Shameful for DC mayor.

The Government is not backing them up either.

This exactly. People are fed up with cops getting told to stand down, and do nothing.

Time to replace them all with federal soldiers.

Who's telling them to stand down? Is this some old cherrypicked narrative from the BLM days that you're stuck on?

Oh, please. The federal takeover is making us less safe.

It’s next to impossible to report a crime as the police are spread so thin. I have had guys working on my house robbed by gun point, had neighborhood guy try to attack me with a pipe, had multiple break ins and a real estate title company steal money from me. I was not able to report any of the physical crimes as officers never showed up when called, even though a gun was discharged in the construction worker robbery. It took me 10 months to get a return call from the Detective in the financial crimes division and he told me now that they know the person that stole the money from me did it to multiple people they were going to pursue arresting her, but he was retiring in 3 weeks and had 2 weeks of vacation he had to use up, so if they didn’t locate her in that week nothing would happen and that the other two detectives in the unit are dealing with 350 calls a day and would likely not have time to pursue it. She stole hundreds of thousands of dollars from people doing real estate closings.

+1.

I am a longtime D.C. resident and I also call BS on this claim that crime is at a 30-year low.

As always with Democrats, don’t believe your lying eyes.

The pigs are lazy AF. You tell them not to beat on some innocent black guy going about his business and then they act like they can’t take a murder report. Most of what these cops were doing wasn’t helping anyone except the prison industrial complex. Real policing and building trust with a community is too hard a job for these guys.

Who creates this nonsense?

Not. One. Single. Homicide. Since. Trump.
And DEMOCRATS are MAD as HELL.

Why?

Huh? DC did not have a single homicide for 16 straight days in March of this year.

If you were a thug, you’d know still kind of cold in March to be shooting off on the streets.

+1. March is Canada Goose down coat season in these parts.

The union is telling them to stand down.

As always with Democrats, don’t believe your lying eyes.

And yet, in April of this year, the former US attorney for DC, Ed Martin, a Trump appointe said that crime statistics in DC were down by 25%. Don’t take my word for it. See the link to the DOJ zone website. What has changed since then? Why the sudden emergency?

“The U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia is marking President Donald J. Trump's first 100 days by highlighting a 25 percent drop year-to-date in violent crime across the District, credited in part to the "Make D.C. Safe Again" initiative and the U.S. Attorney’s partnership with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and Metropolitan Police Department.”

Yes, I stopped moving over for cop cars with flashing lights. Too many.
