So there are bike trails in the suburbs that police urge you to avoid because of roving bands of hooligans?


People get robbed with frequency in Georgetown and Foggy Bottom. A guy was beaten almost to death in Capitol Hill. Chandra Levy died in Rock Creek Park. Read this ticker from the crime section in the Post - plenty of degenerates in VA and MD too. http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/crime

Get over it - you're a pussy with an axe to grind about the city. If you don't want to live here, great. But what point are you trying to make exactly by starting this thread? That you are a douchebag who hates the city? Great, we get it. Now shut up already.


Amazing that such a high priced city would have such terrible crime. From a quick glance of the local news I didn't see any brutal attacks for MD (outside of PG) or VA meaning places that cost the same in MD and VA don't have these issues.


You really are a hopeless idiot. Crime has been falling in DC for YEARS, as it has in every major city. One terrible incident is not indicative of a crime wave. How does it feel to be such a moron?

I don't understand why this happens and no one does anything to target the neighborhoods where the youths are coming from.

We could raise taxes and provide free pre-schooling and better education in those neighborhoods.


been doing that for decades...

Better option stop public assistance and let the market gentrify them out. It's an embarrassment to our country this happens in the nation's capital.


+1. I'm tired of throwing good money after bad.


It happens everywhere, not just in DC. Not too happy about the gentrification. The city is becoming dull and uninteresting as a result. I agree with ending public assistance though.

Did you even read the story? Where did you come up with the idea that police are urging avoidance or that there are roving bands of hooligans? (The victim said he wasn't sure whether the other kids were trying to attack him or PULL THE GUY WHO HIT HIM AWAY.)


My friend lives in NOMA and the police have recommended people not use the bike trail.

Well in NOMA and that area houses are over 800k and rents are like 2k for a 1br, I assume at those prices people expect safety.
