Prison Planet.com » Flash Mob Crimes And Organized Looting Have Become A Normal Part Of Life In America

 

Once upon a time, most Americans had never even heard of “flash mob robberies” or “organized looting”. Now they are considered to be a part of normal life in America.

On Saturday, more than 20 teens stormed into a trendy clothing store in Chicago and stole more than $3,000 worth of jeans, but it barely made a blip on the national news because this kind of thing has become so common. After all, we just saw the exact same kind of thing happen in Jacksonville,Detroit, Baltimore and a whole bunch of other places. Flash mob crimes have become so common in Chicago that they take public opinion polls about them. But when I first started writing about this phenomenon a couple of years ago, hardly anyone knew what “mob robberies” were.

Beck: As Crackdowns on Lemonade Stands Mount, Kids Will Learn to Acquiesce to Government

Last week Glenn Beck discussed the all-encompassing reach of the Nanny State as local officials have been cracking down, not on gang violence or organized crime rings, but on enterprises as innocent as children’s lemonade stands and bake-sales.

Border Wars Texas is Ground Zero (update) Texas Border Security Report

“During the past two years, the state of Texas has become increasingly threatened by the spread of Mexican cartel organized crime,” the report concluded.

The report states six of the seven Mexican drug cartels have “command and control” operations in Texas cities.

“Texas has become critical terrain and operational ground zero in the cartel’s efforts to expand into the United States,” the report stated.

McCaffrey said the cartels are heavily recruiting Texas gang members to help insure the transportation of drugs into the United States and cash from the sale of drugs back into Mexico. McCaffrey said the Texas Department of Public Safety estimates at least 18,000 Texas gang members are already working for the cartels, and the number of prison gangs working with the cartels increased from four to twelve in the last year.

“That is an enemy division inside Texas that is armed and criminal in nature and fueled by drug money,” McCaffrey said.

Informants: FBI Ignores Border Corruption:

Two highly-respected whistle blowers with law enforcement backgrounds shockingly claim that the FBI is refusing “to investigate allegations that the Mexican drug cartels have corrupted U.S. law officers and politicians in the El Paso border region” after “big names” started to surface as reported by Diana Washington Valdez for the El Paso Times: “Greg Gonzales, a retired Do a Ana County sheriff‘s deputy, and Wesley Dutton, a rancher and former New Mexico state livestock investigator, said that instead of arrests and prosecutions of suspects, their whistle-blowing activities have resulted only in threats and retaliation against themselves.”

Of course, it is axiomatic that organized crime cannot exist without public corruption…………
