    There have been 30 armed carjackings at Philadelphia gas stations as of mid-November compared to seven in 2021, according to the news outlet. That marks a nearly 330% increase of such incidents.

    Carjackings overall in the City of Brotherly Love have nearly doubled this year compared to 2021, with more than 1,200 carjackings so far this year. The city broke its record for most-recorded carjackings in its history in September when police recorded more than 1,000 carjackings.
    Philly reelected the same Democratic mayor who says nothing is wrong, it’s just the press with their lurid headlines.

    The Republican-led legislature impeached the Philadelphia district attorney Larry Krasner, ( D-Soros), But I don’t know if they got him out of office yet.

    If criminals don't have repercussions for their crimes, they'll just keep on being criminal scumbags and the dems know it. They just don't care. They hope the overt crime will finally break society to the point where they can pick up the pieces and create their socialist "utopia".

    Yeah, Security dude, if you're gonna carry a rifle, carry a rifle. Make it worth your while. Dont carry a giant pistol that wont be that much better than your sidearm.

    The honcho security dude at 2:10 was interviewed by Jesse Waters last night. The way that city is? Heavily armed security is a growth industry.

    Hopefully it'll help. If the gubbermint won't help keep it's people safe, then hopefully private businesses can find a way to fend off crime on their own like this. Not much of a choice with the piece of :poop: DA they have... :(

    For sure. PCC is not enough for overt security in Philly. Those dudes routinely run with AR/AK pistols and full auto. If they come, they'll be ready for a fight.

    Or is the situation the city is in due to the fact that the criminals know it's very unlikely that anyone will effectively fight back? Will guaranteed armed security be a deterrent, no matter how poorly armed? I'm curious to see what effect this actually has.

    Honestly it would be nice if it works, or at least reduces the number of incidents. It's something that a lot of places can adopt that could help counter Progressive DA's and police forces being undercut from above. The only other alternative I see is vigilantism and that could conceivably go very poorly.
