A new crime wave, thanks to our open border Quislings and their greed for cheap labor and cheaper votes.

Sigh.. And my 23 year old is moving up there at the first of the month.. he'll be working for a senator...He's going through the apartment vetting process now.. he's looking primarily at the Capitol Hill area...I sure hope that the crime map we're using is correct.
I'd feel better if he could bring his .357, but we all know that story..
So if ya’ll know ANY area that better to look than other I surely would appreciate it

I have been saying this for years. Treating these invaders as guests has only emboldened them to the point where they feel entitled to whatever we have.

Name one group that doesn't feel entitled to whatever we have these days. Seriously, mindless political correctness has done more to destroy our nation than all of the soldiers in the Soviet army. Depressing!

“The poor economy is pushing more immigrants to turn to crime.” “

Too bad it doesn’t ‘push’ them to go home! Crime is evidently the logical conclusion for them instead. What’s one more law to break, right?

Last week, about 100 residents from the massive Latino community in Takoma/Langley Park, which straddles the Prince George’s-Montgomery County line, met with police officials from both counties. They demanded action for what they described as a neighborhood under siege.... Crime experts have mixed opinions on the role illegal immigrants play when it comes to breaking the law. Criminologists either believe illegals are more prone to criminal behavior because they’ve already broken one law upon entering the country, or they will more likely keep their hands clean, fearing deportation.

My impression is that they do many types of crimes not because they are Hispanic or brown or even because they are illegal per se, but because they are poor, of sketchy upbringing, undocumented and harder to trace, and desperate.

I drive through that Takoma-Langley intersection at University and New Hampshire more often than I should. I can say that the hispanic drivers in that area tend to go greatly slower than the speed limit, apparently to avoid police intervention. With regard to driving behavior, therefore, most are model residents. But it's annoying if you have to get somewhere on time and you are behind them at an intersection.

Some civil justice organization needs to sue to invalidate all political votes made when the Senator was brain-impaired.
