Bump for another checkpoint going up, this one a little closer to me.

Not surprising, as the Distrikt has a rich history of violating citizens' rights in the name of preventing crime. I have no reason to visit that area, but I expect there will be a few people testing the police response with lawsuits already drawn up just waiting to be filed if they slip up, and that's just fine by me. The more the collective ignorance of the mayor, city council, and police dept leadership is exposed, the happier I am. Living near DC, it's like I can watch the Three Stooges just by turning on the local news. It would be funnier if they weren't so criminally incompetent.
