While leftist protestors were moaning about Donald Trump’s crime crackdown in Washington, D.C., a few blocks away, a man was being shot.
Unfortunately, the shooter has not yet been identified, and officers told the media that they have only a limited description of the criminal, making it unlikely he will be identified — at least not any time soon.
Fox5 reported yesterday with video of the protest in multiple spots in the city, including the locale in which the unfortunate man was killed. “Breaking right now in the district, you can see people here holding signs, gathering across the city to protest President Trump’s federal takeover of the police, the live pictures right now showing you the congregation of marchers here in Northwest D.C., protesters starting in Dupont Circle,” the reporterette stated.

Another video shows protesters doing a call and response chant, “This is our city. Whose city? Our city. Whose city? Our city.” They also chanted, “Free D.C.! Free D.C.! Free D.C.!” Apparently, they want to free our nation’s capital from law enforcement in order to ensure the city continues to be under the control of violent criminals. That is the brilliance of Democrat rhetoric and Democrat policymaking. Unfortunately, the shooting victim is permanently unavailable for comment.

It is shameful that our national capital should be overrun with homeless encampments and dangerous criminals. Here’s hoping Trump‘s federalization of D.C. law enforcement proves to be a rousing success.
