That changed when the husband lost his full time job and could only find a minimum wage job in which he is never home. My new job (part-time minimum wage) takes me away nights & weekends. Our teenagers are unsupervised now. Evil didn’t have to kick in my door, it came in through the wires of the x-box LIVE and the cell phones my kids begged for. We have gotten rid of the LIVE part of the Xbox which introduced my kids to foul mouthed losers & pedophiles. The cell phones are harder to pry from their hands. I call home and hear many voices in the background, but can’t leave my job or I’ll be fired. I come home to find the cabinets’ empty- because the kids who are hanging out are also hungry as their parents are unemployed and there is no food for them at their house. They spend the night, because their homes don’t have heat. Most of the kids are great kids, but all it takes is ONE kid to introduce trouble to the others, and no adult is there to stop it. I don’t worry about the thugs who come out at night. I worry about the formally entitled, newly poor who aren’t handling it so well. I know my family has changed, but so has everyone else…and many….can’t find their honor or character.
I’ve got plenty of guns, ammo, and food. Let the party begin.
Come see us in Ecuador:
http://JourneymanJack.com/ Quito is the Capital, right on the Equator, at 9,350 ft. (1.77 miles) above sea level in the heart of the Andes Mountains, where the weather is 50′s in the evening, and 70′s during the day all year round. Valley of Eternal Springtime! Do not hesitate to contact me for your relocation or exploration needs!
How is your supply of computer repair companies?
When the grocery stores start to run out of food, and trust me it will happen fast, and gas stations empty out, and banks close, take to your weapons, and bomb shelters. If you dont have a safe place to go your screwed. Forget about the city, it will be overrun by gangs, and you will not be safe in a house or building because it will be burned down.
Seeing this firsthand. After 2 years at my low-level job, we had nearly two complete turnovers of employees. I’ve lost all but 2 of the people I started with – all due to drug and alcohol. I nearly lost my job, but took LOA to care for my disabled wife and young children.
And now, most of the neighbors here and a lot of family are going for the firewater, wacky-tobacky, and happy pills. We are doing what we can, but it ain’t much and it ain’t enough! Police are constantly patrolling here, and for the most part it’s doing some to reduce the crime rate, but not to prevent crime.
We haven’t had as much trouble as most of the neighbors have. The thieves and druggies seem to have some ethics code that says the handicapped and disabled are off-limits. Some of the other elderly here who have disables aren’t hit by thefts or break-in’s, either. Who knows how long it’ll last.
Family has been hit hard from thefts and drugs. We lost a brother-in-law from it (God rest his soul), and my wife and I seem to have the most stable marriage out of both sides of our families.
Yes, life is tough. Yes, it will get worse. It’s either battling hunger, or thefts, or bureaucrats, or abusive parents, drugged out cousins, or depressed in-laws – it will be tough; always.
And it will get better. The water collection system is nearly ready. The generators batteries I built work okay. Livestock is still kindling – even in wintertime. Food is plentiful. Doing well with medicine and chemistry. And the other things we do are working well. God has truly blessed us with ability and reward for obedience.
um i think the drug laws have a lot to do with it,criminalising addicts for their health issues,makes the place fearful and ugly,im afraid getting tough has made it tough for everybody…when they win the war on drugs,is when they stop killing people with the legal meds.
why do people take drugs,it cos they want to be happy,but i think the bible belt think you cant have happiness without god,so it must be the devil…demonising people seams to be a word that sums it up,and witch hunting.i think the price needs to come down and people take ownership of there drug issues,jailing people is a joke long term,for long tern is here now,and what has been achieved…zip
Add; BIRDFEEDER to the list of stuff stolen. Who TF steals a %#@%@%@ BIRDFEEDER???
I notice an awful lot of reliance on guns. Someone pisses me off enough ther’ll be no need for a gun. I’ll devise a Fishing Net, BBQ, Spiked Pit, Kenworth Krusher, Big Hammer, Long Knife, Axe, Bio-weapon, Whatever it takes. Wonderful tales exist of WW1 Vimy and Somme Grunts taking out a dozen enemy single-handedly with no gun. Get creative.
move out of that hellhole amerika and start a new life in some other country
Don’t forget the other types of addicts who are not criminals at all, but probably among the working class who can afford it – addicts of the pharmaceutical industry.
Ever imagine what will happen to the millions of Americans who are depending on their next paycheck and a steady supply of shipments to supply them with their anti-psychotic or anti-depressant medications?
Zombie apocalypse would not be an absurd analogy.
America like all empires will come to a messy end. Those of you who think owning few weapons will make any difference to your survival long term would want to wake up. I know you US nutjobs think weapons and violence are the solution to all problems… this is your problem. If the economy and society collapse so do the supply chains, food water electricity and ammunition will all dry up pretty fast. The average american is the size of a small european car and would survive a day without food, an could run as fast as a crippled snail. you cant shoot your way out of it ***************.
