Ah yeah without that rent control if you're a new resident, the rent is insanely expensive. It's also been completely remodeled if you haven't been there recently.

Lol sure it does

Let's ask the homeless guy how much calling him unhoused has helped his situation. It's the same bullshit as "thoughts and prayers"

It’s not like he’s some high profile mobster. What information could possibly be worth that kind of leniency? Seems all too convenient considering DC’s worry about murder rates rising.

But those white working class populations were often ethnic enclaves. Look at Boston or Chicago. One of the largest mass lynchings was perpetrated against Italians in New Orleans. The Crescent City has a long history of various white ethnic groups migrating to the city - Greeks, Italians, Irish, Slavs (mostly Croats). I’m not that aware of DC’s early industrial history, but I’m not aware of the city having those kinds of ethnic population centers.

Yes, happened to me last night

Some would argue that on most men, leggings are a crime. But beyond that I'd say trying to get a guy in trouble for having a boner while fully clothed is going to be an uphill battle.

It's not softening. A home also implies a sense of community, which they may or may not have. Unhoused focuses on the fact that they need housing.

This study has numerous flaws that have been pointed out by successive researchers. https://www.jstor.org/stable/1147698

send me the video ill post it idgf, if i had a daughter i wouldnt want her to be subjected to that on the metro ( or a child of any gender for that matter)

Very cool, have been debating an EV for my next ride. Not having a driveway, more charging stations would make it an easier.

I’ve thought about that but I’m worried it would be like taking and posting a video of someone naked without their consent. Not sure where the line is drawn

I didn’t even know this was a thing. Violence interrupter? Defuq. Those people don’t seem to understand what the problem with gun is fundamentally. The nicest and with most golden heart person with a gun would still brandish it. And end someone on the spot. Loads of people are sick sick out there. And having such weapons could make them become a smoke away from doing the unthinkable.

id suggest you take a video of it next time, post to insta and twitter and tag all the metro socials

Ft Totten - gallery place. But to be fair that’s the only distance I’ve traveled with him on the train.

Metro pd asks for more info/description and that’s it.

*homeless

Softening language serves no purpose other than making yourself feel better

Ugh. No advice but what did the metro PD say? And what stops did you see him at?

You know why they changed the Bullets name right?

Thank you guys so much for giving me multiple solutions! I very much appreciate your responses. Esp after I read that other recent post about someone being followed out of that station…yikes!

I get it; it’s just that if these people actually saw it in person they would understand. You can see EVERYTHING. I’m talking outlines of veins and glans. Flexing and moving it around. Imagine a hard dick covered in tight Lycra and nothing else. Graphic I know but he is clearly an exhibitionist. Technically always clothed which is a clear attempt at plausible deniability… clearly effective for some people in this thread.

I urge every DC resident to read that article so they understand why this is happening. Young violent criminals plainly state that they keep carrying guns and committing crimes because they know there are no consequences.

I wish they’d update it with a more recent study. Here’s another article interviewing low income DC residents on how unfettered gun violence terrorizes their communities: Residents in NE Washington trapped by gunfire.

🤷my parents gave it to me

And old buildings. Old building materials will absolutely reduce signal. Like there's plenty of spots in older museums where I have no cell service if I'm in the interior of the building.

Wow these comments are incredible, guess we know who sexually harasses women on the metro
