RAYMOND ARROYO: Crime is now a full-scale epidemic across America

Fox News contributor Raymond Arroyo expressed concern for the safety of America’s youth as he outlined the violent crime epidemic throughout the United States on “The Ingraham Angle.”

Pedestrians and innocent citizens are caught up in this maelstrom of lawless violence.

And the murder spree extends to places like Milwaukee, which will end the year by breaking its homicide record for the third year in a row. Or Kansas City, which will have its second-bloodiest year on record.

It’s gotten to the point where I know people who actually hire security to accompany them to the gas station for a refill.
