[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]More importantly, who is supporting and protecting these criminals? How should residents help expose and prosecute them?[/quote]

Pretty much every person that lives in the DMV to greater or lesser extent.

Everyone does their part to make sure no one notices patterns, or acts upon them. Some go above and beyond and excuse the inexcusable.

You're not going to solve a problem people even refuse to identify. [/quote]

Wrong.  We notice patterns.  In my SW neighborhood, shootings keep happening in the same blocks, over and over again - and it's where there are people constantly hanging around, cars coming and going, stopped in the street.  Obvious signs of where a dealer is doing business.  But the police do nothing until there's a bad deal or beef that results in shots fired, then they run around like Keystone cops.   And the next week it's back to business as usual at that same location, and again police doing nothing.  Police has been told, council has been told, but they choose to ignore it.  It's not us citizens not seeing the patterns, it's the police.

If I'm wrong then show me where the police was specifically ordered not to go after it.[/quote]
