AMERICA IN CRISIS: 7.9.22 - We Are Witnessing A Stunning Breakdown Of Law

 We Are Witnessing A Stunning Breakdown Of Law And Order, And The Overwhelmed Police Seem Powerless To Stop It- by Michael Snyder - http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/we-are-witnessing-a-stunning-breakdown-of-law-and-order-and-the-overwhelmed-police-seem-powerless-to-stop-it/ This country is not the same place that it was ten years ago. In fact, it is not even close to the same place that it was five years ago. Violent crime is out of control inmany of our major cities, and there aren’t enough police to handle it all. So in many cases a police officer literally never shows up when someone reports a serious crime. Unfortunately, the number of serious crimes just keeps going up. In 2020, we witnessedthe worst spike in violent crime in U.S. history, but 2021 was supposed to be a year when rates of violent crime started going back down. Of course that didn’t happen, and now 2022 is on pace to be even worse than either 2020 or 2021… Violent crimes are on the rise in six of America’s major cities and set to outpace the already historic levels of 2021 violent crime. Baltimore, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Atlanta, and New York City are all on pace to break their 2021 levels of violent crime halfway through this year, withthe nation’s largest city leading the group, according to crime data reviewed by Fox News. At this point, violent crime is up 25.8 percent in New York City compared to the first half of last year. That is staggering. Of course New York City still has a way to go before it gets as bad as Chicago. In the Windy City, there are hundreds of thousands of “high-priority emergency service calls” each year, and last year there were no police available to respond to those calls52 percent of the time… New data uncovered by Wirepoints through public records requests to the Chicago Police Department (CPD) reveal that in 2021 there were 406,829 incidents of high-priority emergencyservice calls for which there were no police available to respond. That was 52 percent of the 788,000 high-priority 911 service calls dispatched in 2021. So if you are the victim of a violent crime in Chicago, your odds of having a police officer available to help you are about the same as guessing a coin flip correctly. The following is a partial list of “high-priority emergency service calls” for which no police officer was available in 2021… •14,955 – assaults in progress. •17,828 – batteries in progress. •16,350 – person with a gun. •5,210 – person with a knife. •12,787 – shots fired (reports from people, not the city’s automated “Shotspotter”) •1,352 – person shot. •887 – person stabbed. •14,265 – domestic battery. Despite numbers such as these, there are lots of people out there that are relentlessly calling for the police to be “defunded”. Do they want total anarchy? Because that is what would happen. Our streets are already bad enough. As you can see from this video, police in Chicago are having a really difficult time even protecting themselves at this point. But Chicago actually doesn’t have the highest murder rate in the nation. That honor goes to New Orleans… It’s no secret that New Orleans struggles with violent crime, but new statistics paint a grim picture of the Crescent City being on pace to be the murder capital of the UnitedStates if trends don’t change in 2022. According to data from AH Datalytics, compiled using the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) program, New Orleans has a per capita year-to-date homicide rate of 72 per 100,000residents. The next three U.S. cities behind New Orleans are Birmingham with a per capita homicide rate of 59 per 100,000 residents and Baltimore and St. Louis, each with a per capita homicide rate of 58 per 100,000 residents. So far this year, the murder rate in New Orleans is up 44 percent. But the corporate media is trying to convince us that all of this is perfectly “normal”, aren’t they? Do you believe them? One man that will never be fooled is World War II veteran Carl Spurlin Deke. He just turned 100 years old on June 29th, and when he was interviewed by a local news outlethe boldly declared that the U.S. “is going to hell in a handbasket”… Deke’s gratitude for his life quickly turned into an emotional confession about his concern about the entitlement and ungrateful grievance erupting from younger generationssaying, “People don’t realize what they have. They b*tch about it. And then nowadays, I am so upset because the things we did, the things we fought for, and the boys that died for it, it’s all going down the drain.” Deke began weeping as he added “Our countryis going to hell in a handbasket. We haven’t got the country we had when I was raised, not at all.” The 100-year-old WWII vet cried for those growing up in America today saying, “Nobody will have the opportunity I had. It’s just not the same. That’s not what our boys, that’snot what they died for.” Sadly, he is 100 percent correct. We are in an advanced state of decline, and it is getting worse with