And this is all assuming nothing bad happens.
I agree, I can't believe the City Council passed that. Hello? Does anyone here remember the 68 riots? A lot of people here are just looking for an excuse to tear this city apart. IMO, the events should have been canceled. You don't need a big broo-haha to acknowledge what a momentous even this is. The bottom line is that many people in this city could care less WHO is elected - sadly, they are just looking for an opportunity to present itself. And with all the MPD officers down at the event, neighborhoods like Anacostia, Petworth, Columbia Heights, etc are going to be ripe for the picking.
