[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you for responding the the DCJL astroturfer. [/quote]

Has anyone else noticed a change in the defund the police/anti-incarceration folk recently? A few years back they were really pushing the need to get rid of the police and let violent murderers out of prison, promising it'd make us safer. They had to back off that, but a year ago they were still pushing the line that there was no crime problem in D.C., it was exaggerated, or it was happening all over the country.

Now that it's clearly an issue and D.C. is clearly an outlier, they go into these threads and pretend soft on crime politicians like Frumin and JLG are actually touch on crime, or pretend the revised criminal code that the DCJL helped write was actually tough on crime. Then after a few posts they go back to their anti-incarceration spiel and accuse anyone who's worried about crime of being "an overly sensitive snowflake."

I have to take the fact that they're now trying to deceive people and trying to paint anti-incarceration politicians and polices as tough on crime policies means that they know their actual positions are now extremely unpopular with the citizens of D.C.[/quote]

The only change I've noticed is fewer pearl clutcher comments, thankfully as that was intellectually feeble. I don't disagree with your analysis--these types are very tricky and constantly assume new stances. Thank you for this interesting post.[/quote]
