This is an alarming sign because most citizens understand that a crime against a postal worker is a federal crime. This means criminals are becoming emboldened and are showing less fear to the law and order.
That's because we don't practice the death penalty as often. Image the death penalty enforced and televise every execution, I believe crimes will be reduced by 80% in America.
Unfortunately, it doesn't matter what punishment to apply when they are not caught, especially when they are willing to open fire on an unarmed carrier. I am sure it is being debated in the federal level, either arm the carrier with non-lethal device, a gun, or body cam. I am sure several states already know their answer.
Years ago, I worked for the USPS (enjoyed the work) & was once told by a supervisor if someone attempts to rob you, "Just faint. Let them have the mail. Not worth your life." It never happened to me, but a colleague was pistol whipped in a public parking lot while having lunch & they stole his mail. Postal Inspectors (police) were on it & caught the thief.
@@MrMadbrowncow how so? Thought y'all said the feds were/ are "corrupt" 🙄 and why aren't you whining about a group you think controls everything. Your other comments are proof of my accusations.
WOKE feds. Baby Mamas. Progressive city leaders. Since 2020 Riot for Criminals, the crime wave continues to grow. And they keep voting for the same leaders in these cities. Chicago going the path of Detroit.
Messing with the USPS is a federal crime. When these criminals are caught, they will face federal charges. Doing this to a postal worker is absolutely shameful!
Robbing or assaulting a postal employee on their route should be a federal crime. Remember the good old days when the mail man’s worst fear was the dog down the street?
What do you expect when the only charges for a 14 & 17 year old is trespass of a vehicle, after stealing a car, high speed running a red light, T-boning a pickup truck & killing a 6 month old baby. Criminals are on our streets because they are not prosecuted properly.
There needs to be an added tracking device incorporated in these keys. When someone is caught with one, they need to face long hard sentences. It's very discouraging to see so many young men taking up a life of crime. Not sure if they have given up due to below living wages, lack of good opportunities, drug addiction or something else. I wonder if their was an increase in crime after the last pandemic or if other countries are seeing the same behavior as we are after this pandemic.
It's mostly US. The everyday news there is extreme. It's like not a First World country. From everyday shootings to murderers going free because of bail. Plus all the minors towards adults. It's like watching modern Wild West there.
no other countries - at least here in Europe - are doing just fine. controversial topic for you guys, but don’t underestimate the fact that we don’t have easy access to guns - only with special licenses through hunting or in special shooting clubs - either way there are expansive background checks being conducted before granting a license and there needs to be proof that the guns are locked away at home. one might say criminals always find their ways to illegal guns, but the statistics still proof that we’re light years away from US mass shootings, gunned robbery etc…
Punishment is not a deterent to crime. It has never been shown to reduce crimes. In fact in states with the Death Penalty crime rates are higher. Poverty drives crime. The solution is poverty reduction. That is an evidence based solution for crime reduction.
this raises alarm bells. My brother is the postmaster of Diamondville Wyoming and he answers to the main postmaster in Kemmerer. Postal robbery leads to check washing, check washing leads to identity theft, and Identity Theft leads to Ponzi, extortion, and in some cases murder this is why we need more protections for postal clerks.
Armed robbery should warrant at least twenty years in prison or capital punishment if the victims get hurt and if it is clearly captured by a camera, because the perpetrators threaten to take the victims' lives. It's infuriating to see these atrocities in the most powerful country in the world. The barbaric extremities will never stop until the authorities start thinning out the violent herd

DeJoy has served as a major donor and fundraiser for a number of high-profile Republican Party politicians. In fact, he donated $1.2 million each to tRump's 2020 campaign and to the Republican Party since 2016. Upon assuming office in June 2020, he instituted a 10-year plan for the USPS that eliminated overtime, banned late or additional trips to deliver mail, decommissioned hundreds of high-speed mail-sorting machines, and removed some mail collection boxes from streets. The changes caused significant delays for mail delivery and resulted in investigations by congressional committees and the USPS inspector general. The changes took place during the COVID-19 pandemic and in the lead-up to the 2020 presidential election, raising fears that the changes would interfere with voters who used mail-in voting to cast their ballots.

