Columbia Heights by Night

A heavily Latino neighborhood in northeast DC, it has been the focus of a number of ICE raids. 

No loitering. 

These speedy delivery services are big illegal immigrant employers, so they tend to be found where they can find drivers. 

In the weird way of DC, this extremely nice apartment complex with security is right down the street. 

I saw a lot of cops today, and tons of National Guard. National Guard are everywhere downtown, but I’ve learned that they have very restrictive orders about their weapons. I saw some getting harassed today and they didn’t make any reference to pistol or rifle, they called the police. And the police came, hardcore. They came loud and fast and from every direction but up.

I’m guessing the cops don’t want to run any hazards about the guys with the M4s losing patience. 

On the way to stalk ICE, I walked through Adams Morgan. That’s the trendy neighborhood where “Big Balls” was beaten. 

The Sandwich Guy is a local hero. A Grand Jury refused to indict him. 

“Don’t Bread on Me!”

Self-explanatory. 

There are a lot of them in the Metro.
