Weeks ago, I predicted this current upsurge in crime rate. It did not require clairvoyance or such. It was bound to occur as a natural progression.
When people who feed from the hustle of each day, are compelled to stay home without any palliative, the point comes when hunger becomes a bigger threat than any pandemic.
While some would rather beg, others opt to take by force. In any case, if you have something (however little) there is a bullseye monogrammed on you.
What can you do?
✓ Reach out to people in your neighbourhood
What is preached is social distancing, not social disconnecting. Show some care to those who are having it rough around you.
✓ Rally for security
Band together in communal security efforts. Isolation will not pay when it comes to increased security; pool resources and energy.
✓ Recruit miscreants
Where possible, engage the neighbourhood ragamuffins to guard against incursion/external aggression.
In this clime where security agencies appear to be overwhelmed... It is up to you to collaborate (with others) for (your) safety.
Stay secure!
