What's your take on the article saying that D.C.'s crime rate is at a 30 year low?
I do not believe crime is accurately tracked [1]. Calling in the guard is not overreach when a city is demanding it through inaction.

Is the city calling for protection, though? There's a big difference between police departments fabricating data and a need for intervention, whether through taking control of the city police or bringing in the national guard. What's the actual situation? Why is the Trump administration militarizing the city instead of running statistics to get actual crime numbers?
