[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's shit like this EVERY DAY that beats down those of us who live here until we just can't manage anymore. I have become a worse person during the 18 years i have lived in DC. I used to pick up litter. I used to talk to people and engage and check in with folks. I could be a bystander that intervened. At this point in my life (middle age) I am freaking OVER IT. If i see homeless people i ignore them and move on. If I see a group of teenagers I GTFO of the way. I lock my car doors incessantly. I worry every day my kids are going to be the witness of victims of a senseless act of violence perpetrated by someone "who just needs restorative justice". I would LOVE to vote for someone, anyone for public office that actually had the capacity and political motivation to DO something besides stand in front of a microphone and say the same thing over and over.[/quote] Another middle aged person here and I agree with you. For much of my life I have considered myself a liberal democrat. And I have become very cynical and beaten down by the lawlessness.[/quote] Would you consider voting for Middle ground candidates, including republicans for local government?[/quote] No.[/quote] you get what you pay for then. Enjoy your smelly, dangerous library[/quote]
