[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many of these murders committed by mentally disturbed individuals will it take for us to make some changes as a city? To actually elect people who have some different views?[/quote]

Holy shit, when will you realize that the DC City Council has no oversight of adult criminals or the Bureau of Prisons? Neither the Mayor nor the Council nor the AG had any part in whether this guy was released, how and when he was released, etc.

[b]In fact, the city very likely had NO IDEA this guy was out on the street.[/b] [/quote]

And isn't that a problem? [b]This doesn't happen in other parts of the country.[/b][/quote]

BECAUSE THEY ARE STATES AND CONTROL THEIR OWN COURT AND PRISON SYSTEMS.

I guess we can now rely on you for DC statehood?[/quote]

That is just not true, it does happen in many cities. If your frame of reference is the 90s, things have changed quite a bit.

Policies like Equity in Action and changes in philosophy toward crime and in the types of prosecutors that are backed in running for office have shifted things in this direction in many places. See LA, SF, Minneapolis, Chicago, etc, etc. [/quote]
