Few cities in this country are softer on crime than DC. And what has it gotten us?
"The nation’s capital recorded more homicides in 2023 than in any year since 1997, giving the District the fifth-highest murder rate among the nation’s biggest cities....
With a rate of 40 homicides per 100,000 residents, the District was deadlier than 55 of the country’s 60 most populous cities, behind only New Orleans, Cleveland, Baltimore and Memphis. While homicides surged in Washington, they decreased in many other metropolises, including New York and Chicago."

I find this point of view bewildering. "If someone commits a horrific crime that the rest of us can't imagine committing, then they have a value alternative perspective on life and we should have them in our government." What next, should we get some January 6'ers to be part of our government since most people in D.C. can't imagine assaulting The Capitol for Trump?
We're not asking this person to legislate. They are providing a different POV on sentencing because they have the perspective of someone who grew up in a different community than most people on this site, and then went through an experience that I doubt 1% of users could understand.
We also need more rapists, child molesters and can we at least find ONE serial killer too?

But no white murderers, right? Or Hispanic? Or Asian? No one middle class, too, right? Or rich? No women, I'm guessing. It sounds like you have a very specific POV in mind.
