This is the thing. It’s not even that D.C. is some bastion of Libertarianism that just wants to let everyone do whatever they want. It’s that they only want to enforce laws that tie into extremist activists ideology.

Hundreds of people killed this year? No big deal. 10 dogs killed? Look at how much attention the Council or the DC sub gave that. Rampant violent assaults and threats? You’re a fear mongerer. Parking in the bike line? Hey, now there’s a big issue.

The Council didn’t get upset about the child that was killed by a stray bullet driving home on mother’s day, or the dangerous criminal who was released against a judges wishes and murdered an innocent woman this year. Or the guy who tried to murder a pub owner in front of his son, and only got 8 months. But the resident who found himself in a confrontation with a group of car thieves outside his house at 4 am and ended up shooting one? That angered the Council, and got them to demand justice.

Nadeau’s bill to decriminalize street vendors who are hawking the stolen good from CVS passed the Council 12-0. Yet legitimate businesses have to spend years waiting for their permits to get approved.

There was a case recently where a guy had his car stolen and the thieves racked up tickets. D.C. said he waited too long to contest the tickets, so he had to pay $700. The car thieves were released without any conviction.

The city thinks it needs to make it extremely hard for law abiding citizens to purchase a gun. Yet at the same time, criminals with illegal guns are routinely let free. There was a case recently where police found an illegal gun on a guy, the judge threw out the charges for idiotic reasons (the police asked if he was armed before approaching, which the judge said police can’t do), and he murdered someone a few days later. Brooke Pinto tried to get the city to be tougher on illegal guns, but the rest of the Council was against it. They want to make things as difficult as can be for legal gun owners, and let illegal gun owners roam free.

The low prosecution rates? The D.C. Council actually took issue with that several years back, even Charles Allen said it was terrible. Oh, but they only cared about the low prosecution rates for hate crimes. They even made sure that the hearing about it specifically said it was only about hate crime prosecution rates. Assault, murder? Who cares.

Over and over again. It would be bad enough if D.C. was just a lawless wasteland. But what the Council seems to want is for the law to come down hard against anyone outside of the extremist activist culture, while doing everything it can to protect violent criminals.

Is there a lawsuit here (see bolded) ? ^ Our car was stolen and the way we were treated by DC was awful, but this is insane. Thank you for your detailed post.

Uhhh that ship has sailed. Voters in Nova already vote the same way...

Maybe Alexandria but not Fairfax or Loudoun. Lighter shade of blue craziness than DC

Certainly Arlington and Alexandria. I wouldn’t be surprised if it spreads further. Voters never learn.

Serves y’all right.

Everyone:

PP is making a joke out of a violent assault on 2 daycare teachers who were beaten and bloodied in front of their toddler daycare class by a DC criminal who tried to rob the teachers:

Bowser is not taking this seriously.

Really, I take it as sarcasm that points out that the DC Government doesn't care and that every man, woman and child is on their own to find ways to protect themselves in DC.

Petit Scholars is a private daycare program. It should be closed since it creates division in the community. Why are only some children worthy of safety?
