Washington, DC is worth saving. Many of the other cities have priceless museums and points of geological or historic interest that should not be destroyed, such as Philadelphia and New York. Giving in to the mob is not a viable option. It’s not even an appropriate compromise. There can be no compromise with anarchy, fascism or tyranny.

This is not about giving into the mob, who are controlled by the same Democrats that run these cities. The Democrats' goal for many years has been to herd people into the bigger cities, which is a really dumb idea. What do you think Agenda 21 is all about? Do you want to live in these cities, which will only get worse? I sure don't. And beyond that, why would we want to contribute any taxpayer dollars to these cesspools? These cities are like the zombies in The Walking Dead - they're dead, they just don't know it yet. NYC, Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Detroit (and others) - all of them are disgraceful, poorly-run formerly American cities. Washington? Maybe that's a special case, but it still has the same problems as the other cities mentioned above.

In the end, this is about bad governance, but bad governance that seemingly can't be replaced because one party dominates, and the other party is too wimpy and docile to make a difference (I personally believe that the GOP is a fake political party, but that's just me). It's time to start thinking outside the box, and outside of these zombie cities. I have no interest in rewarding bad behavior.

It has been 2 years since I left Prince George’s county. In that amount of time Muriel Bowser had made Marion Barry’s years as mayor of DC look like a “Golden Age.”
