Well, excuuuuuse me! I live close enough to DC that I see the local DC news
every night. You snipped the part about the dogs, Harry.

Again, how come I've never heard of any burglars shooting dogs, as you
suggest is so prevalent?


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.

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.

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

What is it about liberals that causes them to demur, change the subject, or
start with the personal insults when asked a specific question?

Do you honestly think someone gives a rat's ass what you think of the
Fairfax County Police? Would you hold the Prince George's County Police up
as a fine example? Hee hee!

BTW, county stickers haven't been a requirement here for quite a while.

Whoops!

You live in a scary part of Fairfax County. I don't. You think the
presence of MS13 in your 'hood will impact the price you get for your
house when you move to the confederacy?

Since I spend as little time as possible in Fairfax County these days, I
wasn't aware it had done away with the tax stickers. It seems to have
done away with quality in its schools, too.

You have a name and address to which that should be sent?


Why bother? Just buy a frame and hang it on your den wall.

My dog can't hear unless I blow a coaches whistle. I leave one hanging on
the front door knob with a note:

Dear Intruder,

We have a vicious dog which is extremely protective of this house.

Please blow the whistle loudly prior to entering the premises.

Alexandria is scary? Been to DC lately? Been anywhere in PG County lately.

Why the racist comments about the Mexican folk who live in my neighborhood?
Do you consider all Hispanics to be members of MS 13?

Why have you changed your attitude so much with regard to personal insults?
You've jumped back into the **** with both feet. Do you find it extremely
difficult to refrain from the name-calling, etc. Do you find 'personal
responsibility' (your words) such a hard thing to live with?

You did just fine! Most of us already have a place to send the certificate.

Should it be framed or unframed, that is the question.

Apparently there's a good one only about 12-15 miles away in nearby
Alexandria:

I don't find many parts of Alexandria scary, but you are quite a
distance from the better parts of that town. You're adjacent to
Springfield, and MS 13 is within walking distance of your house.

I did not say or imply the "Mexicans" who live in your 'hood were gang
members. MS-13 is active in your area. Its members are mostly of
Salvadoran descent, not Mexican descent. There also are MS-13 elements
in Maryland, but not in my 'hood.

We have the usual white boy drug manufacturers out here in ruralville.
Fortunately, the local sheriff tries hard to stay on top of the boys and
bust them out fairly frequently.
