You people voted like idiots and gave carte blanche to the party in control. Reap what you've sown.



The city council controls the funding. They are just fulfilling their promise to BLM to “defund the police.”

The spiking murder rate is the obvious and predictable result.

You are simply getting what you marched for, that’s all.

What a bigoted statement. What's your source of information about Baltimore? The Wire?

Also:

DC population (2022): 671,803
Baltimore population (2022): 569,931

Look at the people on trial in D.C. You have to have a rap sheet that's a mile long before the city will prosecute you. Criminals know this.

Who are the killers?
Who are their victims?
Is there a common connection?
Which authorities are responsible?
What residents can do to stop this from happening?

Murders are down by almost a quarter in Philadelphia and Los Angeles. Basically the opposite of what is happening here.


That’s because of the strong Republican leadership in Philly and LA.

Now compare total population number to find the per capita number.


I firmly believe that our political discourse will always be in the gutter until we improve math literacy in this country.
