DC is LBJs Great Society on steroids. When you have now 3 plus generations of people raised on welfare checks, no one in the family who ever had a real job, no examples of individuals bettering themselves, no fathers to discipline children, no mothers to mentor their daughters on how to handle men… well DC is what you get.
People call it uncivilized… they are wrong. In an uncivilized society, this behavior would not be tolerated. This is pure Welfare State behavior where the depravity and disfunction is paid for by the US taxpayer with the leftist scum is scamming large amounts of cash off the top.
It is not about race. It is totally about leftism and it’s completely cynical money games. Totally!

How much ghetto is actually in DC? It’s really sad when you think about it. It should be the safest cleanest city in the world.
To: DIRTYSECRET
It’s blacks mostly. It won't get solved until it's OK to acknowledge that and it isn't considered "racist" to punish the perps.

Get rid of SNAP benefits.
We have food banks. That should be sufficient.

I remember that “ Government Cheese” from the 1950s. We were eligible, but my dad would not allow it. The Churches handed it out then and the woman next door used to get it. She would give some to my mother and it made great grilled cheese. My dad never knew. But I learned so much from him that I am eternally grateful for.

Rather than teaching pronouns, sex positions and fake stupid ‘history’ maybe is time to teach ‘right and wrong’... Cause these little thugs are obviously NOT being taught anything but stupid crap at home.

The same could be said about virtually every large city…all of which are run by Dems who do little but pass out the goodies and collect votes (and that’s all, if we’re lucky).

DC has some of the worst housing projects. Where everyone’s on welfare and everyone’s into crime or some other vice. The best thing to do would be to bulldoze the projects and move those people out of DC. Where they’d go is another problem, but it needs to be solved or at least half of DC is doomed to remain a sewer.
