[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is on the Mayor - just like the crime wave in DC.

The executive branch of the District of Columbia should have addressed this manifestly unsafe flooding situation long ago.  And given their failure to do so, they should not have allowed this and other businesses to operate in an unsafe area.

This is a heartbreaking situation, and a heartbreaking failure by Mayor Bowser.[/quote]

The mayor and DC Water have yet to make a statement or acknowledge the situation, no?

Why should the mayor be making a statement on this? These are DOGS. [/quote]

First, these were beloved family members to the people who lost them. Many people rely on their dogs for emotional support. Why do you think dogs are brought into nursing homes, disaster areas, schools and hospitals? Because dogs provide therapeutic benefit and many studies support this idea.

Second, the DC government owes an explanation as to why a permit was granted to this business in a flood zone. DC government also owes an explanation for the 911 failure. DC owes and explanation as to why the tunnel project is delayed given the cost. DC taxpayers expect a functioning government. It was completely appropriate for the mayor to be there. [/quote]

Third, these people were trapped because the exit door would not open.  Human lives were very much in danger.[/quote]
