When the USA begged the Council to "stop the revolving door" and to send a sign with their appointment to the Sentencing Commission they made it LAW that a criminal MUST be appointed to the Sentencing Commission. Their contempt for the rule of law, for public safety or for the norms of an orderly society, if anything, is accelerating.

Violent daytime crime in the central business district will just accelerate the fiscal spiral. Soon, there will just be idiots too into the Kool aid to act in own interest and those they support directly as crime victims or indirectly through taxes. The dregs of other cities and states will flock here, as criminals in MD and VA head directly into DC.

This was a defining moment for DC Council and instead, they have genuflected to dark money, even mockingly refusing to name those groups. Mendo spoke openly of their influence.

A financial control board is all but inevitable as the CRE revenue goes off a cliff. Shame they did not act to try to hold tourist revenue or middle class residents. Who wants to risk being the next Mike Gill? Or the man driving through Dupont at 4pm who is alive, but paralyzed? Who wants to risk a life altering TBI when beat or pistol whipped despite being a "cooperative" victim? Happened right in front of Kramer books at rush hour? Daytime and people around won't save you or yours. And what will have made it worth it? [/quote]
