Mayor Karen Bass, California Governor Gavin Newsom, and President Joe\u200d Biden. Baggaley accused them \u2063of neglecting the safety of\u2063 business owners \u200blike himself in\u200c the face of increasing break-ins.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Pointing to the string of burglaries in his\u200c neighborhood, Baggaley exclaimed, &#8220;What are we supposed to do? We&#8217;re a small construction company.&#8221; He revealed his disappointment in the Democrats he had voted for, including Bass, Biden, and Newsom, as his\u200d own business fell victim to theft.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Expressing his frustration, Baggaley declared, &#8220;At some point you have to give me\u200d a reason to vote for you again.&#8221; He emphasized the challenges faced by his company and the difficulty of simply surviving.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>WATCH:<\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Another\u2063 brazen break-in caught \u2064on camera.

The stolen vehicle, a Kia \u200dSoul, was traced back to an \u200bLAPD impound yard, recognized by a chalk mark on its window.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Among the stolen items were music equipment belonging\u2064 to Baggaley and his brother, who used to be in a band. The estimated value of\u2062 the stolen and damaged equipment and tools\u2063 amounted to thousands of dollars.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-describedby=\"sk-tooltip-9096\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1700760801843000&#038;usg=AOvVaw2PQrVSrJfhxNb4LcARqniG\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Baggaley received \u2062a notification from his Ring system about the break-in and\u200c rushed to his business, instructing his wife to call the police. However, officers took two\u2062 hours to\u200d respond, leaving Baggaley frustrated and questioning their absence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to Baggaley,\u200c the police claimed, &#8220;We don&#8217;t have anyone in\u2062 the area.&#8221; He recounted the agonizing wait, saying, &#8220;It just kept going and \u2064they didn&#8217;t respond\u2063 for two hours.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In \u2063an attempt to \u2063combat retail theft and organized robberies, Los \u200dAngeles launched a \u2062task force. However, Baggaley&#8217;s experience highlights the ongoing challenges faced by business \u2062owners and the need\u2064 for effective action.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As Bass had previously stated, these crimes are far from victimless. The task\u200d force must fulfill its promise to aggressively investigate and hold the\u2063 perpetrators fully accountable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> What measures should Democratic leaders prioritize to\u2063 deter crime and support \u200dbusiness owners, and how can they\u2064 engage in open dialogue with small business owners to address their unique challenges<\/h2>\n<p><span>  \/status\/1457217009047618562?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&#8221;>November 7, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Baggaley&#8217;s frustrations are not unique. Many\u2064 business owners across the country have voiced their concerns regarding the lack of protection and support \u200dfrom Democratic leaders. \u200dThe rise in \u2064crime rates, especially burglaries\u2064 and break-ins, has profoundly impacted small businesses that are already struggling to \u200c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/california-farmers-weigh-in-on-hardships-ahead-of-farm-bill-reauthorization\/\" title=\"California farmers express concerns about upcoming Farm Bill reauthorization.\">stay afloat amidst<\/a> the economic challenges posed by \u200bthe pandemic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While Baggaley specifically targets Mayor Bass, Governor Newsom, and President Biden, his sentiment reflects the wider dissatisfaction felt by business owners nationwide. The Democrats, who often tout themselves as champions of the working class and small business owners, are now facing \u200ccriticism for their perceived failure\u200b to address the rising crime wave.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In recent years, cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco, and \u2064New \u2064York have witnessed a surge in crime rates. The brazen nature of these break-ins and the lack of swift action taken by local \u200cauthorities have left business owners feeling \u2062abandoned and unsupported. The frustration stems not only from the financial losses incurred but also the emotional toll faced by these entrepreneurs who pour their \u200cblood, sweat, and tears into their businesses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">One of the primary duties of any \u2063government is to ensure\u200d the safety and security of its citizens and their property. Yet, \u2064the inability to address the rising crime rates has eroded the confidence of\u200c business owners in the ability of the Democrats to fulfill this\u200b fundamental responsibility. It creates a sense of disillusionment\u200b and betrayal, as they witness their\u200d hard-earned investments being stolen, their livelihoods threatened, and their dreams shattered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The impact of burglary and break-ins goes beyond just the immediate financial losses. It disrupts \u200dthe day-to-day\u200b operations of businesses, leads to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/only-3-of-san-francisco-restaurants-have-not-been-vandalized-in-past-month-survey\/\" title=\"Survey: Vandalism Hits 97% of San Francisco Restaurants in a Month.\">increased insurance premiums<\/a>, and instills fear\u200d and anxiety among the \u200demployees and customers. Small businesses, already \u2063grappling with limited resources and the aftermath of the pandemic, are \u200cleft\u200d to fend for themselves\u200c in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/democrat-running-for-senate-haunted-by-racism-scandals\/\" title=\"Democratic Senate candidate haunted by racism scandals.\">increasingly hostile environment<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Business owners like Baggaley are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/republicans-demand-afghanistan-hearing-be-public-the-world-is-now-a-more-dangerous-place\/\" title=\"Republicans Demand Afghanistan Hearing Be Public: \u2018The World Is Now A More Dangerous Place\u2019\">rightfully demanding answers<\/a> from their elected officials. They seek reassurance that their concerns are being heard and meaningful action\u200d will be taken to address the issue. The failure to protect small businesses not only jeopardizes their\u2064 survival but also undermines the very fabric of\u200b our economy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In response to public\u200c outcry, Democratic leaders must prioritize\u2064 public safety and work towards implementing effective measures to deter crime and support business owners. This includes allocating sufficient resources to law enforcement agencies, enhancing community policing initiatives, and implementing proactive strategies to address the root causes of crime.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Moreover, it is crucial for elected officials to engage in open dialogue with small business owners, understanding the unique challenges they face and tailoring policies \u2062and programs to support their needs. By collaborating with the very individuals and groups affected by the rising crime rates, Democrats can rebuild trust and demonstrate their \u200ccommitment to the well-being of their constituents.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The frustration of business owners like Ryan \u2063Baggaley is\u2064 a wake-up call for Democratic\u200b leaders across the \u200bcountry. It is a reminder that actions speak louder than \u2062words, and the neglect of small businesses has real consequences. Failure \u2063to address their concerns not\u200d only risks losing their support but also \u200bthreatens the vitality and success \u200dof our economy \u200das a whole.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The owner of Delta Construction and Electric Co. expressed his disappointment with the Democrats he supported, as a gang of 10 thieves targeted his business.
