its bad for troop morale
>>1429400>Gov. Hochul deploys National Guard to NYC subways because crime is too high>nobody panics>President Trump deploys National Guard to D.C. because crime is too high>Everyone loses their minds!
>>1429407This
>>1429400Since deploying the guard, roughly 600 criminals were arrested carjackings decreased by 83%, robberies by 46%, car thefts by 21%, and overall violent crime is down 22%.These numbers were from beginning of last week.
>>1429407hey key differences:>there was actually a crime wave in NYC for them to deal with>It was done with the consent of the city's elected officials>It was just NY national guard instead of dragging in national guard from multiple other states and federal agencies>They deployed literally half as many guard members compared to dc, even though new york has 4x the population
>>1429422The key difference>not one of the people crying about the guard deployment has to worry about the crime in DC.
>>1429434The people of Ward 7 would like to speak with you. The part of DC where crime really is high doesn't have any National Guard troops stationed there. Meawhile, I know someone who's risking their freedom every time they commute into town on a scooter. They've done no wrong, they are pasty white and citizens since birth, and they work for the government itself, but the troops have decided that scooter = brown = deport, and the standard motorcycle safety equipment means you can't tell otherwise.They're not there to cut down on crime. They are stationed there to make sure the poor sods unfortunate enough to work in downtown DC know their place under the boot of the king.
>>1429434>>not one of the people crying about the guard deployment has to worry about the crime in DC.Really?>https://www.cnn.com/2025/08/20/politics/washington-dc-police-national-guard-poll>Overall, a 79% majority of DC residents oppose Trump’s order, according to the survey, with just 17% supportive of the decision.

"Know that the safety of the community is inseperable from its sense of belonging and justice, not its fear of somebody's uniform.

Wilson says the low-income area in DC's Ward 8 has endured several shootouts in which bullets struck houses, cars and even lodged in children’s bedrooms in recent years. "I think this is all pomp and circumstance,” Wilson says, “to distract people from everything else he is doing."

>>1429456>consentlolThey had a positive duty to defend their cities from crime and they refused.I remember during BLM 2020 when Oregon, Cali etc wrote Trump angry worded letters about how he was a provocateur responsible for the cities burning. And then we saw these retarded dem politicians marching in the protests.Martial law is a good thing if it keeps the communists in their homes.
>>1429458I remember a bunch of anonymous goons in rented white panel vans kidnapping people with no explanation or idWeird that its the same sort of shit we're still protesting against. The same shit that Replicunts are only concerned about when they're out of power, because they secretly yearn for the facism
>>1429458Yeah I'm sure British loyalists had the same idea.
>>1429459Trump sent in federal agents to interrogate Antifa members because dem state governors refused to let Trump send in the national guard. >muh fascismWhenever someone brings up concerns for fascism unironically, they are most definitely a communist/anarchist, because those two groups have been historically victimized by fascists the most. They labor under this delusion that communist revolutionaries are members of the proletariat, so killing revolutionaries is necessarily an attack on the collective working class. In reality: most people actually agree with the prospect of hanging seditious criminals and violent revolutionaries from trees, because literally everybody hates crime except for criminals.
>>1429464>Whenever someone brings up concerns for fascism unironicallyGee maybe it could be because of the police state that's rapidly ramping up.>In reality: most people actually agree with the prospect of hanging seditious criminals and violent revolutionaries from trees, because literally everybody hates crime except for criminals.Then why do like 78% of DC citizens disapprove of the troops being there?
>>1429464>The average person LOVES military being at every corner of their city>They LOVE being under constant watch by armed forces>They LOVE constant disappearances of their friends and neighbors off the street by unmarked, unidentified armed men
>>1429464>most people actually agree with the prospect of hanging seditious criminals and violent revolutionaries from treesMAGA just pardons them and conveniently ignores when they're re-arrested for pedophilia
>>1429467>>The average person LOVES military being at every corner of their cityThe alternative is gangs killing each other in the streets, employing prostitution and selling drugs to kids.Democrats cope by saying that this is a socioeconomic/cultural issue or whatever, but no, it's an issue of demographics with conflicting goals.If you decidedly tolerate stupid bullshit like gang crime and "mostly peaceful" protests, you don't deserve to live in a safe society. >>They LOVE constant disappearances of their friends and neighbors off the street by unmarked, unidentified armed menYeah it sure is weird how all of the people complaining about this are either illegals, antifa-adjacent or antifa themselves.
