How can SO MANY murders happen within such a relatively small piece of land? I don't get it? Is there a lot of gang activity/criminal activity? Sorry to be an ignoramous but I genuinely want to know. You'd think that with DC being the 'seat of gov't' that things would be a bit more genteel somehow (or not).
there are a lot of socioeconomic reasons behind it. Part of it is because DC residents don't have enough control over their own city (taxation without representation) and the local government (which has little power) is corrupt (Anthony Williams = corrupt politician)
