Crime in Washington DC has been nearly cut in half in just a couple weeks according to mayor.
Mayor now thinks DC should have more police officers.

Bowser says violent crime in DC down 45%, urges less focus on immigration enforcement

During a situational update on the federal law enforcement presence in the District on Wednesday, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser stated that violent crime is down 45% since the oversight started, compared with the same period last year.

What we know

Overall, there's been a 38% drop in homicides, an 87% drop in carjackings and a 62% drop in robberies. These figures come as arrests in D.C. this month have topped 1,500, which is up 20% from this time in 2024.

"We greatly appreciate the surge of officers that enhance what MPD has been able to do in this city," Bowser told reporters on Wednesday. "We know that when carjackings go down, when use of guns goes down, when homicide or robbery go down, neighborhoods feel safer and are safer."

"This surge has been important to us," she added. "If there were 500 additional MPD officers, that same activity, arrests and gun recovery would have likely been made."

Mayor Bowser reportedly spoke with President Donald Trump and U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi before meeting with reporters. She said during the press conference Wednesday that during these calls, she was unable to determine if Trump and Bondi are intending to end or extend the federal oversight beyond the initial 30 days.

"That was not something that I discussed with the president. What we want is local control of our public safety ecosystem," she said when she was asked what she wanted after the 30 days are up. "That includes deployment of officers, and we want federal officers that work in coordination with us — DEA, ATF, FBI.

She added, "After 30 days, I think we're going to have officers, and we want officers. We want to enhance our officer presence."
>>
Despite being seemingly pleased with these figures, Bowser said that she senses a lot of "anxiety" in the District right now and added that federal officers need to be less focused on immigration enforcement and more on violence.

"What we know is not working is a break in trust between police and community, especially with new federal partners in our community," she said. "We know having masked ICE agents in the community has not worked, and national guards from other states has not been an efficient use of those resources."

FreeDC, a social justice campaign whose goal is to protect Home Rule in the District, criticized the mayor's conciliatory tone in a statement issued Wednesday

"The people of D.C. deserve better than what the mayor said today," Nee Nee Taylor, co-founder of FreeDC, stated. "It is dangerous for MPD to not be accountable to the people here. Our demand remains that all escalated federal forces leave D.C. immediately, and that the leaders who are sworn to serve D.C. residents work to end this occupation and do everything possible to protect people during this period of increased danger and threat."

Several Democratic members of the D.C. City Council spoke out on social media, as well.

"We should not, as the District of Columbia, be giving people the impression that this is a good thing, that we are OK with it, that it is helping the city. It is not doing any of those things," at-large Council member Robert White Jr., said in a video on X. "I am not OK with this. The average resident is not OK with this. D.C. residents, D.C. voters, are not OK with this."

Cool. I can't wait to see you reply to yourself or someone else and blame it on me.

So how low is it now? 50 year low? 75?
Trump undid literally decades of rising crime rates in just 2 weeks by simply stopping Democrats from being able to action their "soft in crime" aporoach

i can't wait until we get rid of all shills

White nationalist fascist like this moron think it's okay to have an army occupying your own Nation. When they take away it's guns, it will be crying. When they take away its vote, it will be so sad.

You can think we should crack down on guns and also the military occupying US cities is bad at the same time. They are ideas that can in-fact co-exist.

Meanwhile, odd I haven't heard much from the "Guns are for preventing government overreach!" crowd when the government actually starts overreaching.

Clearly you didn't think your position through in the Minneapolis thread if this thread upsets you so much.

>Meanwhile, odd I haven't heard much from the "Guns are for preventing government overreach!" crowd when the government actually starts overreaching.
Probably because this happened in D.C. where "Guns are for preventing government overreach!" people no longer exist.

You voted for this you dumb faggot.

