It’s time for America to reclaim its principal city as the jewel it was designed to be.
On Monday, a crime that would be shocking in most of America happened in Washington, D.C.
That crime, where it occurred, wasn’t shocking at all. And this fact should create consequences that Americans from Maine to Hawaii ought to be proud of.
Edward Coristine isn’t quite 20 years old, but he’s nonetheless a famous figure. Coristine is known by his alias, “Big Balls.” He’s a college student and programmer formerly appointed to the Department of Government Efficiency, but he’s now a permanent federal employee. Coristine held the title of senior advisor at the highest pay grade (GS-15) in the General Services Administration and then moved on to a job working for the Social Security Administration.
But on Monday his eventful life took a frightful turn, as he stepped in to protect a woman targeted by a group of animals on a D.C. street bent on carjacking her. She managed to get to safety inside the locked vehicle; Coristine was beaten severely by the would-be carjackers.
This incident was notable only because it happened to someone in the public eye. Violent crime in Washington, D.C., especially that perpetrated by feral youths with zero fear of prosecution or incarceration, is off the scale.
Consider that the current murder rate in Washington, D.C., is 41 per 100,000. That’s almost the highest in the world; it’s rivaled only by places like Caracas, Guatemala City, and Pretoria among international capitals. A murder rate more than four times higher than Mexico City, three times higher than Bogota, and at least 20 times higher than any of the capitals of major countries in Asia or Europe is utterly unacceptable.
Property crime in Washington, D.C., is every bit as horrific...

It’s blacks mostly. Self govern? Gimme a break. They must think it’sWakanda.
It has to said...we know why.
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.
It won't get solved until it's OK to acknowledge that and it isn't considered "racist" to punish the perps.
Teens and youths means blacks.
We need to overhaul LBJ's Great Society programs.
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.
If you asked chatgpt, it would say you are completely wrong, weighted for social justice, blacks are the most peaceful race ( but aldo that race is a fiction)
Yes it is. It is not only about race, but race definitely is a factor.
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.

That goes for all the Democrat enclaves.
DC should have been federalized years ago.
Nah. Let it burn.
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).
Mostly blacks? Lol!
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.
