Wow, that's a really good part of town. So sad, the thugs they let roam the streets of DC.

In fact, this is half a mile from my apartment. I caught myself thinking just the other day how safe the place is at night.

My G-d. Beaten to death for a wallet. There are some real animals out there.

Such a senseless waste.
My prayers will be with his family tonight.

Good thing he didn't have a gun. He could have really hurt or killed the perps.

Why didn't the NYT provide him protection?

Oops. Sorry. Wrong newspaper.

Regardless, this is sad and tragic.

The NYslimes will never admit that the right to bare arms gives everyone the right to defend themselves.

How about a war against our own homegrown terrorists?
I wonder if the Post will characterize the perps as

How terrible. Doesn't sound as though his areas of expertise overlapped with those of Risen and Lichtblau.
