Take 2 hours, 15 minutes of your time today to watch this documentary by Retired DC Police Homicide Detective Mitch Credle. It details how we lived during 1988-1999 when over 4500 were murdered in the Nation's Capital. Testimony from residents, criminals, then-youth caught up in drugs & law enforcement from those days. Heart-wrenching.

Kind of funny watching interviews of old school drug dealers and murderers decrying the lack of “morals” of the current drug dealers and murderers. I get it. It is much worse today and the boundaries have been stretched, such as killing women and children.

Yes, the current crop are worse thugs than the old timers, but you old timers were still dirty scum-sucking drug pushers and murders ruining society. If you rat punk old timers hadn’t destroyed your neighborhoods with rampant crime by doing what you were doing, the new worse punks would not have had a foundation to build upon. A pox on the lot of them.

I don’t know if I can keep going on this video. It is very depressing and not what I thought it would be.

I thought it was going to be an overview of DC crime from various aspects. It seems to be interviews mainly with 4-5 prisoners about their early crimes, how they developed, their hoods, and their prison experiences. It is not as all encompassing as I was hoping for. This video is basically just a detailed profile of a tiny number of DC criminals. Too depressing and not really what I was hoping for.

Well said. The oldtime drug dealers and assorted youth gangs paved the way for where we stand now.

It’s not race, it’s culture.

(Did I just say a dirty word?)
