[quote=Anonymous]Ive also been here 21 years. As a single 20 something and now married with kids. The crime has gotten terrible, even as our neighbors and surroundings have gotten richer and fancier. It is hard not to escape the defund movement as a turning point, along with covid and schools closing. (The latter I could see the damage to a whole generation as it was happening, particularly poor kids, and took a small stand to keep schools open only to be called a racist, but I digress.) It seems like the prosecutors are finally and slowly starting to do their jobs, but it boggles me that people in DC still claim there’s been no jump in crime. (I work at a progressive org where this is dogma). We the party of look at the evidence, data driven decisions— all that goes out the window. Extreme left may not be as bad as extreme right, but it sure is trying hard to be. [/quote]
