All over the world it always seems to be the case that more left-wing parties are much softer on crime. The biggest irony in this is that crime hurts the poorest most.
I would probably call myself a tough on crime leftist, and I'm so disappointed with the rest of the left. If we want broad working class support, we cannot tolerate crime.
"We aren't taking care of these people" The city allocated $200,000,000 in 2022 alone to tackle the 5100 estimated homeless. That's $40,000 per homeless person. Lots of money for someone.
Yeh a lot of people working for organisations that are meant to help homeless get massive salaries. Look at New York pretty sure relatives of Cuomo ran some homeless organisations they got very rich.
Corporate landlords who profit off the corrupt voucher system and the mental health complex, with its pharmaceutical drugs - those who are supposedly helping are participating in a huge grift. Just left DC after 10 years. Couldn’t take it anymore even if I miss some unique things about it.
As we speak, thousands of people apply for visa for years to enter the USA to work and make money to have a better life on the other hand we have thousands of americans who choose not to work, become homeless and the rest is history............ . It's not about Policy is about people. For Americans there are no jobs and for others it is the only chance to succeed? let's be real
The democrats stopped mental health institution policies. All of those people that would be cared for by professionals are spit onto the streets instead. And their economic failures exasterbate poverty and make it worse.
If people started sleeping in tents in the White House lawn maybe then Briben would do something. Majority of people are one emergency from homelessness in this country.
Always. Our people rarely spend even 15 minutes checking out a Candidate’s actual voting record or “promises” on the platform. Yet, everyone can vote. smh
I would love to see an insight on Seattle or Portland by the Telegraph. I used to live an hour south of Seattle, and crime was so bad there that it had spilled over into the different counties.
Seattle lol? This is Washington DC not Washington the state. Washington DC isn’t a state and is near Maryland And VA. Washington state and Seattle is near Cali and is on the other side of the US. Washington DC and Washington state is 2 different places lol
Union Train Station is packed like this at any given time visitors nationally use the restrooms while the homeless go in there to wash up and have to contend with yelling and screaming.
Advice of the Day: Stop 🛑 the Violence. Stop 🛑 treating the criminals like they’re the victims. America 🇺🇸 we just all need to live in peace because at the end of the Day we’re trying to provide for our families and have a successful and productive life why would anyone want to disrupt that?
I remember taking field trips, bus trips to see the cherry blossoms and bask in the aww of the Capital. Shame. On the 1st list of cities to destroy. They succeeded
A major reason for the increase in crime in Washington DC is that it lacks the ethnic diversity as other cities. One of the reasons for the increase in crime in Washington DC is the large black population. And the number of people addicted to dangerous drugs is increasing day by day. If the government does not control this situation well, a big crisis will develop here.
We do have a lot of money in annual budgets for homeless problems. But the question is where these money went to. In some cities, folks even have crowdfunding and they're building mobile mini cabins for homeless people. And guess what, city council used force to destroy them and fined the guys who did it.
@@SL-sd3sg True. And, we have got a lot more problems. But they don't want to find solution for anything and even they created some more. It's sad to witness everything happening.
u r so wrong the shelters r not no safer than the streets fights riots rapes stabbings drug deals woman get pimped out threatened harassed attacked I used to be homeless so I am speaking from personal exsperience here
Dud we are cool make jock on trump but what whan your life make jock this is because we have no policy on how to handle crime we have NGO for terrorist, criminal, rapist but we have no support for real victim this is super power America
Ok, D.C. the home of government cover-ups and dementors of Azkaban. The city is only decaying like it’s supposed to. Good job informing everybody else.
This situation has nothing to do with left or right wing politics. It is by design, there is no affordable housing anymore and many jobs have been outsourced to other countries
remember its Democrats who made Laws let both of both of these immigrants here, so I agree lets change immigration laws! don't condemn laws that help americas but side with them when they want to let unlimited immigrants come here. use your agency to fix your own country were crime is 5 times higher than dc
I live there. This report is lurid and ridiculous. This place is fine. What is it with these leading headlines? Nobody likes the news media, and here is why.
