Crime Is Taking Over Small Town America.
Crime Is Taking Over Small Town America.
Are you glad you are not living anywhere near a major city where
crime seems to be out of control? Have you moved your family to
the suburbs or to a smaller town so that you and your children
can be safe and so that you don't have to deal with the rising
crime of the cities? If so you may come to find that you have
done so for no reason. Crime seems to be growing faster in
smaller towns than anywhere else.
Maybe you are afraid of the big city because all you hear on the
news is all the bad things that are happening there, such as
murders, rapes, shootings, drugs and gangs? This is not really a
good reason to be afraid of the city when you take into
consideration the hundreds of thousands or maybe even millions
of people who live there and of course there are bound to be bad
people among so many.
Actually, crime is decreasing in many of our major cities today
while if you have been reading the news you may have caught on
to the fact that crime is rising in smaller towns and suburbs,
even in the country crime seem to be increasing. One reason for
this is the growing epidemic of meth amphetamines which is
taking over our rural areas. Like with all kinds of drugs you
will find increase of other crimes happening. People do whatever
to feed their growing habit and also to protect their so called
"investment".
Drugs very often seem to be the root to all evil because without
them people would not do all these crazy things and commit
crimes to support their addiction. Drug use is no longer
something that takes place only in the ghetto but also among the
most influential people among us, it is more common and accepted
than most people realize. According to statistics some of your
closest friends probably use some kind of drugs and you may not
ever know.
The reason meth is now hitting small towns and the country is
because it can be homemade with ingredients which are normally
found on farms. It seems to be the young generations
"moonshine", only thing is that this bring along with it a lot
of crime. Crimes which before has been known as inner city
crimes. Anymore you can't tell if a person is a drug user
because he fits in that particular category. There are no "drug
categories.
As you can see, if you moved away from the city to avoid crime
you may be disappointed because you might just have jumped from
the frying pan and into the fire. Crime is really nothing you
can run from, it is something you just have to try your best to
avoid and as far as your kids go, educate them about what is
going on in the world and do not try to hide the terrible
reality from them. They need to be prepared to face what is out
there.
