[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gentrification is a lazy answer and has little to nothing to do with the increase in shooting. You know what is directly attributable to the increase in shootings? DC's weird new Marijuana laws which have decriminalized it but it remains illegal. The chief and all of the police commanders keep telling us that these pop up Marijuana parties bring violence to EVERY community. They are advertised on social media and they advertise a confluence of drugs and money. Guess what follows drugs and money worldwide? Guns...and probably not the legally licensed types. [/quote] Our Police Division Commander 2D, said the same thing about pop up Marijuana parties. He said that the Homicide in Friendship Heights was related to a Marijuana pop up party and that wherever the parties go, robbery and assault often follow even if it does not reach the level of shootings. He claimed that the very nature of the parties were attractive to agitators from within and outside of the city.[/quote] this is why I was against the mushroom bill. the weird gray area ends up attracting money and guns and out-of-towners. And of course the neighborhoods bearing the brunt are not in NW DC. [/quote]