each passing day. If things are this bad now, what will this country look like once economic conditions deteriorate quite a bit more? Previous generations of young Americans were equipped to handle adversity. This generation of young Americans is not. The thin veneer of civilization that we all used to be able to take for granted is steadily disappearing, and our society is evolving into a horror show that would have beenunrecognizable to previous generations. If we would have done things differently, we could have gotten much different results. Our choices have consequences, and now most of our major cities are being transformed into crime-infested hellholes right in front of our eyes. ------------------------------ From Bondage� Back Into Bondage - By Jack Kinsella - https://www.raptureready.com/2022/07/07/from-bondage-back-into-bondage-by-jack-kinsella/ Alexander Fraser Tytler lived from 1748 to 1813. He was a professor of history at Edinburgh University. In his book, The Decline and Fall of the Athenian Republic, publishedin 1776, he made the following observation: �A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. Fromthat moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world�s greatestcivilizations has been 200 years.� The historian, Gibbons, attributed the collapse of the Roman Empire to this same cause. According to Tytler, there is a life cycle to the life of democracy. It is important to remember that his theory was based on his study of the great democracies of history,like Greece and Rome. He was published in 1776 before there was an American democracy. Tytler�s life-cycle model runs as follows; •Bondage •Spiritual faith •Great Courage •Liberty •Abundance •Selfishness •Complacency •Apathy •Dependency •Back into Bondage Although published before the Declaration of Independence, Tytler�s outline could have been published yesterday, and people would assume it was a thumbnail sketch of US historyto the present day. America was born out of bondage, but the Founding Fathers attempted to avoid falling into Tytler�s mold by creating a Republic instead of a pure democracy. In a true democracy, the voting majority wins no matter what the question. In the American republic, only such things as were not already forbidden by Divine Law were opento public review. In the American republic, the public could never hold a vote to repeal murder statutes, for example, because murder is forbidden by Divine Law. The Founding Fathers had greatspiritual faith and great courage, which, when mixed together, produced the US Constitution, America�s assurance of Liberty. With our Liberty came America�s great prosperity. With great Prosperity comes, according to the model, Selfishness. The Roaring 20s, the first �Decade of Greed, � brought with it the collapse of the Stock Market and the Great Depression. It also bankrupted the country. The American Republicbecame a pure democracy with the passage of the Banking Act of 1933. The Banking Act was actually an admission of bankruptcy by the United States following the Crash of 1929. America�s gold assets were seized, private ownership of gold wasdeclared a crime, and the gold collected was shipped to Europe to satisfy our creditors. The US Republic became the Corporation of the United States, complete with a new flag � the one with gold fringes you see in federal office buildings. The Secretary of the Treasury does not work for the United States but for our creditors, who are the foreign banking concerns that own the Federal Reserve, which is neitherFederal nor is it a reserve. (I explain all this in detail in my book on the money trust. This is just a teaser, but it is fascinating stuff.) Today, the courts are currently clogged with cases of corporate executives charged with stealing millions from stockholders, wiping out the life savings of working Americans,erasing pension funds, and destroying lives. Tytler�s model goes on, with Selfishness breeding Complacency. If there were one word I�ve heard used more than any other to describe how it was that September 11 could havehappened, it would be the word �Complacent.� Out of Complacency comes Apathy. Election 2000 was a case study in Apathy. Only a tiny fraction of the eligible electorate showed up at the polls. From Complacency comes Dependency. Entitlement programs create dependency. When the government wants to pass an unpopular bill, they invent some threat to some entitlement program, usually Medicare or SocialSecurity. (Entitlement programs began in America as part of Roosevelt�s �New Deal� that closely followed the passage of the Banking Act of 1933.) Political pundits call it �scare tactics,� but the reason the tactics work is because of the dependence of the public on entitlement programs to stay afloat. Which brings us to the last Stage of Tytler�s life cycle: Back into Bondage. But centuries before Tytler, the Apostle John also foretold the collapse of civilization and its subsequent willing embrace of dictatorship and bondage � in the last days. �And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?� (Revelation13:4).
