[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]According to DC Crime Cards, there have been four crimes committed within 2,000 feet of MacArthur over the past year, an none of those crimes were violent (two theft from auto, two "other" theft). That is an increase of one crime from the previous YTD.

Wow, what a hellscape. You people need serious help.[/quote]

You do realize that crime is way under reported in the city, right?  It’s a well known fact.

Many people don’t call the police.  Even when they do, it is always necessarily recorded.  [/quote]

The crimes that the people here are whining about are of a level that they would not go unreported.

Seriously, you all should just admit you don't like seeing Black and Brown kids in your neighborhood. Just come clean.[/quote]

The racial part feels real (regarding the Palisades opposition.) also feel important to say that the angelic Banneker kids I see daily are mostly Brown and Black, too. So maybe there is another way to talk about this. [/quote]

The fact that Banneker is a selective school and they give kids a Citizenship (I think that is what it is called) grade perhaps accounts for something? here?

And Palisades is definitely whiter, but are there not white kid at Banneker? With the neighborhood more integrated and listening to DCUM, I had that impression.[/quote]

Banneker is 6 percent white this year, so about 40 kids.[/quote]