Hey you know the opinion of "maybe it shouldn't be ridiculously easy to get a gun" is not the same as "no guns at all". One is what MOST fucking countries have.
>>
>>1430740
Accurate.
>>1430741
How about Dems just start arresting criminals again and stop being so soft on crime? That's all that's required here. The sad part is that it required deploying militia to give the Democrat controlled DC police the assistance they needed to actually arrest criminals.
>>
>>1430743
Riiight. We don't want to ban ALL guns. We just want to have common sense blah blah suck my dick blah blah.
>One is what MOST fucking countries have.
And here we go again. Yeah let's talk about the United Kingdom some more and how their 12 year old girls need to carry knives for protection against Middle Eastern rape gangs.
>>
>>1430743
Most guns used in crimes are stolen from people who are allowed to have them.
The problem here is the criminals, it's not the victims
>>
>>1430746
Don't forget the straw purchasers that dems go soft on as well. For example, that one bitch in Chicago who sold guns to four separate gang members and only got probation.
>>
>>1430747
Nearly 50% of crimes involving guns used stolen weapons and the other 50% account for all other sources.

Dems need to crack down on crime, I agree, and straw purchases and thefts should be handled severely.

Their strategy of blaming victims for getting their guns stolen and wanting to crack down on people who legally own a firearm is not a winning strategy
>>
>>1430741
That is because the government is not overreaching.
>>
>>1430706
Terrible news. Everyone in DC should be killed.
>>
>>1430759
>Nearly 50% of crimes involving guns used stolen weapons
1. No they didn't 6% did with another 7% used guns found at the scene. You would literally only get to over 50% if you lumped those together with the 43% obtained through black and gray market sales and you're assuming every fucking one of those black and gray market guns is stolen, which is obviously not true.
2. You do bring up an interesting point that failure to report a lost or stolen firearm should be a felony though. If a legally owned gun goes missing, it should be run down as soon as possible. That many guns being stolen would be a sign of massive amount of neglect on the part of gun owners. There should be consequences for that sort of thing. Imagine if a pharmacy kept getting robbed to a degree where it was keeping half the local illegal drug trade alive? That shit should be shut the fuck down.
>>
>>1430741
>Guns are for preventing government overreach!" crowd when the government actually starts overreaching.
The government is overreaching by enforcing existing criminal and immigration law?
>>
>>1430763
>You do bring up an interesting point that failure to report a lost or stolen firearm should be a felony though. If a legally owned gun goes missing, it should be run down as soon as possible
Yeah I totally agree with this. If an owner knowingly has a weapon stolen or lost and they don't report it, this should be a crime

I don't get it, are you guys pro nigger or something? Noguns?
>>
>>1430763
Regular gun owners are not the ones losing their guns. It's extremely rare that a gin is lost. You have a free that get lost with luggage or stolen out of a car, but that's it. All the "lost" guns happen the same way all the other guns get on the street. Gangs just have one 18 year old go on and not as many as possible and then "lose" them or just say they're stolen. This is already illegal.

Liberals lie about this though and pretend it's not an extremely rare thing that basically doesn't happen for 100% law abiding gin owners. The easiest solution is exactly like you said though
>>
>>1430715
Its even worse than this. Trumps goons retardedly claimed that DC was lying about crime data and faking to make things look better than they were.
The same people are producing stats off the same sources, but now that Trumps in the city suddenly all these concerns over the people lying over data evaporate.
>>
>>1430770
Also cops lose a ton of guns. Or "lose" them from inside supposedly secure evidence lockers. How exactly the same individual gun gets taken off the rapidly cooling body of its most recent user by police more than once is a question they don't seem to want to ask.
>>
>>1430715
>>1430774
>>1430722
>the data is fake, Trump is lying!
I'm not one to automatically trust Trump but if the data is false then why does the Trump-hating Democrat mayor say that the data is real?
>>1430743
>no guns at all
DC banned all handguns until the conservative SCOTUS overturned it. Dems have been trying to ban semi-automatic rifles since their previous ban expired in 2004. That leaves shotguns and bolt-action/lever-action rifles. You want to make it incredibly difficult and expensive to get those and eventually you would just find an excuse to ban those too since the bullshit reasons you come up with for banning other guns apply to those guns too.

so yes you obviously do just want to ban all guns.
>>

She's probably concerned Trump will just ignore the 30 day limit and keep the feds in control of the city indefinitely if she crosses him. He has proven particularly unconcerned with respecting any boundaries placed on his power in his second term.

