Horrifying. So was the execution style shooting of the man picking his wife up from work.

We were talking about moving out of DC but now have expanded that to leaving the DMV.

NoVA and MoCo have weak prosecutors and Allen style legislation, along with restorative justice. In the 90s, moving to VA or MD was a way to get much better QOL and much greater safety. I think they are following DC in some very unfortunate ways. [/quote]

This is true. I know in VA both Fairfax County and Alexandria City voted for new progressive Commonwealth Attorneys over veteran prosecutors. They were in the news quite a bit until DC crime skyrocketed. However, I think you can still escape most of the crime problems by moving to VA since the area is more beholden to business than activists (DC). If businesses were moving out of VA due to crime you could be sure there would be swift changes being made as well as statewide consequences for Democrats running for office.[/quote]
