Can't they see that we will not progress in any way as a city until we get this crime wave under control? It has to be the top priority for everyone. And it will require real work, not silly resolutions.


That ANC is a clear and present threat to Ward 3. It’s a rouge’s gallery of Hamas supporters, socialists, and other malcontents.


Saying Israel should slow down or even stop with the kid and women killing in Gaza isnt the same thing as being "pro-Hamas".


Ok, Hamas-supporter.

Maybe a dead body blocking the lane, that is about the only way they will take notice. Even than, it is questionable.

Yawn.


A comprehensive claim against your insurance for vandalism can cause a rate increase.

I have never been drowning in my car and needed to immediately smash a window with a tiny shard of ceramic.



Way to miss the issue, and it isn't more secure locks on the cars. But I think you would make a great ANC rep (if you aren't one already).

bored teenagers?


Maret students?

Nah.


It was 1 guy on an electric scooter. Just a lot of property damage for no real reason. Was not rifling cars. Just smashing glass.


Sounds like a road design issue.


If it’s a rented electric scooter, can’t we trace who was using it at 2 am on that street?

American taxpayers footing the bill because DC government is incompetent.

Feds should put an income tax surcharge on every DC resident making more than $150k. They can afford to pay for this.

And NW DC car insurance rates are going up substantially thanks to DC carjacking thugs and vandals.

We need aggressive policing and prosecution - now.

There is video, it was one man on a scooter. Not even ransacking cars, just destruction and damage to create harm.

Are police working to identify the rental scooter company?

Literally NO ONE in Woodley Park is unable to afford a rate increase.

Those rich white people in Woodley Park deserve it!

This attitude is why Trump will get reelected.

Ha! Someone with Ring camera footage of the offender called in and then walked in to the 2nd District Station to offer it up. And they were rude and totally disinterested. When the city declines to prosecute anyone, the police consider it a waste of time to even go looking for offenders. Our city is broken, and f***ed.

Yeah, right. Way to drive the tax base out of the city. The top DC bracket is already 10+ percent.

You have some funny ideas. There are plenty of “normal” people in Woodley who not only are struggling to pay to replace smashed windows but also will have to figure out how to pay for an increase in insurance. This idea that everyone who lives in a “nice” neighborhood is some schmo in a $4M house is absurd. We are renters in Woodley with two kids and one old car we park on the street. We are concerned. When the rich tax payers in our and neighboring hoods leave because they’ve had enough, when families who can barely afford rent and food finally realize it’s not worth it because the hood isn’t safe anymore, the entire city will go downhill and there will be no people left for you to hate or blame but yourself.
