An interesting title, don’t you think? The term “jugging” refers to a type of crime which is gaining notoriety due to its increased activity. I can’t begin to speculate how the term came to be although someone mentioned that it is a play on the word mugging.
Juggers prey on people who are using ATM’s to get cash or entering banks for the same purpose. They wait until the victims are well away from the cash source and then attack and rob them. As is the case with much criminal activity, juggers seek the most vulnerable individuals; in this case the elderly. The reason for waiting to rob until the victim is at another location is to conceal the fact that the bank/ATM was an integral part of the crime. The police report will likely indicate the location of the report unless the victim mentions the cash withdrawal. Get the picture?
These crimes began in Texas and quickly spread to other states. The FBI is warning people to be aware of their surroundings when accessing cash and to avoid ATM’s located in isolated locations or at closed banks. Example: Pulling into an ATM or bank location and seeing a vehicle backed into a parking place with individuals just sitting inside should set off an alarm. When leaving a location, keep an eye on your rearview mirror to determine if you are possibly being followed.
Actually, it is important to always be aware of what is going on around you. We, as humans, are inclined to preoccupation with personal issues, especially we older folks. We leave the grocery store looking at the ground and stewing about the cost of the items purchased, totally unaware of activity in our vicinity and we become victims.
As you know, Kash Patel is the new director of the FBI. He wrote a book a couple of years ago titled Government Gangsters which I am currently reading and it is a fascinating and revealing work. Of course, at the time of the writing ha had no idea that he would eventually be in a position to deal with the corruption which sickened him. I do believe that most Americans would be stunned to learn the level of corruption in the Swamp.
While I was composing this masterpiece, President Trump fulfilled his promise to crush Iran’s nuclear capability, bombing three nuclear sites there. The operation went off without a hitch and we were gone before they knew we were there. This followed numerous demands from the president to shut down Iran’s nuclear weapons facilities in which refusal was the response each time. Iran had claimed that its enrichment efforts were for peaceful purposes; however, the level of enrichment already in progress far exceeded that which peaceful efforts require and this has been verified although I’m not sure how.
The world’s response to Operation Midnight Hammer was as expected. Our left immediately began chanting “impeachment” while our opponents accused us of starting World War III. Interestingly, many of Iran’s Islamic neighbors were strangely quiet. Lebanon’s Hezbollah is an example.
Most Americans do not realize the fact that there are hundreds of Islamic “sleeper cells” inside our borders and my concern is possible retaliatory attacks from within, both to our food and water supplies as well as civilian casualties.
Things are moving more quickly than I can type. Supposedly, a cease fire agreement between the two warring countries was made; however, I’ve heard rumors that both have violated it. Iran also fired missiles at a large US military base in Qatar; however there were no casualties or injuries reported.
Perhaps the most unsettling event regarding the Iran attack is the reaction of some Republicans to Trump’s decision to bomb Iran. Alleged staunch Trump supporters have criticized the act, among them Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lindsay Graham, Tucker Carlson.
Also, Trump is attending the NATO Summit in the Netherlands. A longstanding issue is funding. Other European members have not been paying their fair share and he has threatened to leave unless they step up.
Finally, have you tired of the Iran rant “Death to America”. I think we should counter that with our own rant “Death from America.