Agreed,
Supplies will dwindle rapidly, but some of us have prepared for this. Well stocked, rural strongholds exist
all over this once great nation. Across the border in Canada too. Yes, Cities will burn, but some of our small towns will thrive…
blokes in the UK are waking up and wishing THEY had firearms for the SHTF party
thats coming…scrawny, pale and weak people with bad teeth
will starve before the well fed, Mate.
(Sorry for the stereotyping)
don’t belive television, my friend… the news media types pick the most offensive, ignorant and ugly among us to represent us on ‘the box’… for every mongoloid you see on television describing how the tornado sounded, there are a thousand of us shaking with rage that this is the side of us that is shown to the world… Imagine if monty python were the litmus test for everyone with an accent that sounded like it could have originated within the british empire… be safe, and please, keep up the lively debate… Without it, we are all ‘toast’…
“millions of desperate, angry and depraved monsters will take out their sick frustrations on all the rest of us.”
They ARE the rest of you!
“When you push morality out of the schools and out of public life, this is the kind of thing that starts happening.”
The fourth big lie: things were better in the Good Old Days!
“everyone will decide better safe than sorry and assume every hispanic is a gang member. They are going to have a rough time of it.”
What is your definition of “Hispanic”? A white European from Spain? A mestizo from Central America? a mulatto from the Carribean?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hispanic
…and teach your children well.
I’de bet that the big moneybags eugenicists are rubbing their hands with glee over the wild wild west that the little to no moneybags are becoming. They tell us about the overpopulation crisis, right?
Big moneybags certainly aren’t making a pip squeek about *doing something* about the rampant epidemic of people succumbing to the evils of illegal and legal addiction and the resulting devastation it creates in society, are they?
Oh no, no no. Seems that they’re quite content if ya’ll were addicted to something and unable to keep a clear thinking head, while the rest live in the state of paranoid hiding sling shots.
How many people reading this blog know and love someone who has fallen victim to this drug peddling scourge of society?
Were it your own son or daughter is that what you’de do? Aim your slingshots so high and mighty at them?
SHAME on YOU.
Buy land, grow/raise your own food, go off-grid, learn to use a firearm…do it now!
when the breakdown comes it will be shoot all that comes within 15 ft of you, shoot first ask questions later. personally i have a mean streak
i would like to start shooting gang member now
no trial, no questions of what youre doing
if you look like a gang member or dress gangish
(what i want to do )is shoot all of them. guerrilla warefare tactics i say shoot all gang looking youth now…if you even look like a rufe crowd type you die…THEY WANT WAR THEY GOT WAR…lets rumble! why wait everytime you see one put a bullet in their head.
Ummm..
well.. if you want to take the “shoot first, ask questions later” approach, I can understand that. But it’s kind of risky. You may end up shooting your buddy Danny down the street, you know, the owner of the corner butcher shop where you get your sausages every morning and T-bone steaks every other Friday.
Poor guy is just struggling like the rest of us. When your butcher takes his apron off, he goes home and puts on his sneakers and Levi’s, and goes out to a Yankees baseball game (if he can afford it!) or a Red Sox game, or Cubs, or Diamondbacks, or Mariners – just like you and me. He’s got holes in his Levi’s and dresses like Kurt Cobain, not because he’s a Nirvana fan, but because he can’t afford anything else, which is why Kurt Cobain dressed like that in the first place. (Think about it!) In other words, Kurt Cobain’s reality became your fashion statement. You see, Kurt LIVED that life – sleeping on park benches in Seattle, wearing ripped up clothing, etc.. Retailers eventually picked up on the trend, and said, “Hey, that’s cool fashion! Let’s market some ripped jeans and flannel sweaters in our stores!!” What goes around, comes around. Not a fashion statement, it’s reality. Grunge was reality, before it became mainstream. When it became mainstream, it became “un-cool”.
Okay, time to watch the evening news…
i got a better idea, these areas that
“they” controll…..bomb them! totally
i mean a bunker buster sytle bomb…just drop some bombs on those sections of town,
i believe in whole & wide destruction of these gangs
using battlefield heavy armaments and merciless
slaughter.
Umm..crime rates were down again last year..in almost ever major category including violent offenses.
These are down off of 2010 numbers, which were 40 year lows.
There will ALWAYS be perverts, druggies, freaks and social ne’er do wells, no matter the economy.
EUGENICS ALERT, MICHAEL!!!!!