>>1429469you can stop pretending to be the law and order party, trump is a mobster and a pedophile and you love him
>>1429469>The alternative is gangs killing each other in the streets, employing prostitution and selling drugs to kids.I think it's so fucking funny you're saying this when Trump's DC deployment literally ignored the areas where that was actually happening. The places with the biggest crime rate have no troop deployments.>Yeah it sure is weird how all of the people complaining about this are either illegals, antifa-adjacent or antifa themselves.See >>1429436
>>1429469>The alternative is gangs killing each other in the streets, employing prostitution and selling drugs to kids.That is not happening in significant numbers, especially not in the areas the troops are deployed in DC. This isn't about preventing crime, it's about exerting power. >Democrats cope by saying that this is a socioeconomic/cultural issue or whatever, but no, it's an issue of demographics with conflicting goals.>Yeah it sure is weird how all of the people complaining about this are either illegals, antifa-adjacent or antifa themselves.That's not true. >If you decidedly tolerate stupid bullshit like gang crime and "mostly peaceful" protests, you don't deserve to live in a safe society.

>>1429535That's not even a "no u," retard. You're just wrong. >>1429538To make Democrats sound worse.
>>1429529i dont know dude its pretty big news that there was no crime in dc after trump did this now for now 11 days no crime.. which is basically a firstso yeah what trump did works and democrat shitholes are lawless or it wouldnt be a first to go 11 days without crimedumb cunt
>>1429583Yeah that's not true.>https://crimecards.dc.gov/Crime is still happening, with a pretty small drop. Nowhere near enough to justify this level of executive abuse and escalation.North Korea has a pretty low crime rate. You wanna be like them? People don't feel safe when the military patrols the streets.
>>1429583Good thing Trump arbitrarily cut funding for the DC police department before he started all of this shit.

>>1429422>there was actually a crime wave in NYC for them to deal withAnd there's actually a crime wave in D.C. I think anytime you have congressmen getting carjacked it's a problem.>It was done with the consent of the city's elected officialsThere was tons of opposition to the move by democrats like Adam, like NYPD chief, etc.>The Democrat was responding to a furious backlash from lawmakers and law enforcement — including NYPD Chief of Patrol John Chell, who fumed that the city’s transit system was not a “war zone” >Assemblywoman Emily Gallagher (D-Brooklyn) slammed the troops’ deployment as a “ham-fisted and authoritarian response to several terrible incidents,” while Councilman Lincoln Restler (D-Brooklyn) argued there is “zero evidence” that bag checks boost public safety. >It was just NY national guard instead of dragging in national guard from multiple other states and federal agenciesSo? Hochul only has the authority to pull what she did. If she didn't have President Trump's powers (emphasis on president) she wouldn't have dumped as many troops as she could in NYC? >They deployed literally half as many guard members compared to dc, even though new york has 4x the populationAlready covered this point.
>>1429594>I think anytime you have congressmen getting carjacked it's a problem.Big Balls is a congressman? >There was tons of opposition to the move by democrats like Adam, like NYPD chief, etc.But it was still done by an elected official of NY instead of an outside party.>If she didn't have President Trump's powers (emphasis on president) she wouldn't have dumped as many troops as she could in NYC?Not even remotely comparable. Trump didn't even need to deploy DC's guard, nevermind other states' and the FBI.>Already covered this point.No you didn't. You know even if the first two points weren't true, this amount of response is overkill.
>>1429583>its pretty big news that there was no crime in dc after trump did this now for now 11 days no crimeThat's not true. Crime's still happening. Any news media that said otherwise is lying.
