I guess Trump was right. Today they're throwing sandwiches at federal agents, tomorrow they'll be storming the Capitol and yelling "Kill the cops!"

I like how Democrats claim that because January 6th happened, we have to accept other crimes. I feel like a more serious argument would be grounded in a belief that crime is bad. But that would imply that Trump is directionally correct about something, which is unacceptable. So you're stuck.

Yeah a sandwich crime is a terrible thing to waste.

Democrats are not claiming that. Democrats do believe crime is bad, you’ve just gobbled up the propaganda that Republicans care more about law and order because they’re willing to dole out harsher punishment for crime. You sound like the typical “I don’t like either party” voter

The argument being made isn't "Crime has been horrible in Washington DC for decades so let's work to make it better". And I'm firmly a Republican. They're a lot better at governing and are less online.

The argument being made is crime in DC has been on a downward trend and the current policies are working. But Republicans love a good anecdote to get them all riled up. We had 2 shootings in my Republican city this week - no national guard tho. Less online? Have you seen the DHS Twitter account?

Washington DC has an extraordinarily high murder rate and is slightly down from its 2013 peak. I'm not sure what policies you're referencing but typically the way to stop crime is to arrest criminals and get them off the streets. This isn't particularly earth-shattering.

Are we talking about crime rates or rates of specific crimes? Because we were talking about crime overall. This may shock you: but criminals get arrested in DC. The child who beat the shit out of the DOGE kid was arrested by a nearby police officer. You are swallowing propaganda.

#Democrats have a great new hero: #SeanCharlesDunn just became an American hero with a #Subway #Sandwich. He is going down in history as participating in a modern day David vs. Goliath moment.

As for governing, my state went from a rightwing experiment under Sam Brownback that left us $2B in the hole to a boring Democrat who has us at a $3B surplus. I’m afraid you believe the caricatures GOP media feeds you are representative of reality.

That's great! Unrelated to the discussion on crime, but great!

It was a response to you saying Republicans govern better. Someone needs to come reprogram their bot. It’s having trouble remembering what it writes.
