What about juvenile crime which amounts to at least half of all crime committed in the District?

I think the same can be said for almost all metro cities in America. The things DC is going through aren’t unique on the macro level.

Just get off this subreddit, things really aren’t as bad as people make the seem. Practice basic street smarts (e.g., be mindful of your surroundings) and everything is fine.

Yeah definitely agree that one off instances of petty crime shouldn’t lead to severe punishment, but we have kids who’ve committed like 10+ armed carjackings let back free on the streets the same day they get caught. Seems like awfully low hanging fruit to stiffen enforcement.