>>1429597>Big Balls is a congressman?Henry Cuellar is. But you knew that and just want to play dumb.>But it was still done by an elected official of NY instead of an outside party.Point is your claim that it was done with the consent of elected officials was a fucking lie, as I demonstrated with elected officials not giving their consent.>Trump didn't even need to deploy DC's guard,And according to those same officials I quoted, Hochul didn't need to deploy her NG.>No you didn't.Yeah I did anon, but whatever you need to tell yourself.>You know even if the first two points weren't true, this amount of response is overkill.If he was only deploying all these troops to cover the subways like Hochul did, you might have a point. You're comparing 750 troops that Hochul sent just to guard a transportation infrastructure vs 2,000 troops to cover our capital city - and you're lecturing me about overkill?
shills love words like "we" and "our" don't they
>>1429594>And there's actually a crime wave in D.C. I think anytime you have congressmen getting carjacked it's a problemThis
>>1429602>Henry Cuellar isHenry Cuellar isn't what Trump used as justification for his clampdown. Also, that incident was in October of 2023; something that happened 2 years ago isn't a crime wave.>Point is your claim that it was done with the consent of elected officials was a fucking lie, as I demonstrated with elected officials not giving their consent.Did an elected official of New York make the decision to deploy the guard, as is within their authority? Yes. Did an elected official of DC with the authority to deploy the guard do so, or even approve of Trump doing so? No.>And according to those same officials I quoted, Hochul didn't need to deploy her NG.Doesn't matter.> You're comparing 750 troops that Hochul sent just to guard a transportation infrastructure vs 2,000 troops to cover our capital city - and you're lecturing me about overkill?They're not covering the whole city. In fact, they're for the most part just standing around aimlessly in the capitol parts, all while leaving the actual high crime rate parts of DC alone. Not to mention NYC revolves around said infrastructure and it sprawls under most major points of the city.
>>1429598Nah, there still crime there it just dropped dramatically
>>1429609i don't understand how your handlers let you be this lazy, shill
>>1429612Not even that dramatically. They got like a 14% drop, which when your numbers are already low to begin with, amounts to like 12 less crimes in a week.
>>1429616That accounts for the millions in funding Trump withheld from the DC police dept.
>>1429610>Henry Cuellar isn't what Trump used as justification for his clampdown.Knew this was coming.1) My point is there's clearly a crime wave in D.C.2) To your point, unfortunately Trump wasn't in office during this time and Biden was too busy sniffing 10 year olds and forgetting what planet he's on to give a fuck. Notice how one president doesn't do fuck all and the other does "overkill" in your view? I wonder who people prefer more - Oh wait, we found out didn't we.>Did an elected official of New York make the decision to deploy the guard, as is within their authority? Yes. Did an elected official of DC with the authority to deploy the guard do so, or even approve of Trump doing so? No.Nice try moving the goal posts. Your original fucking claim was >It was done with the consent of the city's elected officialsWhich turned out to be a fucking lie, because I just quoted a bunch of >the city's elected officialswho did not consent. So shut the fuck up.>Doesn't matter.>Trump didn't need to deploy NG!>Neither did Hochul.>So? Doesn't matter.Okay retard.>They're not covering the whole city.No shit, there's only 2,000 of them. They're not limited to defending the Washington Metro like Hochul did with her NG. At the end of the day you can't deny the fucking hypocrisy you TDS faggots have, where Trump does almost the same goddamn thing as Hochul and it's the worst thing ever since Hitler. Fuck off.
>>1429641jeez, you lost your temper. i wonder why
>>1429641>1) My point is there's clearly a crime wave in D.C.An event 2 years ago doesn't equal a crime wave. Crime is DOWN compared to that point too.>Notice how one president doesn't do fuck all and the other does "overkill" in your view?One president isn't basically putting DC under military occupation for literally no reason. Then escalating that occupation in spite of literally nothing happening.>Which turned out to be a fucking lie, because I just quoted a bunch of >the city's elected officialsNY's elected governor signed off. DC's didn't. It's that simple. Elected officials can disagree but the difference is a local official signed off on one and not on the other.>where Trump does almost the same goddamn thing as Hochul and it's the worst thing ever since Hitler.He didn't though. Hochul is NY's governor, using the national guard given to her as governor. The New York National Guard deployment was deployed to work WITH the NYPD, while the DC deployment is seizing control of the police away from its mayor. Trump is effectively storming into an area and using his status as president to completely upend the local elected officials and police force for his own purposes, instead of Hochul who actually had the local position.
>>1429535>midterms resulting in lame duck a l'orangeGonna be a short year for you, schizo shill
>>1429616>For the first time in a long time, D.C. has gone seven days without a homicide. Carjackings have decreased by 83%, robberies by 46%, car thefts by 21%, and overall violent crime is down 22%.lgtm
>>1429648Statistically untrue on multiple fronts. Fucks sake, DC only had 119 homicides LAST YEAR. The idea they never went a week without one prior to now doesn't make any sense; hell they went 16 days without a homicide in March literally this year.
