Did you know in many areas it was led by LGBTQ communities? The black churches are anything but progressive (maybe you don't know the history?) And would love a return to law and order and to stop conducting so many funerals for young people. DC is a city full of contradictions, as anyone who knows the history could speak to. Since someone who declares themselves conservative can't win in this city, any moderate candidates will be undercover in some way or shape. I put Tony Williams in this category - his actual policies were no different than if he was a declared independent or a Republican. What he gave us was reasonable governance - he was a moderate "something" which was all crave. I'll judge Brook Pinto by her record, not your suspicions or classism. So far, I'm liking that she has a crime bill that is not whackadoo like Allen's. If these two represent the choices, I'll pick Brook Pinto. I'm sure black churches like that too. Fewer burials potentially, fewer commemorative t shirts, more whole families. Wish it went further.[/quote] Bet that that the bolded person above is a white liberal transplant. Brooke is the only sane member on that Council right now. We need 12 more of her. [/quote]
