Efficient for who, is the question you should ask yourself.

Or just make him punish shitty cops, like the source material.

What is it in the US where we just can't do anything efficiently or competently.
Almost every program is rife with incompetence, profiteering, and fraud.

Because the metro is more like a regional rail than a subway tbh

You'll live in your glorified closet that makes you feel horribly depressed as if you're an animal in a cage and you'll like it!

No annoying pause before the doors open in Paris.

It makes sense. Washington metro includes suburban destinations that would be part of a different commuter rail system in those other cities, like Rer in Paris.

In fact they do. And each closet has an additional bedroom within it.

Well, its disgraceful on multiple levels. Disgraceful of the developers/owners to reconfigure buildings in this shameful way. Disgraceful of DC officials to pay the money, either knowing or deliberately failing to know of the bogus reconfiguration. And disgraceful of any politicians and their voters who allow this to continue to happen.

He isn't the only one. There's video of MPD officers fistbumping Proud Boys, and looking the other way/doing nothing while Proud Boys were assaulting random people in the streets of DC, there was the incident of MPD officers heckling Fanone at the Congressional Awards ceremony where they recognized the defenders and the injured police officers.
MPD has a problem, I do not at all think Lamond was the only one, they need to do some serious house cleaning.

This is all cute, let's get cranky in the comments. How much would you all pay to keep the homeless off the streets? What is the acceptable cost of poverty?

The complex I live in is currently going through the TOPA process and the fear from older white residents that this will happen in their buildings is real.
