[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So in what ways is the Mayor's seriousness manifesting itself?  What actions has the Mayor taken to address high crime, and why have they failed?[/quote] she opposed the broad relaxation of violent crime penalties pushed by the council.[/quote]

OK, so in this case she did nothing but support a failed status quo.  Anything else of note?  Fill in the blank please "They Mayor has _____ to fight crime in DC"[/quote]
Again you engage in red herring. What do you mean failed status quo? Ten years ago when sentences given and time served for violent crime were much higher and we had many more bad guys in jail where they could not hurt law abiding, [b]we had under HALF the current violent crime rate.[/b] Federal and DC AG have emptied DC prisons and jails, largely to comply with low DC Council set incarceration rate targets. 
So the mayor has done a LOT to fight crime, all while other elected officials are doing their best to enable it.[/quote]
