    The funny thing is Democrats often hold up 1980s/90s Joe Biden as the perfect example of what awful things DINO-ism enables.

    Posting all the things Biden said/did that modern Democrats have themselves thoroughly torn apart doesn't 'own the libs' as much as 1) make the left look more honest and sane and 2) make the right look more unhinged and tonedeaf.

    One thing I agree with is that DC crime is totally out of control.

    Hopefully they can get people to stop playing their music out loud on the subway.

    To be fair, not much fazes New Yorkers. They've seen just about everything there is to see.

    Who is trolling? That post was specifically dumb down for stupid woke shiitheads like you. Like I’ve said, good luck in winning another election losers.

    Oh the irony! Pelosi shot down the attempts to use the National Guard leading up to January 6th. Could have prevented the whole incident.... it's almost like the Democrats WANTED to see J6... hmmm...


    GOOD DAY

    That's like blaming Trumps and Epstein's rape victims for not looking older.

    You could say that about lots of cities if you went by per capita.

    True -- it's true of pretty much anywhere where Democrats have held power for decades!

    Those are peace loving Patriots in Trump's eyes. He's a lying hypocrite and power monger. Hell, he instigated that violence with his rhetoric and lies.

    This is a sorry and sad direct effect of being a brainwashed liberal. Your people living in fear in these shiithole chocolate cities for years. The Dems created these cities because they are racists and would not bat an eyelash if you people kill one another. Law abiding black citizens have the same rights as the rest of America to be safe and prosperous. Trump is doing something for your people and instead of being grateful and appreciative of someone in charge that finally cares enough about your people and actually takes actions to make their lives better, you attacked Trump and his supporters. My suggestion for you is just to walk away from that racist destructive party. Google some natural detoxification herbs to get that Dem poison out of your system.

    The insurrection was not real but a made up bullshiit scam from your side. Big Balls was beaten until his big balls turned blue was real and therefore sending in the troops to clean up that DC shiithole is a correct move by Trump.

    This is all a ruse to get protests and violence so that he can distract from his failings and so he can grab more power. He has already tried this several times before. The Democrats under value how much freedom many Americans will give up for perceived safety and order, but this goes beyond that. Short of cities burning down, these antics are starting to wear thin.

    There were 250 homicides in DC in 1982.

    DC is on pace for 135 homicides in 2025.

    So it is really like comparing apples and oranges.

    DC is a lot safer than it was over 40 years ago - then again, America is a lot safer than it was in the early 1980's.

    Bogota still has serious crime issues - street crimes, armed robberies, break ins all are very common. The police are worthless too. It isn't a hell hole like some claim, and overall I have enjoyed my travels there - but it isn't like Europe or North America.

    You are either you are bat sh*t crazy, completely brainwashed, too damn lazy to read actual reports from that day, just spewing lies out of loyalty to Trump, or a combination of all of those, but your version of Jan 6th is ridiculously false.

    About 140 officers were injured, including Officer Brian Sicknick, who died the following day. Four officers who responded that day have since died by suicide.

    U.S. Capitol Police Officer Caroline Edwards was knocked out in an early conflict. After regaining consciousness, she returned to serve on the skirmish line alongside Officer Sicknick, whom she saw turning pale after being pepper sprayed.

    U.S. Capitol Police Captain Carneysha Mendoza described officers “receiving a lot of gas exposure” and “being knocked to the ground and hit with various objects that were thrown by rioters.” She said, “Of the multitude of events I’ve worked in my nearly 19-year career on the department, this was by far the worst of the worst.”

    And Washington, D.C., Metropolitan Police Officer Daniel Hodges was attacked as he and his unit approached the Capitol on foot. He recovered to help defend the Capitol, where he said one rioter “latched onto my face and got his thumb in my right eye, attempting to gouge it out” then another “grabbed the front of my gas mask and used it to beat my head against a door.”

    There are plenty more horrific accounts from victims in this story link below. You can try as you might to BS and lie like the Pathological Liar in Chief, but that doesn't change the facts.

    I feel overall crime is trending down but what is rising in DC among other cities is organized retail theft, a big part of dealing with this is to hold 15-19 YOs more accountable than what is being done now ...literally someone shot someone in the chest with an illegal weapon and ONLY got probation- but yes, homicides are down after looking into the numbers, which is a good thing but more can be done.
