This is when we started to run the whites out of the city. DC citizens have historically had a low tolerance for white bigots and their bullshit and would not hesitate to bring the violence to them. We maintain that mentality til this day.
The District.
Most recently exemplified when… ?
Lil youngins out here lost freely volunteering for the prison system. Shit is sad to see. Smh...
Yea it's time to get rid of the filth in DC. If these lil niggas don't wanna act right, lock em up.
Tired of do nothing ass niggas. Just wastes of space atp.
There's no order or discipline in the community anymore. Just ignorant buffoons. How you gonna attack blk college students at Howard?
Where's the respect?
That's Clinton-era superpredator logic.
Rinse and repeat.
You gonna give them all life sentences? You can't with that crime, so what happens when they get out?
Prison is not the answer. The problem with DC is not that there are not enough black men in prison.
I'm not even claiming to have the answer. I just know a shortcut that is likely to backfire when I see one.
Bill O'Reilly had a segment last week agreeing with y'all, that the problem is not enough black people in cages.
First example, of course, is Chicago.
Cites Chicago PD-- Murder victims: black murder victims 77%, white 4%. Goes through numbers for assault, sexual assault, robbery, human trafficking. All huge disparities.
Lists a few other cities. "The district attorneys there, in the cities mentioned and others, will not enforce the law. Why? Because they don't believe in quote 'mass incarceration.' What is mass incarceration? That's putting young black males in prison. Because young black males commit violent crimes far more than any other group in this country. So, for decades, they were incarcerated."
That all comes before the 4:12 mark, which is where he brings up DC specifically.
"45% of DC is black. Almost all of the violent crime is in the black neighborhoods." Plays the Councilman Trayvon White clip about DC being a war zone.
I can't side with that. Never will.
Amazed to see it stated here and people co-signing it.

DC to enforce curfew to address youth crime
Officers will patrol these seven focus areas around DCWUSA9- August 17, 2023
WASHINGTON — Authorities will begin enforcing a youth curfew as part of ongoing efforts to address crime in the District. Acting Metropolitan Police Department Chief Pamela Smith announced for the curfew enforcement pilot program during a wide-ranging press conference on public safety on Friday.
The pilot program was launched in partnership with the DC Department of Youth Rehabilitation Services. Officers from MPD's Youth and Family Engagement Bureau will patrol seven initial focus areas to identify juveniles in violation of curfew.
The seven areas are as follows:
- Chinatown and Navy Yard
- U Street area
- Howard/Banneker
- 14th Street between Otis and Spring Road NW
- 4000 Georgia Avenue NW
- 4400-4600 Benning Road SE
- 1300 Congress Street SE
"Our goal here is to make sure our youth are safe. Parents, we want you to know where your kids are overnight," Smith said Friday.
The curfew is in place for anyone under the age of 17. It will be in place from Sunday through Thursday from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m., and Saturday and Sunday from 12:01 a.m. to 6 a.m.
According to MPD, those who violate curfew will be brought to the Department of Rehabilitation Services where the agency will connect with the youth and their families to proactively engage them and offer rehabilitative support.
"The goal isn't to arrest our young people, but we want to ensure the safety of our youth here in the District of Columbia," Smith said.
D.C. has had a curfew on the books in the past, but it is not routinely enforced.
In addition to the curfew pilot program, the District will be adding 50 CCT cameras throughout the city, with a commitment to double the number of cameras over the next two years.
While addressing what comes next in the District's crimefighting strategy, Smith and other city officials also pointed to progress being made.
Smith said that when she was appointed acting chief, D.C. was experiencing a 60% increase in robberies. Smith said the department has looked at data to launch the Robbery Suppression Initiative last month.
Since launching the initiative, Smith said the department has seen a 21% decrease in robberies. Smith said robberies and carjackings were driving violent crime numbers, as well as fear of crime citywide.
Since launching the initiative, officers assigned to the unit have arrested 30 people and taken 26 guns off the streets.
"We will continue to launch initiatives like this to address issues that are driving crime," Smith said.

