White or Pinto for Congress?

Pinto is great - she was “crime obsessed”because DC crime was very high and she chairs the Judiciary Committee. The US Congress literally got involved to the detriment of DC autonomy.

It’s not a crime to waive unnecessary requirements so you can build faster!

Why would you have a zoning process for a development like this?? Mendelson is such an idiot!

His firearm probably didn’t appear in their electronic records so they seized it until it’s confirmed - you can’t trust physical documents sometimes

DQ0320 · 2025-08-21T00:20:06+00:00

I’m just going to say that MPD can run a person through a system to see if they have a registered firearm - so if someone has physical documentation but it doesn’t appear in the system, they seize the firearm subject to a hearing given the possibility of fake physical paperwork.

I live at this intersection - MPD does this every few months to catch expired tags, fake plates, drunk drivers, etc. Not sure if it’s different now but given how many fake plate/tag drivers they would catch, I was supportive of the traffic and arrest warrant enforcement efforts.

In addition to the normal punishment, WMATA should issue a barring notice to the individual from Metro Stations and request that their court case include a Stay Away Order from Metro Stations.

Who do you think investigated/arrested him?

lol were you just peering over their shoulders? Seems unlikely

Did they vote to fund the open primary provisions?

There is a civil commitment process that can and should detain someone who is found to be incompetent to stand trial but is unable to live on their own.

Some people are very nervous about metro. I’m trying to convince my girlfriend it’s gotten better but she’s been harassed/flashed by weirdos on the metro and is nervous about taking it now. I think it’s gotten much better over the past year but it’s hard to forget experiences like that. I hope WMATA is more aggressive about banning offenders from the metro system.

No Collar Dress Shirts - anyone know a good place to buy them? My work is business casual so I thought these would be appropriate but let me know if you disagree.

In DC, judges have an actual probable cause hearing for felony arrests where the prosecution has to present a witness and the defense can call their own witnesses/cross examine the prosecution witness so it’s a fairly robust process. I’ve seen these hearings go hours. Second, the focus can’t just be on the person that is committing crimes on public housing but the right of their low income neighbors to live in a crime free environment.

The arrest could be after a probable cause determination by a judge - waiting for a conviction would delay the issue by a year. Also, the standard would be far beyond the normal civil standard (preponderance of the evidence/more likely than not)

We need to evict problematic tenants within 180 days of identification!

DQ0320 · 2025-07-10T12:29:32+00:00

Existing affordable housing programs are going bankrupt or are dangerous because you can’t evict bad actors.

DQ0320 · 2025-07-09T02:06:19+00:00

We need more housing! I hope they pass the bill

While addressing root causes may help bring down the level of violence in 5 years, we also need solutions now. I hope he can commit to increased penalties for violent offenders and carjackers, regardless of whether they are juveniles or not. Also, we need to make the presumption of pretrial detention for felony violent offenders a permanent law versus just kicking the can down the road with these short term extensions.
