    At lunch I watched this lady on a sports show saying how the Washington Redskins logo/name is racist and should be changed because they are the symbol of the US Capitol. Then three hours later I go to pick up my car at the repair shop and then this comes on. I am not sure what world she's living in but apparently I don't live there.

    I'm sure it is the safest city in the world - for certain definitions of "safe", "city" and "world".

    Apparently, Marion Barry isn't the only DC politician that's been smoking crack...

    DC is the pit of Hell

    From: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/0...n_3936584.html

    There have been 10 separate shootings in Washington, D.C., since the night of Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2013, not counting the rampage at the Navy Yard on Monday morning, police told The Huffington Post over the phone. The number reflects only those shootings to which police responded.

    Those 10 shootings left two dead and an additional 13 wounded.

    Metropolitan Police Department spokesman Chris Kelly told HuffPost no arrests have been made in any of those shootings. Police have not identified suspects in several of the incidents, including both homicides, Kelly said.

    The shootings did not capture the attention of the national news media. Even among many local outlets, most of the shootings were ignored.

    Five separate shootings occurred between 10 p.m. Thursday night and 8 a.m. Friday morning in various neighborhoods across the city. One of the incidents occurred on 14th St. Northwest, a popular area full of bars and restaurants, but most were in lower-income areas.

    Last year, Washington's murder rate was 13.91 murders per 100,000 people, according to calculations made by D.C. Homicide Watch, a community reporting project that aims to cover every murder in the city. Homicide Watch points out that this is the eighth-highest murder rate per capita among U.S. cities with populations greater than 500,000. In early January, Washington Mayor Vincent Gray said there were only 88 murders in the city in 2012, which officials boasted was a "historic low."

    Still, 88 murders per year equates roughly to a Navy Yard-sized tragedy about every two months.

    At press time, the death toll of the Navy Yard massacre was at least 13 people, including the alleged shooter.

    Guy probably means safest city provided you have millions of dollars, live in one of the posh gates communities, your kids go to one of the privileged schools with armed private security, and you yourself have private security round the clock.

    I'm just surprised the Huffington Post actually reported those stats. They should do one about Chicago.

    There's proof positive that anyone with dementia can indeed server in public office.

    Where are the fact checkers on this one?
