I agree. I really do not understand why we can't get more funding for more policing.
I lean left, and will never vote for a conservative, but come on. Do better, liberals.

Reports say the police showed up within a minute of the shooting. And from what I’m reading elsewhere, private security were among those shot.

Thanks Charles Allen for the violence interrupters. Doing a great job at reducing crime!

This issue is MPD leaving or retiring at a far higher rate than they can recruit, not funding at this point. Higher signing bonuses and other incentives have been tried, other area LE are also struggling to recruit and there is a lot of competition in this area.

Hookah bars seem to attract a lot of crime, has also happened on U St. and in downtown SS.

I think Cru is a chain or franchises?

MPDs funding wasn't reduced. I think it may have increased.

The Atlas is hardly a nightclub.

The nightclub was the Cru Hookah Lounge.

It’s the definition of a mass shooting. 4 people were shot

What club? Anybody know?

This kinds of stuff happens and is not indicative of a larger crime wave.

It's four carjackings of grandmas on their way to church on Sunday morning that show the trend.