I know it’s off topic but last night on the radio I heard an announcement for POPULATION CONNECTION.org. The commericial sounds all friendly and good and I went to the site and it has articles on birth control and how scary the planet will be if we reach 8 billon. Check it out Michael and see what you think maybe do another story on the Dream blog.
The government isn’t going to do anything about it, so it’s up to you (us).
I know we are headed for some very hard times, but we also must remember that God can’t and won’t be mocked. There is nothing beyond his hand and all seeing eye and if we repent, turn back to God and yes, even love our enemies, we have his protection. Don’t act and believe as if all is lost. The world leaders want us to be psychologically frail and like sheep convinced we are doomed. They are succeeding based on many blogs I read. There might be thieves, robbers and the like but there are also thousands of God-fearing Christians who have the spirit of God and who do his will. Who can stand against that!Passage after passages in the bible show how his mighty hand defeated armies and conquered lands much bigger than the few that trusted and believed in him. “If God is for you, who can be against you.” We do need to prepare, but that includes our minds to be spiritual as well. Focus on Jesus, what he can do, and without anxiety let’s petition him for strength and protection my friend. It’s not too late. God is in control and no IMF, Soros, federal government, criminal will so much as do a thing without our God aware of it. “What is intended for evil, God intended for good.” And he will work all things out according to his purpose. “Vengence is mine says the Lord.” Trust me, God will repay each man according to his conduct. The best preparing we can do is spiritual as we work to prepare others for the coming hardship. God will weed out those that our not his. He is most interested in our hearts. Please prepare spiritually since only Jesus can stand against what we speak about. And HE WILL DO IT!!!
1.4 million meth users? In a country of 310 million people? That’s only 0.45%, or less than one half of one percent of the population. I’ll take my chances.
Thanks for the time and effort spent in wrting these excellent reports – they have helped me move into a more self sustaining / community reliance mode in my part of rural Western Australia. Got a bit of a problem though……My 23 year old daughter living in relative safe Perth Oz has booked her ticket for New York in March, working (if she can find work- I know with so many USA grads unemployed…..why should she even get a look in!) ..under a USA graduate visa program. I’ve of course made her aware of what ‘s happening in the world and how thinking about some useful skill development should be on her Agenda….so she is aware in a naive sense. However she wants the experience of living in NY for awhile. As per Oz kid ritual, she feels a real need to travel and be adventurous for awhile. Obviously not savvy in relation to guns and protecting herself that well in what is a frightening description of USA reality in thi report ( and parts of Oz would be like that too!) She’s looking for accommodation on the Net now…….any areas in NYC she should definitely not venture into…Any suggestions apart from ‘don’t go….. ” which she won ‘ listen to? She has been to NY in 2009 for a few days & did a quick USA trip -so has some basic bearings. She also has some basic contacts in NY, other Oz kids. Yes, I know……her hard saved money could be used in much better ways…….and she might even get stuck there if the Iranian situation deteriorates/banks fail in the next 6 months…….Grrrrrrr it could be a nail biting time..
NYC is rich in culture,beautiful, vibrant and a toilet at the same time. If she’s street smart and has good friends she’ll be fine. If she’s a risk taker and ventures into certain areas, anything could happen. The link below should help with identifying them.
Even Manhattan can be dangerous after dark.
http://www.dnainfo.com/crime-safety-report/
Suggest a trip up to Montreal, Canada while she’s in NYC
best article in a long time on the net. this is the daily crap most of us don’t see, YET. as for this guy’s daughter? she will be missing or dead in a year or less. the “naive” don’t make it in ny. i left due to rising violence i.e. bowling balls/bricks being thrown off bridges into traffic. IF you are wealthy it’s a whole other ball game. otherwise, stay out. why the ******* would anyone come to this country now is beyond me. try Singapore. anyway we will be toast by 2020….
Where is all this crime your talking about? I live in a mixed race, middle to lower income community. Is there crime? Yeap, but nothing on the level of the 1970′s, and statistics back this up. I feel safer on the streets now than I did when I was 20. Personally, I attribute it to the other drugging of American. Anti psychotic drugs are talking the aggression, and will power, out of Americans. Fine by me, keep the idiots drugged. I enjoy walking in freedom. And if a meth head does come along? Well I live in a Castle doctrine CWP state. He has a fight on his hands.
Night of the living base heads .. Got 12g
I live in Ohio where crime has gotten out of control. My grandparents live in the Toledo metro-area which is number 4 in nation for sex trafficking. I live near Columbus which has become something akin to the Midwestern Sodom and Gomorrah. For 2010, Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinnati all were in the top 20 metro-areas with over 250,000 people for violent crime.
If your hope and faith is not in Jesus Christ I ask you now to repent and believe the Gospel. It’s gonna get very rough in the days ahead and only Christ will sustain you. God bless you all.
