“Black” is the operative word

If it were “white,” Bowser would have the National Guard locking down DC

+1000

This is a good reminder that left wing nutjobs are ever bit as crazy as right wing nutjobs. They're just crazy in different ways.

Actually that’s pretty much the very definition of “petty”.

He didn’t hurt anyone, did he? No. He broke a few windows during a mental health crisis (where he clearly isn’t in his right mind).

Um, who's going to pay for the damages to that woman's house? People like you should be billed for it. It's the least you deserve.

That’s why you have insurance, dumbass

Bring on the petty crime then! If it’s driving these people out of the city then it’s a GOOD thing.

I live in a majority-black neighborhood in Ward 5, and the most vocal (and non-PC) about criminals in the neighborhood are often my long-time black neighbors. I'm seriously doubt they're all a bunch of Trumpers.

+1
And PG County has also recently spoken out about the violent crime there. Normal people are sick to death of this.

How horrible that you see an upside to crimes.

NP I don’t think there was ever any implied threat about R’s taking over. The point was that they cannot handle being in a vibrant and diverse city because sometimes that comes with petty crime. So if petty crime is causing them to flee then that’s a feature not a bug. No one seriously believes R’s will move in in sufficient numbers and pose a threat when it comes to elected officials. But it’s nice knowing the ones already here are fleeing.

Vibrant my a$$.

And that’s why you’re living in some exurb in VA. You’re a coward who’s scared of POC, worried someone is going to steal your hubcaps at a stoplight.

Exurbs of VA are far more diverse than Washington, particularly with a large number of African Americans who were displaced when those of your sort gentrified DC. There you have the whites cowering in Wards 3 and 6, and the "others" living out of their sight in the remaining wards. In the exurbs, every race and people from many nationalities lives quite well together. No one steals hubcaps -- we need them to get to work in DC where we screw over you city slickers with surge pricing for doing the things you are too stupid to do for yourselves.

Which Exurbs of VA are far more diverse than DC?

Lorton, Triangle Dale City, Groveton, Manassas, Ashburn, Fredericksburg.

Let's look at Manassas.

Manassas is 35% White, 11% Black, 6% Asian, 43% Hispanic for a total population of about 38,000 people.

DC is 40% White, 41% Black, 5% Asian, 11% Hispanic for a total population of about 690,000 people.

How is Manassas far more diverse than DC?

While I doubt they’re trumpers, a Venn diagram probably shows a remarkable amount of overlap on certain issues between them and trumpers. Unfortunately many older POC are opposed to LGBTVQ+ rights, support isolationist immigration laws, and favor harsh sentencing rather than rehabilitative therapies for criminal offenders. It’s very disappointing and troubling just how much in common they have.

Have you told them who they really are?

I don’t think that would be constructive. What would the point of that be?

Ummm, because by your own numbers Manassas has fewer whites and more “people of color” broadly defined?

NP. Why are you using Western math to make your point? I feel that DC is more diverse. Feelings are more important than facts.
