Wow, you know your argument is weak when you crow about DC’s murder rate comparing favorably to Cleveland and Baton Rouge. DC is the capital of the United States visited by thousands of tourists each year. It can do better.

Well, proposing to defund the police surely would not have helped. I would suggest to start with enforcing all existing laws including misdemeanors.

Great, let’s cut the MPD budget and see crime fall. Can’t wait to see the results

So happy too. Can't wait to see how well those Defund the Police candidates do in November. Should be a woke landslide.

What’s the relative proportion of crime that police prevent vs. react to, in your opinion?
