So many more children were shot in the 90s. Why are you complaining?

Maybe fund things that are known to address this as opposed to bike lanes.
For every dollar that is going into maintaining bike lanes (snow removal?) hire a qualified social worked to support the middle schools.
Dictate that the schools need to use a phonics based curriculum so that everyone learns how to read. Provide real training for teachers - not DCPS created training of 1 teacher per school who is then supposed to teach all the other teachers.
Where is all the money going? Is it aligned with getting to the core of crime? You alienated a cohort of students for a year and a half and the "catch up" that you provided was crap.
Why are you surprised?
No, DC is already spending lavishly on social services, summer programs, violence interrupters, etc.
We need more police. We also need to lock up more violent criminals. It really works, plain and simple.
This.

+1000
People are so gullible and ignorant. Amazon quietly removed blm from their charity program when Bezos realized it was a fraud.
And blm is under fraud investigations in several states now, yet people in dc still keep their virtue signaling lawn signs up. It’s pathetic.

That was 21-22 not this year. Can you not read or is it just that you driven by a political narrative and not facts?
22-23 Burglary went down another 9% on top of the -10% that I mentioned earlier. Assault with a deadly weapon went up a mere 1% after the previous years huge drop of -17%….so in other words maintaining the huge progress from the prior year. Also, the elected officials have been the same for all of those years mentioned.
Burglary is down because the bad guys no longer have break into houses under the cover of darkness. That’s so 1990s. Now they just take your watch, phone, and jacket right off your back in broad daylight on the sidewalk.
Lame deflection. You are an obvious partisan and keep moving the goalposts.

At Bowser's safety event USAO Graves went off about the threat of "unfiltered media" like the blog that highlighted that his office declines to prosecute 67% of arrests. When the WP picked up the story, bit harder to continue the pattern.
With that as a personal priority of the guy who prosecutes adults and Schwab focused on gas stoves, it's clear how we got to this point. Neither values public safety. And the Council's restrictions on police chases, reviewing of bodycam footage before writing reports in cases that are not police misconduct, etc. have all had the intended effect. It's the region, in MoCo they want to prohibit most traffic stops.

Exactly. Roll up on you at the intersection of N. Capitol and Michigan avenue right by children’s hospital on a Sunday morning and take your car, wallet and phone.
