I think in DC even if they treated the 20,21,22,23,24,25 year olds as adults it would already be an improvement. They don’t consider criminals as adults in DC until they’re 26 years old!!! They’re literally doing everything they can to keep criminals on the streets, and then people wonder why there’s a crime problem.

Try all youth above 16 and 18 as adults for carrying crime severity, more mandatory jail time and death penalty try that for a few years and if that doesn't work try something else. But we've tried the opposite its not working

What’s the fix? Where has it worked?

Why can’t we be more like Nordic countries? They don’t have these problems in Sweden.

Not sure if serious...

Why not? What is so different about the US?

If we got rid of the guns we would be exactly the same as the Netherlands.

You think the people from the rough areas of DC, Baltimore or New York (the ones driving up our national gun crime rates) are “exactly the same as” the people in Sweden and the Netherlands? Are you being sarcastic?

Baltimore and Philadelphia have shown huge improvement just over the past couple of years.

My Aunt was just
Murdered in her house in the Philadelphia suburbs in what was considered a very safe area. She was 89. She had lived in the same brick rancher since 1963. It is so sad she was killed by two gunshots in the home.

Because it’s impossible to get rid of the guns at this point. There are like 100MM guns in circulation. Maybe if we outlaw ammunition or tax it at 10000%…though people would figure out a way to make their own.

Your loss. Those are very rare occurrences and you're missing out on a great city.
