Yea it is, assuming a bike is stolen because a black kid is riding it is certainly gross.

I love how there's no attrition to that stat, just 'police say' and now suddenly ya'll willing to believe everything the BPD says....
Also the OP said 'most' and 29% is not 'most'.

> A large majority of the dirt bikes you see being illegally driven around the city are stolen.
So is there any actual stats on this or is it just one of those assumptions that's made because of 'who' is ridding the bikes?

PBS has a documentary about this called Muskrat Lovely that came out in the mid 2000s but it doesn't seem to be online anywhere.

Gawd damn! This is some Nextdoor level of petty complaining just to complain.
This is the kind of post I'd expect on the DC sub or on a HOA message board.

Fire departments also routinely do this to flush the lines to prevent buildup.

It pisses me off that the developers have had the thing since 2016 and just kinda refuse to actually you know, develop it.

>Comments about the “the transient nature” of apartment living are revealing, as is the exclusionary notion of trains and apartments bringing “riffraff” from the city
Ahh stay classy suburbanites stay classy.
Also that area is fucking filled with apartments already, but I guess the 'right' kind of people live in those...

No because I have never taken to this strange crabs in a bucket mindset that is so prevalent in this country of spending my time becoming enraged at some lowly fucker for getting something I didn't think they deserved. Also I didn't grow up here.

Nice timing, just yesterday I was thinking about how disappointing the cuban sandwiches in this city are.

Reply to comment by maynardftw in MPD Officer often fed information to Proud Boys leader by oxidadapanda
And let's face it, there's a lot of rural bigots moving to DC the last few years too. Hell just yesterday I saw a fellow on Subredditdrama saying some racist shit and when I checked his post history it was mostly PoliticalCompassMemes, NOVA and this sub. Talks about how the 'confederacy did nothing wrong' and how they used to live in a rural area and how 'feminism ruined everything' when posting on PCM but in this sub he's very 'non-controversial' 'law and order' (wink wink) and gets the upvotes for that.

> I think because of them there is a better chance of this being for everyone.
No, as I said in my original post > right to repair will finally be addressed... for farmers only because of 'identity politics'. They're the 'real Americans' and only 'they deserve it', rest of us are gonna get the shaft once farmers can repair their equipment.

Yea I understand the issue farmers are having with this, I'm just saying only farmers are going to get the right to repair and the rest of us are gonna be told to pound sand.

Good step but ... why just '"farmers", we all need this?
I've been saying since this started the right to repair will finally be addressed... for farmers only because of 'identity politics'. They're the 'real Americans' and only 'they deserve it', rest of us are gonna get the shaft once farmers can repair their equipment. Farmers have the political push, and press sympathy (and they deserve it) but they won't give two shits about anyone else and neither will their politicians or associations once they get theirs. I got the feeling the press coverage and political will for right to repair will die as soon as famers can repair their equipment while they laugh at those 'city people' not being able to fix our computers or electric cars.

Funny how the FOP suddenly doesn't have any power when the problem comes from inside the force but will go on the warpath if the citizens make trouble for them.

I love how most of your problems have nothing to do with the crab cakes. Like you're so wrapped up in automotive and age identity politics you can't even enjoy food.

>They literally DONT have the things in my list.

Veggies- Garden Produce
Fish- Cho's Sea Garden and Faidley's Seafood
Meat and Poultry- Buffalo Bill's II and Brookdale Farms Poultry
Blacksmiths is southern cooking, not quite soul food but probably close, and I'll bet Buffalo Bill's II or Trinacria has a deli counter. The only things missing from your list are Thai and Chinese but we got Nepali Fusion, West African and Jamaican.
At this point you're just bitching to bitch.
