Brilliant.

She closes a road in the middle of a park, that doesn’t go from anywhere, to anywhere, and has no easy way to get to it, unless you live right next to it, so people will have a place to exercise.

What a consummate idiot. [/quote]

You are the idiot who must not know Rock Creek Park or Beach Drive which bisect some of the cities densest neighborhoods.

And RCP has been jammed with people the last month.  Where Beach Drive is closed it is fine and there is plenty of room for people to safely avoid one another.

But the lower parts of the park where it is only the 6 foot wide multi-use path is where people cannot safely avoid one another.

In any case if the road that doesn't go from anywhere to anywhere is closed (which isn't true FWIW) what the hell do you care?[/quote]
