Crime rates spike and terrorists are at an all time high surrounding the 21st anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks.
OPINION ON STORY
OBJECTIVE? WHY ITS TIMELY?
Prior to 9/11/01, crime rates had dropped well over 60% from the 1990’s. Terrorism typically was not a common fear in the United States. After the strike on the Twin Towers, everything had changed for the citizens of America.
While terrorists haven’t been able to come anywhere near as intense as 9/11, we have entered a new era of terrorism which concerns many American’s.
Cities all around our country are losing police day by day as well. Police are retiring, taking leaves of absence, and so much more all due to these painstakingly high crime rates. Recruitment for the police officers are depleting as well.
Not having these forms of safety on the streets can leave American’s in these cities feeling unsafe and unprotected.
Fortunately, history has shown that there can be hope for the troubles America goes through. Leaders who chose to use their voice and influence in a positive way can help make common citizens feel safe in their own country.
Time will tell if these leaders advocate for the greater good of our land; for now, though, our streets are not as safe as they once were.