>>1429643>An event 2 years ago doesn't equal a crime wave.I'm not going to play this stupid game with you. D.C. clearly has a crime wave when it's drastically higher than the national average (5th highest murder rate, 3rd highest agg. assault rate, 4th highest property crime, etc.). Only a complete fucking retard would try to argue that D.C. isn't a high crime area.>Crime is DOWN compared to that point too.Funny. That's the same argument those "city's elected officials" gave Hochul when she was flooding the subways with NG.>putting DC under military occupationThere you go. Keep up the hyperbolic bullshit that you didn't give to Hochul when her NG was checking the bags of every person using the subway in NYC. >Then escalating that occupation in spite of literally nothing happening.Trump just gave D.C. it's first week without a homicide. Can any of your democrats say the same?>NY's elected governor signed off.No shit Hochul signed off on herself. Did Adams give consent to have NG in his city? No, he fucking didn't. But it's different when Trump does the same thing, amirite? lol fuck off.>He didn't though. He did though, just at a higher level because he's the president.>Hochul is NY's governor, using the national guard given to her as governor.And Trump used his powers.>The New York National Guard deployment was deployed to work WITH the NYPDLet me grab that quote again. One sec...>including NYPD Chief of Patrol John Chell, who fumed that the city’s transit system was not a “war zone” Again, it's the typical left-wing stance of "It's only okay when WE do it!" every single time Trump takes a breath. You have no fucking problem with democrats deploying troops, putting their areas under military occupation for literally no reason.
>>1429653>In October 2024, Chell appeared on duty at a political rally for Donald Trump in his official NYPD uniform. During the event, he conducted interviews with multiple media outlets, including Newsmaxlmao. you can't make this up. you should try using less words and more reason next time
>>1429654And this helps your argument that Hochul's NG was working along with the consent of the NYPD how?
>>1429655i'm not who you're arguing with, shill. i'm just saying it's hilarious that you're trying to paint adams or the NYC police top brass as major democrat elected officials, considering they both kowtow to trump. and it's fun watching you lose your shit. don't go bald
>>1429656>Adams isn't a major democratWow.
>>1429400Paste the article text
>>1429657i forgot, all democrats get their corruption charges thrown out by the trump administration. very normal and totally unscrutinized by democrats
>>1429653>D.C. clearly has a crime wave when it's drastically higher than the national average (5th highest murder rate, 3rd highest agg. assault rate, 4th highest property crime, etc.)Not true in the slightest, what the fuck? First of all, DC's seemingly "high crime rate" is only when you compare it to entire states, something disingenuous considering DC is effectively a single city. If you compare it to other major cities, DC doesn't even crack the top 10 on total crime nor the top 5 on violent crimes. >Trump just gave D.C. it's first week without a homicide. Can any of your democrats say the same?lol stop getting your stats from facebook clickbait. DC only had 119 homicides last year; this year they literally went 16 days in march alone with a homicide.>But it's different when Trump does the same thing, amirite? lol fuck off.Yes because Trump is not an elected official by the people of DC. He's overstepping his bounds as president.Hochul's deployment is not comparable. The circumstances are drastically different, with Trump's deployment not only having no specific purpose or goal, but also involves him effectively hijacking local officials' powers for his own use. If you wanna argue whether or not Hochul's use was appropriate, that's subjective, but the facts of the matter is not only is Trump hijacking powers from the actual local officials of DC, he's also escalating the amount of force used with literally 0 basis for doing so.
>>1429417Last year, in a time frame of 2 less days, more arrests were made. The Guard is for Trump to jerk off to, he doesn't care about crime. He's been committing it for decades.
