2021 YTD
Homicides +10%
Car Theft +18%

2020
Homicides +19%
Car Theft +50%



And yet the policies that led to these increases won’t change. And anyone who argues that they should will be deemed a racist.

Nah. Actual racism is expecting POC to commit crimes because “that’s just who they are


And that’s you.



Because crying racist at actual inhabitants of the city because of their alarm at the massive increase in crime is helpful. Read the Atlantic piece about tough on crime policing. Crime plummeted and murders went down. Or you feel good about yourself, continue to lash out unproductively in this thread and ignore the reality.

Hyperbolic nonsense. All normal people want is criminals to face justice, no matter their skin color. If we become lenient, crime increases.

We tried that already and it didn’t work.


Paying these people to not commit crimes, lol


It did work. Read the Atlantic article about it.

Homicide should be coming down once we recover from the Trump hang over. The marginalized are already feeling far more empowered and those crimes are falling. Give the present administration six months.


What? Yeah, I’m sure in this climate of “defund the police” and equity and restorative justice and Charles Allen, woke city council bullsht, we’ll see a decrease in crime.

Statehood will be the biggest step forward since Home Rule, and will have many positive effects on other aspects of District life.


Where on your body did you decide to put your DC flag tattoo? Am trying to decide between my wrist 🆚 my upper arm. Thanks

Wrong. They did work. Check the crime stats between when it was being implemented and the change since they have decided to be lenient.


Policing needs to be fair, unbiased, respectful ... but strict.

What it really needs to be is effective. Harassing people on the street is easy, which is why police do it, but it is not effective. Investigating and solving crimes is effective, but it is hard so police do not do it.

People in high crime areas want more policing because they also want to be safe, but they want effective policing.