Donald Trump, current Commander of the Armed Forces, is a 34 time convicted felon. He successfully argued before the Supreme Court, consisting of 3/9 justices nominated by him and who chose not to recuse themselves from the case, that presidents are effectively above the law.
There is quite literally no more lawless thug in America than the convicted criminal currently occupying the White House.

He was convicted once and served his sentence and has not rescinded. He is rehabilitated

I know you're a terminally retarded shill, but if the data was false, why are the same returns from the same source suddenly true now when it looks good for Trump?
>>
>>1430774
People def do argue this.
Personally what I've seen in my municipality since 2020 (it's getting better now, we elected a much less progressive mayor) is that it's not that any crime data was actually faked, but police departments were given strict instructions by the mayor/council about how/what crimes they were to actively pursue.
For example, police were told not to investigate, or dispatch officers to calls involving non violent crimes which were not currently in progress. This meant that for property crime, if the criminal had already left then the person would actually have to go down to the police department if they wanted to report a crime, otherwise nobody would come out to take a report.
Another thing they did was instruct police officers not to pursue suspects if they were not suspected of a violent or sexual crime, this was supposedly to reduce harm on the community. It resulted in once again lowering the reported rates of crimes because they wouldn't be investigated and so no criminal report would often be filed once people became aware of this.

Most of this was a result of new progressive ideas in how criminal justice and community safety should be done, And as we saw from 2020 to 2024, it really just increased crime everywhere that tried it.

Idk why DC police aren't able to do their job. They used to be able to, and then something changed around 2020
>>
>>1430838
Crime was at a 20 year low before Trump cut funding to the DC police department.
>>
>>1430837
you called yourself esl, shill. but thanks for confirming
>>
>>1430826
>but if the data was false, why are the same returns from the same source suddenly true now when it looks good for Trump
This is honestly the most dangerous concept Trump has brought to the political mainstream
It's one thing to say "Government can't be trusted."
It's another for the President of the United States to habitually say the system can only be trusted if he is in control, and even then if it produces results he doesn't like it can't be trusted. But any outcomes the system produces that are in his favor are trustworthy and if fact can not be questioned.
What makes it worse is his pathological willingness to lie without batting an eye about anything from trivial things like the weather to major issues like the outcome of an election.
It takes the nihilistic relativism of populist politics and applies it to the legal system. That some legal rulings count and others don't. That some laws count and others don't. It's all just based on what feels true.
Trump's baseless accusations of DC lying about crime stats, only to turn around and use the same stats as proof of his policy succeeding, is a perfect example of this legal nihilism.
If the system can only be trusted when it's convenient, it can't be trusted.
>>
>>1430839
>Trump cut funding to the DC police department
We've been over this. That never happened. The giant sheet of funding that was cut was for non-government and non profit organizations and there was not a single police department named on there, anywhere in the US

Ask for new propaganda please, debunking your claims repeatedly gets old

>>1430845
not smug enough, shill, try again

>>1430838
>Idk why DC police aren't able to do their job
Democrats want to believe that every single person is intrinsically equal, but this only works for them if there is a single human nature which underpins all human behavior.

If different people do have different natures, then the American experiment falls apart. Because if the tendency for a demographic of people is to commit violent crimes, regardless of economic status or culture, then there's no reason to tolerate them in civilized society.

If you were a black progressive woman governing a city, you would probably have every incentive to deny that these differences exist. You might even use your power and status to cover up the evidence of these crimes, or better yet, instruct the police not to patrol certain neighborhoods. Because a crime can't be recorded in a given neighborhood if there is no police presence in the first place.

