You don't live in Washington, D.C. You live in Alexandria, Virginia, on
the cusp of Springfield. And you certainly get your share of burglaries
and violent crimes. thanks in no small part to La Mara Salvatrucha,
which is quite active in your area. If you think otherwise, just head on
over to Springfield Mall, or, closer, that Wal-Mart on South Van Dorn,
or, if you are too lazy to go there, the Safeway shopping center across
Franconia Road from you.

Glad to know your are on board to seal up the borders, stop and detain,
and deport illegal aliens.

I've never had a lot of respect for the Fairfax County Police. When I
had my office in your neighborhood, I actually witnessed a drug deal
taking place across the parking lot. I called the cops; they showed up
45 minutes later, and the police station is right down the road a bit.
The county cops seem to spend most of their time looking for cars sans
county stickers.

You are complaining about government collecting taxes.

If I lived in your neighborhood, I'd move.

I'd never live in Northern Virgina again, too much traffic 24x7x365.
