Your exclamation points don't change the fact that the variation in shoplifting statistics is basically a rounding error. |

No. I’m serious. DC doesn’t have a problem with crime. It’s all Fox News mouth breathers. Even with car jackings up 900%, murders at their highest since the 90’s and videos of people using their arms to slide entire shelves of goods into trash bags and walk out of the CVS in Capitol Hill and Columbia Heights, nothing is happening. Progressive criminal justice has been shown to work. You are right and anyone who thinks differently is crazy. |

Lately, Drug Stores are closing because shoplifters steal everything but the Father's Day cards.[/quote] You were duped by the shoplifter non-stories. Hilarious. [/quote] Ha ha totally! And there’s no crime in DC! It was worse in the 80’s! Car jacking is not happening. Do not believe your eyes and ears ha ha.[/quote] Your exclamation points don't change the fact that the variation in shoplifting statistics is basically a rounding error. [/quote] I know we are all unwoke, alarmist idiots, but this was an interesting read. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/11/18/shoplifting-problem-dc-reduce-cvs/ “ theft in general is up 22 percent over last year. It is harder and harder to find a grocery or pharmacy in the District that doesn’t lock up laundry detergent, toilet paper and deodorant. A Giant in Southeast no longer even stocks certain name-brand health and beauty products that thieves target. A liquor store downtown is closing because of constant shoplifting. The H Street Walmart shuttered earlier this year. (The company said the store “hasn’t performed as well as we hoped.”) The District ranks behind all but one state for retail theft, according to a new Forbes Advisor survey of small businesses.” |

| Even one crime is very scary. You all are very brave for going outside. Even if you do need an AR-15 to go to the Trader Joes. |

Because men have woken up and realize marriage is a lost cause. Divorce rates are high, women initiate 70-90% of divorces depending on education level. You can blame men all you want for this but same-sex male couples divorce at a significantly lower rate than female same-sex couples. So even when women are married to women they can’t stay married.
The fact the marriage rates are falling and the fact men have pulled themselves out of the dating pool shows that modern dating and relationships are dead. Studies show by 2030 more than half of women will be childless and single. As far as men go, they have pulled themselves out of the dating market but have also pulled themselves out of the labor market and the education system as well. Men aren’t going to school or working. There isn’t incentive for them to do that either. High tax rates, constant criticism and no family to look after has pulled their motivation away. We’re in a society where 95% of workplace deaths are men and men work the crap jobs no one wants - yet the same society constantly tells them they’re not good enough. There are all these fights for equal representation in the “boardroom” or the “office leadership” but no one is clamoring for equal rights when it comes to sewerage treatment workers or HVAC workers or truck drivers. The best most men can hope for is they buy a place on their own and find happiness with their dog and friends. Those who have been through the family court system know first hand the end result of marriage is most likely huge financial and emotional costs. Younger men see their older co-workers go through this and it rightly deters them from engaging in marriage. Those who are smart save up and once they build up enough wealth the retire to the beach in S. America or like Belize or Costa Rica. |