You now know why BLM wanted to defund the police.
>>
>>1430849
you're intrinsically a faggot
>>
>>1430849
Sort of like if you had an agenda based on white superiority, you'd go out of your way to amply examples of black, Latino, or other minority crimes, and even use power you may have over those communities to exacerbate those crimes.
This is of course coupled with a deliberate downplaying of white crime (i.e. calling crime committed by black people "Black crime" but crimes committed by white people "crime") from the media platforms you control, and coordinated smear campaigns against any person of color who excels and counters the narrative of their inherent inferiority (DEI hires!).

Ahh so you're trying the 'purposely obfuscating the argument' route. With a link to a thinktank. Whatever discount shilling group you work for needs to hire better.

He cut much more than that one FEMA grant, but just because the grant was from FEMA doesn't mean it didn't go only to the programs you listed. Anyway he cut other funding in his budget, the BBB and in EOs.
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/14/us/politics/trump-washington-dc-crime-police.html
>The Trump administration has taken steps that have hobbled Washington’s efforts to reduce crime, such as gutting its U.S. attorney’s office and enacting budget cuts of more than $1 billion.
So in reality the cuts are much more than just that one FEMA grant, which didn't only go to the programs you listed anyway.

Nice try, though, let's see how your damage control team weasels out of this one.

I mean, whatever helps you cope with the facts man.
95% reduction illegal immigration over 3 months, 45% reduction in crime over 3 weeks

She's not wrong.
If crime is already solved and then you bring in a bunch of National Guard troops to uselessly pick up garbage and clean up parks and harass citizens smoking on their porches, and crime is still solved, you can declare that crime is solved.
If morons believe that it was due to the national guard though, they've just proven themselves to be morons.

Good post. Especially the second half of it.

wow what a shock that crime is down when there's military everywhere. it's not a solution.
>>
>>1430907
>it's not a solution.
It's working, so that's not true at all.
I don't understand why you people keep pushing advocacy for things that increase crime.
Like seriously. All this scaremongering, and for what? Because Trump is le bad fascist man? Because of Red vs Blue retarded politics?
>>
>>1430908
you're certainly working, shill

Crime was solved in DC before Trump solved it?
If that were the case, people wouldn't be getting beat up and carjacked regularly

This is that same exact cope you shitshills used after Biden demolished records for illegal immigration and then reduced it 20% during an election year, you tried to claim he fixed the problem, when in reality it was still very bad
>>
>>1430915
This. 100000% this

They weren’t.
>>
>>1430767
nah, we're anti-authoritarian. We don't like the military presence in our cities because we like having freedom and peace when they're not forced by gunpoint.

But seeing as how violence and the threat of violence is the only way people like you understand anything, points like this sail right over your head.

Eat a dick or hot lead.

He's mostly right. Hard to tell for murder though since Wikipedia groups it with "non negligent homicide" and placed DC at 10th for "murder and non negligent homicide"

The same Democrat party that ruined people's lives for not taking experimental vaccines that did nothing and bans and censors everyone and burns down entire cities over niggers that were high on fent?

hey do we need to pull out the vaccinated vs unvaccinated death rate chart again?
>>

No, you are schizophrenic or a busted ass shill who is paid not to admit that multiple people disagree with the shit you're pushing.

Maybe you're both
>>
>>1430939
>>1430935
I stand corrected. Still doesn't warrant troops on the streets, though.
>>
>>1430957
What have they actually been doing there? Are they actually participating in arrests?
>>
>>1430943
And it will help if we remind him that it was Trump that fast tracked the vaccine and also one of the first people to get it
>>
>>1430963
I'm pretty sure I've read you people arguing about this exact thing before and his response was something like "trump didn't force people to take it though"

Posting on this board is like living in some sort of twisted nightmare Groundhog Day hell, reliving the same shit experiences with each day

>>1430963
>also one of the first people to get it
That was back when he had that mini stroke and tried to keep it secret.

And yet that "34 time convicted felon" has done more for Americans than any democrat in office, especially the last guy. Say what you will about Trump, at least he didn't let 13 soldiers get blown the fuck up in Afghanistan by an ISIS bomber HE let out of jail because he was too fucking incompetent to use Trump's plan and evacuate out of Bagram like anyone with half a brain would have done.

