I had just got out in the streets in 90, and it was wild as a mf. DC didn't stand for district of columbia ,it was dodge city. I'm blessed to make it out of that time...
It just doesn’t feel like the 80s and 90s when crime was a trillion times worse than the post-pandemic world that we live in now. But, let’s get a handle on this before it gets that bad…
The violence is back at higher levels but the saturation of drugs aren’t back at those equivalent levels; now it’s heavier on organized theft and muggings, vs thousands of tiny cuts that truly rampant drugs use bring about.. These are relatively sober people that are not selling a product to the public rather organized robberies. At least that is the sense I have now. It’s definitely different, even if it got worse than it was in the 80s early 90s, it would still be different, it’s a different little era.
When it spills into the gentrified neighborhoods and one of get clipped then they will take it seriously ...still ain't the 90s where only Georgetown felt safe in DC
The Muriel Bowsers and Others of the City is what ruined it completely especially muriel bowser who worry about speeding tickets. Guess what they steal cars and flying pass your speeding cameras Lady. I seen it with my own eyes and thank god I was a walking man and not a driving one.
Yes the violence is increasing in DC. That is why the capitals & wizards are moving out of DC. It doesn't matter how much money the mayor of puts into the stadiums if crime is high in the area then the spectators will not ho to the games. Business are closing because of the crime in DC and if the mayor doesn't deal with the crime more business will move out until there is nothing left in DC but criminals.
I was accosted twice, back in May of this year, by two different homeless people at Union Station while Amtrak and Metro Police just stood there and watched...
Seriously, what are you talking about. I mean yes leaders do make laws. But unfortunately I don't think legalizing car jacking is going to help the problem sor/mam/they
She basically didn't listen to the people that helped make DC safer... People like Ron need to be heard... Thank you for sharing the history of the problem, how it was combatted and where it falls short nowadays.
Not gonna lie it’s not as bad as it was back in the day ! We can exaggerate all we want but we see the numbers and the numbers don’t lie ! If anything we ought to be grateful that it’s not as violent as it was back in the day !
Living in DC has made my experience living in Harlem look like a cake walk. At least in the 80s and 90s you could keep your head down and turn a blind eye to a certain degree. But now with security cameras like Rings, neighborhood and citizen app, on top of hearing and seeing the violence in real life really makes you aware how bad it is here. And it is random. Some guys were just casing my townhome in NW a few weeks ago. There was a teenager running around with a AR threatening bystanders. It’s bad.
ALWAYS SAY DISTRESSED NEIGHBORHOODS AND ALWAYS REFER TO THEM A JUVENILES AND YOUNG PEOPLE BUT NEVER EVER REFER TO THEM AS BLACK MALES. 77 PERCENT OF THE BLACK CHILDREN ARE BORN OUT OF WEDLOCK. THERE NEEDS TO BE A CULTURAL CHANGE WHERE THERE IS RESPECT FOR THE BLACK FEMALE AND ATTENTION TO THE STRENGTH OF THE TWO PARENT FAMILY
I'm from the west coast. I've heard from others,living in DC, Barry was a good guy. Not so much, eh? There is a docu on Tubi, covers Barry; Cecelia Moore folks& cases like that. Sorry, dont remember name. We don't know how lucky we r.
@@spokaneboy1279 people liked Barry, like how people like Trump. Barry was a good speaker and he was street savvy (using DC government vans to take me to the polls, etc) It was never a dull moment with Barry (who was getting caught smoking crack in Rock Creek Park until his dying day)!
While I haven’t been back there in years, I’d say while crime is rising it’s definitely not what it was back in the Dodge City days by a long shot. Back in that time by October the murders would’ve already been way past 400. People in the present are tripping off half of that by the same period. All I’m saying is that DC, comparatively, is better off now than it was then. It’s bad but not Dodge City state of emergency bad.
Honestly, it’s the culture. Sorry to say. No matter how many programs and how much you throw at it it will NOT change. The issue has been happening for the past 30/40 yrs and it’s only gotten worse. So again, it’s a cultural thing. Of course we can’t say who it’s coming from but everybody knows.
Oh no speak your mind it's a free country I know where it's coming from ik why and will it ever stop NO AS LONG AS MAN IS IN CHARGE IT'LL CONTINUE TO BE HELL ON EARTH. I wonder how ppl are going to react when the time comes for all of us to be judged?? Running hiding scared afraid crying ppl are going to try and bargain with their money and material crap lol it's going to be hilarious to see. Unfortunately ppl believe in WiFi and aliens and idolize mother Beyonce Lmbo and these struggle bandit rappers they don't even have to speak their music will be played when they're being judged. one day it'll be time and for those who don't believe is going to have a very rough time in the end. TO GOD BE THE GLORY FOREVER AND EVER!
These children need economic Justice. We are talking about the violence but not the economic and educational conditions that push some young people in this direction of crime. Crime pays and the adolescent brain is not fully developed. I want us to think about the effects of poverty and get serious about closing the gap.
True and it starts at home some of these parents aren't raising their children correctly!! These parents are not parents it's despicable when a 4 yr old knows her cookie is pink and her behind part is brown she wants to go to pound town!!!! Sexy Redd song she's a gutter trash rapper the music the culture social media is also a huge issue. These individuals who say they're some ones momma and daddy put a tablet in their kids hand and allow the internet to raise their children. I agree with everything you stated but it's not going to work if these parents mothers and fathers don't get a hold of their babies and fight for them to have a better life it can be done just like your solution Is achievable.
Also the homicide rate for Black DCs residents are astronomically high and very concerning. So Democrats claim to be good for Black people but how come Black homicide rates are the highest in cities under Democratic control. They seem to be part of the problem and not the solution.
I believe crime across the country has been heightened due to the loosening of gun laws in many states. The loud public debate over guns, the mass shootings and paranoia has prompted millions of people to began to open carry and conceal carry firearms. Sure, a lot of trained, leveled headed citizens can be trusted but now we have legions of untrained, emotionally unstable and/or frightened people who shouldn't be trusted with a slingshot. Many of these folks are also intoxicated on something, liquor, weed, cocaine etc. In my town the local ten years ago news reports of shootings was maybe a two or three per month. Today, I wake up to reports of several shootings every single day.
Democrats soft on crime (the majority of them) are to blame for this. Vote Republican! Crime has eclipsed pretty much every issue about DC. You can't enjoy the city unless there's a reasonable control of crime
Republicans are cool with Trump's crimes and he was at the top, so don't even try that law & order stuff. Republicans are full of it. Their states are full of crimes - the ones they control.
It’s actually because of your racism and systematic oppression that fuels this but now you’ve created a monster than can show up on your door steps anytime it chooses.
Back then if you wasn't apart of it it usually didn't come to you. Back then we PARTIED. I'm from here. Never had ANY problems back then in the early 90's. Like they say anyone can get it

