[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not in DC but my car was high jacked in Crystal City and driven into DC where it crashed into three cars and knocked one kid off the scooter  It was basically totaled when I found it near Lincoln Park. The Arlington said they could not even write a report about it for insurance. The DC police never responded to call to look at the car. I had the car towed to the deal in Tyson's  Corner who said it was totaled and the engine was blown because the kids drove it with the break on.  Cost to replace the car was $52,000.  Insurance paid  for $30,000 -- the blue book value.

After that I stopped contributing to any charity that helped kids in DC, including a large annual contribution to Children's Hospital.   They can rot for all I care.[/quote]

Almost all of the kids in DC did not steal your car.[/quote]

Nah, just lots of other people's cars.  Our street in an alleged good neighborhood in NW had so much crime recently that we have been told by the police not to bother reporting it. We'll move as soon as last kid finishes private school.  We work in Arlington so DC won't be necessary.  My DH had an attempted carjack in DC but he slammed the door on the kid's hand and that stopped him from driving so that my DH could open the door and pull him out.  [/quote]

Are you seriously trying to argue that most kids that live in DC are criminals?[/quote]

I did not use the word “almost all of the kids” and I did not use the term “most kids.”   I recounted experience with someone who high jacked my car in Arlington and drove it into DC and the crime in our NW DC neighborhood along with my DH having an attempted high Jack. There are a large number of kids who live in DC and commit crime.  Look at DC crime reports and crime reports from surrounding jurisdictions.  Not sure if they are all kids but many crimes are committed by DC residents.

Sort of implies that you believe all or most are criminals does it not?[/quote]
