And the problem's going to continue to escalate until we get DAs and judges that impose actual penalties for committing Class A misdemeanors and above. Soros-backed DAs and judges are giving violent criminals get-out-of-jail-free cards, which does nothing more than make them feel empowered to go out and commit more, and even more heinous, crimes. There was a story within the past two weeks of a guy who had been arrested and been given personal recognizance bond (or very low, as in $100) 6 times in one year...and it took him finally getting nailed with a murder charge to actually put him behind bars...at least for a while.
Find a murder charge and nowadays it seems there's about an 80% chance that the criminal was already out on bond when the crime took place.
We may need an addition to Cooper's Color Codes, something between Yellow="Relaxed Alert" and Orange="Specific Alert." Yellow doesn't always cut it anymore. Amber is halfway between pure yellow and pure orange on the color wheel, so maybe we need a Condition Amber="Hypervigilant though No Specific Threat." Sort of like DEFCON 3 in the five DEFCON levels.
Doesn't strictly apply at 03:00 when you're sleeping other than the preparedness steps you take before hitting the sack. But after the sound of glass breaking I don't want to be fiddling with a safe in the nightstand drawer or trying to press the instant alert button on an alarm keypad.
