| There needs to be far more policing on the Tenleytown main beat and the areas around Reno |
| I hope the victim is OK. |
Sounds like an aggressive panhandler got a little too pushy or ran his mouth a little too much at the wrong guys, and they set him straight. Don’t care. |
Alternatively, some homeless man was assaulted because they are an easy target that will not talk to police. |
Except the assailants aren’t the type of people who typically assault homeless people. That’s more of a white-boy thing. -a white person. |
Except that the number of violent attacks "white boys" commit in DC (with the exception of Jan 6) rounds to zero. |
Yes. They are brave, brave citizens taking action to protect homes and businesses. |
I guess that was supposed to be sarcasm? Whatever. I’ve been the victim of aggressive beggars so many times that I’m all out of F’s to give when I hear about one getting tuned-up by someone. S,NS. |
But not brave enough to do it yourself, eh? |
I’m 5-1 and 102lbs. What exactly am I supposed to do? |
Don’t care. |
| We DCUM’ers are an extra salty bunch lately. |
I have to say that I wouldn't care about a shove or two as I am also smaller than the average homeless person and don't appreciate the remarks/behavior directed toward me. But stabbings and facial fractures? It's assault, and not acceptable as a response to a "verbal altercation". |
