I'm for National Guard and Road Blocks. Show your paperwork and proceed.

Our former governor Larry Hogan would have been on it. Miss him already.

We should build a fence at the border.

I can’t believe that this is spreading to The County.

Bethesda is now a ghetto S hole.
Leftists are getting exactly what they want in the DMV and what they voted for.

Whole region is a cesspit.

These are young joy riders (misery spreaders) who don't care who they hurt/run over. They are not doing this to 'start a family'.

Even downtown Bethesda!?

Hah... I've always said that I feel like my best theft protection for my car is the fact that its an actual, really real stick-shift and none of these punks know how to drive one.

Ah yes, if we pay them they’ll stop doing crime. That sounds good. It’s never worked in the history of the world, but let’s try it one more time, shall we?

We need to pay 13 year olds a living wage so they don't commit crimes?

Oh sure. That makes it all ok. Just a couple of kids out having some fun.

That's not what I meant. I meant that kids are doing this more and more because there are few, if any, consequences. It only encourages them.

dont be ridiculous, US' defense budget is almost 1trillion a year and is all spent in the US. money sent to Ukraine is a negligible fraction and, as indicated by the WP today https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/11/29/ukraine-military-aid-american-economy-boost/, most of the money allocated to Ukraine stays in the US. we should cut the defense budget and significantly, and good luck with that. also, none of the people arrested for carjackings show that they do it because they are working low wage jobs and need to support their families. many in DC are done by kids in or barely out of MS that use the cars for joyrides and abandon them right after

Not even close. But if it helps you to feel better by blaming the victims, go for it, big boy.

Not only that I’m sure the Porsche stood out so they could drop from sight and return and find easily.
