Do people like you who post comments like this on DCUM not know any wealthy black people, or wealthy people of other backgrounds besides "white"? Interesting.[/quote]

Exactly. I had a wealthy Asian friend who moved his family out of the Cathedral vicinity after they built a homeless shelter ACROSS THE STREET from his townhouse. He was paying $8k per month and they build a homeless shelter. Luckily he rented so he moved and bought a mansion in McLean. It appears DC is intent on destroying itself [/quote]

It isn't a homeless shelter, it is temporary residences, and frankly it has had zero negative impact on the neighborhood.[/quote]

My car window was smashed by a juvenile resident of the temporary housing residence. My car has a dashcam and it took about ten minutes to figure out who the perpetrator was. If you are not familiar with the area, the residence is next door to Second District MPD. I took my video there and they went next door and the kid fessed up. At that point there was really nothing to do. I did not want the kid's mom and brother get kicked out of housing and certainly did not want the kid arrested, but why is there not anything shy of arrest and a criminal record. Why can't the kid go empty trash cans for DCPR for a month?[/quote]