Bowser really needs to get out. She's been there for three terms, and it has progressively gotten worse under her administration.
It has gotten worse. I am looking forward to leaving this city.
Vote Democrat ✌🏾
its bowsers castle now lol, the koopas are the hoodlums with guns
They don't keep violent juveniles behind bars. Then they grow up to be violent adults
Exactly, and it is normalized to accept their behavior.
I was accosted twice, back in May of this year, by two different homeless people at Union Station while Amtrak and Metro Police just stood there and watched...
Wow! So sorry that happened to you, John. 😢
Your leaving something out
lol homeless . Defend yourself
Buddy . Your not being pressed by African gangs uour good. If your scared of homlesss your the problemc
Trust me i know, cops at union are not very good at their job
Are we allowed to defend ourselves with no repercussions???
The new crack, the Internet and DC Rap music has alot to do with it

35 years later what has CHANGED?
Nothing.
I think as long as it’s rapper vs rapper nobody cares.
Protecting feelings is more important than protecting lives. That's what you get.
We got open air market every where these people don’t care they love jail that’s an air B and B to them

Not gonna lie it’s not as bad as it was back in the day ! We can exaggerate all we want but we see the numbers and the numbers don’t lie ! If anything we ought to be grateful that it’s not as violent as it was back in the day !

I lived in DC when Marion Barry was Mayor…..you all have it easy
I've lived here over 30 years, it is a different and more insidious mess now.
Facts 💯

Well said! It's a case of sensationalism
Born and raised in DC it was a nightmare and you was was lucky to survive. I still cant understand how Congress lets this go on on there backyard.

That’s where she’s wrong actually. A good chunk of the stuff was random too.
Stop blaming the government, check ur homes Where's daddy
So where the drugs come from 🤔

Thanke democrats for releasing the blacks on us
Went to dc first time in September. Work trip for 3 days. Enjoy myself
what year is this from
Sounds like every year lol.. but prob real early 2000 ish
It goes up to October 2023
Is this why there's no respect for United States 👀
Keep voting democrat.
This is ridiculous. I would never visit this crime-ridden city at night. Doesn't reflect well on elected officials. Perhaps it's time for them to go.
No FATHERSaround. All unmarried mothers having offspring. This is what happens under a policy that rewards "breeding for benefits"
MOST of this violence, has one thing in common, , people YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN ‼️
Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse.
Deploy the National Guard and it would go down 2024
You can’t fix this problem ❗️❗️❗️

Maybe they are headed to White House.
Law enforcement are also Security Guards in DC
So vote Democrat, define the police, be soft on crime.... and then cry about crime later?

Defund the police ...what great idea.. LoL 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
They have more police in DC now, no defunding took place. Great idea, it didn't fix everything did it?
Only way to combat dc is illegally
You make a great point. People usually operate off of incentives. A good example would be former President Duterte in the Philippines.
