You know, this is a problem.
I mean, just demographically, this is a problem of overwhelmingly young black men in Washington, D.C.
I think I looked at the homicide.
and it was over 95% African-Americans.
You look at somewhere like Oregon and Portland, you have a problem of massive disorder as a result of allowing large open-air drug dealing, drug scenes, what they euphemistically call homeless encampments, but there's nothing...
particularly campy about it.
These are extremely violent places of sexual assault and drug overdose and, you know, terrible levels of deaths.
You know, it's up to it's 1400 per year.
I just checked in Oregon.
That's up.
That's much higher than it was in 2020.
So in that sense, the problem has gotten much worse.
I guess the question for the Trump administration is, where is this all headed?
I think there's been some sense in which they thought that these raids would result in a lot of self-deportation.
I don't think that's happening.
I think that in terms of having police on the streets, I'm 100% in favor.
I mean, I think that the police levels need to be much closer to Europe's, which are like 50 to 100% higher than ours, which most people don't realize.
You need a lot of police on the streets.
I'd love to see the Trump administration have a very affirmative, you know, anti-crime mental illness legislation to address the tragedy.
For example, the man that killed the Ukrainian refugee in North Carolina, Irene Zarutska.