>>1429662>Not true in the slightest, what the fuck? First of all, DC's seemingly "high crime rate" is only when you compare it to entire states,No actually it's compared to the top 60 cities in the US, but let's please keep coping and playing this game that D.C. is a safe place where actual congressmen don't get robbed at gunpoint.Just stop. Seriously. Honest to God I can't believe there is someone dumb enough to try and argue that D.C. doesn't have one of the top highest crime rates in the entire United States. Take the L and quit while you're ahead.>lol stop getting your stats from facebook clickbait. From the same guy talking about military occupation (only when Trump does it, of course)? Okay anon. Every article I'm looking up shows crime going down after Trump deployed NG, so it's clearly having some kind of an effect despite another one of your bullshit claims that "in spite of literally nothing happening.">Yes because Trump is not an elected official by the people of DC.He's the president of the United States.>He's overstepping his bounds as president.Once more... And you won't answer this because you know you're caught... Did Adams give consent to Hochul to deploy the NG in NYC? No he didn't. Where was your criticism of overstepping bounds when she did it? Hmmmm?>Hochul's deployment is not comparable. The only reason why it's not a 1 to 1 comparison is because Trump is the president and Hochul is only a governor.>The circumstances are drastically different,Both sending in NG without the full consent of everyone underneath them to combat high crime. Doesn't seem all that drastic to me, but I'm sure the left disagrees.>with Trump's deployment not only having no specific purpose or goalThe same as Hochul: reduce crime.>but also involves him effectively hijacking local officials' powers for his own use.The same way Hochul did when she ran over the mayor, NYPD chief, and several councilmembers? Wow that's so drastically different.
>>1429672>He's the president of the United States.so you really aren't american? i guess you aren't aware of the express purpose the colonists had when they declared independence from king george. which is something we learn in like, 4th grade or something
>>1429650>The idea they never went a week without one prior to now doesn't make any senseWell that's because you're the only person who said that. Nobody ever said DC has never gone one week without a murder until you did in your straw manTypical
Why do Democrats get so angry when criminals get arrested? For like 4 years now, their entire platform has been protecting the type of dudes I see going around stealing people's Amazon packages, caught on video, committing a robbery, and overdosing in alleyways on their fentanyl they bought with stolen goods. They talk about helping these people, but the only thing they help these people do is commit more crimes
>>1429678samefagging now that your trash arguments are slapped down? you really are a shameless shill
>>1429680What the hell are you talking about, schizoid lefty? I didn't reply to anyone.They did teach you the definition of samefag when you went to shill University over in Pakistan right?
>>1429682you should really get a real job, i can't imagine being a shill is good on the soul
>>1429678Why are MAGAts so angry when they're called out on their Pedo-in-Chief letting an arrested pedo escape to Israel? MAGAts are confirmed pedo supporters. If they do anything else but accept this now proven fact, they're angry at being anything other than the party of law and order. The Gang Of Pedophiles indeed.But then, as far as MAGAts are concerned, pedophilia isn't a crime or they would prioritize the arrest of pedos over others. Which would mean starting at the White House, then all of the Republicans in the Capitol Building. Purge all the worse than criminals in their midst before they think they have the right to point fingers at others. Rules for me but not for thee indeed.Hypocrisy. It's hardwired into the DNA of rightards.

>>1429710nextdoor is your resource? LOL
>>1429710Again, this is comparing DC, effectively a city, to entire states. It's not a proper comparison; you're better off comparing DC's rates to places like New York City or Houston.
>>1429662>DC's seemingly "high crime rate" is only when you compare it to entire states, something disingenuous considering DC is effectively a single city.This makes sense. There aren't any conservative farmers or ranchers in DC to offset the high rate of Democrat crime
>>1429721it's still a crime to kill your wife even if it's easy to hide the body
>>1429721>DCPlenty of Republican crime there unless you think pedophilia isn't a crime, thus you support the Gang Of Pedophiles every second you're not demanding that they're purged for their worse than crimes
>>1429719>you're better off comparing DC's rates to places like New York City or Houston.NTA, does NYC have higher crime than D.C.?
>>1429721>Texas has the most ranches in the US>Texas is also ranked the 3rd most unsafe state in the USWhoops.
>>1429728No.
>>1429732So Hochul had even less reason to send in the NG than Trump did. Cool.
>>1429737She didn't have to distract the populace from her crimes as a pedophile, so i guess you're right in a roundabout way
>>1429666bullshit also trump cleaned up homelessnes in dc in a matter of one week while for example gavin newsome "is working on it" in california for 15 years nowthe democrats dont do the work they just signal to you stupid fucks
>>1429737Except in her case it was to address a specific type of crime that was rising (subway incidents), as opposed to "uhhhhhh my boy big balls got jumped by a bunch of 15 year olds. Martial law, go."Now I gotta ask; why did Trump feel the need to escalate even further to give those troops guns when literally nothing else has happened?
