After reading about the Milan Loncar story I started carrying cash or an old wallet every time I leave the house to walk the dog so i have something to give if I’m mugged. Truly insane that this is what we’ve come to

I’ve lived here my entire life. Yes there’s always bad neighborhoods and bad things that can happen if you’re not paying attention. That’s part of living in a big city.
The threats were always there but now they occur much more frequently and that is an indisputable fact backed up by numbers. Here’s one for you; how many carjackings do you think there were in Philadelphia in 2019? The answer: 198 How many carjackings have there been in 2022? 1,210 and we’re not finished yet.
So to answer your question, yes it is considerably meaner now. My memory is just fine
