Are you not capable of reading? You even bolded the text. It says, “it’s where the county politicians and their supporters live”. Who is the County Executive and where does he live?

It seems more ineffective than tough. From the Takoma PD Chief:
"Long-term, we must take a holistic approach to addressing the causes of criminal activity. Until we address these underlying issues, lack of education, food security, jobs, etc., the cycle of crime and violence will continue. The police alone cannot solve the problem. We look forward to the City implementing some of the recommendations made by the Takoma Park Reimaging Public Safety Task Force that help address these issues and continuing to look for ways to address the root causes of criminal behavior."
How is addressing poverty in Takoma Park MD going to do anything to prevent crime from DC juveniles? What is needed are increased legislated sentencing guidelines. Unfortunately, DCPD has a policy of minimal cooperation with surrounding jurisdictions, including Montgomery County and Takoma Park Police Departments.

When the middle class is strong, and the lower class knows they can get a great education and move up in status, hope is present, and drugs and violence decrease.
We need a wealth tax, we need giant corporations with record profits and share buybacks to pay their fair share in taxes (in some cases, they haven't paid ANY taxes), and we need to support those who need help, so they can move up, and out of the lower class

No, this is nonsense. Recently there was a carjacking in Arlington. Arlington PD pursued into DC. Perpetrators crashed vehicle in DC. APD chased them on foot, made arrests. They are sitting in jail.
