[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, though I loathe Trump, I wouldn't be all that upset with a fed takeover if the FreeDC slate wins the mayor's race and the majority of the counsel.  I'd rather see a fed takeover than the policies that crowd is going to try to impose in terms of out of control spending, tax hikes, no understanding of basic business economics and extremely soft-on-crime policies.  It was the control board in the 1990s that produced us Tony Williams, who was the best mayor that DC has had.    The key difference though, is that the Control Board occurred during the Clinton Administration and the appointed Control Board was highly qualified.  I don't have much faith in the ability of the Trump administration to appoint anyone qualified to deal with the District.  We are screwed either way.[/quote]

Agree with everything here, as a 33 yr longtimer resident of DC[/quote]

Agree as a 60 year resident. Her political director is a founder of Harriet's Wildest Dreams, an insane, extreme, racially divisive activist group that calls for the abolition of prisons, policing, capitalism, etc etc...

[i]As prison abolitionists, we are fighting for a world where the response to social problems does not include prisons, policing, prosecution, or any form of surveillance, supervision, or incarceration. These systems of punishment rely on, reinforce, and perpetuate structures of oppression; white supremacy, patriarchy, capitalism, xenophobia, ableism, and heterosexism. We aim to undermine and abolish these systems, not reform them.[/i]

[i]The criminal legal system was never designed with true justice in mind for black people. We believe that there is a difference between crime and harm. Crime is “made up” by people with the power to maintain the status quo.[/i]

[i]Build sustainable alternatives to policing and capitalism through mutual aid.[/i]

Wow.  What a bunch of delusional, deranged horse crap.  So if you get pistolwhipped and carjacked by a bunch of teens that's just "made up?"

JLG and her team can eff right off.  That alone is a complete deal breaker for me.[/quote]
