Are you kidding? A shooting in Georgetown makes you nervous? It doesn’t matter where you send her to college. She’s at risk everywhere. That’s life. We are playing a game of frogger trying to avoid what can get us everytime we leave the house. I heard someone was driving down east west hwy and a tree fell on car and killed a mom. If she leaves the house 30 seconds later, she lives. You really just never know when it’s your time to go

Shooting someone is a deliberate act, it's not a random act of God. It's rational to decide to avoid the risk of going to a crime-ridden area.

Tell that to the families of all the children who were killed by a stray bullet just walking or playing in their neighborhood.

This needs to be the emphasis on Black Lives Matter going forward - address the deaths of the inner-city youths by other inner-city youths.

Um - you do realize Black Lives Matter is basically a fleecing operation run by grifters on the take, right?

Maybe you can ask for your donation money back?

Way too much money for that to happen. Detroit and Baltimore are "hell". The District is beyond filthy rich.

You're dreaming. Go talk to my friends on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, at Central Park. Lovely neighborhood now basically uninhabitable due to crime, homeless, needles...crazy people. Go talk to my friends in LA.

Did you not watch Jen Psaki yesterday?

She said there is no “crime crisis” in our cities, but only right-wing media outlets whipping up hysteria.

So:

- there was no shooting in Georgetown. It didn’t happen. Stop talking about it. Everything is fine.

Oh, no. Did she honestly say that?

Pshaw. You must be a newcomer. The 80s, baby. Crack cocaine, Murder City USA.

I live in MD and work in DC. After a lifetime of voting D, I’m 100% switching to R. D’s just don’t care about basic quality of life issues for regular people anymore! (I’m middle class, employed with kids - the standard situation)

Does this mean the 1990s are coming back?

I LOVED the 1990s.

District Attorneys who are radicalized “social justice warriors” were elected in each of those cities.

Just a coincidence?

416 people were murdered in DC in 2021.

Lie.

+1 That number includes Fairfax, MoCo, and PG counties. DC was at just under 200 by itself, which is high enough without adding in the burbs.

I mean, fairfax county is like 50% higher population than dc and had 21 total homicides in 2021. Let's not pretend it's a significant contributor to the crime in the area lol

Plus 1. I live in Montgomery county and I’ve heard about 4 murders here in about 20 years. I don’t think we add to that total either.

Just because you didn't hear about it doesn't mean it didn't happen. There were 35 homicides in moco last year: https://bethesdamagazine.com/bethesda-beat/police-fire/montgomery-county-hits-three-decade-high-for-homicides/

I don’t know what PP is talking about 4 murders! But nobody is like “everything is cool” in moco. Ghost guns, etc! Moco has a huge issue. DC has 200 murders, PG 100, Fairfax 20, Alexandria 2… London actually has less crime/murders.

Oddly other crimes have dropped.

OTOH crime was falling for decades until 2020… so is it the pandemic, gun culture … idk but we need to get this sh!t under control.

“Crime was falling for decades until 2020” and they you say “idk?” (“I don’t know?”)

Please!

The cause is obvious: Attorney General Racine is a radicalized “social justice warrior” who will not prosecute criminals because he believes its “racist.”

The city counsel has become radicalized, and passed laws to hobble the police (the ones who haven’t been defunded / retired early / demoralized by blm), because police enforcing laws is “racist.”

The criminals are raping, robbing, stealing, riding dirt bikes and quads all over, but somehow, the criminals are the “victims.”

Guess what - now YOU get to be victimized by criminals running in the streets unchecked.

Read here:

gurl, you sound as unhinged as me blaming this on the NRA..

What part of it is not true?

The blatantly obvious lie that police were defunded. MPD received an additional $5 million to hire more officers. In fact, no LE agency in this country was "defunded"

“No LE agency in this country was defunded?” Really??

I was almost hit head first on a sidewalk by a speeeding dirt bike. I panic everytime I hear the motors roaring.

Once I screamed so loud when dozens of FBI and DEA agents with huge dogs ambushed the subway car I was riding in, I think I scared the dogs and agents. It really was terrifying.


I just missed the shooting on the Columbia heights platform. A journalism student interviewed me.

The woman at the front desk gave me a knife for protection. She said the size is legal in DC. I have to practice. I'm afraid I might accidently stab myself.


In my building, we have the police come in and arrest people occasionally. I always wonder what they did. In one case, they were preparing to break the door down.

Once this 300- 400 lb fat man in a wheelchair with no legs locked his wheelchair so i could not get out of my seat. I am severly disabled just had major surgery (amputations myself) and could not climb over my seat. I started screaming and crying because it was just the two of us and he had no mask and was leaning over his wheelchair trying to touch me and intentionally breathing heavily and coughing on me. I asked him nicely to unlock his wheelchair and move so I could get out and he laughed hysterically. Thank god some skinny kid came in the car and lifted that fat a__ man's wheelchair so i could climb out and run out of the car.
