they’re not involved in any cases, in fact! Murder and carjacking are against the law

Wait until you find how much council members were involved in that case. The answer will shock you

Yep! When you’re convicted, you go to prison!

Carjacking is still very much illegal and completely punishable in the District

Mendo mentioned recently that his ex-wife was carjacked. They definitely “give a shit” but it’s bizarre that so many people on here expect legislators to fight crime rather than, y’know, LAW ENFORCEMENT

My understanding is that prosecutors want convictions, not trials, and will basically always take a guilty plea.

Curious if prosecutors could have brought more charges under the revised criminal code because he would be not only committing murder but endangering the two children? Also for having a firearm with his previous convictions? Anybody know?

I have been at events catered by Chipotle and it is fun. I would just ask around the affordable casual restaurants in the area that you like and see what they can do! It's not the food that is the big expense, it's the staff time, prep work, plates, etc, so you can probably find a middle ground where you have a big order dropped off or whatever. Also consider food trucks!

Anecdotally, I overstayed my time in a different zone recently. When I got back to my car I had no ticket but three cars had boots. They're all over the place. Seems like the city is really focusing in on boots.

As someone with friends who work with DDOT, I will remind everyone here that nearly all of the most progressive and bike-friendly ideas we talk about here, DDOT would love to do. The hard parts are managing limited resources, dealing with local lunatics threatening lawsuits, and prioritizing the work. Our DDOT is definitely an ally, not an adversary, unless you’re that dickbag in Dupont who melts down on sight of a bike

It was the same narrative around the Columbia Heights Target when it opened. Every store takes some time to figure out staffing and inventory, but you’d see comments section on Prince of Petworth implying that shopping there was like surviving a riot, which of course was absurd. A lot of it is barely coded racism.

You achieve orgasm in superior Walmart locations?

Sure, whatever. I’m sure they appreciate it though.

Sure, and I hope you will learn that going to stuff alone can be great. It’s fine to have interests that are unique to your peer group.

I’m sure the hysterical gentrifiers appreciate having you in their corner

I do enjoy the people working there, that is true

I work nearby, have been many times, and the gentrifier hysteria is ridiculous. I think it’s far weirder to pretend that this one WalMart is somehow unusable or horrible for someone who lives in the neighborhood. WalMart is what it is

Sounds like a Walmart to me

yes, I always have time to call bullshit on gentrifier hysteria

Buddy I regularly walk into the store that traumatized you like it’s nothing

Are you under the mistaken impression that WalMarts elsewhere provide a superior customer experience? It’s WalMart

bringing up this trauma must be difficult for you but I promise, you will shop at WalMart again. I'll see you there, I will probably be buying some batteries or something like the hundreds of normal people who shop there without incident every day

Dunno you seem pretty upset about this traumatizing shopping experience, I’m chill about shopping there

You new here? These complaints could be about literally any Walmart.

Will you ever recover

Oh my god. What happened
