Have pity for them. They need the coats more than you do. These poor people don’t have access to any help.

They really should have a program for that!

The Council’s Coddle Criminals Caucus has their Hug a Thug program.

You snark, but they likely do need a hug from traumatized childhoods.

Maybe so, but they also need to be accountable for their violent actions.

Yeah, sure! Blame poors for the acts of lawless.

It's not the wealthy committing armed robbery.

It's not the poor either. These are crimes of opportunity.

Or crimes of malice.

Leftists.

No, lack of common sense among DC politicians.

It's not the victim's fault obviously, and those thugs need to go to jail.

But here's the reality, when you wear or drive expensive cars in an area that is seeing an uptick in carjackings and thefts.. the chances of you becoming a victim increases.

I mean.. an FBI agent got carjacked.

Driving a Chevy Malibu with Gov tags.

That’s a status car?

Do you think hong Kong has this problem

Can confirm, you can wear your Gucci stuff all over Hong Kong with no fear of being robbed.

The idea that “vibrant urban life” means thugs robbing people in broad daylight is an American invention.

I think we should be careful about throwing the word “crime” around before we analyze the full context under which each of these type of activities occur.
Many of these type of events I think we would all agree would fall into a “needs” category (i.e. people need a coat to survive but cannot afford one due to society’s exploitation). This should not be a crime.
What I think needs to be further explored is how many of these events are acts of empowerment - an oppressed individual seeking dignity and self-actualization against their oppressor. Not something I would classify as crime.
In the end I think we’d be left with a tiny fraction that could be considered truly criminal activity.

I think people like you are the problem.

I’m going to assume this is sarcasm.

The criminal could sell his gun for $200 and buy a coat.

But with a gun, he can get as many coats as he needs for his family. Teach a man to fish...

The laws are there to charge crimes with guns more seriously. If only the authorities would.

At some point the federal government needs to step in and remove the DC council as it is becoming a national security issue. I could see disbanding all of the DC council and having Congress and the Senate manage DC with the national guard to clean up the streets.

If you try to steal someone’s coat in Texas you first might have to get past the concealed carry piece in their coat pocket.