Another day, another stale shill talking point

Such as? Gutting the CDC? Ballooning the national debt? Taking healthcare away from people?

Kicking out illegals. Preserving and expanding gun rights. Reducing crime in D.C.

Y'know all the things democrats hate.
>>
>>1430740
What about republican women?
>>
>>1431012
>Kicking out illegals
Yeah because terrorizing communities with ICE raids, killing the tourism and farming industries, and giving ICE a budget on par with some military branches even though they fail TO THIS DAY to meet quotas is really helping the average american.

>Preserving and expanding gun rights.
Name a single EO or law he's made about the second amendment in this admin.

>Reducing crime in D.C.
Crime was already down in D.C, all he did was overreach his power to overthrow local leaders. Also, how does this help Americans who aren't in D.C even if you don't care about either of those?
>>
>>1430974
Thanks for at least admitting you made it up
>>
>>1431018
Stop posting your delusions on the news board.
>>
>>1431019
You debunked yourself though.
Again.
You made up words that were not in your source.

If you think walking slowly down a ramp translates to a stroke, you must think that Biden is a 5x seizure survivor since hes fallen so many times
>>
The reason crime went down was because "the youths" went back to school. DC police also enforce attendance with truancy patrols.
>>
>>1431021

Who are you trying to gaslight? Everyone saw him struggling to pronounce the word 'orange' at the time. For a while couldn't even say the words 'United States' properly without slurring. I don't understand why you're so defensive about it. Millions of elderly people have the same problems.
>>
>>1431023
Too bad that not a single reputable source has ever reported that trump has had strokes and Twitter reports
>>
>>1431035
>Everything I don't like isn't a reputable source
Ok
>>
>>1431021
"The youths" don't go to school. Gangs pay them cash to defend gang territory and sell drugs.
>>
>>1431017
>Yeah because terrorizing communities-
The law takes precedence over the feelings of criminals.
>>
>>1431044
then why does trump (a felon) keep breaking the law simply because he feels like it
>>
>>1431036
You do not have a single source besides yourself, maybe Twitter, or possibly people reporting on what someone said on Twitter, which reports that Donald Trump had a stroke walking down a ramp

Snopes already debunked your fake lies, propaganda shill.

Tell your boss you need new material
>>
>>1431053
Why does his having a stroke make you so angry?

>>1431022
DC's crime rate was already trending downwards before this shit began. There's been a year-to-date 27% drop in violent crime in 2025 compared to 2024.
https://mpdc.dc.gov/dailycrime
We are spending a million dollars every single day to deploy several thousand national guard around DC. Most of those men aren't doing jack shit. They're picking up trash and spreading mulch. At best, they are arresting fare jumpers on the Metro. Just a few days ago, a woman was stabbed on H Street while a bunch of National Guard were having lunch nearby. The guy that stabbed her got away, because the guardsmen didn't know what the fuck to do. Crime is still happening in the city, especially in the 80% of the city where the National Guard isn't patrolling in.
So even if you could definitively attribute the mere presence of the National Guard as the cause of the drop in crimes, you've only lowered the crime rate from -27% to -45%. The cost to the US taxpayer for a slight drop in crimes in one single city is $135 million, and that number is growing every single day.

>>1431043
That doesn't happen in DC. Metro police do patrols during school hours, and they have a mandate to arrest unaccompanied minors that are on the streets from 8-4.
>>
>>1431057
>There's been a year-to-date 27% drop in violent crime in 2025 compared to 2024.
What was the most violent year ever on record in DC? Was it 2024? Or was it 2023?
A 20% drop from historic highs is still pretty damn high
>>
>>1431075
>What was the most violent year ever on record in DC? Was it 2024? Or was it 2023?
Not by a long shot. 1991, which was almost 2x higher than 2023.
>>
>>1431094
I see you're right. In 2023 the violent crime rate in DC was the highest since 2003, but not all time high