Easy issue all mail carriers with a M9 Berretta and give them 2 weeks of firearms training. Then make it legal for a mail carrier to use deadly force on armed robbery. Once word gets out that the mailman is strapped and trained no one will attack them anymore.
What about all the post office workers stealing mail? For the past year every card I’ve had delivered to my mailbox has been stolen unless it required a signature.
That’s a very generalized statement. Most postal workers are not criminals and do their jobs with dedication and honor. Don’t loop all of us in one basket.
@@darrylmccants7280 I agree 100% it's a tough job worked as clerk when I was younger for a year. The volume of mail was crazy that they expected me to do. Had to get up at 4am and work my butt off. It sucked honestly. And the carriers had it worse. Driving in a lot of snow, rain, sleet, much respect to the postal workers. People only see bad stories in the news and then assume everyone is bad because that's all they have seen or know. So many people are brainwashed by the media and don't even realize it. Some think 100% of police are bad, postal workers are bad, and all this stuff. It's just crazy. What next, defund the postal service? Lol
i heard a podcast where the head of US Postal Police Division said the US Post Office management wants to replace the Police force and just low wage security guards instead. The local police departments where these mail thefts are occuring do not have the same power/resources to investigate crimes targeting Federal Postal employees, Postal trucks/post offices and mail boxes. So given the position of US Post Office Management, I think these crimes will get a lot worse. If you still have to write bank checks (in some cases I have no choice to mail checks). Make sure to use a Uniball 207 pen to write out checks (it is one of the few pens where the ink cannot be washed off, that is why a lot of these thieves are targeting the mail workers, is to get checks, as well as Credit Cards/Bank cards that haven't been activated yet.

Of Different ages and racial backgrounds (because that what was shown here) In Boston the criminal was White, In Chicago they were Black, in Northern California they were White, and they were all of different ages. So are you really concerned about putting the focus on the actual criminals, or whom you perceive as such. The only thing that seems (because I have not looked at all the data or the cases) to be in common is that they are all American Men
If you look at the #s its actually not that dangerous. There are 330 million people in America, and there will always be some bad apples. But I guess if you live in a bad area you're more likley. Then cars are also dangerous and all kinds of things. Don't live in fear. Don't let fear control you.

During my postal supervisor training we were told about the Chicago way of mail delivery! One arrow key and you can get into any mail box, they can’t be duplicated Unless your a crook! Get rid of postmaster General things will be much better! Carriers/clerks do not deserve risking their lives!
The first postal worker who has to use deadly force better be hailed a hero in the news. That's all I'm saying. Bring some attention to that situation and the next crook will think twice

After watching so many videos of criminal activity, I think there are more criminals than honest people in this world now. That is not a good sign of how society will be like in the future.
America has gone soft on criminals. Criminals are put in handcuffs and they start cussing and spitting at people near them. That sort of behavior must be stopped by any means possible. Put a sack over their heads or tape their mouths.

A large revamp in the way we view/prosecute crime is needed. Don't want to hear 'thank the left or it's the right'...EVERYONE who is living the right way and attempting to teach their children to do the same is a friend of mine and that's most folks...then you have folks who for one reason or another just see life in a different light. Well, it's been time to tighten up, call it what you want but if you have a 10, 12 year old or teenager out robbing people with a gun, you f'd up as a parent something fierce...then there's folks in this World that would say that's not a true statement; if we as a people can't agree on a basic tenant such as that, we're just a bunch of strangers living with vastly different ideologies...and a lot of guns, not a great mix.
They are mostly after outgoing checks to wash because the banks have made cashing checks with a phone too easy. Only use the right permanent ink pen to fill out checks...never use ballpoints.
Just get rid of checks alltogether. It is an invitation to crime and all kinds of issues. People getting accused of fraud, It takes to much work to cash them in too.
I was at taco bell and saw postman get his food and on the way out saw his pant leg move and a gun fell out of his ankle I said you don't like dogs I guess as he picked it up he said no you never know and went back to work

We don’t tolerate it in white neighborhoods. Eventually mail carriers will refuse to deliver mail to black communities, and just like food deserts, they will have to drive to get what they need.

WV is one big rural ghetto and yet they don’t rob postal workers or gun each other down in the streets. It’s not “youth”, it’s “black youth”. The 12% is the reason we can’t have nice things.
This is not only crime but dumb crimes. Who would rob someone for unknown mail? Most of the neighborhoods look working Middle class. The only thing they are receiving are bills & past due bills. There should be harsher sentencing for robbing a postal worker.
The agency is not doing enough to protect the carriers, in my view. Wherever a crime incident occurs, remove mail service from that area. Times have changed and the traditional carrier service has become unsafe in crime infested areas.
So a whole area shouldn’t get their mail delivered because someone robbed a postal worker? Why don’t we remove mail from the entire state? Dumbest thing I have heard today. Congrats.

