You are being purposely obtuse
It’s so bad in DC that in NYC…I was riding the train and there was a recruitment poster for DC police. I’ve never seen an ad like this in my life which shows DC police has to be understaffed and nobody wants to be a cop. I had to snap a flick of it because that shyt surprised me…
They are willing to pay New Yorkers with relocation packages to become police officers in DC…
U may not be able to see it too clearly but that says monthly academy classes, $66.5K starting, $25K signing bonus, $6K rental assistance…
Y’all think this crime shyt a game when it’s something that needs to be urgently addressed. Nobody wants to be a teacher in these cities. Nobody wants to be a cop in these cities and the businesses both small and chain get ransacked so often they have to close early or close entirely creating food deserts. These cities are eating each other alive and a lot of the shyt that happens…happens for no good reason.
@ISO if you don't live in DC can you still apply and become a DC cop? I live in Georgia.

Yes, they need bodies. Nobody in DC wants to be a cop so they have to outsource apparently.
That advertisement was on the NYC Subway.
You really think if their were more doctors and engineers in the hood that would stop dudes shooting into crowds and holding up people with guns in their faces?

throwing people who are willing to kill random Lyft/Uber drivers just trying to make ends meet would be better than what we have now

Stating every black person has to go through systematic racism and don't resort to crime isn't being obtuse.
If one of your family members got robbed or shot by a carjacker you aren't gonna blame systemic racism.
And that is the biggest problem. Racism exists, but using that as an excuse for you or others to brutalize your neighbors is pathetic. The vast majority of people in the hood are not committing crimes, so fukk that victim shyt to explain why you stuck a gun in someone's face and drug them out of their car.

Good luck making 66k work in DC... you'd definitely be living in PG.
dikkheaded kids yelling about "he was reaching". Wait until they start trying these goofies as adults at a young age. They're really going to be trying to be on some "Self Destruction, we're heading for self-destruction" shyt when one of those ghoulish politicians allow the supreme court to have youngins face the death penalty.

Your pay increases over time that’s a starting salary and police in DC who do nightshifts get paid more and there’s also OT so you’d make more than $66K.
There’s also a $25K signing bonus and $6K in rental assistance. You have to live in DC can’t live in PG.
You can find an apartment in DC…I don’t believe that. Might not be in the most desirable area…it might be a studio or small 1 bedroom…might not be a fully renovated spot but you can find a decent apartment on that salary.
Support juvenile pre-trial detention even though it’s common knowledge that incarcerating kids causes very real harms, including increasing the likelihood that they'll commit more serious crimes in the future.nikka please
They were straight up stealing corvettes and Ferraris in day light in Georgetown by the waterfront of all places...I drive a pretty noticeable luxury car on the weekends...and I enjoy going over to that area...not exactly an enticement to go over there even if it's rare. Like do I really want to spend money even in the better areas of the district if I have to worry about randomly getting carjacked by kids with automatic weapons?
