Facts don't matter to leftists who live in a fantasy world where criminals are victims

Man shot and killed just blocks from DC protest against Trump crime crackdown



An unidentified man was shot and killed Monday, several blocks from protesters rallying against President Donald Trump and his decision to deploy the National Guard in Washington, D.C., in order to combat crime.

Trump’s announcement on Monday during a press briefing comes after a series of high-profile attacks in the city this year. The Metropolitan Police Department told the Daily Caller News Foundation that officers responded around 7:01 p.m. to the 1200 block of 12th Street NW, where they found an unconscious adult male with multiple gunshot wounds.

After lifesaving efforts by D.C. Fire and EMS, the man was pronounced dead at a local hospital.

About 30 minutes earlier, at 6:24 p.m., FOX5 reported protesters had gathered in Dupont Circle. The large group was seen with signs and loudly cheering before moving north along 14th Street to oppose Trump’s move to federalize the city.
