Lawlessness has consumed many parts of America over the last several years.
“Woke” lawmakers refuse to hold criminals accountable for their crimes and even allow criminals who attack law enforcement officials to walk free with a slap on the wrist.
Now it’s gotten so bad that the National Guard is preparing to take over in this blue city.
San Francisco’s prison system has gotten so out of control that the National Guard may have to step in
The streets of many American cities have become entirely overwhelmed with out-of-control crime, making life miserable for law-abiding Americans.
San Francisco and the entire Bay Area have seen a particularly vicious spike in crime in recent years, with no end in sight.
But if you thought the streets of San Francisco were bad, San Francisco’s prison system resembles something out of a horror film.
Last weekend, things got so bad that the City of San Francisco put two prisons on lockdown after increased attacks on jail staff and deputies.
According to NBC News Bay Area, “The San Francisco County Sheriff’s Office says it has placed two San Francisco jails on lockdown after an increase in attacks on deputies and jail staff by inmates. In the wake of these attacks, the union representing San Francisco’s County Deputy sheriffs demanded assistance Saturday from the California National Guard to solve a critical staffing shortage in the county’s jails.”
Adding, “This weekend, the Sheriff’s Office put both County Jail #2 in downtown San Francisco and County Jail #3 in San Bruno on lockdown, putting all visits, programs, and services at those locations on hold. In a release, the Sheriff’s Office said normal operations at the jails would resume next week, but didn’t specify exactly when.”
Ken Lomba, the president of the San Francisco Deputy Sheriffs’ Association, has since spoken out on the matter, saying that since late March inmates have attacked deputy sheriffs nine separate times.
Lomba then said, “On April 12th it was like the worst day in my history of the department, it just felt like the bottom just fell out of the department, cause of all of the attacks on deputies and the prisoner-on-prisoner fights.”
He then called on the National Guard to take action, adding, “Their presence is crucial to provide immediate relief and enhance the safety and security of our facilities for all personnel and inmates.”
America’s prisons have become cesspits of recidivist career criminals
The horror stories that have emerged from the San Francisco prison system demonstrate just how deplorable many American prisons have become.
Regardless of the policies put in place by Democrat lawmakers, career criminals have taken up residence in these prisons, inflicting terror and depravity on prison guards and law enforcement officials.
However, many fear that opening the door for the National Guard to police prison systems could open the door for people who do not have extensive law enforcement training to step into a mess they are not prepared to deal with.
