Who in local politics can make this happen?

OP: you are a RACIST!

OP here. What did I say that was racist?

What you are proposing - arresting and imprisoning so-called criminals - will result in a higher percentage of BIPOC peoples behind bars, compared to whites.

Don’t you agree that will be, per se, racist?

Maybe Bowser should visit WV and PA to encourage them to send their meth addicts down to DC for housing. Then DC will have enough white crime to allow arresting BIPOC criminals.

This. Progressives shriek that many UMC people lIvE iN SeGrEgAtEd nEiGhBoRhOoDs because they don't want to live near black or Hispanic people. No. We don't want to live near poor people (who come in all colors). This is why I left my crappy all-white, dirt-poor town in upstate NY.

Yeah, well we’ll all be living near them soon if you’re not yet doing so. I was fine with it cuz we were poor too, and I lived in garden apartments. But I’m not fine with the rise in crime and the fact that now they live close enough to hide after they do their misdeeds.

It is hard because our church signed on to a joint letter asking CC to push through the library development, but I hate to see yet more trouble coming to that neighborhood.

Victim of your own choices. Not sorry for you at all.

Amazing how 20+ years of progress were erased overnight.

It's really hard to see. I think more people would have moved already if rates were still low, DC did get lucky there.

This broad daylight very violent crime was NOT common in the 90s and it's very unnerving.

The difference between the Maryland side and the DC side of Friendship Heights is quite startling. The Maryland side is fine. But the DC side has become very sketch. There's nothing there, except maybe Cheesecake Factory, which whoop-dee-do. And yet it seems to attract a lot of urban youth. But not the Maryland side, just a few yards away. It's a very weird neighborhood. Hopefully the food hall thing and whatever is rising from the ashes of Mazza Gallerie revitalizes things and makes it safer and more neighborhood-y

In a perfect world, the thugs that terrorized people in the Verizon store will go to prison for a long time. But It's the DC side of Friendship Heights. So we all know nothing will happen. DC is just pathetic these days.

And yes, women and girls are the lowest on the totem pole in DC..we live in fear.

DC also has a youth curfew.

It's only in a few areas and does not have very robust enforcement.

You can have all the laws you want if there is near zero enforcement.
Lol at the “strict gun laws” of DC.
Nothing happens, not even to repeat offenders.

You can’t argue with the demographics of those who commit crime in Washington DC. It is what it is.

Stop trying to punish DC youth who commit so-called crimes, and there won’t be a problem.

So when they shoot/kill each other we should shrug and go on with our day?

The Verizon Store in Friendship Heights was robbed earlier this afternoon by several gunmen, broad daylight.

This was a violent assault by teens during commuting hours.
