If this occupation will not be ongoing, the same can be said for it.


Plenty of arrests say otherwise.


Using number of arrests as a metric incentivizes the police to arrest as many people as possible. Not to address violent crime.


As long as the arrests are for illegal conduct, whether littering, vandalism, reckless driving, carjacking, drug offenses or homicide, it's all good. Broken windows.

This metastudy finds that community based policing reduces crime, while aggressive policing does not.

No murders in DC for 2 weeks!!!!


So you are protesting that you want the crime back in DC like it has been for years?

DC needed the federal help! So many time so have seen on this board about people sick of crime in DC and needing something done.


Good luck protesting for More crime!!!

Not supporting the march.

Stupid.


Crime is down in DC and I feel safer going to work.

Thank you for doing something about crime!

DC govt has done nothing for years.


Go protest somewhere else.

Let me guess,

Most of the protesters will not be DC residents.

You will surrounded by rich white liberals who hate Trump.

You protesting anything he does, period.

Ask around d the protest how many of you are actual DC residents and not suburban warriors.

Shame on you.

Go Trump.

The mayor actually thanked him for his help in reducing carjackings which were at epidemic proportions. Also DC is short 500 police officers and can’t seem to hire enough. What will happen when the feds leave and the department is still short on police?????

Think about it? Crime will skyrocket back to where it was and people will be less safe. But you don’t care as you don’t really live in DC…

Yeah, carjacking were the highest ever last year. So that community policing thing was not working too well?

Are people under 50 and Black people allowed to come, or is this just for old white women again?

Yeah, this protest is a joke.

Will be mostly white suburban residents protesting anything Trump Does.

I bet less than 5% of the protesters will actually be DC residents.

What a bunch of fools these protesters are. Let’s go protest for MORE crime. DC can use any help it’s gets to reduce crime, ANY!!!

Dc is short 500 officers because Trump cut our budget by $1 Billion.

Bowser is an idiot who thinks appeasement works, it never does. As a DC resident I’m livid that we have such weak representation.

Are Trump supporters welcome at this event? Or are we not all DC?

+1. To be more precise, it will be white suburban women who are 60+ and can't find anything else to do on a fall Saturday morning.

But we have "violence interrupters"! Surely that made violent crime decrease?