Verify: Do juvenile curfews help reduce crime?
With a debate on whether or not youth curfews help to reduce crime, WUSA9 works to verify.Author: Brittney Melton, VERIFY, Evan Koslof
September 9, 2022
PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, Md. — Prince George's County Executive Angela Alsobrooks announced a new youth curfew on Monday which has sparked a debate.
Some people online are debating about whether curfews actually work to reduce crime and while there's no definitive consensus there have been a lot of studies.
The Verify team turned to expert sources to break down the topic.
SOURCES:
- Jillian Carr, a professor at Purdue University
- Eduardo Ferrer, a law professor from the Juvenile Justice Initiative at Georgetown University
WHAT WE KNOW:
A 2016 paper looked at data from 12 different studies on curfews."It found that juvenile curfews are ineffective at reducing crime and victimization," Ferrer said.
Then there's a 2000 study that focused specifically on Prince George's County and states that the impacts on people under 18 were "small and not statistically significant."
Although the study found that crimes against 22- to 25-year-olds did appear to go down.
Meanwhile, another study published in 2017 looked at D.C. gunshot data and found that gunshots actually increased slightly as a result of an earlier curfew. Carr researched this paper.
"When you take innocent bystanders off the street using something like a curfew, you're potentially reducing the cost to firing a gun," Carr said.
A 2012 study, which has a very different result, finds that curfews reduced the number of young people being arrested by about 10%.
So while the data is not definitive, there are numerous studies suggesting youth curfews may not lead to reduced crime.
A spokesperson for Alsobrooks told WUSA9 that they've used curfews in the past and had tremendous success.
"The administration successfully utilized a curfew in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic after thousands of youth were gathering at National Harbor," the spokesperson said. "The purpose of enforcing this existing curfew is not to penalize or burden children, it's to engage parents and family members in their safety and wellbeing."

Whites love bringing up the "disproportionate" stats argument when it comes to penalizing Black criminal behavior but never mention it in terms of poverty, underfunded communities and schools and sentencing when it comes time to discuss redress.
That's the form of reparations I support. I think the focus on "checks" is a short-sighted solution to a generational problem. We need 100 years of serious investment in black communities and institutions.
Them lil niggas gon learn one way or the other. Prison is the answer unfortunately for them to cool the fuck out.
They not listening to the elders or the Og's.
The problem is that most of em weren't raised with any home training and now they out here being menaces to society.
Bro they attacking blk students bro!!!!! Just think about that. They attacking blk kids who putting in work for a better future for our ppl.
I'm sorry but not everybody blk gonna be able to make it like this is some fantasy utopia.
If you can't cool out and get it together, let the prison sit em down for a few yrs.
Shit is getting ridiculous out here. They shooting up uber drivers, carjacking old ladies, shooting pregnant blk women & kids, robbing old ladies at atms...lock these niggas up!
I had an Uber driver tell me how he got caught in the middle of a shootout in DC. Also had another Uber driver, who was Kurdish and had fought in the Peshwarga, that he wasn't afraid of what someone would do to him - he was afraid of what he'd do to them!
Yall niggas tripping, that sound is Mexicans doing construction. They got little arms, so the tools sound is distorted.
This ain’t nothing new. DC is a city known for robberies.
The District!!!!
D.C is like earth and Mar,it's so far away til we don't hear much about it and never have unless something big has happened there.I've only met two people who moved there and is actually from there in my whole life and the person that moved there said he loved it cause it's black people everywhere.My mother noticed it during a layover at the airport that all the workers were black.
I think this is relevant to the attacks on DC lawmakers:
Y’all got 3 times the murder rate pal
The idea that Mt Pleasant is somewhere anyone wouldn’t “dare go at night” is so laughable…
There are homeless people and they always ask for money, which is annoying. There’s no threat. It’s just unsightly.
These businesses and people calling for policing just lie their asses off.
