The Los Angeles Police Department has some sage advice to lawful citizens.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cDue to an increase in violent street robberies, Robbery-Homicide Division has become aware of an ongoing crime trend of follow-home robberies,\u201d an LAPD press release read, \u201cIf you are being robbed, do not resist the robbery suspects; cooperate and comply with their demands. Be a good witness.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Follow-home robberies are just what it seems- the victim is followed home by criminals and robbed there. The LAPD would rather have citizens and their families in the home risk death at the hands of psychopathic criminals than defend themselves.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t think so.<\/p>\n<h3>LAPD Tells Citizens \u2018We Can\u2019t Help You, So Cooperate and Comply with Criminals and Be a Good Witness\u2019<\/h3>\n<p><strong>By Larry Keane<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Los Angeles residents are living through a nightmare scenario. The local district attorney announced he\u2019s releasing a 24-year-old convicted murderer after serving only six years of a 50-year sentence. Police are, at the same time, telling everyone, including would-be criminals, that they\u2019re unable to quickly respond to calls for help and that crime victims should just \u201ccooperate and comply\u201d with the perpetrators.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s on top of the fact that California has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation, all obstacles to law-abiding citizens wanting to buy a firearm for protection.<\/p>\n<p>The Los Angeles Police Department tweeted a warning that they\u2019re in the midst of a surging crime wave, including increased so-called \u201cfollow-home\u201d burglaries. That\u2019s where a criminal watches their victim leave a store, follows them home then robs them.<\/p>\n<p>The paltry warning is frustrating for sure, but after caving to \u201cdefund the police\u201d activists last year, the L.A. City Council voted 12-2 to cut $150 million from this year\u2019s police budget. That\u2019s left law enforcement reduced and resulting to public safety by press release.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>LAPD never heard of Colonel Cooper&#8217;s Condition Yellow, apparently. Instead of counseling citizens to maintain situational awareness and  practice self defense they would rather unroll crime tape and take pictures of the victims.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s go LAPD.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/lapd-tells-citizens-we-cant-help-you-so-cooperate-and-comply-with-criminals-and-be-a-good-witness\/\">TTAG<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>California is experiencing a perfect storm of surging crime, catch-and-release no bail policies, police defunding and &hellip; <a title=\"LAPD- Be a Good Victim\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=119665\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">LAPD- Be a Good Victim<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":657,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[209,238,227],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-119665","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-teh-stoopid","category-government-incompetence","category-police"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119665","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/657"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=119665"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119665\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":119667,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119665\/revisions\/119667"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=119665"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=119665"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=119665"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