>>1429742>homelessnesYou're not American
>>1429742>trump cleaned up homelessnes in dc in a matter of one weekBulldozing homeless camps isn't "cleaning up" homelessness. They're still homeless you fucking retard; all you did is spread them out.
>>1429743>Except in her case it was to address a specific type of crime that was rising (subway incidents)Which she used to flood the subways with 750 NG. Meanwhile you're bitching about Trump deploying 2k NG to cover THE ENTIRE FUCKING CITY!>Now I gotta ask; why did Trump feel the need to escalate even further to give those troops gunsWhy the fuck would you deploy troops without guns? Do you not give firefighters water? How is the NG expected to do their job unarmed? Tell me that?By the way I notice you never could respond to my earlier post, which I called.>Once more... And you won't answer this because you know you're caught... Did Adams give consent to Hochul to deploy the NG in NYC?
>>1429744but have you ever played super homelessnes
>>1429750I have a homelesN64
>>1429749>Which she used to flood the subways with 750 NG. Meanwhile you're bitching about Trump deploying 2k NG to cover THE ENTIRE FUCKING CITY!There's over 472 subway stations in New York. They run under most of the city. New York is over 4 times as big as DC, and the NG isn't even deployed to every area of DC (no they made sure to avoid the ones with the highest crime rates).>Why the fuck would you deploy troops without guns? Do you not give firefighters water? How is the NG expected to do their job unarmed? Tell me that?Funny how you were going on and on about how good a job they were doing then, because they're only giving them guns now.Oh, and hilariously, while Addams did critique the plan, he actually did consent to it.>https://ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/politics/2024/03/12/mayor-eric-adams-expresses-support-governor-kathy-hochul-subway-safety-planPlus there's how Hochul is the one who's supposed to be in charge of deciding if National Guard gets deployed, whereas Trump basically overthrew the local mayor and law enforcement chief of DC altogether. In fact he actually had to get stopped in court from straight up usurping the position of DC police chief and giving it to Pam Bondi.
>>1429400leftist cities are problematic and filled with bad acters they need to be baby sat that's been proven from this election cycle they're all potential domestic terrorist agents
>>1429767Right-wing cities don't exist lmao.
>>1429749>Why the fuck would you deploy troops without guns?Revolutionaries are trying to gain as much leverage as possible against the state. This means using emotional appeals to disarm guards. Same shit with BLM and defunding the police. These people are scared because they're communists, and communists cannot compete against pure, unbridled state violence. Hence the phobia of authoritarianism.
>>1429767>actersKeep proving you're not American. You're almost an actor in /news/ pretending to be one.
>>1429773>the phobia of authoritarianismi believe you mean patriotism, non american shill anon
>>1429777No, I meant authoritarianism. Because these "people" are very specifically trying to seize power from the state.
>>1429778you really don't know how english works do you
>>1429769leftists states are all domestic terrorists epicenters>>1429776you're proving time and time again you are an unhinged threat to others and need to be put into a reducation camp
>>1429784>need to be put into a reducation campSays the non-American projectionist who is so illiterate he needs re-education in the English language.
>>1429792you didn't specify where therefore you are illiterate and should be sent to the furnace
>>1429784>reducation>can't spell that word properly, thus needs re-education>>1429793>therefore you are illiterateHow can you possibly find time to post in /news/ as you're so busy being a projectionist?
Kind of crazy how trump singlehandedly removed over 600 criminals from the streets of DC and lowered its crime rate by 20% in just a little over a week and Democrats try to gaslight everyone into believing it's a bad thing because reasons or something I hear Trump will be cleaning up Baltimore and Chicago next.
>>1429812>The woke democrats want you to think US troops on the streets of major cities is a bad thingBTW crime rate was already down; a "20% drop" is effectively maybe a dozen less crimes. And probably would've already been at that point if Trump didn't defund their police department prior.
>>1429817>if Trump didn't defund their police department prior.Source?According to FACTS the mayor of DC and their city council controls police budget
>>1429842>https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/analysis-opinion/trump-defunds-effective-crime-prevention-policies> In April, the Department of Justice canceled $820 million in grants supporting more than 550 organizations across the country directed at reducing crime and promoting public safety.>For example, the administration cut $13 million from a program that directly funded law enforcement in rural communities and has been used to investigate sexual assault charges and curb child abuse. It cut $3.5 million from a program that brought together law enforcement officials, community leaders, and researchers to address violent crime — a program that Trump himself deemed a success in his first term.> It cut $169 million from community-based programs that fund promising new ways to reduce violence by relying on community leaders to de-escalate conflicts before they become violent.
