Your hot spots map from five years ago?

"This is a hot spot map for robberies during 2007 in Washington, D.C.
The Adams Morgan-Columbia Heights area, U Street/Shaw, and Chinatown
have experienced gentrification in recent years, with homicide rates
going down."

Hey, if it keeps racist white trash like Herring out of DC...


That is really only 3 years old in statistical terms. The FBI
reporting is 2 years behind.

I doubt it really looks any different today. That map could be 30
years old and it would still look about the same.

I bet if they went out East of the Anacostia river the whole map would
be a hot spot, all the way out past the beltway.


Many parts of Anacostia are pretty grim.


Why?

About once every two weeks, I
have to drive to DC rather than take the commuter bus or the Metro, and
many times I drive along Pennsylvania Avenue into and out of the city,
right through Anacostia. I've also Metro'd in to see the Nats play, and
that goes right through Anacostia, too. Over the years, I've been on
commerical and large scale residential jobsites all over DC, including
Anacostia. I've parked in Anacostia and walked several blocks to job
sites when onsite parking wasn't available. You'd think by now I would
have seen a few reasons for those hot spots, eh?


Lucky? Other folks have seen the reason!

The only places I've been shot at in the United States have been in the
South, once in Mississippi and once in south Louisiana, and both times
the shooter was white, and the areas were rural.


They don't like tax dodgers down south.

Harry's been shot at multiple times. I wonder what the real reasons are?

You must have presented as a smaller target in those days.

So how are you doing with repaying your creditors and tax liens?

Most tourists will stay in Maryland or Virginia and hop the Metro to
get into town. The last time we were there we stayed in Old Town
(Alexandria)

Gee, that's not what the cite says......

It's an advertisement. Notice the reference to the 'backyard'. That's where folks stay - Virginia
and Maryland. It's why the Metro is so crowded whenever something is happening in DC. Folks are
coming in from MD and VA.


Most federal employees live in Md and DC too. That is why traffic is
such a nightmare. They now try to get as far away from DC as they can.
People are commuting in from as far away as Harry's neighborhood.


I think you meant to say most live in MD and 'VA' too. And you're right about Harry's area. Driving
south on Rt 4, during rush hour, is packed.


Ha... We have a road through our area that goes from town to town. When
I was a kid you might see twenty cars there in a day. Now it's not
uncommon to pass twenty cars going the opposite direction in the one
mile length I travel on... I found a map a while back from 1955, there
were about 20 streets in town, now there are over 200... In the last few
years really the traffic tieup from Hartford rush hour has made it all
the way to our exit afternoons. It's not bad but you do slow down to
about 35-45 for about a mile or two.

It is, indeed, though the traffic does keep moving pretty well, even
with the lights, until Prince Frederick, where it jams up for 10 minutes
or so between 4 and 7 pm. That's why we use the commuter bus and let the
bus driver deal with the traffic.

Even with our rush traffic, though, we're still in a much nicer area
than your overcrowded, heavily polluted, gang-and-racist-infested part
of Fairfax County.

You should pay your taxes if you are using government transportation.
It's only right.

I've been all over the south, sometimes for a couple of years at a time,
and I've never been shot at.....
