Another choice quote: "A man can only tolerate a homeless guy defecating outside his window for so long.

As soon as the left moved from class warfare to ethnic warfare, they destroyed themselves. It alienated working class voters who they need to win elections.
The whole purpose of the recent leftist insanity into make people miserable, so they'll get frustrated and bring about Tne Revolution. We don't have to do that.
Following Bowser’s grand gesture, the litany of grievances against the city which I had been unconsciously accumulating for years began to pour out. Why do I accept that it’s dangerous to ride public transportation after hours? Why do I accept that if I go to the ATM on Barrack’s Row, I will have a homeless guy pounding on the door waiting for me to come out? Why do I tolerate my car windows smashed, again and again, only to have both cops and friends say, “well, you must have left something on the seat”—as if it’s acceptable to commit a crime if the reward is valuable? Why do I tolerate streets full of urine and stinking of marijuana? Why do I put up with having to stick my fingers into my dog’s throat to unchoke chicken bones someone discarded on the sidewalk? Why do I have to wait until an hour after the local school is dismissed to avoid problems with teen gangs? And take note: I have yet to even talk about the big crime events like murder or rape.
I thoroughly enjoyable read, until the actual consequences cross your mind... Here in Northern Virginia, we've already seen what happens when the liberal urban-ites give up, and relocate to the 'burbs.
This is the migration of CA to TX, writ small. People like this turned a fairly reliable red state (VA) into a purple mess that is now decidedly more Blue than Red. It's blue now in all the ways that matter.
They should have to stay and live with the consequences of their votes. No moving out of a ruined, leftest, garbage city, like locusts and voting again for the very same policies. Screw you! You made your bed and now lie in it!
When I worked in DC, the Metro was safe, including late at night. That mayor is a failure.

See a lot of these stories and they seem hopeful but then the retards move to a nice a conservative small town and vote straight Democrat.
Californians to Texas, New Yorkers to Florida, it's all so tiresome.
We need to start a campaign in urban cities. They have the 'silence is violence' thing. We should start a 'paying tax is murdering blacks' campaign.
We should cut off the funding of these liberal politicians.
It’s true. They need you more than you need them.
walkaway.
No really, walk away.
The whole purpose of the recent leftist insanity into make people miserable, so they'll get frustrated and bring about Tne Revolution. We don't have to do that.
yep, they're directly funding terrorism at this point.
Why am I paying Congress to do nothing?
Coming to a suburb near you...
Very well written.
