OP here.

I wrote this post as a resident of SE DC out of lament that crime is skyrocketing in our city, but because of progressive criminal justice reform from the last few years and shrill harpy cries from naive idealists who attend our ANC and city council member meetings or lobby them for lenient policies (for example the youth rehab act, second look act, allowing dangerous speeders with tens of thousands to not lose their license for any reason, or simply allowing shoplifting to happen) we are too kneecapped by political correctness and shaming to actually crack down on crime like El Salvador.

People become indignant and appalled when someone says “lock them up.”

It’s clearly working in El Salvador. I am not saying abandon due process. I am simply saying stop with the permissive bullsht. Implement broken windows policing. Hire more officers. Get an AG that actually prosecutes. Fix the crime lab. Basically, do what it takes. I’m really sorry the statistics of arrests aren’t great. That sucks. You know what else sucks? The city getting boarded up and people smoking crack on the street like they did in 1991. Maybe we should not let the city return to that? Yeah?

I’m sick of these weak willed bleeding heart crime apologists. Fking do something. Look at El Salvador.[/quote]
