[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For years I used to drive to DC to play league tennis at several  different locations. Now, I’m honestly too scared to even drive into some of those areas.  I cannot imagine living there and raising a family.  OP needs to drive out to the suburbs and see the difference in lifestyle.  Not perfect, but a completely different world.  Your family’s safety should be top priority, IMO.[/quote]

DCUM is just so disappointing these days. Like seriously we have to wade around in this sort of BS all of the time. So tiring. I wish you all would go off to Fairfax Underground or something. [/quote]

Seriously. These are Tea Party era R's whinging, pay no heed. They hate Bowser--they've clearly never lived in a city in their lives if they think DC gov't is mismanaged. Try living in Philly or DC or Boston! I've lived in all three--and DC is no worse than the others--actually, better in some respects. Off to the 'burbs with the whingers!

I don’t care where you lived. It’s not an interesting challenge to me. [b]But I do think you’re a bad person if you’re not bothered by violent crimes and murders in your community. [/b][/quote]

They don't care because they have options and are mostly insulated from it.

[b]It's not street-cred, it's not some sort of cool metropolitan ennui -- it's classist and selfish.[/b][/quote]
I'm 10:12 and you put it better than I did.[/quote]
