Crime in Charlotte

Only if you're very close and involved in the area is it likely that you hear about crime in the University of North Carolina at Charlotte area. You see, the city council takes great efforts to suppress any news stories that might harm the image of "Charlotte, USA." However, there is crime.

Interestingly, this is a group of thugs who are traveling around, violently robbing people at knifepoint. They have selected their victims on purpose -- they are all unarmed, and the robbers know this. Why? Because it's against the law to carry a firearm at all on the campus of UNCC.

So, if you obey the law, you are trusting the university and the city to protect you. That's not happening. You see, the city of Charlotte has enough money to buy and build new basketball arenas, pay for "living wages," airports, tourism, and trains that no one will use; but somehow they don't have enough money to actually pay for police to protect people from these thugs.

You have two choices. You can willingly submit to these thugs and hope they don't decide to start adding assault and murder to their tactics, or you can break the law and shoot the bastards where they stand. I don't think even the OJ jury will convict you if you shoot one of a group of eight who attack you with knives. Yes, it really has come to this point. You cannot trust the city of Charlotte to protect you against violent thieves -- which means you either surrender or take responsibility for your own life.

Of course, feel free to contact your city council member and ask for police protection. Don't actually expect them to listen to you, however. They're too busy spending billions on the Mayor Patrick McCrory signature light train line.

1 You know, I've noticed that since I bought my house here in Charlotte in January of this year, I haven't seen more than 5 or 6 police cars?

2 When I lived in Charlotte, I once saw a person walking down a residential street, firing a gun. Being a good citizen, I called 911. After about 5 minutes of busy signals, I finally got through. The phone rang, unanswered, for about 4 more minutes. I reported the person shooting in the street a block away from my house. They said they'd send the police. Being a good citizen, I then armed myself and sat on the front porch, should said shooter become more dangerous. He went the other way down the street. I waited. 20 minutes later a police car drove by. It was going about 45 mph (in a 20mph zone). It did not slow or stop. They never contacted me again, nor ever checked on the shooter. I moved 6 months later.
