Trying to kill dogs is not a problem?

How do you know he’s trying to kill dogs as opposed to just … eating the chicken and dropping the bones on the ground? He does seem kind of unpleasant but I don’t think he’s doing anything illegal.

Dropping the bones on the ground is littering. Urinating in a public parking lot is indecency or public exposure. Yes, I know, the trash can is too far away. CVS won't let him use the bathroom. Always an excuse.

Do yo really think DC police is going to arrest someone for loitering or peeing in public? They don’t arrest people committing assault!

Look - I get he’s been unpleasant to OP but there is nothing in what he’s done that will get him arrested.

He’s the manifestation of the boiling frog theory. Look the other way at the homeless guy pan handling, he is usually harmless. Look the other way at the kids smoking weed, in the WF parking garage, we were kids too. Look the other ways at the people jumping the metro turnstiles, it should be free anyway. And eventually you going to have gunshots in broad daylight in Tenleytown and Friendship heights.

That's just gang violence. Nothing to do with you. You are in more danger in rural America.

It does not usually start with one major felony. It starts with the smaller crimes everyone ignores: disorderly conduct, obstruction, trespass, threats, littering, animal cruelty, leaving out harmful items to injure animals, and repeated harassment.

Call every time. Document every incident. Get video when safe. Identify witnesses. Push for every charge that fits. Each arrest, citation, stay-away order, failure to appear, or probation violation builds the record.

If police consistently enforced these existing laws against repeat offenders, neighborhoods would be safer. Ignoring “minor” crimes lets the behavior escalate. Enforcing them early creates the paper trail needed to detain, restrict, prosecute, and eventually remove dangerous or disruptive people from the street.

D.C. laws that may apply:

D.C. Code § 22-1321 - Disorderly Conduct
D.C. Code § 22-1307 - Crowding, Obstructing, or Incommoding
D.C. Code § 22-407 - Threats to Do Bodily Harm
D.C. Code § 22-1810 - Threatening Injury or Property Damage
D.C. Code § 22-404 - Assault / Threatened Assault
D.C. Code § 22-1001 - Cruelty to Animals
D.C. Code § 22-3302 - Unlawful Entry / Trespassing
D.C. Municipal Regulations Title 21, Chapter 7 - Littering / Solid Waste
D.C. Code § 22-405.01 - Resisting Arrest
Court Orders - Stay-Away Orders, Release Violations, Failure to Appear, Probation Violations

Broken windows policing was proven to be a failure 25 years ago. We aren’t bringing it back.

It's true, and it starts even more broadly. People going even one mph above the speed limit are breaking the law and should have the book thrown at them like the criminals they are. Didn't fully stop behind the line at a stop sign? Have fun in court you degenerate.

Yes, let’s enforce the traffic laws too. Let’s enforce all the laws. See how easy that was?

If someone wants to enforce the laws, let's start with the president. Then go on down. Why should people be locked for throwing bones on the ground and peeing behind a dumpter, while 3 miles away POTUS is selling state secrets and ripping off taxpayers? The latter hurts me, and you, much worse.

I'm only pointing this out because a whole lot of people on this thread want the police to tackle some crime, but not all.
