[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure, express concerns about the shelter.  Get the facts - the REAL facts about what type of shelter it will be.  [/quote]
If you know the "real" facts about the proposed shelters, please provide a link.  Everything I can find says that except for the Ward 2 shelter, they're NOT women's shelters, and although the Bowser team likes to emphasize how they will help families, nothing indicates the shelters will be limited to families. Also, I've seen some mention from Bowser about how there will be "good neighbor" agreements, but nothing with any specificity to show how the government will ensure these shelters and their residents will remain good neighbors.  From what I've read, many of the existing DC shelter residents do not seem like good neighbors.  Happy to be proven wrong, but you need to bring more facts to the table, and less accusations.

[quote]But many of you act as if Ward 3 should not have to help deal with any of these problems. [/quote]
Ward 3 residents pay far more to deal with these problems than most other wards, so that's an unfair criticism.  [/quote]

Are you a "limousine liberal"?  I think you might be![/quote]
