[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were in Boston visiting family last month and fid a tour  encountered no homeless no drunks or drugs and felt very safe and it was clean.

We Did a tour in DC today , and it was a night and day difference. Homeless people everywhere many were very aggressive trying to run up to our group and shouting. One pelted us with rocks when we wouldn't give him money. Some were strung out passed out in front of some nice restaurants. We also came across this right next to the police station . Wtf is going on with DC. Someone needs to crack down on the homeless in DC , these aren't nice homeless that mind their own business they are aggressive and scary. We also saw a drug deal right by the white house! Why is Boston so much nicer than DC our capital? Who is holding the mayor accountable, 99% of the problems in DC would go away if vagrancy and drug laws were enforced. We need to clean up the streets of DC like yesterday.[/quote]

If my family ever starts to get pelted with rocks, I'm going to let loose my son who is a travel ball pitcher with a wicked fast ball to throw those rocks right back.[/quote]

And then he gets shot. Good job Mom.[/quote]

If the homeless guy is throwing rocks, he doesn't have a gun does he? Not very bright are you?[/quote]

Could have both.[/quote]
Very unlikely if he is throwing rocks.
I can be armed too.
Cower if you want. You do you.[/quote]

You obviously don’t have much personal experience in public urban environments because in the real world even armed men feel on edge when dealing with other violent men. Your cockiness is a dead giveaway. Here you are thinking that there is some sort of predictable logic or code of honor or personal strength that will protect you when dealing with violent mentally ill men. Anyone with experience would go out of their way to avoid confrontation because of the inherent unpredictable nature of violence. Especially when your family is around and you have the choice to deescalate. [/quote]

If someone is literally throwing rocks at me, I'm under direct assault.
I may not have the option to "go out of my way" to avoid confrontation.
You most times do not have the option to "deescalate" with a crazy person in proximity attacking you.
I choose to defend myself and I've  taught my family the same.
Your cowardice is a dead giveaway you can't defend yourself.
Oh and you are also too dense to pick up the tongue/ cheek nature of my original post.
You can choose to cower in fear under a rock. Your choice.[/quote]
