If we can't enforce existing leash laws, then what's to stop me from harassing dog owners in my neighborhood who walk their dogs off leash.

If you can walk your dog off leash, which is a violation of the law, then I can follow you around yelling at you for doing it.

See what happens when your response to someone wanting to address a problematic behavior that actually impacts other people is "too bad, move"?

Society has to have rules and we all have to live by them. It's not a pick and choose situation.


You’re clearly new to DC.

We have that too and the dog does not listen to the HOA president and will not leave you alone. It once came into my house as I was entering to escape owner.

How exactly did you grant yourself the authority to tell other adults what to do? Repeatedly??

I’m genuinely curious to know this. It fascinates me.


Lol, so if someone parked a car blocking your driveway, you would say nothing because you don't have the "authority to tell other adults what to do"?

Or if some kids were egging your house, you'd simply say nothing to them or their parents. Just let them do it. Who the heck are you?

And if someone wants to sell drugs in your neighborhood park, whatever, that's THEIR business, not yours.

Do you understand this is an issue of public safety? Or is that unclear?


Are you high, PP? Serious question.

The 975 ARMED CARJACKINGS in DC were a public safety issue, but DC refused to even chase the armed subjects.

On the rare occasion they apprehended an armed carjacking defendant, DC let them go and dropped adult criminal charges in the vast majority of cases.

Do you understand what “issue of public safety” means in DC ??


We’ve decided that some people can carjack and get away with it and others get fines for their trash cans.

Broken windows policing. Loose dogs is a sign of deterioration.

If there is an ordinance or HOA rule in place, it is definitely within bounds to tell people that they are in violation. I am SO sick of the idea that we should all stay silent as criminals and anti-socials run roughshod over community norms. No.

An "emergency police call" is used for situations requiring immediate police response, like crimes in progress, life-threatening situations, or accidents with injuries, while a "non-emergency police call" is for situations that do not require immediate action, such as reporting a minor property crime that has already occurred, a lost item, or a noise complaint




Are you important? By that I mean tied in with the Musk Administration and can disappear Federal funding to your jurisdiction? Or Musk’s people will deliver to organized crime on your demand the leash law violator’s confidential information delivered? Or better, the local authorities’ confidential information a la “The Chairman” on Walker, Texas Ranger?

Then yes, you can call your local police, explain the new reality, and the off-leash dog will be over.

If not, then you’re going to have to deal.
