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 same type of politics reduced crime that’s why.

So I’m not allowed to be upset when there is a shooting in my neighborhood? People do care. What would you like me to do beyond donating and voting? Do I need to personally rescue a child from southeast before I’m allowed to be concerned about this? Please do tell me your parameters!

If anyone is REALLY concerned, you quit voting Democrat.

How simple is that?

Agree. Very few republicans run for DC Govt. We need more. If there isn't an R next to the name I got for the most centrist Independent or Democrat . They can be loons too! If no good options, I write in a name.

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"

It is you who’s telling obviously blatant lies. Your post is comically untrue:

I know right? Just look at those alt-right news sources: NPR, Washington Post, AP. Total fake news, amirite?

The manner in which she dismissed concerns with a laugh shows she does not care.

Well, all those news outlets are completely discredited, so there’s that.

I still love the narrative that's it's all these Virginia guns causing all the crime and yet crime is lowest in the VA suburbs compared to both DC and Maryland. Must be something in the water. No really, don't all your old houses have those lead pipes?

100% of DC crime is directly caused by Donald J. Trump. It’s all his fault. Somehow.

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.

Nope.

Does not fit the narrative.

Well do you generally care more about things that happen where you live or places you go to? I know very little about what is going on in Rhode Island but I suppose those folks have had some shootings too.
