[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Demonizing and demoralizing police officers seems to be going extremely well . . .[/quote]

They were crap at solving crime before this.  I've been a victim of minor crime in DC, and the police were completely useless.  Once, in about 2015, I even had the cell phone of the guy who groped me in broad daylight, and I gave it to the cops, and they still couldn't find the guy.  It's not like the cops were doing an outstanding job at solving crime anywhere even before the BLM movement.  In 2017 and 2018, police in the US solved less than half of all violent crimes.  And if they are unwilling or unable to do their jobs unless they are showered with praise and allowed to beat people up with impunity, maybe they aren't such great public servants.  [/quote]

Exactly. And even if you know who the perpetrator is, the DA refuses to prosecute for most crimes.  I was a victim of a hit and run.  A good samaritan acted fast and took the picture of a woman who hit me.  They were able to find her, interview her and everything.  I was told after a few months that it wasn't worth the DA's time to prosecute her.  WTF? I had my kid in the car with me.

I live a block away from the Shell station where the latest murder happened. I can tell you that the neighborhood is not what it was 10 years ago. [/quote]
