Does DC have its own police or does the military serve as police too?

They have DC police, US Park Police, Capitol Police....all kinds of em.


@mastermind:why: It's a brass band playing gogo...excuse me. If that didn't sound like Chuck Brown/old school gogo, I dunno what y'all listening to

Uptown is real bittersweet. On the one hand its safer, but on the other hand a whole lot of the character is gone. The few spots still holding on are only there cuz they've been the most successful businesses in the community. A majority white DC would be some sad shyt to see I'm disgusted at the thought, but I guess DC's loss would end up being Maryland's gain with regards to culture and added Blackness. :ehh:

DC have every type of police you can imagine, its a fed for everything. The ironic thing is you're more likely to get hemmed up by feds outside of DC.

Was just there over the weekend. Stood at the Dupont Hotel. I liked the area, its nice. But was a little disappointed with the diversity of the people. Lots of people dressed up in jcrew outfits. lots of pearl necklaces and flower dresses follwed by button up long sleeve shirts with khaki shorts. every one looks the same in that area.

Then my faith was restored as i went down towards 14th street and noticed there's a whole strip of bars and restaurants. This was on Saturday night, and i was at spot called the Park. Good lord, yo real talk, the females at that place were so bad. beautiful dark skinned and light skinned goddesses! It was upscale with a laid back feel, i couldn't explain it. I went to some spots next to Howard University - i was impressed. Overall i like DC. its my third time out there, knowing what i know now...my 4th time is going to be one for the record books!

DC native here, currently out in MD but not too far. The big thing that started to turn me off the city, and which I feel has gotten way worse in the last 15 years, is the attitude I find in so many people: obsessed with status and image, trying to seem better than what they are, always asking people who they work for and where they went to school, and with a really pretentious facade of being liberal and conscientious to cover their own greed and emptiness.

best city ever....I love this place :eddie:
PAWGS, lightskinned women, Latina's, Darkbutts (for those of you who are into that :what1: )


Nice restaurants and a good job. As a young educated black man, this place is damn near close to heaven minus South East :whoa:

The government contracts has me eating out here like crazy.

I hate being around those type of people. Bougie black people and snobby white folk are a bad combination.
