Terrified Beverly Hills residents flock to buy guns from city's only firearms store as LA crime soars thanks to woke DA's policies

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]

Beverly Hills Guns has seen upscale residents from Santa Monica to the Hollywood Hills increasingly buying guns amid a rise in crime

Many are self-declared progressives, who've never even held a gun before, but who've been spooked by soaring crime in their ritzy neighborhood

Some have also discussed more elaborate security measures, such as armored cars, safe rooms and bulletproof glass

Hollywood's violent crime rate is up 25 percent over last year, with the homicide rate doubling and shootings up 54.2 percent over last year

The city has been plagued by a rash in slash-and-grab lootings that first began after Black Lives Matter protests ended with a riot on Rodeo Drive

More recently, a man taking out his garbage on Thursday was attacked by four or five suspects and his disabled son was zip-tied as they ransacked his home

Beverly Hills has now hired two private security firms to patrol neighborhoods alongside the police

Residents are also forming their own patrol groups as District Attorney George Gascon faces another recall effort for the rise in crime

#3 Congratulations! You now own a magic talisman that will protect you from crime and evil. There's a catch though - you have to learn how to use it.

It's not hard, but you do have to spend the time and energy learning how to shoot. Worse, you have to develop a martial mindset that will enable you to respond appropriately instead of just melting in a stressful situation. Good luck and try not to shoot yourself!

#6 Seems to me, with a Roomba, a Glock, and some duct tape, you are on your way to Red-Greening yourself a robotic home security system. "Alexa, shoot the intruders"
