Good grief.  
If these things are not already illegal, there is no wonder crime is out of control in DC.  [/quote]
Aside from the ski mask thing, the rest of it is obviously already illegal. Conspiracy and racketeering are already crimes. Drug dealing is already a crime.

There are more basic things that could be done to reduce retail theft, however they are politically unpalatable to the white progressives so the won’t be proposed, eg mandating that street vendors display valid business licenses. Conducting “random” inspections of street vendors that are selling dug store products and removing vendors who don’t have licenses. Auditing street vendors taxes, which should include providing evidence of inventory costs and suppliers.

For open air drug markets, basic vice work to conducted stated buys and arrests are obvious. While I don’t oppose “shutting down” an area for a period of time, all that will do in practice is disperse the drug dealers to other areas. They need to be arrested and prosecuted. This seems both lazy for police and intended to ensure that criminals don’t get arrested.
