Clearly, the municipal government of Washington DC is afraid of its constituents which, in a civil society is a proper state of affairs, much to be favored over the citizens having fear of their own government.
But this is not a civil society, Washington DC is proportionately a murder capital of America and the society is anything but civil. The city fathers are well aware of the level of gun violence in this town but they persist in blaming the guns instead of their own policies. When socialism fails the "reform" invariably invoked is not real reform but more socialism, or in this case, more statism.
So as Washington DC, like Detroit and so many other American cities descends into a dystopia of statist created misery, the government imposes more restrictions on freedom in order to deal with the symptoms of its own mismanagement.
They are terrified and rightly so.
Great accurate comments.
It seems what so many can’t digest is the fact that government could care less about what benefits America or the safety of law abiding America.
In fact, their policies foreign, domestic and punitive laws directed at the law abiding in the U.S. do just the opposite. They threaten not only our entire economy, but our safety and security right here in our own neighborhoods and towns.
And there is an inordinate amount of evidence to support this.