>>1429848let's try and guess which whaboutism he'll reply with. i'm going with either something about ukraine or transgenders
>>1429848>>1429854So you are claiming DC is a rural community? Because that's the only actual cut for law enforcement funding that lists.Everything else is community programs, you gaslighting retard Good job dubunking yourself lmao
>>1429860>So you are claiming DC is a rural community? Because that's the only actual cut for law enforcement funding that lists.Wrong.>https://counciloncj.org/doj-funding-update-a-deeper-look-at-the-cuts/>Everything else is community programs, you gaslighting retardCommunity programs still play a role in crime rates retard.
>>1429862>The GOP is a political communityAs they're the Gang Of Pedophiles, the Republicans and their Pedo-in-Chief are all worse than criminals with their ultra-illegal activities.And if you disagree that pedophilia is a crime, you're a supporter of pedophiles, >>1429862
>>1429863>>1429862Oh wow lmao, you debunk yourself on your first post, and as you uncomfortably squirm with your mistakes you post a second article that ONCE AGAIN does not claim police funding was cut to DC.You just btfo you again. Not a single mention of police funding being cut for DC, it's all community programs and think tanks.Here's the type of funding it says was cut for DC:- Arts Programs for Justice-Involved Youth- Enhancing Juvenile Indigent Defense- Bridging Inequities – Legal Services and Victims’ Rights Enforcement for Underserved Communities- Building Capacity for National Crisis Hotlines - Field-Generated Solicitation: Increasing Options and Expanding Access for Victims-National Center for Culturally Responsive Victim Services-Targeted Training and Technical Assistance for VOCA Victim Assistance and Compensation Administrators-Community-Based Violence Intervention and Prevention Initiative (CVIPI) Research, Evaluation, and Associated Training & Technical Assistance Support-Research and Evaluation of Policing Practices
>>1429868it's okay to admit you have no idea what you're talking about when it comes to cities, anon
>>1429868>not disagreeing that pedophilia - the vilest of crimes that have been committed by the Republicans - is a crimeThanks for admitting you condone pedophilia, >>1429868 the goalpost-mover & projectionist
>>1429868>Obviously none of these outreach programs had any effect on crime ratesAlso, who the fuck do you think was running these?
>>1429871>>1429873Cope seethe, try not to btfo yourself next time>>1429874Not the police, according to the linked document. It's organizations like "Network for Victim Recovery of Washington DC" and "Equal Justice Works" to name a few. In fact, the only mention I see of police in that entire document is the "Police Reform Institute" which definitely is not law enforcement.So it's now been demonstrated trump did not reduce funding to any police agencies in the document you posted without reading.Better luck next time I guess, try to stop blowing yourself the fuck out posting things before you've read them
>>1429879>So it's now been demonstrated trump did not reduce funding to any police agencies in the document you posted without reading.But he did.>https://www.reuters.com/world/us/washington-dc-facing-20-million-security-funding-cut-despite-trump-complaints-2025-08-08/
>>1429879thanks for seething at a post which touches a nerve. you'll never beat the pedo supporter allegations.reply to this post with anything other than 'republicans are pedo criminals and I condemn their criminal activities, and Trump should be thrown under the bus' and you're a supporter of the community that are criminal republican pedos.
>>1429880>>1429882This is your third attempt at posting evidence of your claim that trump cut funding to police, after your first 2 turned out to be false.I shouldn't even read your latest attempt at being wrong, but I will>The Federal Emergency Management Agency said, opens new tab in a notice posted last week that D.C. and surrounding areas would receive $20 million less this year from its urban security fund, reducing the funding to $25.2 million and amounting to a 44% year-on-year cut.Oh it's FEMA. They aren't police. You were wrong yet again lol.3x "you just btfo yourself" streak.Want to shoot for 4?
>>1429887if you want to fool idiots, maybe you should be on facebook, shill. nobody is buying your bullshit here
>>1429887FEMA giving money to local law enforcement lmao.
>>1429887>posting anything other than'republicans are pedo criminals and I condemn their criminal activities, and Trump should be thrown under the bus'You're a pedo supporter. Thanks for admitting that.
