Maybe if someone gets jacked coming out of the Wilson building someone there would give a shit.

Remember when some Diplomat got car jacked last year? I think it was near Glover Park.

Didn't both evans and cheh get car jacked? Frumin and Nadeau bike and Allen mostly buses or walks so they are out. Guessing that T White carries, so that isn't happening and Grey can't drive.

I know Cheh left her car running and someone jumped in. Not sure about Evans but he parked like an asshole so maybe.

So why would you assume Trayvon White carries? Based on what evidence?

You’re guessing that T White carries? Why exactly? Because he’s from SE? The racism emanating from this assumption is honestly astounding. I’ve never seen this man wear anything but a suit and tie everyday and you’re on here guessing he’s carrying a gun. I bet you voted for Obama twice too eh. Real good “concerned” citizen you are.

nope, but it seems to be an open secret that he has a legit CC permit. this is mostly carried by white folks, so i'm confused at your comment. he isn't violating any law and just exercising his legal rights!

are you implying that he is illegally carrying? is that since you think he is black? stop being so racist!

edit: i think plenty of (R) lawmakers do the same in DC.

Show me the source you have that says he has a CC permit. Otherwise STFU. You and the majority of the miserable white liberals on this sub are closet racists who wonder why your black neighbors can’t stand you.

Here is an article with CM White saying he is against CC permits. https://www.wusa9.com/amp/article/news/local/dc/councilmember-trayon-white-talks-violence-in-dc/65-454702693

So you’re a non-white racist who thinks that Black people all carry guns. And somehow you really think not being white excludes you from being a racist POS.

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

I expect the legislature to author laws that reduce crime, the executive to enforce the law and the judiciary to interpret the law in the best interest of the people of DC.

Anyone voting for the new criminal code, does not give a shit about what’s happening today in DC.

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

EastoftheCap t1_j6593c1 wrote

Illegal, yes. Is there really punishment?

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

Eh, sometimes. Sometimes violent people get chance after chance and continue to steal, stab and kill. Sometimes people with long histories get to plead down from murder one to manslaughter after executing a guy in front of his kids.

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

Why would the council be involved in that case?

Pipes_of_Pan t1_j65dftf wrote

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

EastoftheCap t1_j65drbj wrote

Yes? Just because they are against the law doesn't mean that charges will be properly pursued by the judiciary. In fact, we know they won't in many, many cases.

Pipes_of_Pan t1_j65dyvt wrote

Good points. Makes me wonder why you want people working in the Wilson building to get carjacked then

EastoftheCap t1_j65ebly wrote

Is that how you interpreted by post? That I "want" some to get jacked? Seems like a stretch.
