Homicides are increasing in record-breaking numbers in cities across America. Twelve major cities ALL just broke their all-time homicide records. These murders are not just occurring in Chicago and New York, but in cities otherwise considered generally safe– like in Rochester, Austin, Texas, Toledo, Baton Rouge. These are cities that, until recently, have not been immediately associated with violent crime. ABC News reported this story that included a statement saying the reasoning behind this dramatic increase in homicides is unclear.
Our guest Michael A. Letts, founder of InVest USA, a nonprofit organization providing Active Shooter Vest to officers in need, as well as serving as an advocacy voice for first responders nationwide, adamantly disagrees that the cause of the rise is unclear. He is joining us with the following questions and views:
Suggested Interview Questions: for Michael Letts
1.) Do you agree with ABC News that the cause for dramatic increases in homicides in unexpected cities in America is unclear?
A.) It is naïve and deceptive to state that is unclear why there is a rise in homicides across the country. It is a well-orchestrated movement to destroy America’s freedoms, law and order, and justice system to create anarchy and the need to disarm its citizens.
2.) What are some probable causes for the dramatic increases in homicides in cities across America?
A.) A Public education system devoid of character/ respect values and training. A campaign by Black Lives Matter encouraged rioting and looting against law and law enforcement. A growing number of politicians are soft on crime and devoid of holding people accountable. Government leaders claiming to care about the people who elected them to serve and protect are glaringly hypocritical when they refuse to support the justice system.
3.) What are some proposals to counter this rise in violent crime and homicides?
A.) We the American people must understand the seriousness of this situation…….It is indeed a National Security Crisis that will result in the collapse of America as a Super Power and Beacon of freedom and hope for the world if not responded to appropriately. There are several suggestions to support the thin blue line on our website: InvestUSA.org.
4.) What can communities do to help themselves reverse this crime wave trend?
A.) WE need to be sure every police officer has a bulletproof vest.
5.) What is the percentage of police officers who are not provided with a bulletproof vest by their cities?
A.) 90% of our police force have no chest protection. They are literally sitting ducks for snipers and criminals on the street.
6.) Your organization InVest USA is a charitable organization that provides body armor to police officers. Tell us more about InVest USA?
- What can we do to partner with InVest USA to support our First Responders?
A.) By visiting InVestUSA.org and seeking our resources and ways to show support to those who put their lives on the line every day to protect us. www.investUSA.org