Its not a secret. USPS is full of Blacks and Asians who help their family members commit identity theft. They dont need to steal the keys, their family members are postal carriers
Postal workers need to arm themselves. More severe punishments for thieves. Threaten to break their hands irreparably AND actually follow through with it
Bring NO-NONSENSE federal mandatory minimums in federal prison and the smug, arrogant local thugs will find themselves locked up with no city, county, or state gang buddies to hand out with. Or, are REAL prison sentences racist?

since you have to go through a test to work for postal office they might as well put in an extra test to train or test office workers on carrying firearms and update the postal vans to armored in the worst areas and have a 2nd person in the vehicle to support assist or look out for each delivery

When criminals are armed with guns........ and Citizens are disarmed...... WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?
I guess these people don't want any services. Make them get their mail from the post office.
That is so sad that the postal workers can't even deliver the mail without fearing for their lives 😮
What about all the post office workers stealing mail? For the past year every card I’ve had delivered to my mailbox has been stolen unless it required a signature.
No business is perfect. Always some bad apples everywhere. No way around that.
That’s a very generalized statement. Most postal workers are not criminals and do their jobs with dedication and honor. Don’t loop all of us in one basket.
@@darrylmccants7280 I agree 100% it's a tough job worked as clerk when I was younger for a year. The volume of mail was crazy that they expected me to do. Had to get up at 4am and work my butt off. It sucked honestly. And the carriers had it worse. Driving in a lot of snow, rain, sleet, much respect to the postal workers. People only see bad stories in the news and then assume everyone is bad because that's all they have seen or know. So many people are brainwashed by the media and don't even realize it. Some think 100% of police are bad, postal workers are bad, and all this stuff. It's just crazy. What next, defund the postal service? Lol
i heard a podcast where the head of US Postal Police Division said the US Post Office management wants to replace the Police force and just low wage security guards instead. The local police departments where these mail thefts are occuring do not have the same power/resources to investigate crimes targeting Federal Postal employees, Postal trucks/post offices and mail boxes. So given the position of US Post Office Management, I think these crimes will get a lot worse. If you still have to write bank checks (in some cases I have no choice to mail checks). Make sure to use a Uniball 207 pen to write out checks (it is one of the few pens where the ink cannot be washed off, that is why a lot of these thieves are targeting the mail workers, is to get checks, as well as Credit Cards/Bank cards that haven't been activated yet.
Louis DeJoy is serving as the 75th U.S. postmaster general. He was appointed in May 2020 during the tRump administration. DeJoy has served as a major donor and fundraiser for a number of high-profile Republican Party politicians. In fact, he donated $1.2 million each to tRump's 2020 campaign and to the Republican Party since 2016. Upon assuming office in June 2020, he instituted a 10-year plan for the USPS that eliminated overtime, banned late or additional trips to deliver mail, decommissioned hundreds of high-speed mail-sorting machines, and removed some mail collection boxes from streets. The changes caused significant delays for mail delivery and resulted in investigations by congressional committees and the USPS inspector general. The changes took place during the COVID-19 pandemic and in the lead-up to the 2020 presidential election, raising fears that the changes would interfere with voters who used mail-in voting to cast their ballots. He needs to be removed from this position.
@@Cos286 I wondered if they had that wrecking machine still aboard.
@@Cos286 DeJoy owns significant interest in companies that compete with the USPS, so it's in his financial interest for the USPS to run poorly. Talk about the swamp..
My uncle works as a rural mail carrier in Colorado and was recently robbed at gunpoint in a pretty remote area just west of the town I live in.. he didn’t even see it coming either.. luckily he was able to escape with his life and is doing ok today
I hope he quit the post office job to be with his family now family comes first not the post office
They should be able carry and defend themselves
And you wonder why ups stopped delivering to a appartment in a America
Harsher sentencing needs to happen to those who get caught, so others won't even attempt.
That's why no one attempts to even steal in certain countries because the sentences are so extreme for even mild crimes.
Back then, postal workers only had to worry about the weather and the occasional aggressive dog, what a 💩 show the USA has become.
The usual suspects? When will we just focus on the criminals?
Of Different ages and racial backgrounds (because that what was shown here) In Boston the criminal was White, In Chicago they were Black, in Northern California they were White, and they were all of different ages. So are you really concerned about putting the focus on the actual criminals, or whom you perceive as such. The only thing that seems (because I have not looked at all the data or the cases) to be in common is that they are all American Men
Always
This incredible man but everybody know who it is the same perpetrator but you can't say nothing because these are award-winning special people
I was told by USPS instructor that "Don't be afraid, they are committing a federal offense." 😯
Robber got a bag full of bills.
Why isn’t this being prosecuted as a federal crime?
Depends on the state. It is a misdemeanor in Cali
@@j.a.3138 it’s a federal crime, what CA does is irrelevant.
It is a federal crime in all states.
Do they actually catch them? If not, the punishment doesn’t much matter.
@@kevinc8955 I guess it is time to train and arm mail carriers and pair them up in places like Chicago.
Its a mistake to reveal what they're after (master key). Feels like a recruitment tool for young fools.
LOL. These Thieves are true heroes.
How kind of you wanting to pay my hydro/water/gas bills!
I was having this discussion the other day and I says this.
"Maybe I'm lucky and they steal a few of my burdens"
It's for teachers, we love our jobs and students but it's becoming to dangerous.
If you look at the #s its actually not that dangerous.
There are 330 million people in America, and there will always be some bad apples. But I guess if you live in a bad area you're more likley. Then cars are also dangerous and all kinds of things. Don't live in fear. Don't let fear control you.
Another problem thanks to a certain demographic that is allowed to do whatever they want.
This should be 30yrs to life no excuses
These criminals don't care about the laws. Why is this so hard for some people to understand? And yes this is already a federal crime.
That's too harsh. Maybe 30 mins and a lemonade
has the entire world going insane
Only rampant in the Wild West. It rarely happens in other developed world
@@containedhurricane so you're claiming crime doesn't happen in other places? Or just this specific type of crime? Because there was a gold robbery during shipping the other day... and it wasn't in America 🙄🤷

