The fact that residents of DC have NO representation at the national level is pretty scabrous. While the vast majority of residents are Dems, I suppose in simple fairness they ought to have a say in affairs. And given the crime situation, who knows, they might well prefer something in the way of self-protection by and by.

BTW, it's pretty clear that all this is race-based.
