Big problem with DC’s 911 system!

Two D.C. firefighters were arrested within a three-day span, just another hit to the already beleaguered department. Adding insult to injury, residents of a southeast neighborhood say that a critically injured stabbing victim was left bleeding for more than 40 minutes while waiting for an ambulance.

Is This Fair Mayor Bowser?

To top that, food trucks are given special parking privileges on city streets by way of Emergency No Parking signs, (permit # PA10168232), posted by the DCRA Vending Program. The signs state that the reason is a “City Event”. City event, from 12/1/14 to 5/29/15, yeah right! Way to go DC, screw tax paying citizens again because they don’t count right? We can’t wait to hear what the Mayor has to say about this… Tell us what you think?
