HOW? Did no one see, call the police, intervene? This makes me want to vomit. I grew up here, had many late night nachos at Kramer books, dates there, and just browsing the shelves. Unlike most Kramer customers, I vote middle Democrat, independent or Republican for local politics. You all need to take a good look in the mirror for what your votes have done to our city. Who benefitted? Certainly not the folks you think you are helping, and definitely no one else. Change course. You can be a good person AND want sane policy on crime and social issues.[/quote]

People did call the police. Multiple assailants had guns and knives and were beating someone in broad daylight. What would you have people do? [/quote]

Vote differently? Vote the bums out? Vote for anyone with crime platform that isnt allenesque or with an R next to their name for city government? What do you want to do?[/quote]

Easy to say, which of the Whites would have been better on crime in the mayor's race? [/quote]

Not to be confused with the "Whites" now or formerly on the DC Council.  The "colorful" Council names -- those named Brown (Michael and Kwame), Orange (Vincent), White (Trayon and even Robert) haven't exactly been star performers on the Council.[/quote]
