Am I the only person that noticed that these are same old policies that she ha been pushing for years. It’s not working? Where are the new, bold ideas? These policies may work in some circumstances, but in concentrated areas of violent crime, it’s not going to help. That’s been evidenced because to date because nothing has changed. It’s time she realized what’s happening in parts of Columbia Heights, Park View and Petworth are special circumstances requiring special attention. Reform VICE (plain clothed is investigators trained in narcotics, gangs and guns) back to the ward permanently or at least in major, long term trouble areas. If what you’re doing isn’t working, it’s time to try something new before someone gets hurt.
