[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC has been poorly run (or struggling to manage around its problems) and a higher ratio of crime to its nicer satellite suburbs that have no obligations to DCs problems and operations for over a hundred years . People have done the math and left for these ever since. It is only the current crop of transplants that want their cake and eat it too that seem to think if they whine  loud enough that someone will come along an fix everything [/quote]

To be fair, DC wasn't like this before the '68 riots. It used to be a very diverse area with lots of MC and UMC people of many races. Then of course it became very bad. Things started to get better and many of us had hopes for a return to the pre-riots DC. Now things are on the downslide again and the outlook looks grim. It became untenable for us so we sold our DC home and left.[/quote]

I think your memories are clouded by the lack of care and reporting that inflicted the ghettos and alleyways before the riots. There was a reason for the riots after all. MLK was only the spark. True the compounding of the drug war didn’t do society any favors but since the dawn of time the marginalized parts of society have done marginal things.  [/quote]
