According to crime data, Baltimore, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Atlanta and New York City are all on pace to supersede their levels of violent crime last year.<\/p>\n<p>The Big Apple has seen a near 26 percent jump in violent crime compared to the same time last year, while Washington D.C. has experienced an 8 percent hike. Meanwhile, Philadelphia and Baltimore have recorded increases of seven and 6.1 percent respectively.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cPeople are robbing, people are killing people,\u201d said Janice Johnson Dias, a sociology professor at John Jay College of Criminal Justice. \u201cPeople are doing a lot of things, I don\u2019t feel safe as we used to.\u201d Janice Johnson Dias, a sociology professor at John Jay College of Criminal Justice.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Homicides are reportedly driving violent crime rates up nationwide, increasing 30 percent from 2019 to 2020 and an additional 5 percent from 2020 to 2021 with rates expected to increase again this year. Experts say anti-police sentiment, an emergence from pandemic restrictions and a lack of judicial enforcement are to blame amid waning confidence in government\u2019s ability to protect it\u2019s citizens.<\/p>\n<p>In California, residents of some cities have pushed to recall liberal district attorneys. San Francisco voters recalled District Attorney Chesa Boudin earlier this month, partly due to his policies which eased prosecution and pushed for reduced incarcerations. In Los Angeles County, opponents of District Attorney George Gascon are currently collecting signatures to trigger a recall election against the progressive<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cI think as goes California, so goes the nation,\u201d stated Jonathan Hatami, Deputy District Attorney of Los Angeles County. \u201cAnd so what we\u2019re looking at really is that we\u2019ve given Chesa Boudin the boot in San Francisco, we are going to give George Gascon the boot in Los Angeles. And I do believe that will be the beginning of the end of the reign of rogue and radical prosecutors throughout the nation.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Earlier this month, the Recall DA George Gascon campaign announced they passed the official threshold of signatures needed to initiate a recall and revealed they collected nearly 567,000 signatures.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Volunteers make this movement possible. Thank you! <\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve eclipsed 567,000 signatures. Aiming to reach at least 700k by July 6.
