South Florida's crime

Does the crime in south Florida affect us all?
I agree that the crime in south Florida does affect all of us. Some people may react to the crime differently. Some people want to go out and buy guns or other weapons for protection. I think that sometimes that adds to the crime, but others don’t think so. It affects how people think and feel toward others. The crime here has gotten so bad that not even that police trust anyone, and to be honest I wouldn’t either. Just look and see how many police officers have been shot and killed just in Broward and Miami-Dade. Sometimes we have to do thing to avoid getting robbed, that yes it is going out of our way but it is the best thing for us to do. For example all of expensive jewelry and important papers are all in the bank security box. Upgraded the alarm system at home and all of our cars have alarms, make sure that all the windows are closed and the front door is always locked. I never leaving anything in my car unless it’s in the trunk of my car, I also never leave my car unlocked even when I’m at the gas station. The crime in south Florida does affect all of us maybe in different ways but it does.

  1. YOu know what's funny is that there are still places in the US where you can leave your front door open or unlocked, your car unlocked, and nothing will get touched. You'd be crazy to do that here! However I do think that the current economic situation has a direct correlation with the rise in crime.
