NoVA (Arlington, Alexandria). Now ppl are going off to further away 'burbs. There are also good # of desis in MoCo (Silver Spring) where I live now. My nabes are mainly East Asians & blacks who work for govt/own small businesses, w/ a bit of older white folks thrown in. Desis have been around a LONG time in DC area, esp.

Chicago has wards, and if you were to peruse census records, you will see many other cities divided into wards for administrative purposes. It’s not unusual for a city to be divided into wards.

I guess maybe because it is less 'Humiliate a White Person, but more, in fact, pure ignorance at play. I would have come to the defense and aid of my fellow man. I do so often East of the River. And got my car stolen as a consequence of getting involved. This article comes across a bit elitist- as if white people are the only ones assaulted in this manner by unloved teens(increasingly girls). This type of assault happens everyday to different Washingtonians no matter their race. In fact, I venture to suggest it began with the black gay teen. Difference is, it gets televised because he is white. I humbly ask you may research statistics and maybe Rethink your position on this one dear. Signed, Why not get more involved on the prevention side, instead of scraping the surface from the throne up there. dbrighthaupt That’s nice that you would have dashed away to the Attendant.

Sounds like a mental asylum. So in the suburbs you have "white flight" and in DC you have "black flight"? Interesting. What happens when desis move into a neighborhood, do both the white and black people take off? (joking) But curious..... DC neighborhoods are divided into “wards”?! Sounds like a mental asylum.
