[quote=Anonymous]DC and MD have always enjoyed being basically lawless and ungoverned. Look at how people drive in MD. Look at all the quality of life crime in DC. If a jurisdiction decided that it will never enforce traffic laws, or public urination laws, or robbery laws, then people will do those things. When I lived in DC the police wouldn’t even show up unless they thought a gun was involved. It is not like that in Virginia, where people for whatever reason place a much higher value on safety and law enforcement. You can’t drive 60 mph through Arlington neighbors or urinate on storefronts in Falls Church without getting arrested and charged, so people tend not to do these things.[/quote]