@Darren Nope
Going? It's been. We've had 2 world wars.
Dont live in fear because you watch all the bad stuff the news shows you. It's bad for many people mental health.
What on earth could you possible get from a mail carrier anyway?
During my postal supervisor training we were told about the Chicago way of mail delivery! One arrow key and you can get into any mail box, they can’t be duplicated Unless your a crook!
Get rid of postmaster General things will be much better! Carriers/clerks do not deserve risking their lives!
Postmaster? Looked like a bunch of blacks.
Still a federal crime? Enforce the law, simple.
The first postal worker who has to use deadly force better be hailed a hero in the news. That's all I'm saying. Bring some attention to that situation and the next crook will think twice
It's not a postal workers job to defend packages with their lives. Thieves mostly know this and are not there to hurt postal workers because they are thieves not killers. They will be caught eventually
@@randominternetuser2888 anyone who has been mugged knows they don't come run up and just snatch your stuff. These people hold you at gun point half the time bro, so I'm glad you don't understand where I'm coming from. Until then, you do you, and imma keep doing me, thanks!
@@randominternetuser2888 you'll also notice my comment says "the first postal worker who has to use deadly force". What part about someone HAVING to defend themselves don't you get? I didn't say a postal worker needed to guard your package with their life. Get outta here with putting words in my mouth. You kids these days need a wake up call!
Yeah, sure, Christina 😂 How many home invaders get shot to death every week? And is any home invader thinking twice? No.
@@worldinperson how ignorant can you be? There is a shooting almost every day. Talk down your nose somewhere else
After watching so many videos of criminal activity, I think there are more criminals than honest people in this world now. That is not a good sign of how society will be like in the future.
America has gone soft on criminals. Criminals are put in handcuffs and they start cussing and spitting at people near them. That sort of behavior must be stopped by any means possible. Put a sack over their heads or tape their mouths.
You're being brainwashed. Statsticly you should not be thinking this way. Don't live your life in fear.
It's time to bear arms. enough is enough.
There are pros and cons when it comes down to owning a gun. But in this case, the postal service employees should carry a gun for self defense
This would cost billions.
Just increase patrols and ridealongs.
@@paxundpeace9970 There are 400 million guns in this country, more than there are people. CLEARLY, this society has the financial means to issue protection to each and every postal worker.
And it should be an automatic "no bill" if they shoot the robber in the back when he/she turns to flee.
That line of thought will turn the US into anarchy where everyone is packing heat and looking over their shoulder.
Nope just the IRS can have them.... 😂
I’ve always believed that postal workers should have the option to carry but also be given training as well
Democrats did this 🤡🤡
Republicans armed the thugs.
I hate them
This is why you ALWAYS NEED TO CARRY!
There used to be an unwritten law in the hood about messing with the post office because they brought them checks but now everything is electronically processed so it’s game on
These teenagers today are too wild and will not follow any unwritten rules.
Unbelievable!
A large revamp in the way we view/prosecute crime is needed.
Don't want to hear 'thank the left or it's the right'...EVERYONE who is living the right way and attempting to teach their children to do the same is a friend of mine and that's most folks...then you have folks who for one reason or another just see life in a different light.
Well, it's been time to tighten up, call it what you want but if you have a 10, 12 year old or teenager out robbing people with a gun, you f'd up as a parent something fierce...then there's folks in this World that would say that's not a true statement; if we as a people can't agree on a basic tenant such as that, we're just a bunch of strangers living with vastly different ideologies...and a lot of guns, not a great mix.
I rather be a HOMELESS BUM begging People for MONEY, than be a CRIMINAL Robbing People for MONEY
Lord please have mercy and protect our Mail Carriers. Amen.🙏🏾
And rural letter carriers are facing massive pay cuts. Nice.
They are mostly after outgoing checks to wash because the banks have made cashing checks with a phone too easy. Only use the right permanent ink pen to fill out checks...never use ballpoints.
Just get rid of checks alltogether.
It is an invitation to crime and all kinds of issues.
People getting accused of fraud,
It takes to much work to cash them in too.
They are after any info that can be used to open an account in your name.
There seems to be a common denominator. I'm seeing a pattern in the criminals.
I was at taco bell and saw postman get his food and on the way out saw his pant leg move and a gun fell out of his ankle I said you don't like dogs I guess as he picked it up he said no you never know and went back to work
That is a wise mail man, even if it is against policy to carry, except he almost lost his gun if he didn’t notice
This is so scary. No one is safe. 😢
USPS will do nothing! Mail still has to go out safe or not, it starts with the stations manager, better yet the post master general. "We can always find new carriers" well, goodluck with always having new cca.

