Imagine moving into someone's city and then complaining about the people there before you.

You all never run out of audacity.

In DC? It appears you can! You can also commit violent crimes without repercussion!

Dc does provide housing.

As much as I feel for homeless people, it’s just not allowed to camp on public property.

By the end of the month, the NoMa underpass encampments will be disbanded with residents placed in permanent supportive housing. Thank goodness, this initiative is long overdue. Of course there are critics who are complaining that providing housing is "criminalizing" homelessness. Ridiculous. I look forward to feeling connected to the Metro station and businesses on the other side of the underpass that I've been avoiding because the walk through the encampments was so unpleasant. Hopefully this is the first of many successful steps in clearing out that tent cities that have sprouted up across the city.


You really believe DC is going to provide housing for all these people before clearing the encampments? Yeah, right. They're just going to keep pushing the people out of the way of whatever needs to be cleaned up for development.

I'd love to be pleasantly surprised.


Do you think the current situation is working well? Should we just surrender otherwise useful areas to encampments?

That guy looks 20 years older than 41. This will probably save his life.
