[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The faux concern on this thread is nauseating. [/quote] A lot of very legitimate questions have been raised in this thread with few answers in response other than the standard "you're a NIMBY and you don't care about the poors." Maybe some don't, maybe some do but that still doesn't specifically address the concerns being raised. Some have pointed out that this could be as bad or worse of a debacle than DC General already is, some have pointed out that Bowser's concern may be faux and in fact more about developer cronies... Don't be too sure about what is or isn't faux.[/quote] Can you read?!?! Most of the faux concern/non-issues have been addressed. [/quote] You shouldn't be so rude. There at several players relying to you and not just one person as you may think. If someone feels their security is at rush, that their property value will decrease, and that their school performance will diminish, that is their opinion and are valid concerns. Stop being so judgmental!![/quote] Typos. "Several posters" and "security is at risk"[/quote] But your home values will be fine, schools will be fine, security will be fine. You are panicking for no good reason other than fear of the unknown. We have homeless shelters and housing programs throughout MoCo...including (gasp) Bethesda! Do you think home values and test scores have gone down? No. Quick question for the critics: who are you supporting in the election? Must be a republican, otherwise you are a hypocrite. [/quote] Yikes. She's back. The angry poster who does not live in DC but for some reason is telling everyone in DC how to feel and act. People have a right to their opinions regardless of whether you agree with them or not. This does not affect you so why are you on this thread attacking people who it will affect?[/quote] [b]Because I work in the homeless advocacy arena in DC and I actually know what's what.[/b] And I live less than a half mile from a housing program in MoCo and my kids ride the bus to school with "those kids." So I can assure you that you are freaking out about nothing. It will be fine...I promise. You should be proud of your mayor...she totally rocks. PS - this does affect me...because homelessness affects all of us...at least those of us who care and have dedicated our careers to finding solutions instead of bitching about our home values. [/quote] You are posting from a biased point of view. DC individuals have a right to be concerned about what they worked so hard for. [/quote]
