Lululemon Navy Yard closed “temporarily” after being robbed at gunpoint

There have been carjackings on foxhall road this year. Nowhere in DC is safe now that criminals have figured out there are zero consequences for crime.

Another harbinger of how quickly DC is declining. Navy Yard, the Wharf, City Center, and Gallery Place/Chinatown have been major development projects for the past 20 years. Literally, billions invested. And for a number of years it was all great. No one worried about their safety. But after BLM and the collapse of policing and prosecutions, the city is reverting to what what it was in the 80s. Lawless. A ghost town downtown. No one wants to go there. Even the sports teams are leaving.

DC is quickly entering a doom loop. Until DC gets really tough on crime and prosecutors and judges do their jobs, the death spiral will continue. And I don't see that changing. Voters in DC will always vote for progressives. And they value spending a quarter of a million dollars repainting the Black Lives Matter sign on 16th over actually arresting the few hundred criminals that are terrorizing this city.

We avoid going into DC if at all possible. It just is not worth the risks.

Is that the one Fentys parents own? The irony.

I thought they own the one in Adams Morgan, but the one in Georgetown has the same parent company (Fleet Feet).

That’s really silly and hysterical. Crime is a problem, but a lot of NW isn’t experiencing this. I live near Georgetown and see none of this.

That's because nothing is worth robbing these days in Georgetown.

Low information and must not really follow the news. Carjackings on that side of town not quite daily, but definitely weekly. I live in a nice area of town but stopped a volunteer project I did every week mainly to limit metro time back and forth.

You don't like the source, so you question the veracity of the story?
You're hiding your head in the sand, honey.
(and, it is not "Fox News." It is a local Fox affiliate.)

I feel like the rise in crime is retaliation for criticizing the police. They keep letting them go. . .

Cops retreated to the donut shop once we let them know that pursuing criminals would land them in jail on a murder charge like what happened to Terence Sutton. DC residents have made it clear they prefer the crime.

A local news station reported on a pretty brazen and shocking crime. As did other outlets.

It's people like you who have helped drive this city into decline with your virtue signaling and snark to try to deflect from harms that have resulted from policy changes. DC cannot afford to lose more business tax revenue if services are not to be cut and it sure as heck can't afford more violent crime. Who would be comfortable having a kid with a part time retail job in DC these days?

You are ignorant. Do you even live here? Did you take civics in school? What about the federally appointed USAO who declines to prosecute 67% of arrests or the elected AG who natters on about gas stoves and "kids are kids" and whose prosecution rate is only slightly higher? What about the laws that the Council has passed to prevent police from being able to follow criminals as long as they get in a vehicle and turn a key?