maybe withdraw mail services from black areas?
Many African cities require you to pick your mail up at the post office instead of delivering, seeing how blacks behave in the US makes it pretty obvious why they do that over there
Could just let us have mailboxes in front of our homes again instead of forcing cluster boxes. Just saying.
Apartments buddy
Do you really expect them to drop off mails to every single appt unit?
@@j.a.3138 Who said anything about apartments building? I'm talking about single family housing. Apartment building can have packages dropped off at offices.
All these examples have something in common ! I can’t put my finger on it. I’m pretty sure my neighborhood mail carrier isn’t in danger. I could say out loud but you aren’t allowed to.
as a society...why are tolerating this? anyone that robs a postal worker should get the same laws throw at them as attacking a federal worker or law officer... max penalty...
We don’t tolerate it in white neighborhoods. Eventually mail carriers will refuse to deliver mail to black communities, and just like food deserts, they will have to drive to get what they need.
seems to be a lot of "we've never seen anything like this before" happening over the past few years.

It's a federal offense. There are strict laws already on this. Criminals don't care about the law. How do so many people not understand this concept? Respectfully
@@dancruze like I said, punishment needs to be more severe, if people got their hands cut off for stealing there would be less stealing.
@@danroose3813 like I said there are strict severe laws on this particular incident already. It's a federal offense. There will be multiple charges here if they are caught.

@@dancruze Simple, if more people were missing their hands for stealing, there would be less stealing going on, penalties are not stiff enough for these idiots to learn, now do you understand ???
Death penalty for killers etc.

This is not only crime but dumb crimes. Who would rob someone for unknown mail? Most of the neighborhoods look working Middle class. The only thing they are receiving are bills & past due bills. There should be harsher sentencing for robbing a postal worker.
Your so right... definitely don't address the issue of why they steal mail 🙄
We all know the REAL problem here but nobody wants to say it
I thought no one was allowed to touch postal personnel. Why are they still getting robbed? Maybe the government needs to go jail instead
We never went through this growing up!! STOP ✋️
Usual suspects as always.
The agency is not doing enough to protect the carriers, in my view. Wherever a crime incident occurs, remove mail service from that area. Times have changed and the traditional carrier service has become unsafe in crime infested areas.
So a whole area shouldn’t get their mail delivered because someone robbed a postal worker? Why don’t we remove mail from the entire state? Dumbest thing I have heard today. Congrats.
