Mace would not work here. The kid is lucky he did not get shot.

Respecfully, this is not adding up.

This should get big coverage because its an HBCU. DC is sad. Officials wont do anything until we leave or vote them out. DC should have curfews and more cop presence 24/7. Where is the budget?

You have to come to terms with that. I would go to another school in a different state. College life is to teach you and a place to enjoy learning but there is nothing safe about Black Colleges. In DC you have a terrible Major. She is not and have not done her job for the people only for big businesses.

We walked in groups. Didn’t have cellphones. We clocked “Block Boys” and spoke to let them know we saw them. I’ve been burglarized but not robbed. Walk in groups and keep your head on a swivel.
