I wouldn't want anything to happen to the police and troops. But if something happened to Trump...

So assuming it's true that DC actually had a murder free week, that is a good thing. The average has been less than two/week so it looks like the military occupation is doing some good.DC has murder-free week as AG Bondi touts 77 more arrests in federal takeover
Attorney General reports 53 federal arrests plus 24 ICE arrests, 10 guns seized in Wednesday operation
DC has murder-free week as AG Bondi touts 77 more arrests in federal takeover
Federal law enforcement makes 77 arrests and seizes 10 guns in Washington, D.C., operation, with U.S. Marshals recovering missing child on Wednesday.www.foxnews.com
Or that it is completely random when people murder. It is not as though two people are killed every week, just the average.

Yes, my complement to the military occupation was tongue in cheek, but I'm not sure Zen got my insinuation that a murder free week was anything for Bondi to tout.

Of course, the people who die in federal custody don't count as being murdered. In fact, we'd probably never know if they killed some homeless dudes.
That's what happened in Manila. The cops started killing homeless people. And then the rival drug lords. And so forth.

Good Lord. Lighten up. Unclench those pearls.
I’m clearly not wishing for the death of the President of the United States by improvised explosive device. It was intended to be a tongue in check comment immediately on the heels of the post I made above about wondering why mine sweeping vehicles are in Washington DC since, presumably, the homeless people aren’t planting IEDs along the city streets.

I remember my first trip to DC with my family when I was 11 years old. I grew up in a smallish town in South Carolina. I had been to Discovery Place in Charlotte on school field trips, but I don't think I had ever been to as large a city as DC. We stayed at a hotel somewhere near Dupont Circle and it was really intimidating. I remember watching the evening news and wondering how people could like in a city where there were shootings every night. We drove down Florida Ave. late one night and it was the first time I ever saw a homeless person shitting in an alley.
It wasn't until much later that I learned that, even then, the homicide per capita rate in my hometown was significantly higher than DC's. And that was before the MASSIVE reduction in violent crime in DC over the last few years.
It wasn't until several years later that I lived in the District for several months, had an absolutely incredible time, and never once felt unsafe, even though I did some dumbass things late at night.
It wasn't until 10+ years later that I started regularly visiting DC for business, which is when I discovered a city with exceptional food options, unimaginably clean and efficient public transportation, and the best walking options anywhere outside of Paris.
Trump can go fuck himself. He lived in a gilded palace on 5th Avenue his entire life, living off the proceeds from his racist dad's real estate empire. Homeless people begged for scraps at his doorstep every night, but he never had to even see them. I love New York with a burning passion, but that city, even the area around Trump Tower, is FAR more dangerous and plagued by homelessness than anywhere in DC.
98% of MAGA has never been within 100 miles of a city as dynamic, diverse and interesting as DC. You provincial bumpkins have no idea what you're missing. I love rural America and urban America alike. You assholes are missing out by living your entire lives in places of great natural beauty, but ineluctable cultural decay.

It would seem so. Is it going to last when the NG leaves, if nothing changes with the police force? Probably not, but it's not surprising that a military presence has would-be criminals taking a break.

Oh you mean like this…
Multiple transgender clinics in India, including the Mitr Clinics, previously received funding from USAID
. These clinics provided a range of services tailored to the transgender community, including general health consultations, HIV prevention, hormone therapy guidance, mental health support, and legal aid. The clinics were also notable for being run by and for transgender individuals, with staff, including doctors and counselors, being from the transgender community.
Yea my taxes being spent well by the government….Miss me with that shit…
Why do I give a shit about what is going on in India…

I don't know. Maybe because Indians are human beings? People like just you. I guess you're one of those dumbasses who just skip over the Declaration of Independence in history class to get to the war part.
NYCfan has been pretty consistent that she doesn't want people posting in a way that encourages, promotes, incites or celebrates violence against public figures. That is a reasonable position.

News to me so thanks for informing me...
Can you provide a link from a reliable news source that provides details how many of my tax dollars funded services for transgenders in India ?
If said military presence is not in the 7th and 8th ward, where most of the crime occurs, why would you think the "would-be" criminals would take a break.

I don't know where you live
But I sure don't give a shit about what is going on in your mottled brain
Not to me. I don't care at all. Just saying, if I go to someone's house and they have a rule about no shoes, then I don't wear shoes - even if I think it is a dumb rule.

Seems like pointless virtue signaling to me, but if and when nycfan becomes a moderator again and wants to sanction me for cracking a joke about IED's, I suppose it's her prerogative. If I wanted to actually wish the demise of someone- like, say, Trump- I'd be a hell of a lot more direct and explicit about it.