10 Most Dangerous Cities in the US (#1 is the highest cost of crime) St. Louis, Missouri Jackson, Mississippi Detroit, Michigan New Orleans, Louisiana Baltimore, Maryland Memphis, Tennessee Cleveland, Ohio Baton Rouge, Louisiana Kansas City, Missouri Shreveport, Louisiana
Seems like we could at least offer basic facilities like showers, running water and toilets in urban areas for the homeless to use. And if nobody wants to stay in shelter and would rather take their chances on the streets, well, then it sounds like there's a problem with the shelter system more than there is with the homeless population. It's ludicrous to say that mostly all homeless people have mental health issues or are drug addicts. The facts do not support this claim. Only in the US do people become homeless due to medical bills.
Very true I've been there and i see why your better off in the street, staff are usually ex addicts or addict whatever and they're sober but still stealing from the clients. I've literally seen in 4 different places staff taking the good food or whatever is donated and give the clients bottom of the barrel, control issues too btw. I would just volunteer and keep my mouth shut and hook up people when I could.
It doesn't matter what the other party is doing or not. Look at Chicago. The people still vote for the Democrats, no matter what the Republicans do or say...
The fact that the out of 700,000 residents of our city the Telegraph interviewed two residents that have lived in the District a total of 7 yrs…… says a lot about it’s standards of journalism. As a resident of the District I feel like this piece is wildly misleading and was full of cherry-picked facts and half- truths.
It’s because the whole point was to show dc as just a place where the democrats took over. I mean like I don’t think dc is amazing (I lived here all my life) but they show dc as if like no one cares about the homeless and stuff like that
That's because democrats don't care about the homeless, they only pretend to care when people are looking so they can virtue signal, democrats are literally the worst people on earth and the blue states degrading proves that.
I lived in McLean, Fairfax County, Virginia, just outside Washington DC in the late eighties and early nineties and as far as far as I recall there is no difference between then and now. DC was called the murder capital then because more murders took place there than any other city in the US. At the time, Reagan was president and he was succeeded by Bush Senior both republicans. So I don't know what the issue is. May be it's the reporter's first time in DC. DC has always been a crime ridden place since I can remember. It doesn't matter if the Republicans are in charge or not.
FACT: DC has emptied its prisons and cried has increased by 230%,. also President edo not control crime, nor do states -- cites and counties decide policing levels and 90%of prosecution policy. Violent crime is down or flat in 2,500 of the 3,000 US counties, but handful of Dem run cesspool cities like DC are seeing huge increases due to defund police and emptying of prison's.
Definitely isn’t. Dc small asf and only 68 square miles and already at 270 homicides. The year isn’t even over with. We have more homicides than Detroit right now and we’re half the size of Detroit. U obviously never been to Dc before and if u did u most likely only been to the tourist parts and white neighborhoods. SE Dc is extremely dangerous and 90% hood. 70% of the crime happens there and SE only has a 100,000 population. NE have some areas that’s dangerous as well. Uptown is mostly gentrified. Then u have upper NW where it’s safe
USA needs Universal healthcare, rent control, many more social programs, decent mixed occupancy social housing with gardens and well paid union jobs that give people financial stability.not forgetting gun control. How bad has this got to get after more automation this is going to get a lot worse.Universal income is the only way tax the 1%.
Their fear of missing out is why we can't get anything done in DC! History repeats itself, the reign of the oligarchs is almost over. Stay tuned! Semper Paratus!
Don’t worry Washington DC, it is a pandemic across the country, it is a social problem without a solution, it doesn’t matter republican or democrat on power at any level, it is impossible to solve that massive social problem that grew like a monster. It is our ugly truth 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
But the worst cities and states are controlled by the liberal Democrats...Look at Chicago as a city or California, Washington state... No matter where the Democrats are in control the city or state is hell on earth. And the people would still vote for the Democrats. So bizarre.
